Vincent Anthony Bernhard
Ordained Minister in Nashua, New Hampshire
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I have a master of Divinity from Boston University. I know that I have been called into ministry by God and the Holy Spirit when I was very young. My ministry is to serve God and all of his people by spreading the Gospels.
Where are you from?
I was born and raised in Brooklyn, New York. I currently reside in Nashua, New Hampshire. I love New England.
What do you hope to achieve with your online ordination?
Serve God by serving his people. Christ died for our sins. My God is a God of love and peace. I truly hope to heal the many hurts caused by misinterpretations of The Holy Bible. I am open to all. Nobody has the power to separate you from the love that is God. ALL are welcome.
Religious Affiliations
Anglicanism, Catholicism, Christianity, Unitarian Universalism
Additional Information
I am sincerely very open to all people's faith. I was a Roman Catholic most of my adult life. As I discerned my calling, I wanted a more liberal theology, and this led me to the Episcopal Church. However, I will worship at any House of God.
What do you think makes your ceremonies special as a Nashua, NH wedding officiant?
Race, gender, or sexuality are non-issues for me. My only concern about divorce is that any Children from a previous marriage must be supported and loved by the parent. I would hope that the soon-to-be, married couple treats their former spouses with dignity.
Are there particular areas near you where you prefer to travel or have special experience?
I have been to many, many countries. I love Officiation outdoors in the spring and summer. I l have been to Paris, France, and worshipped at Notre Dame. I may go back this spring to worship at the repaired Notre Dame. I love working in my rose and veggie gardens. I sometimes will feel his presence there.

Additional Information
I am very liberal minded. God is love, love is God. and a small part of God resides in each of our hearts. There is no other. I believe nobody should self-select out of the love of God. Sometimes, as children, well-meaning teachers and preachers filled our young minds with things about God that were incorrect. I love letting folks understand how deeply God loves them. However, I am open to all ideas and respect people's paths.
