Rev Samantha Walker
Ordained Minister in South Saint Paul, Minnesota
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I am a person of strong faith. I want to help others and bring hope through loving service to others. Being a part of others' momentous life milestones is an opportunity to bring hope and faith through love to others. I have been engaged in Ministry for about 15 years in various capacities serving unhoused, mental health, and substance abuse populations. I have also become a Death Doula in order to help people find peace in the end of life and learn how to celebrate all of life's moments.

Saint Paul, Minnesota.
What do you hope to achieve with your online ordination?
Someday, I would like to have a church. For now, I would like to celebrate life's many moments with those who seek me out.

Christianity
Additional Information
I have an understanding and have studied a few religions. Any action I take cannot be for or against any religion, except to do the right thing and live in truth.
What do you think makes your ceremonies special as a South Saint Paul, MN wedding officiant?
As a wedding officiant, my ceremonies are special because they are tailored to the people who request them. Personal beliefs, teachings, leanings, and societal undertones do not cloud the message of love that is brought into the ceremony. The only thing that matters on that day is the love that is shared between the wedding party and those that celebrate them.
Are there particular areas near you where you prefer to travel or have special experience?
Prefer to remain within a 2-hour radius of the venue or event. However, with a rental car and accommodations, I will gladly travel outside of this area to help someone with a need. Not apposed to National travel with further compensation. Compensation could be quoted higher or lower than the fee-for-service posted price depending on travel, need, complexity, duration, etc. For the last three years, I have delved into a deeper level of ministry and practiced additional aspects of spiritual ministry.
