I am ordained as a Minister of the Word and Sacrament in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.). My ordination followed my call to be the solo pastor of a small church. Preaching, celebrating communion, and conducting baptisms are the aspects of my ministry that make it an "ordained" position.

Why do you ask?

So far we have ordained one person who is on staff with us at present. There is a total of four staff members. Myself, a Senior Associate Pastor, Associate Pastor, and an Assistant Pastor.

Great! I will check out your website. It sounds like there are wonderful things going on with your ministry. Please continue to share what God is doing!

Also, I'd like to invite you into the Pastor's Break Room... a place to relax and chat about our lives and ministries. It's good to meet you! :wave:

I am a priest in the Old Catholic Church of North America.


Kerux-- how many people are you currently ministering to/are in your congregation. You state you have 4 pastors, but no church yet. Are you building a church as well or focusing on being a licensing organization?

I am ordained through the United Chrisitan Faith Ministries. I actually come from the United Methodist Church, and I went through the Candidate for Ordained Ministry program. However, God had other plans for me -- I have been called to plant a non-denominational church in NW Georgia, USA.

I'll check out your site as well. I'm always interested in other ministries.
