      About the Ministers
         on our Council Matriarch of the Council  
  Revered Karen B. Paris was
         ordained by the Ministry of Light Interfaith Church on December 7, 2005.  
 Reverend
         Kare's spiritual journey began as a youth active in her church junior choir, teaching children and attending youth groups
         both mainstream and alternative.  
 Reverend Kare believes it is of the utmost importance that a church be
         focused on meeting the individual needs of its members with out being judgmental and foisting beliefs on another requiring
         them to change. She believes each persons spiritual journey is truly unique and deeply personal. She also believes a church,
         no matter what denomination or belief system should create an environment of warmth, love and compassion.  Reverend Kare
         has found that in The Ministry of Light Interfaith Church. 
 Reverend Kare has an eclectic spiritual outlook and
         is also a High Priestess, Founder of the Circle of the Beloved Moon, Usui Reiki Master Teacher and Second Degree Cabot Tradition.
         She is currently furthering her training taking classes in Holistic Life Coaching, and Shamanism. Reverend Kare teaches a wide variety of classes, provides spiritual counseling, Reiki sessions and is recognized by The Commonwealth of Virginia to officiate legal marriages. 
 Reverend Kare is a member in good standing of The International
         Association of Reiki Professionals and ordained LEWA Clergy. The class schedule and additional services provided by Reverend Kare can be viewed at her website. Her online one stop metaphysical shop will be opening soon and will be found at www.circleofthebelovedmoon.com.

 Council Member Suzanne Peroustianis   Suzanne's spiritual journey began with a affinity for animals, which taught her
         the importance of being connected to nature. She rescued her first animal at the age of 4, and never stopped, working for
         years with the Mid-Atlantic Great Dane Rescue League, and leading to the co-founding of a non-profit parrot rescue. After
         studying the major religions of the world, she became Wiccan at the age of 21, formally studying the faith in England. She had the privilege of further studies
         under Arleen Denton, where she got her Reiki Masters Degree in 1999. She is a certified animal trainer, and uses her Reiki
         skills to help animals. She is furthering her spiritual studies with the non physical group known as Abraham.  Suzanne's
         vision for the church is to bring people of all beliefs together in a safe, loving environment for their enrichment. 
  
      
      
 
    Council
         Member Reverand Krystyn Haydash           "A story begins....A life unfolds.  Which hat will be worn today?  Reiki Master, Minister,
         Mother, Wife...Artist, Teacher,  Storyteller, Imajinist?  Makes no difference for each
         persona helps make up the woman known as Krystyn Haydash.  Whole and full of curiosity, eager for the Now and all it
         entails…. Come, Let us wander and get lost, discovering new paths and new ways of being.” Reverend Krystyn Haydash has been on a spiraling odyssey of truth since birth.  She enjoys
         an Eclectic lifestyle with leanings towards Zen/Shamanism as she feels that the answer to existence is not found in any one
         religion or belief system, but in all aspects of life.   Most days one can find her reading
         and learning about ancient mythologies, studying herb lore, alchemy and spiritual symbolism and playing with crystals in her
         healing art.  She is currently an open minded, homeschooling mother of two, a Stained Glass/Mixed Media artist and amateur
         Storyteller/Teacher who is continuously amazed at the journey towards self.  Bliss be yours as you shine your light!

         Tina  Reverend Michelle Due to the personal nature of each
         persons spirituality photos and bios are not available for all council members at this time. We appreciate your understanding.

               						Wish deepest sorrow we mourn the loss of our Founding MotherThose who meet Arlene Denton were profoundly changed
                  in a positive way. She was our Mentor, Mother, Sister and Friend. She founded our church based on love and acceptance and
                  through her ministry she led so many women to a place of healing, inner strength and peace. Arlene encouraged others to find
                  their true spiritual calling and service. Her loss is unfathomable and unexpected and we will all miss her greatly. We can
                  take great comfort in the fact that she is with us all in spirit. Arlene will continue to touch more lives as we continue
                  the work of the ministry encouraging deep spirituality, personal growth, acceptance and love. She left us prepared with a
                  great support structure of sisters on whom we can rely. I encourage you to reach out to each other and share the stories of
                  how Arlene made an impact in your life. Arlene would want us to celebrate her life as she celebrated life.  Burial is
                  at Fairfax Memorial Park at 2:00 Thursday August 5
