About Rev. Tracy When my husband and I were planning our wedding in 1995, we wanted an outdoor ceremony. The tricky part was finding someone to perform the ceremony in the place of our choice and not in a church. We looked around and there were not many to be found. We did find one minister willing to do it, and though the ceremony was nice, I wish it could've been a little better. ~~~~~ In 2004, my mother had decided to remarry. Because it wasn't her first marriage, she didn't want anything elaborate and she didn't want to be married in front of a judge in a courthouse. She wanted a quaint little ceremony in her home. I decided to see what it would take to become an ordained minister so I could perform the ceremony for her. I initially only became ordained to perform this one special ceremony, but I thought to myself that there are many couples nowadays that want a more personalized setting for their weddings, as well as more personalized vows. Many people I've known over the past fews years have searched for a minister to perform their ceremony and there just isn't that many in our area. So, I thought what better way to help other couples like my mother and her husband have the unique and personalized wedding of their dreams, but to put my ministerial duties to good use. ~~~~~ I became a minister in June of 2004. I am ordained through the Universal Life Church, a non-denominational church that embraces the essence of all religions. ~~~~~ I am able to perform ceremonies other than weddings, including baptisms, funerals, baby namings, and much more. Right now I am focusing on weddings, but if you wish to have me perform another function, feel free to call or email me so we can discuss it.
