About Us

We are very excited to have started this community here in Nanaimo, British Columbia. We have both been on our own spiritual journey for many years and now we are honoured to have the opportunity to create spaces and opportunities for us to share, learn, and grow together. 

​

In 2022, we moved to Nanaimo from Kelowna, British Columbia where we raised 3 fantastic children. We have both enjoyed fulfilling meaningful careers and we are delighted to enter a new chapter of our lives and to embark on this ministry together. We have a shared passion for teaching and learning and growing together in community. 

​

Our vision for CSL Nanaimo is to create a community of individuals who are committed to their own spiritual journey, who care for humanity and the planet, and who believe in creating a world of kindness, inclusion, and respect. This vision forms the foundation of of the four pillars of our mission:

Our Mission is:

• to promote personal wellbeing,

• to spread kindness and hope,

• to care for humanity and the planet,

• and to facilitate spiritual development and exploration.

​

If you are looking for a place where you can be celebrated for the  divine unique individual you are; where you can join with others who are on a spiritual path; where you can help to build a better world then we hope you will join us. There are many ways to get involved. Subscribe to our newsletter and check out  what we offer.
