You should not be so concerned about becoming a platinum member of some church. You should be concerned about being a member of Christ.

Denominational confrontation is such a mystery to me...\nEven if no proofs exist - all of humankind still has God's grace - no matter what your membership status is. Given that, you may end up in hell while I go to heaven - you better watch yourself!

You have to have interviews with your bishop or branch president. During those interviews, he will tell you what things you need to work on before you go. Some things might be money, health issues, moral issues... etc.

Ask the minister. It varies. Some churches do not charge if the person who died was a member.

Contact the national headquarters of your church and see if they are hiring

You need to check the local zoning ordinances.  It's one thing to conduct a weekly bible study or an occasional "worship" service, but quite another thing to run a church from you home.

go to college and get your teaching degree.  If you go for a masters, it will take about 5 year.  During that time,  Prove that you have paid your debt to society and keep out of trouble.  Become active in your church and build good references.

It is actually quite simple.  Just call them and ask to speak to someone about becoming a Freemason.  I don't personally know any of the brothers at that lodge, but almost all lodges are very welcoming for people who are interested in joining.  Just give them a call and arrange to meet with some of the officers.\n\nYou can get the phone number from the website for that lodge at:\nhttp://www.cedarbayoulodge.org/contact_us.htm

It all depends on where you wish to become a Member.\n\nI live in MA so I will give you a few examples.\nPlymouth just built a course,  1 Time fee is $95,000 and there are Dues.  Dues are paid every year.  those are $22,000.  Thats a very high end course.  \n\nThere is also a course in Taunton.  Its $5,000 to joing and $3,000 a Year.  They can go cheaper and they can go more expensive. \n\nIf you give the course a call that you are intrsted in joining they will help you out.  \n\nJust a side note.  Golf Courses are begging for memebers.  There are so many very nice public courses so the private are losing memebers every year.

Go to a local preacher and I'm sure they can tell you how they got licensed, I know a lot of states don't exactly require a license, just the calling to spread the word of God.

I think that you should tune in to God and go where he would lead you!\n\nMaybe he would want to use you in a church with out some of your "qualifications"\n\nIt all depends on your motive.

~Get yourself a mail-order divinity degree and organize a church.  As long as you can itemize your expenses, including salary, transportation, entertainment, secular spending and room and board, you can  pay out as little as 10%.  The Catholics have the corner on this racket, but it is not a closed monopoly.  I do have to hold prayer meeting to Gooblaskeera every third Tuesday, but nobody comes, so it's cool.

After he submits his petition, a committee of men (2 or 3) will be assigned to visit your home, and assure that he is a clean living man.  They will most likely ask you to be there, to make sure that you are okay with his decision. If that goes well, a vote will be held, and if there are no negative votes, he will be allowed to join.  Most lodges hold 1 or 2 meetings per month.  Masons arent required to wear business suits but most do, because it feels appropriate.  In the first three months he may have to spend a bit of time memorizing some "question and answer" material (the olde english he spoke of) that will prove him "proficient" and ready to advance to the next degree. From the moment he becomes a Mason, you become a Mason's Lady, which means that if you find yourself in another city, etc, you will get help from any Mason you can find.  If (God forbid) anything should happen to him, Masonic widows are held in the highest esteem, and are usually taken care of for the rest of their lives.   Thats pretty much what you can expect.  the lodge usually takes 2 or 3 days a month from a man's life, but tries to give it back in every way it can.  hope that answers your questions.  IF you would like to ask me any specific questions (much more can be told than most people want to believe) feel free to email me at pilgrim1033@yahoo.com.  I will answer as honestly and openly as I can, and if you ask a question I cant answer, I will tell you so, and move on to the next question.

Here's some random information I found:\nApparently formed sometime in October of 1832, involving a man named John Bate Cardale. They believe in Holy Sealing (to get the Holy Spirit).They do not pass an offering plate during services. It states that there are over 10 million members, to become one...you would need to go to the bottom link and contact them...\n\n\nAccording to the web you can find out more from the following web sites:

You can ask one of your friends to get ordained by the state. You'd have to check  with your state to see how much the fee is. You could make it special by having a close relative or family friend do it and offer to pay the fee.
