Rev Kerry Fong-Jean
My religion is love. I feel we are all connected and need to support one another however we can. I also feel it truly does take a village to raise a child. Your child cannot have too many people who love him/her. I would be honoured to perform a beautiful ceremony to welcome your precious child into our world. A baby is a sacred gift and the greatest blessing. I will listen to your needs and create a personalized baptism or welcoming ceremony in a comfortable setting of your choice. It is wonderful to have the service in your backyard or in your home surrounded by all you hold dear. I look forward to working with you and giving your child a gracious, loving and happy welcome into your family.

Peter Yerdon
Born and raised in Brockville, Peter has spent much of his life in the service of others. He and his wife raised their three daughters in this community and are proud grandparents of one granddaughter (so far!). Performing a naming ceremony or baptism brings him joy. You won’t find a more conscientious, emotionally invested person than Peter. His biggest fault is not being able to say ‘no’. As a former member of the Kinsmen Club he received his Life Time Achievement Award. He has a great interest in the theatre both musical, dramatically as well as improvisational and as such, has a flair for adventure. Peter is an Appointed Designated Minister and he looks forward to helping you and your family make your ceremony memorable.
Baptism Stories
Not being of a religious background, we were not sure how to welcome our son Liam into the spiritual world. Your ceremony and readings fit our family perfectly. The memories will live in our hearts forever. The naming ceremony helped to solidify the amazing extended family our son Liam has. We were very lucky to have found your service. Many thanks for making Liam's day so special.Iggy Greenwoos& Liam Scott
