May you dwell in the place where the little bird’s whispers are heard in you.
My Offerings
Guest Preacher and Speaker
Guest preacher at worship gatherings and speaker within small or large group settings.
I believe that joining Scripture, theology and the healing imagination into conversation invites the opportunity for our souls to come alive and strengthens our understanding of God and who we are as “God’s beloved.”
Topics can be thematic or lectionary-based.
Spiritual Coach
Spiritual coaching that incorporates conversation, guided questions, embodied movement, and listening prayer.
Throughout our hour-long conversation, I will hold the space for you to both invite and meet the Spirit in those places and situations that you carry on your heart.
For those local, the hope is that the coaching will take place while walking or meeting at a café or quiet spot in the outdoors. But for anyone who would prefer to meet virtually, this can be done via Zoom with a little extra bit of creativity!
Why outside? To be surrounded by beauty and to breathe in the fresh air can bring a greater sense of belonging and inner safety. The very act of gentle walking can also bring mindful re-awareness and grounding to our bodies. The hope is to make it more possible to hear and receive the gifts the Spirit longs to give.
Please contact me for session pricing and more info.
Prayer Writer
Writer of corporate or personal prayers for individuals, community or family gatherings or events.
Written or photographic reflections for community publications in hard copy or digital format.
When I pray I listen for both the said and the unsaid, the needs that are on our minds but also those things we try to keep from our minds.
There is a gentle holding of the things that we are grateful for but also in the full acknowledgement of the privilege or the context that can influence our experiences. That which is received as a blessing may also be experienced as a burden, and both need to be offered to the One who hears and who holds.
Retreats and Workshop Facilitator
Facilitator of workshops and retreats, for individuals and groups, focusing on the Healing Imagination. Each event will incorporate theological and scriptural teachings, prayer, somatic healing modalities, and artistic expression.
We will work together to create an “Encounter with the Healing Imagination” as we engage with the focus for your event.
Examples of past workshops:
“Encountering the Healing Imagination through Nature”
“Encountering the Healing Imagination through the Easter Appearances”
Artist
Creating art that inspires, invites, and empowers.
My paintings explore the conversation between our inner worlds and the natural world around us. Nature speaks for itself, but sometimes, it has a message that is unique to the eye of the beholder. Painting is, for me, a form of listening prayer, and there is also opportunity to listen to the voice of the One who called all Creation into being and called it “good.”
My medium is acrylics and photography. It is available for purchase.
Please contact me for commission artwork requests.
Wedding Officiant
I have recently been licensed to officiate weddings through the “Modern Ministers Association of Canada.”
My hope is to provide a safe and welcoming space for you and your partner to share your love and commitment in a private setting or surrounded by your family and friends. I am open to officiating in a space or place that is special to you and could add to the memories of the day! Whether on a mountain top, by the ocean, or in an indoor space, it would be my honour to be a part of your big day!
Please contact me with your request.
