My Ministry Services
Sacred moments held with presence, reverence, and care.
Since 2004, I have been ordained through the Universal Life Church, offering ministerial support for life’s most meaningful thresholds. My role is simple: to witness, to honor, and to hold space with clarity and compassion.
All ministerial services are offered by donation.
There is no set fee — each family gives what feels right and accessible.

A ceremony rooted in truth, presence, and the love you are choosing
Whether your wedding is intimate or expansive, traditional or unconventional, I create a ceremony that reflects your story, your values, and the energy you want to bring into your marriage.

I offer:
• Personalized blessings
• Family or sibling involvement
• Ritual elements (optional)
• A warm, gentle presence
🌼 Celebration of Life and Graveside Services
Honoring a life with dignity, tenderness, and truth
