Reverend Jermaine Thanos
Ordained Minister in Glendale, Arizona
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
My Decision to become ordained has been a lifelong dream because everything I do on earth is to be in reflection and in action from what our King Of Kings, Jehovah Jirah wants us to lead as I praise his holy name Thank You Jesus. My true mission and calling is to help others without the expectation of acknowledgement, something given in return or to have someone feeling like the owe me. The true feeling that I get from doing something that can turn someone's day or life in the direction they want it to go is amazing because I feel that I am living up to my expectations. We all have a story and we all fall on difficult times but we must remember that we are supposed to help and guide one another when we are off our course. GOD has been good to me and from the energy and genuineness I poor into the universe I have seen the true blessings from each action I made which came at a time when I needed it most.
Where are you from?
Born and Raised in the small mountain town of Flagstaff, Arizona and uprooted from small city life to big city living at the tender age of 13. I took some getting use to but weighed heavy on my mind because all those bonds and friendships got put on hold but then GOD came to me through someone who didn't know me who told me what I needed to hear with the resounding notion to never give up.
What do you hope to achieve with your online ordination?
My Hopes are to Spread his word, Welcome New Souls into the world, Cleanse the soul through the way of Baptism to bring forth a new way of life with belief and promise to be in his likeness. To mourn and remember those we have lost while joining two souls together who want to build and grow with each other. To spread love, peace, joy, laughter, compassion, love and acceptance to all those who are willing to embrace it while bringing those who don't know him to getting to know him and what he can do for us. To Cleanse the darkness out of those who have been infested with negative energies, to bless new moments in life with the hopes of removing energies who may find themselves trapped by leading them to the light so they can be freed from the things that they didn't allow themselves to process. To guide and nurture my people into a way of life that bring progress while building each other up in unity. To learn and grow in my own faith, strength and progression.

Additional Information
For I will not put any other GOD before the one I serve and praise everyday but with being who I am and accepting things into the world with the ability to see it in different lights, ways while finding and holding on to my own interpretations with a promise to remain non judgemental, biased with respect and admiration. Even for those who may not believe in him I will carry the hopes that one day they will see what wonders of the world they are missing out on. For those who practice with the darkness I will hold no reserved judgement but will pray that no harm may come unto them or unto anyone they may hold negative feels for or about. Life is about choice and making our own path not to force our ways of thinking, living, or behaving unto anyone else because that is not care, loyal, or a representation of who we are because despite odds we are all the same regardless of we admit or deny it we live, we die, we are reborn, we feel pain, love, hurt, happiness, lust, trust and all those other feels. We being me you and the rest of the world are loved, we you me and the rest of us matter, we me you and the rest of us all have our roles that we have been put here to fulfill. With peace love and asking of forgiveness for all of those I have wronged I wish you nothing but success and hope you live your dream and see the goals you set for yourself become accomplished.
What do you think makes your ceremonies special as a Glendale, AZ wedding officiant?
The Joy and Warmth of a unification between two persons that are really for each other in every way from the Physical to the Psychological and even to the most inner part of our beings being the Mind, The Heart and The Soul knowing that life could not and would not be possible without them in it because the Peace, Safety, ability of Being Understood with being able to effectively navigate through the thinnest and through the thickest of all storms while holding true to the values, beliefs and reasons that brought them into each others world. My Gift from GOD bless his holy name is the ability to connect with people on a whole other playing field while being able to see the inner true image with all the feels, and real ability to acknowledge things without a false sense communication and ability to relate to each other from similar experiences. The baddest thing we can do in life that will make us appear to be seen as a fraud is to say we understand something that we have not yet experienced or could be physically possible to say we walked in those shoes in the same exact steps when it comes to a matter of the man vs woman in a gender sense. Taking in account to the things that brought them together that show us that have doubt in our own abilities to find our soulmate or that one with the real life magic in action that all can see while watching the embraces shared where we are withing a world within our own world through their eyes.
Are there particular areas near you where you prefer to travel or have special experience?
Depends on the need and my availability with understanding to current situations and crisis in the global expansion of life and dimensions. My experience in guidance is when one has hit their bottom in different ways to only use the resources that are at their disposal while I vowed to become in a position with certification and all to be able to help navigate them through their difficult moments which could be related to Chronic Homelessness which I have personally lived through unofficial and officially in a county database as an single male adult and in a family shelter capacity during transitions related to loss of housing due to major underlying issues. To become a peer support, a navigator and a service connector to those who may also have Mental Health, Substance Abuse, Domestic Violence, Trauma of any type, Alcoholism or just someone who doesn't have connection with family or feelings of love and support. Through my darkest hours GOD showed me my purpose when I was at my weakest and he held me up while giving me the strength to fight and overpower my inner demons. At this points within the communities and families created on the street I have seen people find love, happiness and joy with the soul purpose to become a motivating force by seeing that anything you put to into action with belief and dedication can be possible for the next individual reform and recovery is a thing that cannot be forced while education and schooling in social work is a great resource i found that people that have got both education and real world experience are more inclined to have better chances at helping someone at their self redemption. Patience, Love, Hope, Belief while reminding them that when the time comes they will have you to help them
