* What selection of service are you requesting? Please make your selection by checking the box next to the type of license you would like to apply for.

Ministerial License

A Ministerial License is issued on the recommendation of the Apostolic Light Fellowship Board of Elders. A minister holding a Ministerial License may pastor and evangelize as God would lead him. Ministers holding a Ministerial License can also perform baptisms, weddings and funerals and are granted all of the privileges of membership within the Apostolic Light Fellowship organizational structure. PLEASE NOTE: This credential is not available for women (please see Special Ministry License below).

Full Ordination Credentials (Full Ordination is not available to new applicants unless the applicant is transferring from another recognized Apostolic Pentecostal Organization in good standing with letters of reference from organizational headquarters of previous licensing fellowship. Otherwise minimum time of service is required before applicant may apply for Full Ordination Credentials).

Ordination Credentials are issued on the recommendation of Apostolic Light Fellowship Board of Elders. A minister holding Full Ordination Credentials may pastor and evangelize as God would lead him, and perform baptisms, weddings, funerals, and other rites and ceremonies. A minister must be ordained by Apostolic Light Fellowship in order to hold the office of an Appointed Board Elder. Ordination also affords a minister all of the privileges of membership within the Apostolic Light Fellowship organizational structure.

Special Ministry License

Apostolic Light Fellowship realizes that there are many various callings within the body of Christ and that each serves a legitimate ministerial capacity within the church. Those seeking this type of ministerial recognition and whose calling may not include pulpit ministry could be candidates for the Special Ministry License. Included in this category would be those involved in prison ministry, police chaplaincy, music ministry, youth ministry, helps ministry, cell group facilitation, missions, humanitarian acts, or other church-related ministries. Also included in this category is the Special Ministry License for Women (known as the "Certificate of Dedication"). This type of ministerial licensing is especially designed for women who may be called to teach and preach God’s Word under the direction of an overseeing pastor or elder. PLEASE NOTE: Apostolic Light Fellowship does not recognize women into pastoral positions of oversight within the New Testament Church. A woman who applies with this fellowship for licensing must either have a husband who holds a minister's license or an Apostolic Pentecostal pastor who will provide her with full Apostolic covering at the local level.
