Weddings
Personalized
traditional and non-traditional wedding
ceremonies: Your
marriage is one of the most important days of your life; the day
you publicly proclaim your love for spouse and begin your walk
together through time into the Mystery of God's love. Your wedding
service should reflect your love and your personalities. I will
help you create a wedding service that is both beautiful and
personal. It's okay to celebrate that special moment in a place you
love - one that speaks to you of God. That place may be by the
ocean, or in a garden, or on top of a mountain, or in a beautiful
church or chapel. All these places are sacred spaces for your
wedding - your love makes them holy ground. Read what
people say about their experience with this ministry.
Baptisms
Baptism
Services: I am happy to welcome your child into the
Christian Family with love and warmth. The smallest group of people
that can be called a church is a family - and your home is more
sacred than the any church building. We will help you welcome your
child into the Christian Community, and develop your family's
practices of faith so that your son or daughter will grow up
knowing God as a loving parent who tenderly cares for him or
her.

Funerals
and Memorial Services
Memorial Services and Bereavement
Counseling: Death is the moment when every Christian joins
Jesus on the Cross. Loss and grief are a painful part of life, but
we also join Paul in anticipating the promise of the Lord that
death will not, ultimately, be victorious. As we grieve, we also
wait for the day when the Lord will make all things new, and wipe
every tear from our eyes in the New Earth where death will be no
more. We will help you mourn with hope in the great promise of our
faith. (The picture above
