Rev. Dr. Trish Hall found her spiritual home in the Science of Mind philosophy in the early 1980s. Upon walking through the doors of a Religious Science church, she immediately recognized the loving embrace of a spiritual community akin to the one she experienced as a child. This cross-cultural, inclusive community filled the gaps she had felt during her spiritual journey. From that moment, she fully embraced the teachings that unified her search for meaning into one practical, life-affirming philosophy.
Rev. Dr. Hall began taking classes and volunteering right away, leading to her licensing as a Professional Practitioner in 1991. She earned her Master of Divinity from Holmes Institute in 2000, received her Letter of Call in 2001, and completed her Doctorate in January 2024. Her scholarly and spiritual contributions include being a regular contributor to the Science of Mind Magazine.
Over the years, Rev. Dr. Hall has served Centers for Spiritual Living in numerous capacities: as a Regional Support Coordinator for 10 years, as Chair of the Lifelong Learning Committee (developing cutting-edge spiritual education), through the World Ministry of Prayer, and on the Global Services Committee.
After serving in two prior pulpits, Rev. Dr. Hall became the founding minister of the Center for Spiritual Living Metro in 2015, continuing her lifelong commitment to spiritual growth, inclusivity, and community transformation.
