Whether we are called to a higher level of service or just feel ready to bring mind and heart into harmony to take life’s next steps, the One Spirit Learning Alliance, in New York City, encourages attendees to attain a new understanding of their place in the world and a new way to create a life by directing a deep desire, skills and presence to humbly serve. Its heart-centered, experiential fall programming offers professional training, workshops, weekend and evening classes and public events. The Alliance reports life-altering student responses that include feeling affirmed, finding a spiritual home and hearing God’s whisper in their heart.

“Many people seek a more meaningful life. However, for many of us, traditional religious expressions and structures have failed to keep pace with a more modern relationship to spiritual life,” says Rev. Diane Berke, founder and spiritual director of One Spirit Learning Alliance. “We strive for authentic spiritual experience, greater wisdom and compassion and support for the soul’s natural growth. We also seek to make peace with ourselves and to have healthy, genuine relationships in our personal and professional lives.”
