Maranatha Ministerial Fellowship, Int'l. - was
birthed out of the need for spiritual covering
and connectedness for new ministries coming forth from Maranatha
Christian Church in
Williston
,
Vermont
. Founded upon the apostolic ministry and model of Bishop Rick Callahan
and governed by an Apostolic Board, MMFI is a ministerial fellowship
that licenses, ordains, inspires, and equips dozens of men and women in
their Kingdom calling in many nations of the world. |

Connectedness without Control
The two essential elements that MMFI seeks to provide are covering and
connection. Covering supplies safety, accountability, and direction.
Connnection supplies the vital contacts for growth and expression. MMFI
desires to "come alongside" committed men and women to
strengthen their Kingdom calling. Together we not only acheive our
destiny in God, but also make the blessing of the journey that much
greater. |
The Antioch
Model for Ministry
A Model for Ministry. Acts 14 relates the founding of the church
at Antioch. This church was of great significance to the
Early
Church
and has been of
particular importance to the founding of MMFI.Antioch
was the first apostolic church of the Bible that ministered
cross-culturally. The
gospel was preached, and a new church was planted.
Disciples were made, strengthened and encouraged. Local leadership was
set in place.
This church then became the launching pad and support
station for missionary endeavors.
Though no pattern or model of ministry is required of those who minister
in MMFI, certainly the leadership of the fellowship has been influenced
by the Biblical pattern of the Antioch
church.
