About Ben

There are many paths to the top of the mountain, but the view is always the same…

Chinese Proverb

My path up the mountain – my journey to the Divine – has taken a few turns over the years.

Raised in the Protestant Church, I converted to Catholicism about 30 years ago.

Over the past 10 years my belief system evolved and I was led to seek a higher form of enlightenment and service through Love.

With a deep desire to use my gifts and talents to serve others, my journey eventually led me to the Order of Melchizedek.
After a long period of study and reflection, I was Ordained as a Priest in this Order by Rev. Dan Chesbro at the Sanctuary of the Beloved Church. And I chose to focus my gifts and talents on weddings.

Why weddings? Because they represent one of the purest and closest testaments to divine love that we have as humans. So helping couples of all faiths and backgrounds express their love to each other and their community has become my passion.

I honor the commitment of love made by all couples and faith traditions, regardless of race, socioeconomic status, ethnic background, age, beliefs, gender or sexual orientation.

One of the “missions” in my service to couples on their wedding day is to help them both to “be in the moment” during the ceremony.

Will all the planning, scheduling, task lists, hustle and bustle that can add stress to your day, I consider my job to be not letting your ceremony be something you can’t remember with everything else that’s going on.

So I make every effort to help couples create and participate in a ceremony that they’ll remember long after the last dance at the reception is over. One that they will have fond memories of for years to come.
