About Us

Our Core Values

Our ministry is built on core values that shape every aspect of our work and community:

• Inclusivity – All are welcome. We embrace people from every background and walk of life, believing the family of faith is open to everyone. No matter who you are or where you come from, you have a home here.
• Spiritual Growth – Grow in faith. We are committed to nurturing each person’s spiritual journey. Through prayer, learning, and encouragement, we help individuals deepen their relationship with God and discover greater purpose and strength in their lives.
• Community Support – Stronger together. We value the power of community and fellowship. Just as the early Church shared their talents and resources for the good of all, we work together to support one another and our neighbors in need. By sharing our gifts and bearing each other’s burdens, we build a stronger, more compassionate community.
• Service – Love in action. We believe faith is best expressed through humble service to others. Following the example of Christ’s love, we encourage acts of kindness, outreach, and compassion in our church and beyond. Serving others is not only our duty but our joy, as we shine light in the world through love.

Our Services

Freedom In Ministry Network Church provides comprehensive services to equip and empower ministry leaders. Whether you’re just starting out or expanding an existing ministry, we offer support every step of the way:

• Minister Ordination – Answer your calling by becoming a fully ordained minister. FIMNC’s ordination program trains and credentials you as a member of the clergy, legally empowering you to officiate ceremonies and lead ministry in your community. We make the ordination process accessible and meaningful, so you can step into ministry with confidence.
  
  
• Church & Ministry Chartering – Launch your own faith community through our 508(c)(1)(A) chartering program. We offer a “done-for-you” process to help you establish a Faith-Based Organization (FBO) – essentially chartering your new church or ministry under the special 508(c)(1)(A) status. This service provides the legal foundation and guidance you need to get your ministry started on solid ground, with all the benefits and protections of being a recognized church.
  
  
• Faith-Based Training – Grow in leadership and ministry skills with our comprehensive training programs. From theology and pastoral care to organizational management and community outreach, we cover all aspects of effective ministry. Our goal is to equip you with both the spiritual insight and practical know-how to thrive in your ministry. Through workshops, resources, and one-on-one consulting, we help you build a strong, sustainable ministry that truly makes an impact.

Our Unique Approach: Embracing 508(c)(1)(A) Freedom

One thing that makes FIMNC unique is our commitment to true freedom in ministry. We operate under a special designation afforded by 26 US Code § 508(c)(1)(A) and § 6033(a)(3)(A)(i), which acknowledges churches as inherently tax-exempt and independent from many of the constraints that typical 501(c)(3) nonprofits face.

What does this mean? In practical terms, it means our church (and those we help charter) enjoy the benefits of tax exemption, freedom of speech in the pulpit, and no burdensome reporting requirements that could hinder our message. We believe this 508(c)(1)(A) status is a way of honoring the First Amendment guarantee of true separation of church and state, allowing us to preach and serve without fear of government interference.

Not only do we cherish this freedom for ourselves, but we also help other ministries embrace it. FIMNC serves as a guide for churches and faith-based organizations seeking to establish themselves under 508(c)(1)(A) and reclaim their voice in society. Through our consulting and support, we assist ministries in obtaining this status so they can operate boldly according to their convictions – just as America’s founders intended for people of faith. By empowering ministries with these freedoms, we enable them to focus on what truly matters: sharing their faith, helping communities, and changing lives without unnecessary restrictions.

Freedom In Ministry Network Church was chartered in 2022 as a Free Church and Convention of Churches under 26 US Code § 508(c)(1)(A) and § 6033(a)(3)(A)(i), in alignment with the First Amendment of the U.S. Constitution, "the supreme law of the land." which states:

"Congress shall make no law respecting an establishment of religion, or prohibiting the free exercise thereof; or abridging the freedom of speech, or of the press; or the right of the people peaceably to assemble, and to petition the government for a redress of grievances."

As a Free Church, we are autonomous and sovereign, operated by our Ecclesiastical Tribunal concerning all entitlements and endeavors.

As a Convention of Churches, we have the authority to license, commission and ordain Ministers, and charter other autonomous Faith Based Organizations (FBO).
