Universal Life Church Monastery
The Universal Life Church Monastery strongly believes in the rights of all people from all faiths to practice their religious beliefs, regardless of what those beliefs are, be they Christian, Jew, Gentile, Agnostic, Atheist, Buddhist, Shinto, Pagan, Wiccan, Druid or even Dignity Catholics; so long as they do not infringe upon the rights of others and are within the law of the land and one’s conscience.
We ordain ministers, priests, rabbis and clergy worldwide who are totally non-religious or even anti-religious. This may seem contradictory, but we are looking to change the negative perceptions of religion, faith and spirituality, by encouraging people to take control, stand up and speak truth to power by fearlessly stating their personal religious beliefs.

Madonna Ministry
We Understand Divine Will to be the masculine and Divine Grace to be the feminine. Christ is the manifestation of the Triune God. Spirit expressed as mind and body, is Undifferentiated Spirit in form, the Absolute in the material, the Infinite in the finite. God is All - in All - As all.
We Understand that the individual soul awakened, recognizes and utilizes the Life Force in a creative, constructive way and is cooperating with Divine impulsion through the synthesis of involution expressed as evolution.
We Understand that Cosmic Grace is the Divine Feminine often referred to as the Holy Spirit, the Holy Comforter exemplified by the Holy Madonna, who nurtures and stimulates the creative expression by impregnating the seed of the Father (will) in the fertile substance of the Mother (cosmic grace) resulting in the form, the formidable Christ.
We Understand that Love is the synthesizing Life Force that recognizes Unity in diversity, and awakens the Christ consciousness to the infinite good in humanity. Love is the way and the threshold to Good will (God-Will), right relationships, peace, creativity, fulfillment, infinite joy and boundless truth. Love possesses nothing and provides everything.
