We welcome this opportunity to invite you to be ordained by this ministry. The main purpose ofWorld Christianship is to help spread the Christian Faith by making it easy for sincere Christians to be ordained.We provide this opportunity for Christians with all sincerity. We feel that being ordained is a decision that willtransform your life and bring you new meaning, deep personal satisfaction and purpose before God.

Over the last 34 years we have ordained people from all walks of life, including workaday people (bluecollar and white collar), all the way to doctors, lawyers and judges. They all have one thing in common, the desireto spread the Christian faith through simple ordination. We make being ordained easy because we feel it is Biblicaland that it will inspire you to do greater works for the Christian faith.

After being ordained by World Christianship you will be free to carry on your Christian Ministry as Goddirects you. We authorize you to perform all Christian religious services including the rites of marriage andbaptism. You will be entitled to use a formal title before your name such as Reverend (or other similar Christiantitle). You will be entitled to the respect and consideration customarily given to ministers of religious organizations.

In all states in theUSA, and in many foreign countries, you will have the opportunity to perform legal wedding ceremonies shouldyou choose to do so. This in itself gives you the chance to earn extra money to support your ministry and family.Our handbook entitled The Marriage Minister Handbook is an excellent reference on this subject. I wrote thishandbook personally after performing over 2,000 wedding ceremonies in homes, gardens, parks, halls & churches,the mountains, and more. In this handbook you will learn how easy it is to perform almost all wedding ceremonies.

This ministry is able to offer these opportunities because of the kindness and generosity of people like you.We do request offerings for the various certificates and services that we provide. Without your kind offerings wewould not be able to continue the ministry as we now do. If, however, you are truly unable to send us an offering,we will understand and send you a small pocket card to confirm ordination upon approval.
