Joyful Passages: Celebrate Life Events

Joyful Passages: Celebrate Life Events Offering beautiful rites of passage for those who want something outside of mainstream religion (Pag I have studied numerous spiritual traditions.

I am registered clergy who offers rites of passage specially designed for your personal needs. Although I have a Christian background, I currently serve the local Neo-Pagan and non-religious community. I am knowledgeable in Buddhism, Wicca, Roman Paganism, Stregheria, and various other Pagan traditions and study philosophy. I will create a moving ceremony that will highlight your personal faith or

philosophy, while engaging those guests who may not know your path. For the non-religious, who seek to celebrate important life events with a beautiful rite of passage, I use references from philosophy and literature to add depth and meaning to the event. I consider myself a Humanist, so creating rites of passage for atheists, agnostics, humanists or other non-religious couple is something I feel very comfortable doing. I am an artist, as well, so I can also work with you to design invitations, programs, orders of service, commemorative wall certificates, or any other artistic service you may need. Will do secular weddings, handfastings, same-sex marriages, funerals, memorial services, baby-naming rites, menarche rites, and coming of age rites.

Here is a letter I sent to a client recently. I wanted to share it here, because I think it really captures the work I do as a death midwife and celebrant.

Now that Pennsylvania has made same-sex marriage legal, I will be officiating a wedding of a couple early in July. Although they made their vows many years ago and have been deeply in love and devoted partners for years, this will make it "official"... I'm blessed to be part of it...

This spring I officiated a funeral at Penn Forest Natural Burial Park. It was a lovely ceremony in a beautiful outdoor location. He are so lucky to have a green cemetery in the Pittsburgh area. This service was for a dear friend who followed the Asatru faith (Norse Pagan). The details of the service were carefully researched and incorporated into the service. Those who were not of the faith, could easily follow along using the order of service booklet that I provided. They found this helpful and appreciated learning more about their dear friend.
