Meg
Ordained Minister in Gooding, Idaho
About Me:
I was raised in a community Christian church in a small town in the mountains of central Idaho. I have been a member of 3 Christian denominations throughout my life. As an adult I became more solitary in my practice and non-denominational. I have studied various religions, old and new, including those of my ancestral origins. I have performed traditional and custom marriage ceremonies since becoming ordained in 2016. References available upon request and consideration. I have performed hand fasting and dedication ceremonies for over 20 years. I was performing house cleansings and blessings before I knew there was a name for it and personal cleansings and blessings for over 30 years. I have presided over pet funerals since I was a child, provided private letting go ceremonies since I was a teenager and gave my first graveside service in 1999 at the request of a family I grew up very close to. I have provided spiritual guidance for most of my life to friends, family and strangers alike, when asked or the opportunity presents itself.
Spiritual practice has been a calling as far back as I can remember, though I was raised at a time when girls were told women are not ministers unless they are married to one. I had not considered becoming ordained until my former daughter-in-law requested me to do so in order to perform her wedding ceremony. I have performed weddings and ceremonial unions since, all through word-of-mouth referral or at the request of an attendee from a previous ceremony I have performed. All services are custom tailored to the recipient's preferences, with the exception of cleansings and blessings. Those are custom tailored based on the situation and agreed to by the recipient and/or requestor prior to performing service.
I do not charge a fee for my services. Donations are accepted, but not requested or expected. I believe weddings are expensive enough. I believe Funerals are hardship enough and the debt incurred, if not insured, seem unending. I believe someone in need of a personal or house cleansing and blessing has enough problems already without adding a bill to their burdens. Depending on the distance traveled and the materials and supplies requested and/or needed, reimbursement of expenses or lodging may be needed. The amount would be discussed prior to any agreement or acceptance of the request.
This is the closest I have ever come to any form of announcing my available services. My spiritual work and services provided to those in need have all been through referral from people I have performed services for or provided assistance to. If you have come across this, there is a reason for it. That is for you to decide. You may reach out to me through text at 208-295-2699. Solicitors and suspected spammers will be blocked. Lastly, I do reserve the right to refuse service.
