Seminary Program

This is where we post the essays from many of our Universal Life Church Seminary students. When students finish a ULC course, they write a comprehensive essay about their experiences with the course, what they learned, didn't learn, were inspired by, etc. Here are their essays.

Wedding Stories

The Photographer and the Cake
By Rev. Sam Minder


This one is sort of a horror story. I officiated at a wedding that was kind of short notice. The whole thing had been put together quickly and on a small budget. This wasn't the problem. The problem was that the room the wedding was in was on a ship and the room was a little crowded. The photography (my least favorite photographer) was moving to take a picture of the bride and groom at the head table. He was standing by the cake when it mysteriously fell over! Everyone was horrified, especially the bride. The photographer (who still had the frosting on his jacket) looked at it like it was such a shame that 'someone' had knocked over the cake. Didn't apologize, didn't take responsibility, offered no compensation to the bride and groom. He just went on as if nothing happened. Fortunately, the person who made the cake had the foresight to bring her cake-decorating stuff so she was able to do some repairs. Moral of the story: Stay away from the cake!

*******************************

The Universal Life Church is a comprehensive online seminary where we have classes in Christianity, Wicca, Paganism, two courses in Metaphysics and much more. I have been a proud member of the ULC for many years and the Seminary since its inception.


The Universal Life Church offers hand-fasting ceremonies, funeral ceremonies and free minister training.

As a long time member of ULC, Rev. Long created the seminary site to help train our ministers. We also have a huge selection of Universal Life Church  minister supplies. Since being ordained with the Universal Life Church for so many years and it's Seminary since the beginning, I've watch the huge change and growth that has continued to happen.
