Starting and building a ministry (or moving from an
existing ministry to form another) is not for everyone,
but if you have it in your heart, IAM will provide the
support systems you need to succeed and grow.
Ministries and causes under IAM receive virtually
every legal and corporate provision necessary to carry
on a successful ministry. As a member you are
immediately considered a non-profit 501(c)3 Corporation. No waiting time, no state and federal regulations to sort
through to submit and await acceptance. We take care of
your banking, payroll, donor receipts, liability
insurance, employee tax, etc. You receive regular
summaries on your expenses, income and donor giving. All
you have to do is minister.
Because you are a member of a ministry community you
can share ideas, network, collaborate on projects and
increase your skills as a ministry leader. You also have
access to mentors and coaches with years of experience
in ministry and business. Additionally, there is
opportunity to receive training in leadership and
ministry practices which will further enhance your
confidence and skills.
Do you already have a 501c3? You can become an
IAM
Affiliate and connect with a wider community of ministry
leaders benefiting from the added advantages mentioned
above.
Professional recognition through IAM Licensing and
Ordination for ministry is also available for members
and affiliates who meet certain guidelines.
Your next step...
International Association of Ministries will
encourage, support and do all the good we can to help
ministries grow and thrive. If you would like to apply
as a member or as an affiliate,
