Sometimes life has a way of bringing us to where we should be,
although it is not always easy to feel the joy in the journey you take
to get there.
I feel as though I am where I should be.
As a teacher and a writer, taking on the role of Lay Chaplain for the Unitarian
Fellowship of Fredericton seems like a good thing to be doing.
Officiating weddings has given me pure joy from the very beginning of being a Lay Chaplain.
I am humbled and in awe of the privilege I have been given to help couples with their ceremonies.
Working together, we are able to create a ceremony that will honor the
diversity of beliefs of the
individual. - Sharon van Abbema, Unitarian Fellowship of Fredericton
Lay Chaplain.

Our Lay Chaplains have a Marriage
Ceremonies Guide that is shared with couples so they can
co-create a ceremony that is meaningful to them.
Lay Chaplains will travel and conduct services in outdoor
locations, historic sites, private homes or institutions or at a
location that is meaningful to the couple making a commitment to each
other.
