Ministers List

Rev. Frances’ wisdom, creativity, and community engagement reflect her devotion to harnessing human potential and creating a more compassionate, peaceful, and sustainable future. Her ministry, life, and community outreach reflect her work as a teacher, author, and organizer who synthesizes spirituality, cultural understanding, social responsibility, and practical action. She discovered Ernest Holmes at twelve and was awakened to the power of the universal spiritual principles taught at CSL. Her knowledge comes from thirty-five years of spiritual leadership and ministry. Her book, Forming the Future, is a Journey that demonstrates her commitment to spirituality and community. Her creativity shows up in her love of teaching, writing, and committing to our global consciousness, including being on the board of Sister Cities and helping to create a “world that works for everyone.” She weaves collaborations among many organizations to create joy and well-being through special events and festivals. Her ministry and community work reflect a simple conviction: we are not merely witnesses to the future—we are its creators. Frances is a consummate leader, teacher, and advocate for human rights and dignity.

Rev. Dr. Linda Reppond is a mostly retired CSL minister, although she recently birthed the Landing Pad, a new ministry supporting those seeking solo deep retreats (see landingpadketron.com). She moved from Southern Oregon to Tacoma several years ago to be more present as a grandmother (nickname: GrammyBear!). While no longer working in a full-time ministry role, Dr. Linda remains a fierce advocate for young, emerging spiritual leaders: as a mentor and coach, as an honored elder at events, and one of the founders of ReGeneration, the scholarship fund for young people entering ministry. Dr. Linda was the founding minister of the Launching Pad, a dedicated young adult church in Centers for Spiritual Living. For nearly ten years, the Launching Pad, with multiple locations, as a magnet for conscious young adults who chose to live in community and be supported in deepening a personal spiritual practice and a community of peers who are living their truth and loving their lives. She is a profound teacher, leader, mentor and role model. She remains a force shaping CSL’s international movement and is here to help everyone achieve their fullest potential.

Rev. Matthews’ passion for personal expansion and awakening is the foundation of his work in ministry – professionally and in his life. His ability to connect with others through the sacredness of nature and Mother Earth comes through in the sacred forest walks he leads. Matthew is a teacher, a spiritual guide and a grounded leader who speaks from his heart, anchored in commitment, empathy, and optimism. His deep and profound connection to nature is one of his pathways to bring people together in sacred community and provide a space to awaken to their inherent magnificence and the Oneness we all share. This guides people to their purpose and inspires action and advocacy in our world. He is currently pursuing further education in the fields of consciousness, meditation and the deep connection between science and spirituality. This knowledge and skill set will expand on his offerings as a minister, teacher, and leader to help everyone he serves to walk the path of awakening.
