Apply

Fill out the Application for Alliance Ministry at cmalliance.org/serve to begin the formal process of candidate accreditation. This entails completing a personal and a doctrinal questionnaire, submitting character references, taking a biblical knowledge exam, and completing several additional forms, depending upon your area of ministry interest.

You can work on the application over several weeks or at a more gradual pace during the summer or school year. The Doctrinal Questionnaire is the most challenging part of the application, but it’s a great way to clarify what you believe as you prepare to become an Alliance Worker.

Get Accredited

After completing the application, you will undergo a two-hour accreditation interview with Alliance staff. Again, the focus will be on your development in the Five Core Characteristics of an Alliance worker. We will review with you the Qualifications for Alliance ministry, per Section E-3 in the Alliance Manual, while confirming and recommending next steps in your spiritual leadership journey. (Note: Although not everyone is approved for vocational service with the C&MA, our desire is to help you find a good fit in accomplishing God’s work.)
