Debbie Gratitude Sliker

originally became an ordained minister online because I deeply value love, connection, and the sacred milestones in life. It felt like a natural extension of my calling to bring people together and celebrate their unique stories. Being ordained allowed me to serve others in meaningful ways, creating spaces where love, gratitude, and authentic connection could flourish. It was a step that aligned with my belief in inclusivity and my desire to support people on their journeys, regardless of their backgrounds or traditions.

I live and operate the Gratitude Ranch in Alamosa, Colorado, a place where love, gratitude, and connection come to life. Nestled in the stunning natural beauty of the San Luis Valley, the ranch serves as a sanctuary for meaningful experiences, personal growth, and celebrating life’s special moments. This is where I embrace my calling to create heartfelt connections and honor the unique journeys of those I meet.

I hope to create spaces where love and connection can be celebrated in all their beautiful forms. My goal is to honor each couple’s unique story and provide meaningful ceremonies that reflect their values, beliefs, and dreams. Beyond officiating weddings, I aim to use my role to inspire compassion, gratitude, and inclusivity, fostering deeper connections between people and the world around them. It’s about spreading the message that love is universal, transformative, and the most sacred force we share.

My religion is love boundless, all-inclusive, and universal. It is rooted in the belief that love transcends all differences, connecting us in a shared humanity. As an ordained minister, I honor all faiths, traditions, and spiritual paths, creating ceremonies that reflect the unique love and values of each couple. Love is the foundation, and I am here to celebrate it in all its beautiful forms.

As an ordained minister since November 20, 2000, I bring the gift of gratitude to every wedding I officiate. Gratitude is at the heart of everything I do, creating ceremonies filled with love, connection, and authenticity. My goal is to honor each couple's unique journey, celebrating their union with warmth, joy, and a deep appreciation for the beauty of their love story.

My religion is love, universal, all-inclusive, and grounded in a deep connection to the Earth. I believe every location, from mountaintops to beaches or intimate gardens, carries its own sacred beauty, making it the perfect setting to celebrate love. As an ordained minister, I honor all paths and traditions, crafting ceremonies that reflect the unique bond of each couple while embracing the natural beauty of the world around us.

Through my Gratitude EQ course, I’ve helped others cultivate connection and harmony, and I incorporate these same principles into creating ceremonies that celebrate love, joy, and authentic connection. Each ceremony is a reflection of gratitude and the unique bond between the couple, making their special day truly unforgettable.
