IMPORTANT TO KNOW ABOUT GATHERINGS:
1) ANY NACM MEMBER CAN ATTEND ANY STATE GATHERING! (You don’t have to be a resident of the State in which the Gathering is being held to attend it: NACM members are welcome to any State Gathering from anywhere in the USA or world!)
2) Our NACM ELDERS are the only ones who can officiate and lead a NACM STATE GATHERING: and our NACM ELDERS are the only ones who can preside over and offer ORDINATION CONFIRMATIONS (laying on of hands blessings for already ordained NACM member ministers).
3) Important to understand about ORDINATION CONFIRMATION CEREMONIES (laying-on-of-hands blessing): to participate in an Ordination Confirmation ceremony, an NACM member minister must FIRST be ordained through the online application-approval ordination process. Once you are ordained through the ordination online process, THEN you are welcome to request or participate in a NACM Ordination Confirmation ceremony.
4) The NACM and its Elders are not responsible for providing travel, food or housing costs for attending a NACM Gathering: this is entirely the responsibility of individual NACM members in choosing to attend an NACM Gathering. If a State NACM Elder or sponsoring church chooses to provide food, lodging or travel assistance of their own accord, that is entirely up to a State Elder to do so: but it is never required or asked for them to do so.
Greetings Brother Rodger,
Its been some time since have been on the NACM members site. As we all know Life Happens. I have been struggling with some things this past year. The struggles have been questioning myself in regards to the following.
As my husband and I do our best to serve the Lord as His servant will face challenges and opposition from the enemy. My husband and I are looking for a new Church Home now that our Pastor went to be with the Lord this past week. The congregation is awesome but its been a long distance church home since we moved back to our home town of Granbury, TX from Justin, TX in 2017. Pastor Leo and his wife was so worth the distance. There are good churches here and enjoyed the fellowship and Sermons but my husband and I haven't felt the confirmation from The Spirit saying this one. We have had family and friends come up to us and ask if we could start a small home based bible study/church. I could really use some advice.
God Bless,
Jean Rene Dyer
