Welcome to the Association for the Integration of the Whole Person (AIWP) web site! You will find information here about our community. It is made up of over a thousand ordained members in service, hundreds of local congregations and our own AIWP-sponsored university: The University for Integrative Learning. AIWP was founded over 30 years ago. We are proud of our legacy of being ahead of our time; we advance the ideal of life-long learning; we consider that the potential of human development is sacred.

We have recently updated the entire site to present a better sense of what we have to offer. AIWP was established so that people can join together in affirming their right to use their skills and knowledge for serving others. Our Ministers, dedicated to the AIWP Credo and Mission Statement, are a community of pioneers whose goal of integrating the whole person is in itself a religious commitment. We are pledged to the creation of a spiritual community and university free from dictates of church or educational orthodoxy.

Please take special note of our NEWSLETTER and the area entitled "FEATURED MINISTRY." For your convenience we have listed descriptions of the most popular pages of this website first, along with many of our other informative sections:

• The CONGREGATION DIRECTORY contains a list of many of our Ministers and their local congregations, along with links to their web sites. Each month we will showcase one of our many congregations so that visitors can discover more about who we are as a community.

• The Quarterly Newsletter (soon to become a monthly publication!) is full of special articles, some of them inspired by the questions we receive from our visitors.

• The UNIVERSITY FOR INTEGRATIVE LEARNING (UIL), is a unique and exciting educational opportunity. A 21st century "university without walls", this learner-centered program offers BA, MA and Ph.D degrees.

• Our ORDINATION SECTION extends a warm welcome to people who believe in a life of service and who find their own ideals reflected in our Credo & Mission Statement. Those interested in joining our community will find all the details here.

• The ever-changing AIWP NEWS! page will keep you up to date about our public conference calls, workshops, seminars, tele-classes, special events, regional conclaves, and media programs.

• As part of our commitment to life-long learning, we are delighted to offer a library of FREE DOWNLOADS, which have been written either by members of our community or have been submitted by them as highly recommended.

LOVE OF LIFE and people is achieved through an integrated awakening of physical, mental, spiritual and emotional processes. Life itself is a religious experience as realized in the temple of my being. I am performing a religious service when my thoughts and deeds involve an affirmation of life. My congregation is both myself and those who seek my support in striving towards an integration of the whole person. To serve others, for fee or gratuity, who seek my assistance in the pursuit of this religious experience is both my commitment and my right, free from any persecution. My service is supported by the Association for the Integration of the Whole Person in agreement of principles with the Constitution of the United States. Membership in the Association for the Integration of the Whole Person will be denied or revoked if I interfere with or injure the rights of others, perform criminal acts, or practice medicine without a license. My service, whether for fee or gratuity, is limited to the areas for which I have been qualified.

Religious: "a cause, principle, or system of beliefs held to with ardor and faith."

Spiritual: "of religion, sacred, devotional, or ecclesiastical; not lay or temporal."

The Association for the Integration of the Whole Person was founded so that spiritual persons, prepared to serve their communities, can do so in ways that assure the blessings of self-empowerment, psychologically and educationally, leading to peace for persons of goodwill.
