About

Rev. Natalie Rogers

I am an Interspiritual Minister and Spiritual Companion ordained through the One Spirit Learning Alliance and a Certified Life-Cycle Celebrant. Although I draw from many spiritual traditions, I align most closely with earth-based spirituality and mysticism- spiritual, but not religious.

I am passionate about creating ceremonies that are meaningful for the individuals receiving them. I believe that there are many ways we can honor the movement of our lives. Whether it’s the big moments like births, weddings, and deaths, or the milestones in between- new homes, breakups, a diagnosis, a job change, a graduation, a decision, or a change in season- I believe all moments are ripe for ceremony.

Ceremonies take us out of the everyday and move us into the sacred. They are a liminal space that mark transitions, a doorway to a new chapter in our lives. Ceremonies help us ground in love, connecting us to our hearts and to each other. They allow our communities to witness our ongoing transformation and to hold us in love during times of transition.

I am excited to work with you to create the ceremonies that resonate most deeply with your beliefs and practices.

I am based in Silver Spring, MD and am available to officiate in Maryland, Virginia, DC, Pennsylvania, and West Virginia.

What is Interspirituality?

Interspirituality recognizes and affirms all spiritual paths. It is a heart-centered approach to the sacred. Interspirituality asks “what is most sacred to you?” “What makes you feel most connected to the divine, spirit, the Creator, God, love, life, the universe, oneness, etc?” It is a million paths, all leading to the same place.

I believe that, at its best, interspirituality helps us root in the traditions of our past, while imagining new futures that recognize our interconnectedness with all things.

I believe most of us have an interspiritual approach to our spirituality- even if that’s not the language we would use.

“There is a desperate need for spirituality in our time … We require a spirituality that promotes the unity of the human family, not one that further divides us or maintains old antagonisms. At the same time, this interspiritual approach must not submerge our differences … The truth itself is big enough to include our diversity of views. They are all based on authentic inner experience, and so all are valid.”
