James Henry Buckley
slainte!!
ordained: 09/09/2005
I became ordained by ULC in 2005 because they said they ordained pagans,and at the time I couldn't find a coven, circle or grove.  I finally paid for a "pagan minister" title on earth day 2006.
I discovered ULC Seminary when I became internet savvy in 2008.  I like the wide selection of courses they offer in paganism (plan to enroll/take all 4 pagan courses), spirituality, and metaphysics.
That is it for now,
blessed be!!

Seminary Student Program

Rev. Brenda Plumley
I was ordained March 24, 2007
Since becoming ordained my life has taken on a lot of change. Personal growth especially.
I was interested in becoming ordained with Universal Life Church because they are what I was looking for in a church.  I am put off by most religions and beliefs but ULC is what I was looking for in that it is very diverse. Truly non-denominational.
I joined the Seminary to further my education and gain a better understanding of non-mainstream religions as well as other areas of spirituality such as chakra points, meditation, creating reality,  they also teach aspects of quantum theory. Upon making my selection for my first seminary course I was amazed by abundance of courses and interesting topics.
I officiated my first wedding in October 2010, and will officiate another in May 2011.  I have begun a healing out reach for impoverished people in my community.  Friends who also have ordained by ULC get together to utilize meditation techniques as well as working chakra point healing, Reiki, laying on of hands and prayer.  I am an artist. I create survivor art, ( art work specifically created for survivors of childhood sexual/physical abuse), so having people to perform healing on those who come to the shows, who are themselves survivors, creates a positive healing environment for my art shows.
My first seminary course was Spirit Quest.  It was an amazing experience.  Spirit Quest healed me a bit more.  I found all the information extremely helpful in my life. My friends even notice the positive change within me.
I am planning my next course for February 2011.  I know that the information in the courses offered by ULC are life empowering and I look forward to years more of learning through ULC.
Many Blessings!

Valerie McCready -- Ordained Feb. 2008
I don't really recall my original reason for becoming ordained. What I do know now, though, is this: something in me, when I see people struggling with their faith, wants to help. Regardless of whatever faith it is. I want to sit down with them, learn about what they're struggling with, and help them with it. 

Failing that, if there are irreconcilable differences between the individual and what they believe in, or if they have completely lost faith, I want to help them regain that faith - regardless if it is in what they once believed in, or something new. I just want to help them find something to hold on to, to believe in, and to be able to draw strength from and use to realize the kind of special person they are. 

I've taken classes mainly focused on pagan aspects, but I grew up in a Baptist church and have no problem learning of other religions, discussing about religion, concepts of god/divinity/spirit, etc. or any other words you want to use to describe what you believe in. I'm only prejudiced against people who don't have an open mind.

Rev. Janet Williams, Ordained 5/5/1998
I became ordained because I do not like regular churches, as they are too political for me.   I had hoped one day to start a church of my own, but have not been able to get it done, as I would need some classes and some of the equipment.       

But who knows maybe one day yet.  In the meantime I read all the things that are emailed to me and feel as though I am learning something new all the time.

Rev. Pamela Charboneau - Ordained July 2004

Universal Life Church
I originally became ordained as a “lark,” but began to take it more seriously over time. I have yet to find a church that teaches according to my beliefs, so I began to study other religious doctrines and incorporated those aspects that enhanced my own beliefs. I currently use my ordination to perform weddings, but I also continue to research and study other religions in the hopes of actively starting a church at some point.

I was ordained in the hopes of one day preaching to the hurting.  Or should I say helping them out.  I do not feel comfortable with organized religion and believe that every person should chose for them selves what to believe.  Without infringing on the rights of others.



I am currently taking Spirit Quest.

Universal Life Church

Rev. Kirk Alan Haas -- Ordained 2/11/2004

My first act as a minister was to perform the funeral service for my brother Terry in September of 2004. That is not why I became a minister, but it did change my life forever. It was the panic phone call the following March that directed my clerical course. 

A friend 'needed' to be married within the week and my wife said "sure Kirk can do that." I have gone on to set up a wedding ministry doing mostly secular weddings and am busy most weekends throughout the season. After joining the Seminary I have since started a web-church 'Peace Garden ULC' at www.peacegardenulc.org with the help of Rev. Booth from whom I received that panic phone call to do his wedding back in 2005. Funny how this world turns and how we discover our place in it. I am about halfway through my seminary courses heading toward a Masters degree in Ministry and enjoy the study very much.

Rev. Luke Bluewolf Clayton -- Ordained December 13, 2009

Universal Life Church
I have both studied and taught religious and spiritual studies for much of my life. I grew up with a strong Catholic spiritual practice, but over time became interested in comparative studies of world religions, and the underlying philosophy of religion. These days my Christian beliefs are tempered with an edge of Buddhist and Judaic Kabbalist practice, and I am open to the message of truth which lies at the inner heart of most of the worlds great faiths. 

I hold Bachelors and Masters degrees in psychology and religion, and now an honorary Doctorate in Divinity from the ULC. It had always been my intention to enter the ministry, but it was only after finding the ULC that I realized I had finally found my true spiritual home, with its message of universal love and acceptance for all. 

