V. Reina-Shay Broussard

Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?

Would getting married—before Jan 20, 2025—give you a sense of peace? Are you feeling concerned about changes that could occur in our country after Jan 20? If you feel the need to secure for yourself and your family the legal protections that are afforded by the institution of marriage in this country, I am willing to support you in acquiring whatever peace you might gain from such an act.

Where are you from?

Located in Houston, Texas area. (I gratefully live on Esto’k Gna & Coahuiltecan lands.)

Additional Information

I am a Licensed Unity Teacher, licensed as a Unity Credentialed Leader by Unity Worldwide Ministries (UWM), which is a New Thought ministry. Unity is for people who might call themselves spiritual but not religious. Unity inspires different ways to think about the force of love and intelligence that many people call God. Unity is inviting, inclusive, and welcoming to all. As a seminary student who will graduate and be ordained as an Interfaith/Interspiritual Minister in June 2025, I embrace the essential, universal truths that all major religions offer. Many people today consider themselves as spiritual but not religious and struggle to find a church home where they feel comfortable and accepted. I welcome couples of any or no religion who want to solemnly undertake marriage vows. We can design a ritual that honors the beliefs of you and your spouse.
