The ceremony was everything we could have wished for, and more. Mary's insights were truly inspired, as she tapped into our ethos. Her homily will stay with us for the rest of our married lives.
SERVICES
Mary creates a safe, sacred space in which to expand and grow. Her sensitivity and deep love made her workshop a pivotal experience for me. I came away enriched and peaceful and all the more wiser.
I knew of Mary as a courageous church and community leader, so when my beloved father died recently, we asked her to lead his memorial. Coming into our family required the capacity to hold those of us that held deep spiritual beliefs and those of us who felt science excluded all spirituality. Mary’s gracious inclusivity held the span of us, stood alongside us, saw and held each of us. At the service she represented us beautifully with her large capacity for compassion and insight. She brought the weight of her learning and presence but moved amongst us with great spiritual and psychological agility.

Spiritual care and support for people facing illness and death
Marriage preparation and weddings
I offer marriage preparation sessions, service design, and wedding ceremonies. I do not perform the legal/administrative components, but can recommend suitable people who will assist. I also offer spiritual support for end of life care and during bereavement, as well as the creation of retreats/contemplative spaces as the needs of individuals, families or organisational groups arise.
Please enquire for session/service rates, which can be negotiated.

Mary is a very resourceful, kind and caring person with a generous spirit and a joyful heart. I have come to appreciate her leadership skills in her role as Spiritual Care Team coordinator at St Luke's Hospice and her practical approach. At the same time she is able to draw on a host of sources of spirituality and wisdom from different faith traditions which makes her presence and work very welcoming and inclusive.
