GPM was established in early 2008 as a nondenominational ministry founded in the truth of accepting the rights of all to follow their own personal beliefs. We acknowledge that spiritual growth comes from finding the truth in our individual ways throughout life.
We uphold the First Amendment of the Constitution of the United States of America , and the right of the individual to legally worship or not worship as they please.
The Doctrine of this Ministry that we "Do what is right, live fruitful lives, be true to ourselves, while causing no harm to others or the planet and accept the individual's right to worship as they see fit.
Everyone is invited to use the services of the Ministry, whether you worship God above or Nature's beauty. We welcome all.
I am a legal officiant of a church,with full authority to perform both the legal contract as well as the spiritual commitment of the couple..
Since the establishment of Green Planet Ministry I have performed hundreds of wedding ceremonies at various locations throughout the state.
My concern for the couple to have a ceremony and a day that they will remember is paramount. It's your ceremony and should be conducted in a way the reflects your wishes.
Principles of Green Planet Ministry
Reverance for the earth
GPM believes that our planet should be revered and respected , and that nature signifies the process and wonders of the earth that are undetermined by humans. The earth is a living thing and therefore a gift for us. We encourage everyone to practice conservation, and try to do all they can through daily life, to give the earth every bit of energy they can find, to help its struggle for survival in today's harsh environment of pollution and damage.
Self responsibilty
We need to be more responsible for ourselves, what happens to us is usually because there is something that we need to notice, and wonder what the world is trying to teach us. It is always easy to blame someone else for what is happening to oneself, but in th end it is the Self that must accept full responsibilty for everything in one's life. To blame the devil for something that has gone wrong is futile, and to thank God for something that we do right is also wrong. When we do something wrong or something happens to us we must blame ourselves, and listen to the lesson that it is trying to teach us. Likewise, when you do something good and something goes well for you -pat yourself on the back.
We are committed to the application of reason and science to the understanding of the universe and the the solving of human problems.
We believe that scientific discovery and technology can contribute to the betterment of human life.
We are committed to the principle of the seperation of church and state.
We are concerned with securing justice and fairness.
We want to protect and enhance the earth, to preserve it for future generations and to avoid inflicting needless suffering on other species
We believe enjoying life here and now and in developing our creative talents to their fullest.
We respect the right to privacy
We believe in common moral decencies:integrity, honesty,truthfulness and responsibility.
We believe the culivation of moral excellence.
We are deeply concered with the education of chrildren. We want to nourish reason and compassion.
We are skeptical of untested claims of knowledge.
We believe in optimism rather then pessimism, hope rather then dispair, learning in the place of dogma, truth instead of ignorance, joy rather guilt or sin, tolerance in place of fear, love instead of hatred, compassion over selfishness, beauty instead of ugliness, and reason.
We believe in the realization of the best and noblest that we can be.
