   Special Ceremonies and Other Services

 

Ananda's ceremonies, available to all who share their inspiration, include weddings, baptisms/christenings, funerals, and astral ascensions (emphasizing the soul's ascent from the physical plane to the astral). Our primary ceremony, the "Festival of Light," is offered every Sunday during our weekly service.

These ceremonies evoke our highest soul aspirations with a universal tone enriched with music and poetry. Excerpts from a few of these ceremonies can be found in the book Cities of Light by J. Donald Walters. For your convenience, the relevant sections are reproduced here:

Chapter 9: Crystal Clarity in Marriage (Wedding Ceremony)
Chapter 14: Channeling the Light (Baptism and Festival of Light)
 

If you would like to request a ceremony or for information on weddings, baptisms, funerals, or astral ascension ceremonies, please call us at 503-626-3403 to talk with one of our ministers, or simply drop us an email.
