2025 MCC Clergy License Renewal

Do it now and save!

EARLY BIRD DEADLINE - NOVEMBER 30th, 2024

Dear Colleagues,


Greetings! This year the licensing process will be coordinated by the team of Rev. Cathy Alexander and Tammy Rabon-Noyce. We look forward to assisting you through the process. 


I celebrate you as the spiritual leaders of MCC churches, chaplains, and communities around the world. I have spoken to many who were searching for opportunities to explore what God may be calling them to. I would love to be in communication with you. Let’s have a conversation. Please contact me if you are anticipating retirement or would like to talk about moving to a different church or ministry.

 

Please read this email for information on the changes and license renewal process updates for the coming year.

DEADLINES, PAYMENT AMOUNTS AND PROCESSING

A NOTE ABOUT LICENSE PROCESSING TIME AND CHANGES 

Please submit your form by the early deadline of 30 November 2024. Your license will be emailed to you as a PDF so please be sure your email address is current. If you need a hard copy to be mailed to you, you may indicate that on the form. You should receive your clergy license before the end of the calendar year. Please complete this process prior to the early deadline.

 

PAYMENT (Canada and US ONLY) 

  • EARLY BIRD: From 1 Oct. 2024 through 30 Nov. 2024 midnight PDT the fee is USD $175.
  • From 1 Dec. 2024 through 28 February 2025 the fee is USD $325.

Both the form and the payment must be received for your license to be completed.

 

For payment in the United States or Canada, you may pay online by clicking this link, or you can mail a check to MCC Clergy License, 18766 John J. Williams Hwy; #382; Rehoboth Beach, DE 19971. We will issue your license once we have received both your completed form and payment. 

 

If payment for your Clergy License is being submitted via PayPal, please ensure that your name is included in the details on the payment. If, however, the Clergy License fee is paid by check, your name must be included in the Memo section of the check. These steps are very important to ensure that fees are applied correctly.
