I joined the ULC back in the early 80's because it seemed like something fun to do. I got a church charter from Modesto and a church bank account and all the tax implications that came with that (which of course we know now was not quite up to snuff according to the IRS). This all got set aside when I got married. I have done marriages in both Wisconsin and Minnesota (I live on the border) and as far as I know have a 100% success ratio (all are still married!). Joined this forum recently and am still letting people know I am a minister (a great conversation starter). Hello from Minnesota! Rev Joe
