Do you mean "evangelical"? Go to your local evangelical-free church on Sundays and ask if there are any ministries to join up with. Hope this helps.

Find a place to host it.  Check out the legalities involved.  Have waiver / permission forms including health insurance info.  Ask around for donations of equipment.  Contact local church camps to see if they have a program that you can get ideas from and get some input on the ins and outs and then dive in with open arms!

The Foundation Center has a number of free resources for starting a nonprofit organization and helpful information on successfully applying for grants.\n\nFirst you need to incorporate a nonprofit organization.  From the Foundation Center:\n\nForming a new nonprofit is a process that involves two distinct stages. Generally, you will need to establish your organization by filing articles of incorporation with the appropriate agency in your state (usually the secretary of state). You will also need to secure federal income tax exemption by filing the appropriate forms with the Internal Revenue Service. see whole article and list of resources, including an online tutorial about how to start a nonprofit at http://fdncenter.org/getstarted/faqs/html/starting_nonprofit.html\n\nThe IRS page with information for chaities/nonprofits is here: http://www.irs.gov/charities/index.html

to do the work you are talking about you need a knowledge of local conditions,however there is a dept that deals with overseas positions, write to the govt affairs dept or get info from the nearest overseas consulate to the area you wish to work in for advice. Failing that of course many churches along with aid and red cross agencies also work in many of these places. I would write one letter just changing the heading for each and hit them al;l together that will save hanging around for weeks after each reply you'll get them all together.

How about becoming a legally ordained minister... easiest course in the world. You just give them your name.\n\nThen you can go around absolving people, marrying people and baptizing babies. Its fun!

I found a few links to websites offering grants to Christian or non-profit institutions. The catch is that most of these groups give grants to churches and charities to spend on providing food and services to the community, not to spend on building their own churches. And of course, government grants are completely out of the question, as that is illegal.\n\nYou might try hitting up a Christian advocacy group for a small donation by claiming to be heading up a grassroots campaign for something they're interested in. Or maybe you can talk some megachurch into sponsoring or adopting you if you're in a disadvantaged area. For the most part, however, churchgoers will contribute money to make their own churches bigger but aren't interested in building churches for people who have already been converted to Christianity. Move your church to Pakistan and they might consider!\n\nBest of luck.

a non ordained pastor is a lay minister, he can preach, baptise all he wants.  There are no laws in the US that require a minister to be ordained.  there are denominational rules.  You can be a local Methodist minister if you are not ordained but not on thier pastor listing,   You can start a church of your own and have your members ordain you.\n\nThe only area in the US where there are laws is if you are going to marry someone,  then you have to meet the state laws to marry people,  these vary from none except being a pastor, to strict depending on the state you live in.
