Rev. Valerie Torphy

I found religious science in 2001 after spending many years looking for a place that taught what I believed. I was on the board of Hilltop and a dear friend suggested Autobiography of a Yogi by Paramahansa Yogananda. I began the classes with the Self Realization Fellowship and eventually found my way to what is now Centers for Spiritual Living in 2001. I took my first class that fall became licensed as a practitioner in 2004, was licensed as a minister in 2011 and ordained in 2014 with Centers for Spiritual Living.

I discovered I had a passion for Youth Ministry in Ministerial School and started the Youth & Family Ministry at the Center for Spiritual Living in Fresno . We rapidly grew from an occasional young person to a Youth Ministry of about fifteen from two to twelve and a Teen Ministry four to six. Those teens got to experience Teen Camp for the first time and to learn what how life changing it is!

I spent many years in banking beginning as a teller and moving up to Vice President learning all about finances, compliance with bank regulations, and managing multiple departments. I also spent time in the non-profit industry, on boards, and as the Executive Director of a children's museum . Center for Spiritual Living North Metro in Thornton, CO

Role of a Minister

The role of a minister is to listen to the still small voice within, to vision, and to know when to be Spirit-Guided into action and when to be still.
The role of a minister is to be straight forward, honest, truthful and centered in principle in all communications.
The role of a minister is to co-create an innovative, high-energy, deeply- conscious, creative ministry with the leadership of the church—not just a feel-good ministry—but an atmosphere for expansive spiritual growth, transformation and self-mastery in God awareness.
The role of a minister is to support the congregation’s spiritual growth in the fulfillment of their life-purpose by supporting their individual relationship with God.
The role of a minister is to comfort those who need comforting and challenge those who are spiritually stuck.
The role of a minister is to assist individuals in living their lives from higher ground by helping them view all their life experiences from a deeper spiritual perspective.
The role of a minister is to teach individuals Universal Spiritual Laws and Practices so they may embody self-generating, self-correcting, self-sustaining spiritual growth.
The role of a minister is to assist individuals in discovering the values and sacredness of giving service. When a person has the insight that we are all on this earth to express God’s creativity and abundance through our giving-ness, a revelation takes place.
The role of a minister is to be present with whomever he or she is with, knowing that there is nothing more important than the “now.”
The role of a minister is to walk the talk and to love as God loves.

Listen to the still small voice within, vision. Spirit Guided, co-create, relationship with God
