As a member of the "Fellowship" you will receive a monthly newsletter, that has different articles in it about the "Fellowship" and what's happening. News about different Missionaries, and also there is an inspiring message in each issue.
We recognize that God has called you into a ministry, and we are here to
try and help you in any way we possibly can.
1. You will always have someone to stand with you in prayers and be your "spiritual
covering", without trying to supervise you or govern your ministry. You
will not be in bondage to a denomination, but enjoy complete liberty to obey
God.
2. We can give you the names of our nearest churches and your fellow ministers
in your area for fellowship and cooperation.
3. Upon request, we can provide a letter of recommendation for those ministers
in good standing.
4. Upon request we will counsel and advise you on ways to promote and publicize
your ministry. (Free).
5. With our "Group Ruling" from the IRS we can make you and 2 or
3 others into a tax-exempt organization for less than 1/3 of what it would
cost you to get it on your own. Send $2 for our 20-page "How To"
booklet.
6. We can invite you as a guest speaker for our own Church services.
7. We have two Holy Convocations each year for all of our ministers to come
for "Camp meeting". It might be that we can come and have a "Camp
Meeting" in your area.
