Rev. Blanca Ibenia Aguilar

Chapel 1031 (Life is Simple Love)

United States (US), Florida (FL), Sunrise

Blanca Ibenia es la primera niña nacida en una familia numerosa, luego nacieron 14 hermanos más. Tratar con situaciones familiares fue su diario vivir, por eso cuando tuve oportunidad de estudiar sobre el comportamiento humano lo escogí como mi favorito. Conocerme realmente y conocer el ser humano ha sido la aventura de mi vida. En Honduras: En Honduras: leí cuanto libro llegara a mis manos para satisfacer mi sed de aprender, tomé Cursos Método Silva, Formando al Formador de American Management Association, 6 años en el Movimiento de Cursillos de Cristiandad en la Iglesia Católica sirviendo como Dirigente y plenamente activa en mi Reunión de Grupo llamado "Renacimiento",  Seminarios de Relaciones Humanas y Públicas de Dale Carnegie todo esto mientras trabajaba en el sistema bancario, di a luz un bello varón y tres preciosas niñas además de estar presente en la comunidad del vecindario y en la Iglesia. Al salir del banco fui Facilitadora de Cursos de Relaciones Humanas para Secretarias y Mujeres.

En New Jersey: Retiros de Meditación y Sanación en busca de La Verdad en la Escuela del Arco Iris, Ceremonias con Plantas Sagradas, viajes a las Pirámides en Honduras, México y Perú. En Florida: Practicante y Maestra del método de Sanación Reiki, adquirir conocimiento sobre Reflexologia y Sanación con Aceites Esenciales, participación en Constelaciones Familiares, formación en Kriya Yoga, Primer Nivel de Instructora de Kundalini Yoga y Yoga Radiante para niños, Yoga de Risa y Abrazos, Temazcal, "Vision Quest" en el Camino Rojo, el camino de los Nativos americanos, todo ello tuvo mayor sentido, un significado nuevo en mi corazón, en mi vida, cuando tomé las 35 clases para ser Ordenada Reverenda del Ministerio "Alliance of Divine Love".

El Ministerio Alianza de Amor Divino (en Español me dió esa oportunidad y en cada clase me sorprendía (ajá! wow!) como después de 32 años de jornada espiritual yo conocía tan poco de mi, de mi niña interna. Y esa nueva experiencia de mi misma me maravillaba.

Después de la Ordenación el 16 de enero 2010 tomé ese primer año para convertirme en Ministra viajera con el único propósito de compartir ese amor descubierto dentro de mi corazón a través de sonrisas, abrazos y abrir puertas a otras personas a esa sensación de felicidad plena dentro de mi. Era una especie de Año Sabático con paradas por casa enmedio para compartir con mis cuatro hijos, nieta y la familia.

2011 al 2013 qué aventura y satisfacción fue traducir al Español los tres libros del Ministerio ADL para abrir esa puerta ancha de oportunidad para la comunidad hispana. Luego ser mentor de esas clases hasta Ordenar a otros Seres de Luz! Gracias a mi alma por decir SI.

Tomé el Bachillerato en Divinidad. He sido miembro de la junta Directiva del capítulo del Ministerio en el Estado de la Florida por seis años.

He viajado a España, Centro y Sur America promoviendo Sanación en los campos mental, emocional, espiritual y principalmente familiar a través de conferencias, talleres, sesiones de consejeria  individuales y retiros de grupo, que incluyen oración, sonrisas y mucha risa, abrazos y muchas veces, lágrimas.

Como Notaria Pública he sido honrada al celebrar Ceremonias de Matrimonio, cada una única e irrepetible.

He sido voluntaria en el sistema escolar haciendo huertas con los niños y en mi comunidad como miembro de la Junta Directiva.

Durante mi tiempo libre me gusta leer, visitar parques públicos, ir a la playa, bailar, jugar con la maquina de coser, caminatas en la naturaleza, hacer fogatas y orar con las oraciones amarradas y compartir con la familia y las amistades; y últimamente incursionar de nuevo en el campo del amor de pareja.