I am now intending to progress my studies in philosophy and metaphysics with the seminary, and to expand my ability to practice, teach and lead in my spiritual path, more effectively with each day that is given to me.

Universal Life Church

Name:  Rev. Stephanie M. Keys
Date of Ordination:  November 2009

I have been a psychic/medium since I was very young and have shared this gift for upwards of 47 years.  I am also a “ghost hunter” and aid spirits in crossing over or to find peace in their choice to remain on this plane.

 I became ordained in order to share a lifelong gift of psychic ability as well as my soul’s mission to make the world a better place and give comfort; spiritual aid; and peace and joy to those in need.

In taking the courses of Universal Life Church, I am hoping to gain knowledge and understanding along with the whys and wherefores of why things happen, I hope to understand what the purpose is of our place physically and spiritually in the world and our souls’ mission in this incarnation and utilize this knowledge in helping others in their need to find their purpose(s) in life.

Universal Life Church

Pastor Keola G.A. Downing, PhD -- Ordained Feb. 4, 1990
Aloha Amy,

I need to up date my own records too. :-) I am not sure of the date that I was ordained, so if you have that data, I will trust your dates.  If that information is gone, the best date I could remember is around 1990.

I decided to become ordained at ULC, when I first heard that it could be done over the (new to me) Internet.  I remember that the reason I was so keen on having the documentation was so that if I was asked to officiate at a marriage or a funeral, I would be re-assuring to the family or couple having the event as a real Pastor.  I have studied the ancient and modern religious philosophies for many years, and always wondered if my calling to service was just my imagination or if it was based on the will of spirit.  In truth, I know that the need for good guidance was something that was very clear to me, but people often need the re-assurance of ordination documents.  I decided to take the leap and become officially a Lay Pastor for those in need.

I never actually used the ordination very much, continuing on in service without any need for paperwork.   I am today the moderator of our Hilo Marshallese Ministry UCC, a normal United Church of Christ congregation in America.  For the Marshallese people the Pastor must be an ordained minister of the Marshall Islands Conference of the United Church of Christ.

Over time, both the Pastor of Hilo Marshallese Ministry and I realized that he had to break away from the Marshall Islands Conference, due to their lack of support for our mission here in Hawai`i.  I helped Rev. Johnson Jetton become the first Marshallese ordained Ministers to obtain standing with the Hawai`i Conference of the United Church of Christ.  Although I became a deacon, and then the moderator of the Church, I never wanted to give up my ULC standing, and have continued to serve without need to change my own ordination.

I know that those who have spent 4 years or more to become ordained in the United Church of Christ might not understand the individual and personal ordination status of those who have gone the ULC path.  I don't even mention it today, but instead serve as a strong partner with Rev. Jetton.  I was asked to become a deacon, and finally agreed to do so, and today I continue in that service.  We are partners with the United Community Church UCC located in Hilo on the Big Island of Hawai`i.  Although nobody really knows I am ordained with ULC I do serve as a strong member of that Church as well.  We are today "between" pastors at United Community Church, and on occasion I serve as a Lay Reader, and last Sunday I was asked to give the sermon. It is my joy to be able to help people who find such joy in helping our little Marshallese congregation.  Last week Rev. Jetton and I attended the 188th Aha Pae`aina (the annual meeting of the entire Hawai`i Conference of about 130 Churches) At the closing day of that conference our Hilo Marshallese Ministry was singled out for praise because of our hard work to help all the Marshallese people living on the Big Island.  I was so proud that Rev. Jetton received such a wonderful recognition.  Our Conference Minister Rev. Charles Buck told the entire group about how Rev. Jetton has been given access to about 5 acres where we are growing food to share with our poor Marshallese members, and when there is extra food, it is given to the local food banks and our local UCC Churches so they can distribute it to their folks in need too.

Outreach is our main purpose.  As a Medical Interpreter I work with a local Federally Certified Community Health Center called, Bay Clinic.  We work most with the Diabetes Management Class and help people to learn about how important food and exercise is to keeping them from the problems associated with Diabetes.  I serve as a supporter to Micronesians United - Big Island, and we are doing our best to help Micronesians become strong members of the greater Big Island community.

Although I do not proclaim or use my ordination (officially), I keep it close to my heart in all that I do.  I am very grateful for all your support over the years, and plan to take time to do more with our ULC seminary.  Perhaps I too will some day seek standing with the Hawai`i Conference, but I am already respected in my role as facilitator and interpreter for the Marshallese people here in Hawai`i.  For now, in my own quiet way, I am proud to be ordained with ULC, and continue to share many concepts and philosophies with our "very traditional" Marshallese Christian brothers and sisters. 

Mahalo,

Keola

Life on it's path returns towards inside the spray of the wave.
It's quickness is it's quietness at some other time.
Life on this planet and all of the people without exception
Renews at every moment their not needing to be alone.
(from my transliterations of the Tao Te Ching into Marshallese)
