If you ask for ordination in the American Fellowship Church, you are indicating that you accept and agree to the American Fellowship Church Code of Ethics.
Before placing your order, please click Code of Ethics to view the Code of Ethics.Your Minister License ID Card
You can become ordained online today, when you order your minister license and ID card.
Your minister identification card certifies that you are a legally ordained and currently licensed minister.You may use the titles Pastor, Bishop, Deacon, Minister, Preacher, Priest, Priestess, Chaplain, Rabbi or any other title that you wish, except Doctor titles.
- Your ID card is your Minister License, your ID as a Minister, and your small Certificate of Ordination all in one.
- Your minister ID card will show that you are licensed to perform wedding ceremonies, baptisms and funerals.
- Having minister credentials will allow you to perform the wedding ceremony of a friend or relative*. (See note below re Canada)
In addition, If your ministry takes you to hospitals or prisons, you may use the ID card to help you gain admittance to those institutions. You may also use the card to help obtain special parking privileges when they are available to ordained and licensed ministers.
Performing Weddings and Marriage Ceremonies
If you plan to perform marriages for friends or others, we urge you to order our publication "Details of Marriage Laws." This publication contains important information you need before you perform marriages in the United States.
Some states have special requirements and in a very few areas, (such as Nevada) our ministers cannot perform marriages unless they have an actual congregation or perhaps can't perform marriages at all. We suggest you order our publication "Details of Marriage Laws" to be well informed.
Additionally you may or may not be able to perform marriages in other countries.
* For example, our ministers may not perform marriages in Canada where very few churches are allowed to do that.(To order "Details of Marriage Laws" in USA see Church Documents )
Testimonial from one of our ministers...
Since my becoming a minister of the American Fellowship Church, my life has been spiritually, mentally, and physically changed to a degree whereas I know that there is only one way to go, and that is with God.
Rev. H. W., Virginia
What's on your Minister ID Card....
You may become legally ordained right now by ordering an Ordination ID Card which is also your Minister License.

As an ordained military Chaplain, I’m free to preform marriage in my state. However American Fellowship Church, has afforded me the opportunity of a lifetime, I’m now free to travel to another state to and preside over my Mother’s wedding.

American Fellowship Church, was there during the time of need. My old endorsing agency administration was not able to provide the updates due to having only one person to process licenses and they were on convalescence hours from an accident that occurred months earlier.
Now days to be in good ethical and moral standing when performing my spiritual duties, it is especially important to have documentation.
Posted by Rev. Victoria on 24th Dec 2015
My products came as promised and as ordered. Everything came in a timely manner. I'm excited to begin my ministry. Many thanks!

Received my order quickly and the items were as shown/described on your site. They were shown to the local registrar who advised the credentials were acceptable for officiating at weddings in the state of New Jersey. I am very satisfied with this and found helpful the purchase of Ceremonies for Marriages, Baptisms and Funerals and Details of Marriage Laws.