Mi corazón sonrie lleno de gratitud, ha sido una linda jornada espiritual-humana.

Rev. Dr. Autymn Renée Allen (DDMS Mentor)

Chapel 1030 (The Chapel of Infinite Possibilities)

United States (US), Texas (TX), Garland

Although I was a seasoned educator and sales rep for educational publishers, my vow of service to God changed everything in 1996. My journey from ordination to today has been one of amazing transformations and experiences integrating spiritual wisdom into the physical dimensions of my life. And, with each ministerial class I offer, I grow into fuller contact with God in ways that continue to surprise.

My ministry focuses on the LIFE4 Coaching System I developed at LIFE4 Academy. LIFE4 stands for Life Integration For Enlightenment, Equanimity, Empowerment & Enjoyment, all the elements we pursue in life. My proprietary system facilitates spiritual, mental, emotional and physical transformations easily and quickly.

My new website Alliance of Divine Life is a place for exploration, study and sharing all aspects of life. I invite you to join me.

Rev. Michael Scott Allen

United States (US), Texas (TX), Garland

Born and raised in the Methodist church, I became an agnostic in high school but returned to Christianity via direct spiritual experiences in nature, meditation, healing sessions and studying different spiritual traditions and metaphysics.

As we are responsible for being the best we can be, we can optimize and integrate the spiritual, mental, emotional and physical aspects of our human existence to advance our soul growth and expand our consciousness.

I am a board-certified Radiologist with certifications in Integrative Functional Age-Management Medicine, I took a 3-year sabbatical from my medical practice to explore spiritual healing, travel to sacred sites in Peru, continental USA, Bali, England and Scotland and study different spiritual traditions. My definition of a healer is one who guides others to heal themselves.

Each one of us is on an inner journey to find our true essence, to know who we are with confidence, to be keenly aware of our purpose and to share that unique gift with the world, to spread LOVE which is so desperately needed in our world today.

Over the years I have accumulated a full body of knowledge. My traditional schooling includes training and degrees in Communicative Disorders, Child Growth and Development, Special Education, and Counseling and Guidance. Spiritual studies guided me to complete certifications in Rapid Eye Technology, (MRET), Reiki (Master), Healing Touch (HTP), Quantum Touch, Biodynamic Touch, Hawaiian Healing, Hypnosis, Inner Counseling Process, Life Skills Couching and as a Chaplin with the ADL. In May 2023, I received training as a death midwife.

Recently I have been guided to take a deep dive into Rudolf Steiner’s work to unravel the depths of the soul. I am currently completing the third year ADL doctorate program.

I have experienced a wide range of settings, working with people of all ages and stages of life. In addition to a private practice in Hawaii and Alabama, I have worked with children and their parents in home settings and classrooms, residents in assisted living, hospital settings: including neonatal intensive care units, oncology, surgical wards, psychiatric units. For my furry friends, I have used my intuitive and energetic skills with animals in animal shelters.

I have taught life skills classes, energy healing classes, mandala healing with Judith Cornell’s work, Reiki classes, and organized and ran a Reiki Free Clinic in Huntsville Alabama.

I enjoy yoga and can frequently be found walking through the woods or along the beach of the Pacific North West Sound with my chocolate Labrador Retriever Chaya.

Rev. K. Anthony Gogue

Chapel 2056 (Guiding Light Spiritual Center)

United States (US), Florida (FL), Saint Augustine

Hi, I'm Brother Tony. I spent the first 34 years of my life in the military (watching my father's career, and then entering the Army myself). Although, I'm grateful for the many countries, cultures, religions, and people I've met through the military experience, I chose to lay down weapons of destruction and harm. Instead, I utilize the greater powers of peace, love, harmony, unity, and self-empowerment - all for the Greatest Degree of Love and the highest good for all creation.

