EFCA Credentialing
The purpose of a ministerial credential is to:
- affirm God’s call upon a person’s life
- verify that this person meets the qualifications and standards for ministry in the Evangelical Free Church of America
- approve this person for ministerial service under the auspices of the EFCA
- provide legal status in the exercise of that person’s ministry
