EWF Ministries - Get Ordained Online!

The Ethiopian World Federation Ministries believes that everyone should be afforded equal freedom to exercise their religious beliefs – whatever those beliefs may be. This first amendment right, granted by the U.S. Constitution, includes the freedom to become ordained as a minister without jumping through numerous hoops and taking expensive courses.

The EWF provides ordinations entirely free of charge to anyone that seeks to join as a financial member. Once ordained, you have the right to perform weddings, baptisms, and other ceremonies. Officiating a ceremony is a tremendous honor, and great responsibility. To assist you, we offer an array of tips, tools, and custom made materials.

By becoming a EWF Minister, you'll also be joining a vast and spiritually-diverse community of people. Whether you're still defining your religious philosophy, or have a highly-developed understanding of your spirituality – the EWF community is an inclusive place which encourages the expression of beliefs and the sharing of ideas.
