IAOGI Structure and Credentials
Ecclesiastical Structure
- We do not advocate nor practice control over our IAOGI ministers, ministries or churches.
- We recognize autonomy of the local church, however, it is not an island and is expected to serve in unity and fellowship.
- We expect all affiliated churches and ministers to practice sound doctrine.
- We adhere strongly to professional ministerial ethics as relating to ministers and churches.
Credentials
Please give us a call so that we can help you through the process. We will gladly give you all the information you need.
A distinct call to ministry is a must for credentialing.
There are three levels for credentialing:
- Christian Worker: A lay person who is qualified and certified to teach, visit the sick, minister in hospitals and jails, as well as assist in many of the functions of the church.
- A Licensed Minister: One who is qualified for evangelism, teaching, administrating, and in some cases, pastoring (including the performance of marriage).
- Ordained Minister: One who is a properly educated and/or trained minister with proven practical experience (This is the highest credential offered).
