Rev. Ingrid L. Scott, C.E.O of Bryant Un-Limited, Interspiritual Minister and Celebrant, Founder of CBD Interfaith Ministry and CBD Charitable Trust, Inspirational Speaker. Ingrid is the CEO of Bryant Un-Limited, a manufacturing company employing over 40 staff and celebrating more than 30 years in the broadcast industry, specializing in Fiber Optic cables and Bespoke metal work. Ingrid owned Composition by Design, a shop which specialized in angels and spirituality with style, offering angel readings, healing, and monthly inspirational talks called, “Reminder Sessions,” closing her shop after 8 years upon her enrollment in the One Spirit Interfaith Seminary.

Ingrid’s recognition that One Spirit was a home for her soul motivated her to fly each month from the United Kingdom to attend seminary in person. Since her ordination, Ingrid has officiated at weddings in the South of France, Spain and England and has established a weekly prayer ministry, offered live when she’s in the country and pre-recorded when she’s out. She believes in the power of affirmative prayer for empowering one’s life, and attributes affirmative prayer as being the reason for her success, coupled with the ability to give fearlessly and abundantly.

Ingrid is most proud of the Charitable Trust she has founded in the support of women, children, education, and the environment, that lists among its many achievements a clinic it built in Uganda to support the needs of over 200,000 villagers. She divides her time between the UK where she’s still involved in her business, gives her inspirational Reminder sessions, and teaches English to refugees as a volunteer, and New York, where she’s involved with the development of a One Spirit Fellowship Community. Ingrid believes that service to man is service to God, and that she is here on earth as God’s Divine Emissary.

Sara Stoker Kendall, born and raised in Claremont, CA., was a Curator of the Whitney Museum with Nelson Rockfeller for twelve years following her graduation from Wellesley College. Sara spent considerable time living overseas as the wife of a corporate executive while raising her family of three, broadening her appreciation for art in all its many forms. Art consulting assignments and extensive travel in the Far East led her to merge her knowledge and love of art and culture with its common denominator – creativity of spirit – eventually leading to her enrollment in the One Spirit Interfaith Seminary and ordination as an Interfaith-InterSpiritual Minister in 2009, following a life changing illness.

As an Interfaith-InterSpiritual Minister, Sara is lovingly involved in her ministry of teaching and counseling – including teaching Sunday School at St Bartholomew’s Church, performing ceremonies throughout New York, Connecticut, and Fire Island, and sharing with others the use of art as witness. She finds the loveliest part of her ministry is taking her Havanese sister dogs, Ochi and Maya, (Ochun, Cuban Santeria goddess of love, and Yemaya, goddess of the Seas), both certified therapy dogs, to assisted living and Alzheimer’s units where they devotedly sit on patient’s laps and bring that unconditional love we all need to patients who are unabashedly receptive.
