Why We Ordain by Request

Because we believe we are all ministers and teachers of God we validate our belief by granting ordination to those who choose to answer their calling. A request for ordination demonstrates to us purposeful intent regarding the acceptance of such a calling. We offer an authentic means to become a Pastor, Reverend, Minister, or Cleric. Whether you are wishing to perform that special ceremony for a friend or family member, or set up your church or ministry, we are here to help.

After you receive your ordination, you are a recognized cleric by our seminary. Your name and date of ordination will be placed in our data base for future reference and validation.

Please note: Letters of Membership in Good Standing are provided for our students and graduates, only. In this way we uphold our ethical standing with the community by providing authentic letters for individuals we have had the opportunity to get to know and that are truly a member of our seminary. We provide this service for free and as needed.

You can feel proud of your ordination through our seminary. Imagine how you will feel beginning a new career that is both rewarding to you and to those you serve.

After you receive your ordination, we support your efforts by offering on line studies and certification in the following areas:

The current economic crisis may provide for you the perfect time to establish your church or ministry and promote your personal and spiritual growth as a cleric. In a poor economy, ministers are needed more than ever. It is indeed a double blessing to provide a living for ourselves and our families while providing spiritual services to others.

Your Future as a Minister

You might be asking yourself: "What does it take to qualify?" What does it take to qualify to minister to your neighbors, your community or to the wider world? It takes YOU, in communion with Spirit, and your desire to minister to others!

Consider what you would do if you could. Would you perform services for those in need? Would you visit with the sick? Would you provide spiritual counseling and consolation to those who grieve? Would you perform baptism, baby dedications, house blessings? Would you administer wedding vows? You could do all these things and more and experience the rewards of ministry.

Our Creed

Only God can ordain and we

are therefore all Ministers of God

An Independent Minister or Ministry cannot be defined or limited by a particular church or religion.

An Independent Minister or Ministry can be a part of and share the beliefs of a particular church or religion.

An Independent Minister or Ministry is a calling from God who blesses us with guidance and grace.

We are all One and dwell deeply inside the One Spirit, and the One Spirit dwells deeply inside each One of us.

There are truths in all the great World Religions.

All belief systems, exempting harmful contemplations and acts, share core beliefs that manifest in peace, joy and unity.
