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,
to cover the cost of outfit, ceremony etc. |
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. |
