We Serve You While You Serve Others.
Navigating life in ministry can feel overwhelming—but you don’t have to do it alone.
International Ministerial Fellowship (IMF) serves pastors, chaplains, missionaries, ministry leaders, and churches. We believe the "call" to ministry is not limited to a specific level of education.
Credentialing • Supporting • Equipping
Serving 10,000 + individuals in ministry, including over 50 missionaries.
You can apply in any ministry capacity — we offer different classifications based on your field. Chaplains, for example, must be working in a corporate, medical, or military setting, since this role requires additional certification. Missionaries need a clearly defined mission field and must use our mission services as a sending agency. If you're already a missionary and only need credentialing, general membership is the right fit.
