Christina Schmidt
Ordained Minister in Holbrook, New York
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I started on this path because one of my closest friends married my wife and I , and then a year later I was asked by one of our other closest friends to do the same for them. That first wedding ended up being one of the most beautiful experiences besides my own wedding, and besides loving the couple and being so happy to see two people you care about so happy, it was more than that. Instead of this being a one time thing, I felt this was a calling and realized this was something I wanted to continue to do for others as another way to spread love, as well as unite two people both legally and spiritually.

Additional Information
I was raised Roman Catholic with all of my Holy Sacraments made, but from my teen years into present I would consider myself Eclectic in my beliefs as well as Nondenominational. I personally believe in the true, loving, non judgmental teachings of Christ and incorporate that within my connections with Nature, as well as more Nature based practices such as Wicca. I believe in spreading love & light, but also believe there is NOT only one way (or religious practice) to do so :)
