Gloria Gonzalez
Ordained Minister in Austin, Texas
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I am a retired high school counselor. I worked with several different ministries through my church for many years in Fort Worth. My future husband (who happened to be my teenage 1st love) found me on social media in 2014. We dated long distance then married March 14, 2020 right before the pandemic lockdown. I am a newly ordained marriage officiant through Universal Life Church and American Marriage Ministries. I offer personalized ceremonies. I will take the time to get to know the couple and craft a ceremony that reflects their love story, values, and beliefs. I offer flexibility in wording, vows, and traditions to create a unique experience.

Originally from Corpus Christi, Texas and lived in Fort Worth for almost 20 years. I currently live in Austin, Texas.
What do you hope to achieve with your online ordination?
I hope to bring all types of couples together in the ceremony of marriage.
