The Ministers & the Staff

 


 

Meet The White Rose Ministers

 

 

Revs. Linda & Earl Heflinger
are both are ordained ministers, and a happily married couple — who perform weddings as a team whenever possible — an unusual and rare offering.   Their ceremonies are joyous, spiritual, romantic, meaningful and fresh.  They focus on the nurturing of equal partnership and the importance of being — and remaining — best friends in marriage.  They honor your unique relationship and family dynamic.

 

As multi-denominational ministers, they happily serve couples from all backgrounds, faiths and walks of life, and have officiated at more than 2300 weddings since 1991.

 

Revs. Linda & Earl perform weddings, vow renewal ceremonies and baptisms at their chapel, The White Rose, in Colorado Springs, and they will consider travel to your special location, as their schedule permits.

   


 

Meet The White Rose Staff

 

We have had a wonderful staff of assistants over the years, some on a regular schedule and some on call as needed.  We are currently in the process of revising this page to include current pictures.

Until this page is updated, the only Staff members pictured here are Cedar and Mr. Bones, our faithful companions and Chapel Greeters (below).

 

 

     


 

Our Official Chapel Greeters & Watchdogs

 

   

Cedar ►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►►

Cedar — never a bride, only a bridesmaid — has been our official Chapel Greeter and Watchdog since we opened in 1998.  She is usually present when we consult with couples about upcoming wedding ceremonies.  She is occasionally invited by dog lovers to attend rehearsals and/or weddings.  Cedar is well-trained and does a number of tricks, including wearing hats.  When you come to the Chapel, ask to see our 2002 calendar with Cedar wearing a different hat for every month.  Cedar also “sings” (actually, hums/howls) with us on “Let Me Call You Sweetheart.”  Cedar is ten years old.

 
 
 
 

Mr. Bones
◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄◄

Mr. Bones is a very special Scottish Terrier who came to us in 2007 when we found out that he needed a new home.  He is the most peaceful and laid-back dog we have ever known.  Cedar is as happy as we are to have him as another member of our family.  He also enjoys participating in weddings, and will lie quietly in the Chapel during ceremonies when given permission to do so.  Mr. Bones is also 10 years old.  So far, we have not gotten him to sing with Cedar, but we are working on it.  We do not necessarily believe the old saying that you can't teach an old dog new tricks.
