Please note the following information:
The Universal Life Church does not offer “instant online ordination.” A computer cannot ordain you and you are not issued a credential by a computer.
All requests to become ordained with our church are reviewed for completeness before an ordination can be done legally.
- Please mark email from ulc.net as safe so our important notifications and communications do not enter your spam folder!
- Your request will be reviewed and entered into our church registry at our Headquarters in Modesto, California.
- If your application was complete and the information you submitted is valid, it will be approved.
- You should receive a reply from us regarding confirmation status of your ordination within a few business days.
- The submission date of your application is the date entered into our church records as your official ordination date.
Ordination information is stored in the private registry for our church in Modesto, California. You may request to rescind your ordination at any time, and the church registry will be updated to note the status.
You may order ministry supplies, including your legal documents such as your ordination credential, wallet card, Doctor of Divinity certificate, and other items at our Ministry Supply Store. Your order will be processed as soon as you have been ordained. You do not need to wait until you receive your ordination confirmation.
