RoseLight Facilitator's Spiritual Journey…

I was born a Catholic in Ireland to a Catholic mother and a Church of Ireland father. My parent’s mixed marriage was not usual then (1950’s). In marrying a catholic my father had to renounce any say on his children’s religious upbringing. At 9 years, I was sent to a catholic boarding school where the students lived in a disciplined religious community. It certainly taught me how to sit in silence for hours, but did not connect me to “love” of God!

As an adult, I lived many years without expressing my spiritual beliefs. I always knew there was a God but did not how to connect to God.  I married an American in my late 20’s and we moved to the USA where I had 3 wonderful sons. After 18 years of marriage, I realised that the marriage was not serving us, and we decided to end it. It was then that I reawakened my spiritual connection. I went to someone for a reading to help make sense of my failed marriage and there I reconnected to my spirit. WHAT a difference this made to my life. From being confused, lonely, hurt and isolated, I felt loved in my awareness that I was; and in fact had always been, connected to Source.  In 2010, I moved back to live in Ireland and heard of "The RoseLight Sanctuaries" and attended the weekend workshop in Cork 2011. From that weekend, I was inspired to set up a Roselight Sanctuary.
