IFCM Ministry Credential Information

International Fellowship of Christian Ministries, Inc. (Since 1998) was founded with the express purpse of uniting men and women of faith and purpose in order to spread the Gospel of Christ in the nations of the world. To accomodate that vision, IFCM's primary function is to offer Ministry Recognition by providing Ministry Credentials and Affiliation.

Our direct purpose is to provide a "spiritual covering" while encouraging the call of God on your life and in your ministry. We endeavor to walk in humility, in a Christ-like manner with all of our affiliate ministries and ministers, always recognizing that God is the Ultimate "Father," and Jesus Christ is the, "Head of the Church." " We believe there are many God-called organizations that offer ministry credentials, of which IFCM is only one.
