Rev Pat Church of Patopia

Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?

So that my best friend and her mate would get off of their duffs, quit making excuses, and marry each other. They had children who were quickly becoming teenagers and they had been holding onto their marriage certificate, unused for almost 10 years! I got ordained and said okay, let's do this already, and they did it! I have been ministering ever since. I believe Love Is Love no matter what sex you maybe. I believe in peace, Harmony, and that everyone should be able to live a drama-free existence.

Your beliefs are personal to you and you are ceremonies should reflect that personality. I do my best to be all things for all people and I learn more and more with every ceremony and experience that I go through.

I am friendly, professional, and very accommodating. We will meet in order to make sure that your ceremony is uniquely you!

If you have any questions please feel free to call me.

Where are you from?

I am from the Blue Water Area of the Great State of Michigan right at the bottom of the thumb. I have also spent ten years that were amazing and educational in Atlanta Georgia. I moved to Toledo in December 2021 to be near my grandkids.

What do you hope to achieve with your online ordination?

Joining together those who truly love each other for happy unions, bringing followers to their deities in the way they wish to be brought in baptism, and sending those through the veil in the way they wish to be sent, all in a loving manner.

Additional Information

Look, I have been chasing God my whole life. It took me a long time to realize that "God" is within each and everyone of us. "God is Love" The Bible tells us that. The more you love people and the planet and our fellow inhabitants, the more "God" grows. All the religious affiliations you see on my profile, a handful, I have truly lived, American Christianity at its finest. The rest I have studied in fair depth. I have taken some of their teachings and added them to the truths that I have kept from what I kept from my Christian background, I am Christ-like but NOT Christian. I will perform Christian ceremonies because I know them well, but I will also perform ceremonies for other religious and secular thought persuasions.

What do you think makes your ceremonies special as a Toledo, OH wedding officiant?

I allow you the freedom to be as you as you wish to be. If you want to be a dinosaur, then be a dinosaur at your wedding! If you want everyone to bang drums and yodel, groovy! I LOVE variety! Poly friendly, gay friendly, and I will do pet weddings, if you want Fido and Fifi to have a little doggie wedding, my Dog Hawkeye is ordained as well through another organization (Fur real!)

Are there particular areas near you where you prefer to travel or have special experience?

During the summer months, I may go to the Roscommon Michigan area but there will be an added gas fee. Also, I am available for DJ services for smaller or outdoor venues.
