BEFORE YOU REACH OUT
A thoughtful start.
A clear next step.
Are covering and fellowship affiliation the same?
A personal spiritual covering inquiry is distinct from an INGF affiliation or credentialing application. Covering is considered through a discernment process and is not established by submitting an inquiry. The conversation may lead to further fellowship steps if approved.
What should I include in my inquiry?
Include your name, ministry or church, location, current ministry role, area of interest, and preferred contact information. For appointments, include preferred dates, times, and your time zone.
Does an inquiry or a course confirm membership or credentials?
No. Inquiries begin a conversation. Membership, covering, credentials, and appointments require their respective review and approval processes. IGKLI academic study does not automatically confer INGF ecclesiastical recognition.
Where can I find current events or gathering information?
Ask the Executive Office for current fellowship announcements and approved gathering information. Confirm the date, location, and time zone before making arrangements.
