For one Canadian student, the Minister of the Word credential has provided the clarity and confidence to fully walk in her Christian ministry calling:
“I am very happy to be receiving the ‘Minister of the Word’ Ordination so that I can tell couples that I am an ordained Christian Minister.”
For five years, she served as a Metaphysical Minister in Canada, but she longed for ordination that reflected her Christian faith and biblical foundation. Now, with her ordination through CLI and CLA, she is excited to serve Christian couples with confidence and credibility:
“Now I can let Christian couples know that I have solid training to be a Christian Minister.”
She is also finishing her final three courses for the Bachelor of Chaplaincy Degree at CLI and has a passion for serving either in a church or in a nursing home, where she can encourage others in their faith:
“I hope to work in the church or in a nursing home encouraging people in their faith and providing guidance & strength in difficult times.”
Looking back, she sees that the call to ministry was always there:
“I always knew the Lord wanted me to be a minister, but CLI has shown me that we are all called to be ministers!”
Her closing words echo the heart of many students:
“Thank you for providing these free and low-cost courses, Christian Leaders Institute. God bless all of you!”
