Daniel Vincent Murphy
Ordained Minister in Tampa, Florida
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
Originally ordained IN May 2001 became an ordained minister through Universal Life Church because I believe everyone should have the freedom to celebrate love and spirituality in a way that feels authentic to them. I wanted to help friends and family mark meaningful moments—like weddings or memorials—in a way that’s personal, heartfelt, and true to who they are. ULC makes it accessible for people who care deeply about connection and inclusion, not just tradition.

What do you hope to achieve with your online ordination?
Honestly, I just want to help people celebrate the big moments in life—with heart, humor, and maybe fewer awkward church pews. Whether it's marrying friends or hosting a unique ceremony, I want to be someone who makes those moments unforgettable.
