Credentials

Have you felt impressed by God to pursue full-time ministry? Possibly you have a passion to preach or a heart for missions overseas. One important step in this process is obtaining credentials.

The information here (pdf) will help you learn the credential requirements, testing times and locations, and how to get started.

If you would like to download a copy of our District Bylaws, you will find them here in PDF format.
