Credentials of the Fellowship
Kingdom Global Fellowship issues ministry credentials to members who meet its approved standards. Every credential is held in the member’s credential vault, and anybody can check it on the public register with the member’s AMI number.
Checked Before They Are Issued
Before a credential is issued, the officer issuing it confirms that the requirements have been met:
- Membership active
- Required training completed
- The waiting period completed
- The required interview and approvals received
- Payment requirements satisfied
- Supporting documents verified
- Identity confirmed
- No governance restriction in place
An ecclesiastical credential
KGF credentials are ecclesiastical credentials, issued by the fellowship to recognise standing and service within Kingdom Global Fellowship.
A KGF credential does not by itself confer an academic degree or accreditation, and does not by itself represent recognition by any government or civil authority.
Credentials You Can Apply For
Credential standards are being prepared
The standards for each credential will be published here. The ordination pathway explains how priesthood credentials and ordination are reached.

How to Apply
Credentials are applied for, reviewed and issued in the member portal, one visible step at a time.
Membership comes first
Credentials are for members of the fellowship. If you are not yet a member, apply for membership; training and credentials follow at the pace the pathway sets.
Meet the standards
Each credential lists its approved standards, the pathway stage that must be complete, and the documents to provide.
Apply in the member portal
Signed-in members choose the credential, attach their documents and sign the declaration. The portal checks eligibility before you start.
Review and approval
Your application is reviewed step by step — beginning with your District Overseer — and you can follow every step, and answer any request for changes, in the portal.
Issue
On final approval the credential is issued and added to your credential vault, ready to print, with a QR code to the public register.
Keeping a Credential Current
Where a credential carries an expiry date, the holder may ask for it to be renewed from the member portal as that date approaches. A holder may also ask for a lost certificate to be replaced. When a replacement is issued, the register records the old credential as withdrawn, so a lost certificate cannot be presented as current.
Anyone Can Check a Credential
Verify with the member’s AMI number — the six-digit membership number, and the only number Kingdom Global Fellowship publishes. Enter it on the public register, or scan the QR code printed on the credential, to see the member’s standing and every credential they hold.
The register confirms standing and credentials and nothing more. It does not publish contact details, membership records, or the reasons behind any decision.
