Duane Huard
Ordained Minister in LEWISTON, Maine
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
Over the past year I've taken time to ponder what I wanted to do with my ordination. The community I live in is always thriving and growing and I had an innate desire to provide ministerial services to a non denominational audience. It is a privilege to offer these to not just one denomination but to all of them, we are all children of the same universe after all.
Where are you from?
Originally born in Augusta Maine, I traveled abroad during my military career and resettled after, back in Maine in Lewiston.
What do you hope to achieve with your online ordination?
It is my hope that I can collaborate with fellow ministers about how they better serve their local communities and find similar opportunities in my area. I do want to learn about being a non denominational minister, and staying true to the belief that there are many different paths for a minister to travel and each is unique.
Religious Affiliations
Christianity, Spiritualism, Universal Life Church, Wicca, Other
What do you think makes your ceremonies special as a LEWISTON, ME wedding officiant?
Being a minister is a lifelong learning journey. I think its always best to let the wedding party decide what they have envisioned for their perfect day and incorporate blessings accordingly.
Are there particular areas near you where you prefer to travel or have special experience?
I will travel anywhere within the continental US with the understanding that travel expenses are not part of the service fee and will be adjusted according to distance.

Additional Information
I do not hold the faith of only one religion but strive to learn the faith of all religions. I can't say no to anyone requiring my services due to any denominational affiliations. The journey to spiritualism is an individual one that we all follow in our own time or don't.
