TRANSFORMATION MINISTRY INSTITUTE
“Transforming lives, churches, and cities by sending forth mature Christian leaders for the Kingdom of God"
And He ordained twelve that they should be with him, and that He might send them forth to preach, and to have power to heal sicknesses, and to cast out devils.” Mark 3:14-15 (KJV)
The Transformation Ministry Institute is a non-profit Christian organization that was birthed in 2003 in Tacoma, WA under the original name of Blessed Ministries. In January 2006, JGM-Enternational PrayerLife Institute became the apostolic and prophetic covering over Blessed Ministries and in 2010 the administrative office moved to Los Angeles, CA. After much prayer with the guidance of the Holy Spirit, in January 2017, Blessed Ministries changed its name to Freedom in Christ Christian Fellowship and established Transformation Ministry as an operating ministry under the church. We are affecting lives, churches, cities and nations through prayer, healing, deliverance and standards of excellence in ministerial training. As a ministry, one of the services we provide is to recognize, train, activate and release members of the Body of Christ into full time ministry and validate those callings with prayer, support and standards of excellence in cooperation with their local church. Candidates eligible for licensing/ordination must believe our 20 Statements of Faith. We believe our Ordination Standards division is one of the many ways we fulfill the Great Commission of our Lord Jesus Christ.
God calls and ordains before the foundation of the earth, and that is the first step in understanding ordination. The standards that we have set forth in our application process will help the candidate crystalize the calling upon their lives and affirm their calling. We recognize that every candidate is a unique vessel and has a genuine call upon their lives. Our rigorous standards are intended to challenge the candidate regarding the seriousness of ordination and to prepare the candidate to succeed in the 21st Century on many diverse levels. We are confident and prayerful in our process to prepare ministers of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
