Reverend Ashley Rose Alder
I am a queer-identifying minister of Healing and Spirituality who believes we each have a distinctive relationship with the Divine. I work in service to this by supporting others on their paths to higher truth. I'm an Interfaith/ Interspiritual Minister ordained by the One Spirit Interfaith Seminary in New York City. I've served passionately in ministry and the healing arts for over a decade helping others to Heal, Connect with Spirit, and recognize the Wholeness of who they are.
​
My work and calling is to support others on their journeys towards healing and cultivating a connection with the Sacred. This shows up in the form of ceremony, healing sessions, spiritual guidance, and teaching Universal Spiritual Truths.
What is Healing? Healing is when we recognize our own Inner Divinity and transcend a sense of separation by realizing our interconnectedness with all of Life.
What is the Sacred? The Sacred is simply a connection with something greater than ourselves, however we may relate on our unique spiritual paths.
​
It's my intention to create, facilitate, and revive ceremony and ritual in a way that honors and acknowledges the Sacredness of our inevitable life cycles. I also care a lot about creating spaces for spiritual gathering for queer folx, and anyone who has experienced spiritual abuse or othering in some way. As a person who identifies as a woman, I have been on a journey of healing my own body for quite some time. We live in a time when the sacred feminine and the sacred masculine are off-kilter and I know there are too many female-bodied people out there like me, who are trying to heal their wounds and learn how to express their frustration and anger in a world where they've been forced to push it down. Part of my ministry is in service to that liberation, to bringing these two energies into greater balance in the collective and in the individual. We do this with spiritual practices. We do this with ceremony and ritual. We do this with spiritual hygiene and care.
