Interfaith Spiritual Ministry & Counseling Services
House, Memorial and Pet Blessings
Memorial Services
When we lose a family member or friend, we want to honor their life in a way that shows love, respect and recognition of how they have contributed to the welfare of others.
Reverend Bruce will work with you to craft a personalized memorial service that invokes the divine blessings upon the departed soul to assist them on their journey to the heavenly realms and to bring comfort and peace to family and friends.
If needed, Bruce will also provide grief counseling for those who need additional support.
House Blessings
The space we live in contains vibrations that influence how we feel. When moving into a new space, the former residents leave their vibrations behind. Sometimes, those vibrations are toxic and can create negative influences on the new inhabitants. At times those negative vibrations can be felt tangibly, and other times they are subtle but no less impactful.
There are also times when one member of a family leaves and the remaining residents wish to cleanse the living space of the negativity the departing member created.
For whatever situation, Reverend Bruce Shankar will conduct a vibrational house cleansing, eliminating the negative vibes and invoking blessings upon the house or apartment for the well-being of all who live there.
"May this house be a place of happiness and health, of contentment, generosity and hope. A home of creativity and kindness. May those who visit and those who live here only know blessing and peace."
Jewish House Blessing
"Through wisdom a house is built, And by understanding it is established; By knowledge the rooms are filled. with all precious and pleasant riches."
Proverbs 24:3-4
Pet Blessings and Memorial Services
Reverend Bruce was a veterinary assistant for many years and appreciates that sometimes a pet is more like a family member than an animal.
Transition Support
When an animal family member is getting ready to pass away or your veterinarian has agreed to assist in your pet's passing, Reverend Bruce will conduct a ceremony to support your pet as he or she transitions to the next world. Participative and customized to you and your family, the Passing Ceremony will bring benefit to your animal family member and provide you the perfect way to bless your pet on its journey and say goodbye.
Pet Memorial Services
When an animal family member has passed away, Reverend Bruce is honored to conduct a memorial service to honor that family member and all of the love and joy he or she has brought into your lives.
"If having a soul means being able to feel love and loyalty and gratitude, then animals are better off than a lot of humans."
