Marian Knight Simmons
Ordained Minister in Lagrange, Georgia
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I have studied and practiced Wicca and Celtic Faery Shamanism for 30 years. I have studied astrology and natural healing practices and am also a Licensed Massage Therapist in Florida, New Mexico and with the NCBTMB. I am always interested in learning more about others path and their spiritual practices.
Where are you from?
I was born in the South Eastern United States and have lived in the North Midwest, the South West and am currently back in the South East.
What do you hope to achieve with your online ordination?
I hope to be a supportive member of my community as a Spiritual and Healing Minister. I wish to support everyone in feeling included and to be able to perform ceremonies to honor passages and initiations for the community. Blessed Be!
Religious Affiliations

Additional Information
I was raised in the Methodist church and began my personal journey as a spiritual seeker when I was 10. I began attending the Unitarian church in Cassadega, Florida when I was 20 and became interested in Spiritualism and Natural Healing. I officially began studying Wicca when I was 26 after I had graduated from The Reese Institute of Massage Therapy and became an LMT in 1996. I was part of a coven and was initiated after a formal study program of 3.5 years and remained in the coven for 10 years before I became solitary. I have continued to practice and honor my studies with ceremony and formal studies with continuing education for my professional licensure as an LMT.
What do you think makes your ceremonies special as a Lagrange, GA wedding officiant?
I have been trained in basic Wiccan ceremonial practice and I may incorporate my training in Celtic Faery Shamanism as well as anointing with sacred essential oils and elixirs for which I have also studied as part of my professional work as a Licensed Massage Therapist and as a Priestess.
Are there particular areas near you where you prefer to travel or have special experience?
Fee would be determined on travel time and necessary accommodations as well as duties assigned to me in the preparation of the ceremony. Please feel free to reach out for more information. Blessed Be!
