Welcome to National Spiritual Day
22 September
Celebrating spiritual values
Join us to celebrate what it means to be a spiritual being living in a physical body on our earth plane.
National Spiritual Day is a celebration dedicated to promoting connection, community, inclusivity, curiosity, acceptance, and a peaceful future. It serves as a day for people to come together and connect at a deeper level with family, friends, and others in their community.
National Spiritual Day is brought to you by Spiritualism New Zealand, a national body that brings together those who identify as Spiritualists and promotes an understanding of the principles of Spiritualism. Our 2026 focus, Building Spiritual Community, is about exploring the aspects of community – leading, contributing, maintaining harmony, belonging, spiritual spaces, traditions, and celebrations.
