— Clinical Pastoral Training —
Every member of the Agape Weddings team holds board certification through the Association of Professional Chaplains and has completed Clinical Pastoral Education residencies in hospital and healthcare settings. That training shows up in the ceremony — in the ability to hold a room, steady a nervous couple, and speak with genuine authority about love, commitment, and meaning.
Chaplain David also offers formal pre-marital counseling covering emotional, financial, physical, spiritual, and parental intimacy — a rare offering from a wedding officiant and a foundation couples carry long past the ceremony itself.
