Betty Reckas Cultural Center

Sunday, I married a wonderful couple (Kris & Roosevelt) at the Betty Reckas Cultural Center in Long Beach. Being a mobile officiant, I have the pleasure of traveling to great locations. The Betty Reckas Cultural Center is just that - a great location, tucked away in plan view.

The blue domed roof is very obvious from Pacific Coast Highway, yet you zip right past it. I was glad that Khristina did not. Her mother being Greek Orthodox, this was the perfect location for them. Not using the sanctuary instead opting for the "garden area" for a beautiful summertime wedding.

If you are looking for a great location, try the Betty Reckas Cultural Center in Long Beach.

Gulf Oil Spill Day of Prayer, Sunday, June 27, 2010

Blessings All Around and Angela Chester Ministries join with Louisiana Gov. Bobby Jindal for a day of prayer. Gov. Bobby Jindal has called for prayer in Louisiana, for perseverance in coping with the environmental crisis caused by the oil spill in the Gulf. The day of prayer is Sunday, June 27, 2010.

State senators in Louisiana have designated Sunday as a day of prayer aimed at seeking an end to the Gulf of Mexico oil spill disaster. On Wednesday, Louisiana state Sen. Robert Adley won unanimous approval of the resolution, which invites people of all faiths from within the state and around the U.S. to focus on divine intervention to find a solution to the crisis.

“You don’t have to live in Louisiana to understand the pain and anxiety that the families are feeling. Seeing the pictures of the birds covered in oil is heart wrenching. The oil spill affects all of us - East coast, West coast, Gulf coast.”, explained Angela Chester Ministries’ Spokesperson Rev. Angela Butts-Chester.

Texas Gov. Rick Perry also has declared Sunday a day of prayer in his state.

Rev. Angela Butts-Chester is a Pastoral Counselor in Long Beach, Ca, with Angela Chester Ministries. She offers Officiant services with Blessings All Around and hosts I Do Radio. Rev. Chester is the author of Before You Tie The Knot –A Premarital Counseling Workbook for the DIY Couple.
