For ministers already credentialed through another recognized organization who desire relational covering and fellowship with Mt. Zion.
The Affiliate Endorsement is designed for pastors, ministers, missionaries, and leaders who already hold valid credentials from an outside denomination, network, or ministry body. Rather than repeating a full credentialing process, Affiliate Endorsement provides a streamlined way to join the Mt. Zion Ministry Fellowship while honoring the credentials they already carry.
This endorsement creates a relational and accountability connection—offering community, pastoral support, doctrinal alignment, and ministry partnership without requiring the full pathway of Commissioning or Ordination.
Ministers credentialed through another recognized organization
Pastors leading churches or ministries outside Mt. Zion
Missionaries, chaplains, counselors, and leaders who desire additional covering
Bi-vocational or marketplace ministers seeking a Spirit-filled community of peers
Fellowship with Mt. Zion’s network of ministers
Access to ministerial support, coaching, and pastoral covering
Accountability to Mt. Zion’s shared standards of doctrine and character
Ability to participate in Ministerial Gatherings, trainings, and Fellowship events
Optional pathway to pursue Commissioning or Ordination at a later time
While Affiliate Endorsement does not require the full credentialing process, the following are expected:
Submission of a brief application
Verification of current credentials from another organization
Alignment with Mt. Zion’s Statement of Faith
Agreement to uphold the ethical standards and relational commitments of the Fellowship
Interview or conversation with a member of the Credentialing & Endorsement Committee
The goal is simple: to provide a spiritual home for ministers who desire community, accountability, and partnershipwithout duplicating the credentialing they have already received. It is a relational pathway—not a developmental one—designed for connection, covering, and shared mission.
