Since ancient times ceremonies and rituals have been crucial parts of the human experience. Regardless of a person’s spiritual or religious beliefs and practices, ceremony plays a role in their means of celebrating birth, death, marriage, graduation, anniversaries, and countless other life transitions.

Fire Ceremony

The Use of Fire in Ceremonies

Fire is a very powerful transformer. We at The Center for Earth Light Healing believe in the power of using fire in ceremonies as often as possible. For that reason we have a fire available at our site in Brunswick, with private space for ceremony. In addition, at most of our teaching events there is a sizeable fire pit available for ceremony during weekend workshops.

Ministery Services

Susan Savell, an ordained minister, and founder of The Peace Church, a non-denominational, intentional spiritual community, is authorized to perform legal marriages anywhere in the U.S. Because Susan’s marriage ceremonies are customized for the individual couple, the experience is one of total immersion in the unique loving qualities of the marriage couple. Susan has also married many gay and lesbian couples and, although this experience is not yet legal in most states, it is one that is binding in love and powerful for the couple and within the community committing to support the couple in their lives together.

Stacey and Mark Power

Susan’s music can be an element of any marriage ceremony. Susan has 4 professional recordings and has performed live for audiences of thousands throughout the US and Europe. She is a talented musician and has the capacity to move her listeners to a space of grace, openness and wonder.

Dory and Susan have also performed marriage ceremonies together, like that of Stacey and Mark Power. At the request of couples who want drumming and other shamanic or more native rituals as a part of their
ceremony, Dory and Susan craft a ceremony that meets the needs of both persons in the partnership.
