Our Story
The TOLIS was established in 2017 by iRev. Sarah Heartsong and her partner, Karl Feret, when they founded Erosia, a Land Sanctuary in Washington State. They became the first organization of our nature-centered retreat of this spiritual association called The Tree Of Life Interfaith Sanctuary (aka TOLIS). Gathering a board, which consists of professionals who have a shared vision, they established bylaws and launched the TOLIS website.
Today, our global community continues to expand, uniting people from around the world who seek to enhance their spiritual paths and collectively serve others to further our shared mission.
We center in a statement of ethics, rather than tradition, so that we can better support our broadly diverse religious/spiritual people and groups. Currently, we meeting monthly for Building Moon calls the Monday evening on or before the building half moon. We also have 2-hour quarterly calls for our Council where we share a training for leaders and gather Energy and advice for our groups and/or personal spiritual practice, called Wisdom Circles.
Looking forward to the future we see a time when we will have more members who work together to help their local and wider communities to come together and get stronger both personally and with the naturecentric groups we both lead and support.
