Barbara

My Godfather, who has always been both a mentor and the air beneath my wings, encouraged me to become ordained after recognizing my commitment to serving future generations and my calling to be a giver of light. Trusting his wisdom, I chose to listen—and I answered that call.

From Miami, Florida, and raised in Bogota, Colombia.

I hope to witness and support the growth, integration, and joy of others as they embrace the miracle of life, while allowing God’s light to shine through me—wherever, whenever, and for whomever it is most needed.

Raised Catholic, I now practice the Japanese art of Sukyo Mahikari—the art of giving Divine Light—and study indigenous traditions that honor the sacred word in daily life. My ministry is rooted in listening, presence, and igniting the spark within each person, what I call VONK—your light, alive and shining.

What makes my ceremonies special is that they are not scripted but co-created with the participants. Through a heartfelt , concious conversation, we shape together the meaning, words, and promises that matter most to them. I serve as the listening presence and sacred witness of their experience, holding space for the moment to unfold as a living, creative, and holy act.

My ministry is about igniting your VONK—your God-given spark of light and life.
