Brieanna Leigh Archambault
Ordained Minister in Manchester, New Hampshire
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
Becoming an ordained minister wasn’t something I planned—it was something I felt called to do. Over the years, I’ve found myself deeply drawn to the sacred moments in people’s lives: births, unions, transitions, healing, and even grief. I’ve always believed that these moments deserve reverence, presence, and a voice that can hold space with love and intention.
My spiritual journey has been a winding one—part soul, part science, and entirely centered on connection. Whether through my personal healing work, the communities I’ve built, or the coaching and content I’ve shared, I’ve realized how powerful it is to bring a sense of the sacred into everyday life.
Being ordained was my way of saying “yes” to that calling—to be someone who can witness and honor love, growth, and transformation in others. It allows me to legally officiate weddings, guide spiritual ceremonies, and serve as a grounding presence in meaningful life events. But more than anything, it’s a reflection of my commitment to show up fully, with heart and spirit, wherever I’m needed most.

What do you hope to achieve with your online ordination?
At the heart of my work is a simple, sacred intention: to create spaces where people feel seen, safe, and spiritually held. I hope to help others reconnect to something greater than themselves—whether you call it God, Love, Source, or simply truth. I want to be a gentle guide for those navigating transition, a mirror for those awakening to their power, and a compassionate presence for those moving through grief, uncertainty, or change.
Through ceremony, storytelling, spiritual teaching, and intuitive care, I hope to bring reverence back into everyday life. I want to normalize healing, honor both pain and joy, and help people remember that the sacred is not somewhere far away—it’s here, in this moment, in our breath, in our becoming.
I hope to serve as a bridge: —Between the seen and unseen —Between psychological understanding and spiritual insight —Between grief and grace —Between this world and the next
Ultimately, I hope that through this work, people remember who they are: not broken, not alone, but deeply connected, wildly worthy, and already whole.

Additional Information
While I am an ordained minister, my spiritual path does not follow one traditional religious doctrine—it is rooted in a global, integrative, and deeply personal relationship with the Divine. My faith has been shaped more by experience than dogma—rising up from profound grief, sacred joy, deep study, and the quiet inner transformations that occur in the face of both mystery and pain.
I experienced a spiritual awakening that unfolded not all at once, but through waves—many of them born from trauma. These experiences taught me that the sacred isn’t only found in temples or churches—it’s found in the hospital room, in the middle of the night, in the breath that keeps going when you think it can’t. These moments cracked me open, and in those cracks, God entered—not as a punishing force, but as Love itself.
My understanding of the Divine is both archetypal and experiential. I draw from Jungian psychology, where the soul's evolution is guided by myth, symbols, and the dance between shadow and light. I believe we each carry universal archetypes—the Healer, the Mother, the Child, the Sage—and through embracing them, we come into deeper alignment with our purpose and the sacred story we are here to live.
A Course in Miracles became a foundational text on my path—a spiritual psychology that reminded me that the world we see is not the final truth, and that healing is the restoration of our mind to Love. Its teachings helped me reframe suffering, forgive deeply, and see with what the Course calls “spiritual sight”—the kind that recognizes the holiness in all things, even the broken ones.
Today, I see God not as separate from us, but as the very thread that connects us all. My ministry honors all paths to the Divine—Christian, mystical, Buddhist, earth-based, psychological, astrological, quantum, ancestral—and welcomes people of all backgrounds, beliefs, and experiences. I offer ceremony and presence, not to teach what to believe, but to remind you of what your soul already knows: that you are loved, whole, and never alone.

Additional Information
My journey to becoming an ordained minister began not in a church, but in the quiet, tender moments of life that cracked my heart open—both in grief and in love. I became an ordained minister to help bring reverence, comfort, and meaning to life’s most sacred thresholds: beginnings, endings, and everything in between.
This calling grew out of my own life experiences. I lost my first pregnancy, a moment that forever changed the way I understood loss, healing, and the invisible threads that connect us to the souls we love. Later, I walked alongside my father through a long and difficult battle with a neurological disease—bearing witness to his strength, our shared pain, and the depth of love that doesn’t die when the body does.
Yet, just as much as I’ve walked through grief, I’ve also been deeply moved by joy. Celebrating birthdays of loved ones who’ve passed on has become a way I keep their spirits alive in ritual and remembrance. Becoming a mother was another profound turning point—a rebirth of my own soul in many ways. Through that, I felt called to offer Motherhood Blessings for others too: ceremonies that honor the sacred rite of becoming, birthing, and nurturing life.
