Steve Ghikadis

Steve Ghikadis is a Humanist Officiant, who conducts secular marriages, memorials, and many more meaningful life affirming celebrations. He holds a Bachelor of Arts in History and a Bachelor of Education in primary, junior and intermediate grades.

Raised as a freethinker, Steve has been married to a Christian for over a decade. He and his wife, Cindy, believe in the importance of bridging the gap between believers and non-believers. Their two young children are being raised in an interfaith household and are free to choose their own path.

His family dynamic inspired him to write Humanism from the Heart: Building Bridges Beyond Belief, a book that emphasizes the importance of working together to celebrate the diversity of worldviews.

Steve serves as an Ambassador for Humanist Canada, Recovering from Religion, and Sunday Assembly.

In 2024, he was awarded the King Charles III Coronation Medal for significant contributions to his community in Windsor/Essex, Ontario, Canada.
