The Department of Leadership Development is committed to assisting the church:

  • discover lay, pastoral and educational leaders
  • connect leaders to the church in a meaningful relationship, and
  • equip leaders for effective ministry in the world.

Part of this task is accomplished by the office of Leadership Development which works closely with our six Free Methodist colleges and universities.

The office of Ministerial Credentialing assists pastoral candidates seeking ordination in the Free Methodist Church.
