Christian Spiritual Mentorship and Ministry Consultation.
Maria Sainz offers Christian spiritual mentorship and ministry consultation for believers, ministry leaders and teams who want to grow in identity, healing, freedom, wisdom and long-obedience maturity in Jesus.
This is not a course, a coaching program or a self-help track. It is pastoral formation — Scripture, prayer, honest conversation and practical next steps — with someone who has walked the road she teaches.
Formation for individuals, leaders and teams.
Individuals seeking spiritual formation
Believers who want to grow beyond information into formation — anchored in identity, freedom and daily obedience.
Ministry leaders
Pastors, staff and lay leaders needing a trusted outside voice for their own soul and their leadership decisions.
Prayer ministry teams
Teams stewarding healing, freedom or intercession who want deeper equipping and accountability.
Emerging leaders
Young leaders being raised up in their local church, ministry school or discipleship program.
People developing spiritual gifts
Believers stepping into prophetic, healing or deliverance gifts who want to grow with humility and wisdom.
Those seeking discipleship after ministry experiences

Leadership teams building a healing, deliverance or discipleship arm and wanting outside counsel as they design it.

What spiritual mentorship is not.
For your safety and clarity, please read this carefully before submitting an inquiry.
Maria Sainz is an ordained minister and spiritual mentor. She is not a licensed medical professional, therapist, counselor or attorney, and mentorship or ministry consultation is not:
- Medical treatment or a substitute for a doctor's care.
- Mental-health therapy or a substitute for a licensed therapist or counselor.
- Emergency counseling or crisis intervention.
- Legal, financial or professional advice.
- A guaranteed spiritual or physical outcome — God alone gives increase.
If you are in crisis or need urgent medical or mental-health care, please contact a qualified professional or, in an emergency, your local emergency services (dial 911 in the United States, or 988 for the Suicide & Crisis Lifeline).
