Crescentia
Ordained Minister in Holtwood, Pennsylvania

Lancaster, PA

The legal ability to perform ceremonies, such as weddings, to those looking for an officiant.
Religious Affiliations
Atheism, Christianity, Intelligent Design, Pentecostalism, Quakers, Spiritualism, Other
Additional Information
While those religions listed are the ones with which I am most familiar, I am happy to work with those of any faith (or absence thereof) in creating their desired ceremonies. I will talk with you directly and do outside research to base your customized ceremony on the faith practices you personally embrace.
NOTE While I will work with people of any cultural and faith backgrounds to craft individualized ceremonies, I will not knowingly participate in unethical or harmful cultural appropriation. Many cultures encourage others to borrow from their practices, while many others do not. I work to be especially mindful of these matters, and encourage you to draw from personal and/or family traditions and experiences.

I will work with you to customize your ceremony to reflect your unique needs and values.
