Beautiful wedding at The Venue at the Bluffs a few months ago!

Today, for the first time, ever, I was chastised for my reason for choosing to be an officiant/minister. I will never change my views for anyone. Love is love and that leaves no room for hate. But here's a little feedback I got. Stand up for what you believe, never be bullied for your position.

"You do NOT become a minister because of political beliefs. You become a minister to spread God's Word, help people, and better His Kingdom. Not to deliberately go against His word that is written in black and white. Yes. I blocked you from Snapchat and will block you from here because I don't support what you do and can already tell this won't end well. Wish you the best but most of all I will pray for you. Please read Romans 1:22-32. You are an abomination to the Lord for doing what you do. Praying 4 u. Goodbye."
