Michael J. Ramirez
Ordained Minister in Scottsdale, Arizona
Why did you originally become an ordained minister online?
I became ordained in obedience to the call I received through Christ our Lord. While the legal ordination was fulfilled through the Universal Life Church, the true ordination came by the Spirit of the Living God, who anointed and appointed me to serve at life’s most sacred thresholds. This online ordination served as the vessel to bring what was spiritually birthed into the legal and public realm—for the glory of God and the good of souls.
Where are you from?
I am from New Jersey, though I carry my ministry not as limited by location, but as led by the Spirit—available to serve wherever the Lord opens the way. Presently, I am in the Phoenix / Scottsdale region of Arizona.
What do you hope to achieve with your online ordination?
Minister of the Remnant. Servant of the Living God. I walk with those returning— from pain, from exile, from deception—into the truth, healing, and love of Jesus Christ.
Whether through prayer, ritual, counsel, or sacred ceremony, the work entrusted to me is not my own. It belongs to the Lord.
If He is drawing you, this may be your time to come home.

Additional Information
I am a follower of Jesus Christ—ordained not by denomination, but by divine appointment. My ministry is rooted in Scripture, guided by the Holy Spirit, and surrendered to the will of the Father. I serve with love and grace, extending Christ's peace to all whom He leads to me, regardless of where they are on their journey.
Though rooted solely in Christ, my work often supports those healing from New Age deception, occult bondage, or distorted spiritualism—restoring them to the truth of Jesus through loving presence, deliverance, and sacred re-orientation. This Ministry is open to those from all backgrounds— and is a safe place to return to the true Shepherd of your soul—Jesus Christ, in love and in truth.
What do you think makes your ceremonies special as a Scottsdale, AZ wedding officiant?
Every ceremony I lead is rooted in sacred intention. I do not recite from a script—I minister from the heart, as led by the Spirit. Each couple I serve is seen, heard, and deeply honored. I offer not just a legal service, but a holy blessing, tailored with care, prayer, and reverence. Whether it’s a quiet elopement or a traditional celebration, I seek to make every wedding feel like a divine moment—because it is.
Are there particular areas near you where you prefer to travel or have special experience?
I am available to serve throughout the United States of America - west coast or east; I am willing to travel where necessary as the Lord leads and as logistics allow. I have experience holding ceremonies in natural settings, homes, chapels, and sacred spaces of all kinds. Wherever love and honor are present, I am willing to go.
