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.

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!
