Ministry Update Item

January 2009

Submitted on:  02/09/2010 10:52 PM

We started the year 2009 with our annual ordination service. We realize that ordinations come from God (John 15:16).  Ordination is for those INWM/WOV members that have started their own ministries and are going forward in the work of the Lord. We release them into their
calling by setting them apart by the laying on of hands (Matt:18-19).

At the end of the ordination process we present them with a prayer shawl to symbolize the prayer covering that they are coming under as one being ordained by INWM. This shawl is also presented to remind them that when they look upon it they are to remember the commandments of the Lord and do them. To seek not after their own will but rather seek the will of the Lord
(Numbers 15:37-41).
