This is included in the requirements for marriages in Ontario. It’s a list of people who can perform (solemnize) weddings in Ontario. I am considered a person who can perform “religious” weddings but I don’t consider myself to be “religious”. I am a follower of Jesus Christ who, in my opinion, was/is one of the least “religious” people in history. I have officiated many weddings with very little “religious” content if any at all. I have been asked by some couples to not include a prayer or a sermon. I, of course, love having a prayer and a sermon but their day is about them and not me. I believe through my actions I can demonstrate that I am a disciple of Christ.

Kathy and I are getting close to 42 years of marriage in May. Words that come to mind as I reflect on our years together. Grace, patience, forgiveness. All based on a deep seated love planted years ago when we made a promise in front of family and friends. I am not the same person I was 42 years ago (thank God). I am not the same person I was 30, 20 or even 10 years ago. When you get married you have to take the long view of things with the hope that the person you are marrying will grow and mature as you grow and mature. We believe it it is God who has worked in both of us to make us the individuals and couple we are today.

Just reflecting on the people who retain me to officiate their weddings. All of the people I have had the pleasure working with are either getting married for the second time or they aren’t affiliated with a church or have a relationship with a pastor or priest.
