Provisional Credentials

Provisional Ministerial Credentials are granted to individuals who are in the process of obtaining full ministerial credentials but need an interim status while completing the necessary requirements. This category applies to:

• Applicants Between Ordination Cycles: Individuals who have applied for ordination but need to wait for the next official cycle to complete the process.

• Transferred Credential Holders: Ministers who already hold credentials from another denomination but must undergo an educational or evaluative process specific to our organization.

Key Characteristics

• Temporary Status: These credentials are temporary and serve as a bridge until full credentials can be awarded.

• Referred Individuals: Usually granted to individuals who are referred and known to the organization, ensuring trust and familiarity.

• Educational Requirements: Recipients are typically engaged in completing specific educational or training programs required by our organization.

Provisional Ministerial Credentials allow these individuals to perform certain ministerial functions while they complete the necessary steps for full ordination or credential recognition within our organization.
