Gathering of Light
Interspiritual Fellowship
Become Who You’re Meant to Be
Drop the Dogma and Join A New Kind of Spiritual Community where YOU are Supported on Your Own Unique Journey.
“Where is your spiritual journey calling you next?”
Explore, Connect, Grow, and Discover the LightPath that speaks to your heart.
Every member of our congregation is a Spiritual Seeker. Their intellectual curiosity, hunger for deeper communion with the Divine, and a desire to connect with fellow seekers in a meaningful, positive way started with their first visit and grew from there.
Some stay to heal from a prior hurt, disillusioned or disenfranchised—others to explore expanded concepts about God. Many desire to better relate to their fellow man through an understanding of the various faith traditions; still others are called to share their gifts and help others.

Wisdom Studies
Explore your spiritual calling
The Gathering of Light Seminary is currently enrolling a new class of interspiritual ministers.
The curriculum explores multiple facets of spirituality, world religions, counseling, and serving with compassion and integrity, all while cultivating a deeper relationship with the Divine.
At the end of our 30 month program, culminating in ordination, graduates will be able to officiate at weddings, funerals, baptisms/baby blessings and take their place as a full-fledged clergy person recognized by NYS and clerical organizations.
