Staff

Reverend Dennis M. Wargo, M.Div.

I am a formally educated, trained, and ordained married catholic priest/minister with years of experience and hundreds of weddings under my belt. I specialize in non-denominational marriage ceremonies. Although the wedding ceremonies I perform are not recognized by the Roman Catholic Church, they are recognized as legal by the Commonwealth of Pennsylvania in that I am certified by the International Council of Community Churches and a member of CITI Ministries, Inc. I use my strong background working with my clients to perfect their ceremonies. I have received formal training in Ceremony Construction, Ceremony Execution, Public Speaking, and various belief systems that coupled with my experience create a winning combination. I am a graduate of Duquesne University, Pittsburgh (B.A. – Philosophy and Theology) and Christ the King Seminary, E. Aurora, N.Y (Master of Divinity - Pastoral Theology and Counseling). I have also done Post-Graduate studies at various locations.
