Pastor Stokes came to our home the same day I called to inquire! She was amazing and informative! She made the process easy and fun!

Stokes Saves The Day!
We were in an absolute panic over our wedding due to Covid and Stokes Ministry saved the day! Sharon met with our family over dinner, and after a wonderful meal and even better conversation she married us right then and there and even agreed to preside over our ceremony when state restrictions are lifted. Did I mention this all took place in less than a week?
In these crazy and uncertain times Stokes Ministry is a beacon of light and hope! We will never forget the kindness and acceptance extended to us and are so excited to have our formal ceremony later this month with Sharon beside us.❤️

Team of Stokes Ministry
Sharon Stokes
Pastor
Meet Pastor Sharon Stokes, founder of Stokes Ministry!
Pastor Sharon became ordained in 2009 and began officating funerals and small weddings. Wanting to give back to her community, Pastor Sharon started Stokes Ministry in 2016. The ministry was a way to help her community and teach an understanding of the bible.
Since starting the ministry Pastor Sharon has really found a love for officiating weddings. Helping two people make a commitment to one another for the rest of their lives is the greatest joy one can have.