Originally raised as a Catholic, I’ve always felt this need to go beyond religion. I now serve as an interfaith minister, mixing practices of various faiths to obtain the ultimate experience that the Divine teaches me at any given moment. My primary influences are Paramahansa Yoganada, Anandamayi Ma (a.k.a. Jai Ma), and Peace Pilgrim. Additionally, I explore any other form of the Divine
shown to me in visions and dreams, so I may understand aspects I need to learn for myself and for others. Since reaching higher levels of enlightenment and consciousness, I truly see the Divine in EVERYTHING - through the oneness in ALL creation. I now use my experience in education, management, and leadership to help others to find and empower their true Selves, so they
may find Love and peace along their life path.

Welcome beloveds,

I’m Amy and it is an honor to support others on this portion of their life’s journey. My call to pursue ministerial studies with ADL came at a time in my life when I decided to look into my heart and connect with the LOVE that was always inside wanting to be remembered. My religious trauma was healed as I worked through the curriculum and shared the insights with my mentor. The experience was life changing and I look forward to supporting others on this path.

My expertise lies in leading individuals from various backgrounds towards their true selves, employing a fusion of spiritual intuition, in-depth studies, and personal experiences that traverse both the realms of the past and the future. Devoted to a life purpose centered on assisting others in their paths of self-discovery, I am committed to facilitating meaningful journeys of authentic exploration.

Rev. Estelle Thibodeau

Chapel 2086 ~ The Seventh Root

United States (US), Florida (FL), St. Augustine

It is not without divinity that we are brought into an opportunity to do what we are called to do. The first part of the journey toward realization of what one must become is found in the challenges prior to the knowledge of that trivialization we are presented with, are just as important in the process as the end result. The Greater Good encompasses not only the embrace of a new friend, the encouragement of a stranger, the gathering of like minds, the passion of extraordinary and often out of this world beliefs of fellow humans supported and celebrated; But the Greater Good also must endure with the rebuttal of a new friend, the harsh words of a stranger, adversity of unlike minds, dispassion of the ordinary, opposition and disregard.

How did it feel to not be part of this Alliance? An oddity walking the earth in search of true family, the true work of the self? And how did it come to be that crossing the path of one person (a certain Reverend who loves Roses) could open the eyes and finally validate the beauty and assets within?

Being an Alliance of Divine Love Minister is a jolly freedom in my heart, an exclamation mark, a song to sing to the world! And, while some may often wonder about this love and happiness and greater good for all things we've got going on, with a sort of dismissive wave of the hand, there are others out there that are healers of this world, walking around. It is not without Divinity that I am here. It is for these reasons that I humbly and most gratefully choose to live and teach as a Mentor of the Alliance of Divine Love and continue to my best ability this wonderful and most important endeavor.

Rev. Dr. Karen Turek, D.D.M.S., Ph.D.  (DDMS Mentor)

Chapel 1956

United States (US), Nevada (NV), Reno

My early studies of world religions and the humanities sparked a “wanting to know more vibration” that spurred my lifelong spiritual journey.

After many years of searching I found the Science of Mind philosophy and became a licensed Practitioner. I developed, and facilitated many workshops to provide tools for transformation as well as Taize services and monthly Vibrational Healing Services.

One blessed day I prayed with a lady who had recently lost her daughter. As it turned out she owned a hospice and asked me to join her Spiritual Care Team as a Chaplain!

My urge to deepen my spiritual roots continued and I was led to ADL drawn by the knowledge that LOVE is the sum of all Spiritual Laws. In 2012, I was ordained by Rev. Dr. Nancy Ash, I was conferred with my D.D.M.S in 2015 and earned my Ph.D. from New Earth Theological University in 2017.

Today, I am the Spiritual Care Coordinator and Director of Bereavement for a hospice in Reno. I am an “End of Life Educator.” perform memorial and funeral services as well as weddings, baptisms, blessings and patient specific religious and cultural rituals.
