I had never officiated a wedding before at the Trinity Episcopal Church in Wheaton for Juan and Jenice on June 16, 2018. The original chapel of the church is a beautiful building that dates from the 1800’s and is a perfect setting for a wedding. The all dark wood building has super high arches and beautiful stained glass windows. We are pictured in an adjacent modern fellowship hall next to the chapel. Juan is a Marine and wore his dress uniform. This was a very hot day even for a 10 AM wedding but the building is air conditioned and very comfortable. Several family members were involved in the ceremony including both of their mothers for the candle lighting unity ceremony.
