IICM International Executive Board has decided to process
Applications and Recommendations for Ordination of Pastors,
Nominations and Applications from Deserving, Qualified and Experienced Servants
of God,
for consecrations as Bishops, Arch Bishops and Cardinals
provided good reasons and high recommendations are received.
If you have any nominations to make for Consecration of Bishop, Arch Bishop or Cardinal, please send the candidate's bio-data and a photo by email to iicm@aol.com
A Contribution is required for those who desire to be
Ordained as a Pastor or Consecrated as a Bishop, Arch-Bishop or Cardinal,

After the nomination is received by us, a specially designated committee will process
the nominations received to be consecrated and decisions will be made
as to whether we should consecrate those candidates as
Bishops, Arch-Bishops or Cardinals as per their recommendation.
If the applications are approved, the concerned persons will be so notified.
In order to be Ordained or Consecrated, the candidate should attend one of our
Ordination or Consecration Service which is generally held during our Pastors Conferences or Seminars in U.S.A., INDIA or any other country almost every month and generally
during the last Friday, Saturday and Sunday.
It does not matter whether these applicants are members of other Denominations, Churches or Christian bodies. So far as the titles that we give are concerned it may be used with reference to IICM, and also for their purpose
in their respective ministries.
Further they should also meet all the other requirements of the laws if any,
particularly for performing certain ceremonies such as marriage or death.
It is the title within the Spiritual Hierarchy
of IICM. Of course the individuals may feel free to use this Spiritual Title in any of their communication or in any situation,
but they should add at the end
or within parenthesis IICM.
It is our goal and need to build our spiritual hierarchy in IICM as follows:
- Any number of Pastors for any State or Country
- 1 Bishop for every major City
- 1 Arch Bishop for every State
- 1 Cardinal for every Country
Their role will be as follows:
1. To Consecrate Bishops in their area, if they have been consecrated as an Arch Bishop by IICM
2. To Consecrate Arch Bishops if they have been consecrated as Cardinals by IICM
3. Cardinals will be consecrated only by Patriarch or other Cardinals of IICM, in special cases.
4. Bishops, Arch Bishops and Cardinals can Ordain Pastors & award Degrees to the graduates of IICM in the Convocation Services held in their areas.
It should be noted that once a person is consecrated as a Bishop for a City, Arch-Bishop for a State or a Cardinal for a Country to serve and play a spiritual role in the IICM ministries, he will be entitled to enjoy several privileges, benefits and financial benefits by way of Honorarium, allowances, offerings etc. for
- Ordaining Pastors
- Preaching in Gospel Meetings or Crusades
- Conducting Pastors and Leaders Seminars
- Consecrating Bishops and Arch Bishops
- Conferring Degrees in Graduation Services etc.
Nominate suitable candidates to serve in these capacities as Spiritual Leaders with the above titles at the appropriate levels within the jurisdiction described to meet the needs of IICM global ministries.
Further, they will have the right to exercise spiritual authority over the IICM administrative structure within their respective countries and in other countries, states and cities and in the neighboring areas, if they are requested.
The dates of our International, National and Local Conferences will be notified from time to time both through our Monthly Internet "Anointing" Magazine
and also through our Website. |
