Event Details

One Spirit Service for women and men of all beliefs

A soulful monthly ceremony of spiritual oneness open to all faiths and none.

Rev. Fay Barratt, Rev Laura Roberts, Rev Fujo Malaika and Rev.Dr Laura Patryas warmly invite you to join them and their wonderful special guests to enjoy sacred sound, poetry, readings and the sharing of wisdom, love and light.


2 – 3.30pm, Sunday, June 15th, 2025

Join Revs Laura Roberts, Fay Barratt and Dr. Laura Patryas for a warm and welcome gathering for our June 2025 Service.

Our theme is The Sacred Journey, and through music, poetry, song and words of wisdom we will discover together the meaning of life. The labyrinth will be open for you to walk a symbolic pilgrimage along its twists and turns, leading you gently towards the centre, whilst offering an opportunity for reflection.

What is a sacred journey?

A “sacred journey” generally refers to a voyage, whether physical or metaphorical, undertaken for spiritual or religious purposes, often involving seeking a deeper connection with the divine or a transformative personal experience. It can involve pilgrimage to holy sites, personal growth and exploration, or even the journey through life itself.

The service will be enriched by the beautiful voice and music of Rev.Dr Laura Patryas.

✨ All faiths and none are welcome to this celebration of soul, symbol and sound.
