How does a church become a part of the Association of Independent Methodists?
Read the AIM Articles of Belief and be in doctrinal agreement with them.
Believe that the Bible is the inspired, infallible, inerrant, and authoritative Word of God.
Schedule a vote to join AIM.
If your church votes to join AIM, request a membership application, complete, and return to the AIM along with a copy of the minutes where your church voted to join AIM.
The AIM Executive Committee will review your application. If a member of the Executive Committee or one of its representatives has not visited your church an onsite visit will be scheduled.
Once approved by the Executive Committee the church is officially recognized as a member church.
There is no fee to join.
How does a minister apply for credentials?
Request an Application for Credentials either by phone, email, or click here and in the comment or message box type Request Application for Credentials.
Fill it out completely and return it to our office with a non-refundable $50.00 Application Fee.
Once the application for credentials is returned, the background check completed and the personal references returned, it will be reviewed by the AIM Pastor-Parish Relations Committee.
If the Pastor-Parish Relations Committee deems that one meets the criteria in personal spirituality, theology, family, ministry training, experience, and education, then a time for an interview will be scheduled, either via zoom or in person.
If approved, your credentials will be valid at the time of your active ministry in an AIM ministry or approved ministry and will be officially presented at the next annual meeting.
The things that the Pastor-Parish Relations Committee will be looking for are: personal spirituality, conservative Wesleyan Theology, solid functional family (if married) and not hindered with indebtedness.
