Testimonies from Ministers Nationwide

God called me a few years ago and I accepted, but I always found myself asking God: “How can I go to school with all that’s on my plate?” I knew school was not a requirement from God, but was taught it was a requirement from men and I did not know how I was going to get around this obstacle. Then God called my husband and I away from the ministry we were serving in and I really got confused, but stepping out on faith, we left.
A few months went by and my husband was searching online and came across NACM, and it changed our lives. My husband had a good conversation with Elder Mooney about what we wanted to do in ministry and he explained to us that only God can call you and that one word blessed us so much. If it was not for NACM we would not be ordained ministers and would not be able to preach the Gospel legally. I just wanted to say thank you for allowing God to give this wonderful gift of edification.

Following my interview with NACM Minister to Elders, Dominic Tuzzo, and subsequent acceptance for ordination, I was commissioned by the laying on of hands at First Baptist Church, Springfield, Illinois. Since then, I have preached numerous sermons and was later ordained by World Evangelism Fellowship. One of the keys that opened the door to all of this was my ordination by NACM. Thank God that there are people who recognize that it is not man who calls a preacher, but God alone.

The NACM is a vessel through which the Holy Spirit can work to empower, educate, and guide those whose hearts burn to serve Christ the Lord and His people. The core values of the NACM are strongly and wonderfully grounded in the Word of God.

I am truly blessed. God led me to the National Association of Christian Ministers, and the ministry team formally acknowledged my calling. The peace and joy I experienced were indescribable. To be a worthy servant of Christ is the highest accolade one can achieve. Thank you NACM for formalizing my calling. Thank You Jesus.

It is an honor and a privilege to be a servant of the Most High God. I praise God for this organized ministry that opens doors for many who are called by God to do kingdom work without being hindered. With NACM’s covering we will work independently but collectively, as our mission is to win souls to the Kingdom of Heaven and glorify God.

When I discovered NACM, I did not know what to expect. Over the years, I have come to respect and admire what this organization does for so many. The network of ministers who support and encourage each other is truly a gift. Thank you.

I thank God for your support and belief in my calling. It feels good knowing you have brothers and sisters watching over you and lending a helping hand. I have signed up for the mentoring program and look forward to gaining knowledge and building relationships. Once again, thank you.

It is an honor and privilege to be part of this organization and to have my calling recognized as an Ordained Independent Minister of the Gospel. I look forward to the fellowship and training provided.

It is an honor to be associated with such an excellent organization. God has shined His face upon me and filled my heart with grace. I know my duty to Him.

I love being a member of this great association of ministers because it is hassle-free, and God gets the glory.
Min. J. Staley shared how NACM empowered him to serve at weddings and funerals, bringing the hope of Christ to families in both joy and grief. He wrote, “Thank You NACM for helping me be approved to be God’s person in Idaho where it is necessary to be a minister.”
Min. M. Darrow said, “The vision of the NACM is not only encouraging; it is a breath of fresh air. NACM is a welcoming Christian entity not at all interested in politics but focused on developing capable ministers of the Gospel.”

The Church’s Mission: Outward-Focused and Christ-Centered
The Church’s mission is outward-focused, grounded in the Great Commission (Matthew 28:18-20). NACM encourages ministers to view every place of influence, home, workplace, and community as part of their mission field, equipping them to serve faithfully wherever God calls.
