Thank you for taking the time to consider me for your wedding Celebrant and Officiant. In Ireland we say, "Great choices and the stages of life require the shelter of blessings." Your steadfastness in making preparations for your wedding will assure you the loving consistency of finding home in one another. My name is Fr. Sean Poland and I was ordained a priest in 1994 which gives me more than twenty-seven years of experience of enabling couples to discern, prepare, and celebrate their wedding vows.

Couples offer us blessed insights into the intense dynamics that make up the marrying process. Consequently, my Faith and Ministry have matured into an acceptance and welcoming of all Faiths and Belief systems. The bulk of my duties in weddings, baptisms, anniversaries, and other life stages including ministry with veterans, hospice, and funerals.

Progressive, open, inclusive, and receptive to those particulars that will make your wedding day a special day for you, your family, and friends, is my mission.
Services
I am an ordained priest and I am a member in good standing in the Society of Christ's Priesthood Religous Society which is Society of Validly Ordained Priests with some of the priests being married priests and some who are celibate priests.
I serve in a ministerial capacity in accordance with the stated purpose of this Religious Society.
Further, I am liscensed through Citi Ministries affiliation as a Religious Society with the International Council of Community Churches (Ohio Charter #240436) which is housed in the state of Illinois where we file annual reports with the office of the Secretary of State.
I have civil authority from the state to officiate at your wedding ceremony and your wedding will be legal in the eyes of the state.
My authority comes from the International Council of Community Churches, through CITI Ministries and the Society of Christ's Priesthood who recognize me as being a Validly Ordained Priest.
Although I am a priest, I am no longer considered to be a "cleric" within the Catholic Church.
Although the Catholic Church recognizes that I was a Validly Ordained as Priest, I am not permitted to function as a priest within the Catholic Church because of my decision to marry without the Church's approval and authorization.
In this type of ministry, the fee collected for celebrating your service is called an "Honorarium" You have already "Honored" me by requesting information about the possibility of me celebrating your service, and in return I will "Honor" you and your guests with a very special ceremony.
For weekday weddings 40 miles round trip, a fee of $75.00 is requested to cover additional time.
