MINISTRY OF WHOLENESS
An InterSpiritual approach to the nature of our times:
Elevating consciousness through harmonic healing, spiritual awakening and sacred sound healing ceremonies and rituals.
Yatzik & Elina’s Wedding, Zion Canyon Utah
I was ordained an Interfaith Minister with the New Seminary in New York City, in January 1999. As an Interfaith Minister, I honor all forms of the divine. I have been performing ritual and ceremony for almost 23 years: welcoming little ones into this world, binding two souls together in marriage, guiding and comforting family when loss presents.
However, today my Ministry of Wholeness has evolved to include my group and private sound soul journeys at the Syinthesis® Sound Healing Center in Glendale, WI. The Lotus Heart Sound Journey, an original creation, is facilitated in the spiritual artform of ceremony and ritual. It is here I wear my sound healing priestess hat, and wield the energies of minister, vibration energy and sound healer, as well as soul-centered guide.
Ceremony and ritual is not just an orderly manner of protocol, it is an open reception to honor all that has been put before us, elevate in consciousness, trust the process and respectfully allow the subtle energies of divinity to flow through us. The transmission of empowered Grace, Spirit into Matter, the Divine Mother, guides, supports and moves through us to lovingly guide us back to our innate wisdom, beauty, power and strength.
Whether I am sitting at the bedside of another in hospice, officiant of a wedding or memorial service, or facilitating a sound healing journey, it is all sacred and holy. It is my soul’s call to creatively express and guide others to heal into wholeness and awaken to one’s Truth of Being. This is the new Ministry of Wholeness, including sacred sound healing ceremonies and rituals.
Lovingly & Lightly, Rev. Lee Ann Dzelzkalns
Testimonials
“Lee Ann created a beautiful sacred sound ritual for us to gather as our friend was transitioning from her earthly body. The guided meditation and acoustic wisdom transmitted through Lee Ann provided both solace and support for those of us gathered. It is our deepest belief that through the beautiful container of sacred ritual Lee Ann created, our friend felt and knew our prayers and our gratitude were for a life extraordinarily lived.”
— Linda N. & Katie H.
"When my husband's best friend died we knew we wanted to gather our friends for a spiritual ritual. Some friends were ‘religious’, some were agnostic, and others identify as ‘spiritual’. We called Lee Ann.
The Ritual/Sound Journey that Lee Ann wove for us, not only spoke to everyone, but touched them deeply. The sound vibration soothed and opened everyone to healing, while her powerful words helped us feel his soul release.
That was the day our hearts began to heal."
— Mary Ann M.
Interspirituality
We have stepped into the Age of InterSpirituality, the Age of Synthesis. This movement is rooted in the heart-centered experience of oneness, love and an unconditional sharing, free from attachment to what was or ‘who is right’.
Interspirituality defines the realization that there are many spiritual paths with a universal commonality embodying them, distinguishing spirituality and religion. This term was coined by Brother Wayne Teasdale, a pioneer in exploring the essence of spiritual experience in the world religions.
This way of understanding opens us up to embrace all paths and experiences as one existential evolutionary process …..Many paths, diverse and true, reach to the heights, love beyond measure, unity abounds and we walk the path in right relationship with all beings.
Conventional interfaith is a horizontal platform among religions, creeds and beliefs to encourage mutual understanding, peace and solidarity among all people. It has paved the way for us today to embody the depth of our divine direct experiences, the sanctity in the nature of all things, and the higher realization of love.
The Ministry of Wholeness teaches, guides and supports the interspiritual life. As we transform the self through compassionate action and love, we help transform the world. This is the basis of all spiritual practice.
The world is blessed in peace, love and goodwill through our inner practice and loving intention. So shall it be and help us to do our parts ~ Amen. Amin. Hum. Om. Shanti. Aho. Yes. (Rev. L A)
BIRTHS (ENTERING)
There are many ways to welcome a new soul into the world. I’ve aided parents in purification rites, naming ceremonies, and first steps on the ground ritual. However the parents want to recognize their family in the eyes of the divine, I always take special care to include the little one, speaking directly to him or her. After all, the ritual is to purify and bless the baby.
“Lee Ann created a very personal ceremony to bless and welcome our daughter into the world. She brought beauty and reverence to a special day and incorporated traditions from around the world to honor the spirit of our little one. She gave friends and family the opportunity to speak heartfelt wishes that our daughter will cherish forever. A special connection between Lee Ann and our family continues to grow out of the love that she bestowed on all who were present.”

MARRIAGES
I take special joy in performing weddings. Addressing both partner’s beliefs and traditions, my ceremonies are often an eclectic blend. I had the pleasure of marrying a couple, one Hindu and the other Irish. Afterwards family members came up to me and thanked me for being so conscientious and respectful of both sets of beliefs, but most importantly for blending both seemingly disparate elements into one cohesive, beautiful whole. And really this is what’s at the core of a wedding, the bringing together of heritages, of families, of lives.
“Lee Ann brought a spirituality to our outdoor ceremony that not only was personal, but moving to our family and friends. Two bluebirds flew above us during our ceremony, symbolizing happiness and fulfillment; that is how we feel about our wedding day. Thanks Lee Ann!”
— Jeanne & Brad Schwager
DEATHS (LEAVING)
I work with the family to help them grieve and let go of their loved one. This process is tailored to the family and the individual. I’ve performed services in restaurants that felt like a big party of honor, celebrating the life of the recently lost. But I’ve also done more somber affairs. If there is one who is about to transition, I have experience in hospice work and can minister to their needs. I help the transitioning individual move through fear, pain, and regret, so when the time comes, he or she is ready.
“Lee Ann has given our family the spiritual lift, guidance and love during the loss of two close family members. She has also officiated a wedding and two baptisms in our family. We turn to her for the joyful times, but it is her compassion and faith that was so important to us during the sorrowful times in our family. She is so much more than a spiritual officiant. LeeAnn’s genuine loving persona was evident from the first time we met her. It is who she is. We feel we have truly found a friend who was put on our path for a reason. Our life’s journey is enriched by knowing her.”
