The ULC supports people of all backgrounds and beliefs, and I was drawn to its mission of promoting universal respect and compassion. My ordination allows me to serve others in meaningful ways—whether by officiating weddings, offering support during life’s milestones, or simply being a source of encouragement and understanding in my community
