Janet Elaine Burke

I became an ordained minister because I love talking to people about getting married…or help console them to prepare for a funeral…or to celebrate with them upon baptism. I want to hear what is important to them and help plan for the good times & the sad. I also wanted to assist those that do not have a church and have no idea how to find their way in marriage, baptism & death. I have a wonderful book of options for the ceremony. Scripture, prayers, general readings fitting for weddings, funerals and baptisms. I love the Lord and I love for people to connect with God during these monumental times in their lives. To become closer to Him, to embrace Him and to glorify Him! Being a messenger of God’s word is such an honor and I take it very seriously!

I was born and grew up in Caldwell, Kansas. I graduated college from Southwestern College in Winfield, Kansas, Wichita State University in Wichita and currently reside with my husband in Derby, Kansas.

Help people celebrate baptism, marriage & death.

I spent a lot of time finding my spiritual life when I was younger and I mostly gravitate to the general concepts of Christianity. I do not think God excludes people for discriminatory reasons. God is love and he wants us to love.

I focus on love. I embrace how Jesus wants us to love & care for each other. I believe that those that know that Jesus Christ was crucified & died for our sins and resurrected to save us all will celebrate eternal life in heaven. I want to help as many people as possible know the Lord, know that the Lord wants what’s best for us and I want them to have an avenue to get married, get baptized or bury someone they love with as much spiritual guidance as they need. My hope is to serve the Lord by being His messenger to his people in some small way.

Not really.

I love the counseling part…especially listening to others to provide support.
