Last night, I had the honor of officiating a wedding at Arrowhead Country Club, whose lovely grounds, even during overseeding season, made for a perfect wedding setting. I appreciated the opportunity to work with Jimmy Davenport, who has provided his professional DJ services for me for decades.

While driving to Villa Siena…..
the bumper-to-bumper traffic on the freeway presented no inconvenience, given the abundance of reading material I had.

A beautiful review written by the bride of the wedding I just performed at Maggiano’s this past weekend.

This small intimate wedding was incredibly enjoyable with just close family. I felt like one of the family.

“I really appreciate everything that you did. I can’t thank you enough for being by my girls and George’s side. I’ve watched the ceremony over and over again and if I had to do it all over again I would choose you each time. Your charisma, how you articulated every word in a way that made it so meaningful and powerful.
Thank you❤️❤️”

Just had an emotional wedding. The groom, and their two witnesses are all in the military. Such a reflective time.

✡️ Dear Heavenly Father, on this sacred occasion of Hanukkah, I lift up my Jewish friends with a prayer of blessings. May the light of the menorah illuminate their lives with hope, joy, and peace. In the spirit of unity, may we all cherish the diversity of our faiths and find common ground in the shared pursuit of love and understanding. Amen. 🕎
