Welcome to the ULC Minister's Network

  • I am new here and still trying to figure out how to navigate the site smoothly, quickly, and well enough. Since I just signed up for ordainment, I am uncertain about many things. I an surprised that no courses were required to be ordained, or that one can function as a true miniister in any state, meeting marriage, funeral, baptisms, and so on.

     

    So, colleagues, here are my questions:

     

    1. Have any of you performed any of the above functions I mentoned? If so, were any voided afterwards because the state or other body deneid your ordainment as having been valid, and hence the couple wasn't truly married?

     

    2. Do you get many calls to pefrorm any clerical functions? If so, how often, and how would I know how to charge?

     

    3. Do you call yourselves Reverend, or any other religious title in public, and wear religious garb?

     

    4. Have you ever come across anyone who was/is dissatisfied with this ordainment-granting organization?

     

    5. How do you get business to make use of your ordainment? Do you advertise, send out promotional materials, rely on your websites?

     

     

    Thanks, guys. Being new, I don't know what to expect.
