I have known Rayvin Nyte for approximately 11 years as a volunteer at Cecil Facer Youth Centre, also as a member of the Sudbury Regional Multifaith Committee. I have always been impressed by her sense of responsibility, dependability, commitment and punctuality in her involvement with youths at our facility through the Journey program and one on one clients. Rayvin has very good interpersonal and communication skills. Based on what I have observed, I have no doubt she would be very proficient at performing clergy responsibilities with integrity, either in the capacity of a healer, through community involvement or by performing ministerial duties.  As a reference person, I strongly support and encourage her in her present aspirations and wish her good luck in her future endeavours.  

I am privileged to have been invited to this event. Many many thanks. The Handfasting was the most beautiful ceremony that I have ever witnessed.

I have known Ms. Nyte since 2007. Our 9-year friendship has been filled with many adventures in the pursuit of happiness. Together, we have tried different diets, walked on burning coals and even travelled across Ontario to touch the most southern point of Canada. Our 9 year friendship has supplied my life with more love than I ever thought was imaginable. Whatever she offers: her gifts and talents, her time, her power and strength, her words, her touch or her service, is an expression of her love. We have supported each other through some of the most difficult times and have committed to make the necessary adjustments to ensure our friendship lasts. If she can do this in the name of friendship, she will go to greater lengths in the name of love. Ms. Nyte is one of the most loving people I know. She teaches, by her own example, how to show love to yourself and to others. Before marrying my same-sex partner, I interviewed many people to facilitate my ceremony. This person plays a very important role in anyone’s wedding day. Like any other couple, we were seeking someone who would be comfortable with our unique love and vision for our ceremony. This person required being open-minded, flexible and have strong communication and public speaking skills all while remaining true to her profession, acting within her role as an officiant and working within the guidelines and legislation around marriage ceremonies. The woman we chose was such a great fit for us and we were truly blessed to have had her part of our “big day”. Ms. Nyte is able to captivate a crowd and ensure the focus stays on the couple. She would bring a light-heart, compassion and understanding, a safe space to express vision to any couple...

It sure was remarkable. I am completely blessed that I was able to witness such love and beauty.

I first met Rayvin when I was her guest speaker at a Pagan event she was hosting several years ago. I was impressed with the way she made everyone feel so loved and so comfortable, regardless of age, sex or physical limitations. I have been involved with many spiritual groups over the years and must admit, it was the first time I witnessed EVERYONE treating everyone equally, with love and respect. It was easy to see that that was a reflection of their leader/teacher Rayvin. I knew nothing of her before, however, after that event, I knew she was a woman of integrity, honesty, pride, compassion, love and service and I wanted to get to know her more. And what I found most impressive, she had lost 150 pounds in just over 1 year! Regardless of how varied her interests are, she is always an amazing, caring, compassionate, honest, dedicated servant of LOVE. Any church, club, group, city, is blessed to know her and call her friend.

We had the pleasure of having Rev. Rayvin Nyte perform the ceremony for our wedding December 2, 2015. It was not the original date for our wedding, however, the date had sentimental value to myself and without hesitation Rayvin made the arrangements and was able to Officiate on short notice. The wedding was amazing she was very professional and friendly, and would Highly recommend her to anyone getting married and looking for someone to perform their ceremony.

A simple, honourable celebration of two lives connecting. Well done and yes magic.  

I have known Rayvin for many years, and she's always been one of the most nurturing, generous and compassionate people I've ever met. Her being a Reverend is such a natural and logical path for her, as countless couples will now unite under her glow of warmth and love. In a nutshell, she's awesome.

On June the 21st of 2015, we (Kevin Morgan and Kim Roy) were handfasted in a beautiful ritual guided and conducted by Rayvin Nyte. The ritual was adapted so suit our circumstances and needs. The ritual was very well performed and the handfasting went off without a hitch. Well, except for us getting hitched of course lol. We found Rayvin to be a thoroughgoing professional in all matters of the ceremony and were very happy with the results. There were handouts prepared for those taking the four directions, so that all involved (mainly our children and close friends) would not have to worry about what to say or when. The energy of the circle was perfectly held in place, and flowed very nicely throughout the whole day. If anyone is looking for a priestess to perform their own handfasting, we highly recommend employing Reverend Rayvin Nyte for this as she is well versed. Regardless of the path followed, I can attest to her competence in performing such rituals. It was an honour to have her at our ritual, lending her blessing to our union.
