 Vision and Expectations: Ordained Ministers in the ELCA
Ordained ministers of this church are to confess and teach the authoritative and normative character of the Scriptures "as the inspired Word of God and the authoritative source and norm of its proclamation, faith, and life" (ELCA Constitution, 2.03).
The church in which you are to be ordained confesses that the Holy Scriptures are the Word of God and are the norm of its faith and life.
Ordained ministers are called to be faithful to Jesus Christ, knowledgeable of the Word of God and the Confessions of this church, respectful of the people of God, and responsive to the needs of a changing world.

 Holy Orders - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Notable denominations who ordain women in the USA include Episcopalians, Presbyterians (PCUSA), Lutherans (ELCA), the United Church of Christ, the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ), and the United Methodist Church although there are others.
In most branches of the Anglican church, women can be ordained as priests, but usually cannot be ordained a bishop.
The non-authoritarian religious denominations such as Spiritual Humanism, and the Universal Life Church prefer to empower their clergy by minimizing the impediments to those that feel the calling to make a spiritual connection to the cosmos.

 Principles for the Orderly Exchange of Ordained Ministers of Word and Sacrament
Similarly, an ordained minister of this church serving in another church body remains on the roster of this church and is accountable to the synodical bishop of the synod in which rostered.
An ordained minister of a church body with which a relationship of full communion exists may be asked to preach or administer the sacraments in an ELCA congregation on an occasional basis with the authorization of the synodical bishop.
An ordained minister of a church body with which a relationship of full communion exists may be invited by the synodical bishop to serve as the pastor of an ELCA congregation for an extended period of time, yet remain an ordained minister of another church body.

 CATHOLIC ENCYCLOPEDIA: Holy Orders
As Christ did not ordain His Apostles by imposition of hands, it would seem that He left to the Church the power of determining by which particular rite the power and grace should be conferred.
This was modified by Pope Gelasius (492), according to whom a layman who had been a monk might be ordained priest after one year, thus allowing three months to elapse between each ordination, and a layman who had not been a monk might be ordained priest after eighteen months.
No bishop may ordain those not belonging to his diocese by reason of birth, domicile, benefice, or familiaritas, without dimissorial letters from the candidate's bishop.

 CIN - Instruction on Certain Questions Regarding the Collaboration of the Non-Ordained Faithful in the Sacred Ministry ...
The ordained ministry, therefore, is established on the foundation of the Apostles for the upbuilding of the Church: (33) "and is completely at the service of the Church".(34) "Intrinsically linked to the sacramental nature of ecclesial ministry is its character of service.
The functions of the ordained minister, taken as a whole, constitute a single indivisible unity in virtue of their singular foundation in Christ.(36) As with Christ,(37) salvific activity is one and unique.
The Code, having referred to the rights and duties of all the faithful,(46) in the subsequent title devoted to the rights and duties of the lay faithful, treats not only of those which are theirs in virtue of their secular condition,(47) but also of those tasks and functions which are not exclusively theirs.

 Local woman to be ordained priest in unsanctioned Catholic service - The Boston Globe - Boston.com - Local - News
She will be ordained a Catholic priest today in Canada.
She knew, of course, that Catholic women could not become priests, but she also thought life in a convent was not for her, so she simply set aside the notion that one day she might wear a collar and consecrate the Eucharist.
The Vatican and other church officials, insisting that women cannot be ordained as priests, say these ceremonies are not valid.

 BBC NEWS World Europe Catholic women in unofficial ordination
Nine women have been ordained as Roman Catholic priests in a secret ceremony in Austria on Saturday which could lead to their excommunication from the church.
The ceremony was conducted by Argentine Archbishop Romulo Braschi, who was himself ordained as a Roman Catholic priest but has since joined a church not recognised by the Vatican.
The group, who include several pioneer theologians, argue that the Church's refusal to ordain women has no basis in the scriptures.

 Pilot Stories - 5/30/2003 - Nine ordained to the priesthood
The hands of each of the newly ordained were anointed with the Oil of Chrism as Bishop Lennon prayed, “The Father anointed our Lord Jesus Christ through the power of the Holy Spirit.
Following the distribution of communion, prior to the end of the liturgy, each of the newly ordained priests was given his first assignment.
Standing before a cathedral packed with family members, fellow seminarians, hundreds of priests and deacons, and a multitude of friends looking on, nine men — seven from St. John Seminary and two from Blessed John XXIII National Seminary — were ordained to the priesthood on May 24 at the Cathedral of the Holy Cross.

 Seven women ‘ordained’ priests June 29
Braschi claims to have been ordained a bishop twice: once by fellow Argentine Roberto Padin in 1998, described as a prelate in the breakaway “Catholic-Apostolic Church of Brasil,” and again by Jeronimo Podestá in January 1999.
Church authorities rejected both the credentials of the bishops and the validity of the ordinations, based on the teaching that the Catholic church has no power to ordain women as priests.
Braschi previously ordained his wife, Alicia Carbera Braschi, as a priest.

 Ordained Ministry
This ministry usually happens in a congregation where the ordained minister empowers the people of God, teaches, leads worship, preaches, and administers the sacraments and rites of the church.
People thinking about ordained ministry are encouraged to approach their local congregation to set up a Discernment Committee at least 18 months before enrolling in theological school.
The United Church provides remuneration for this experience along with travel expenses.

 Boston.com / News / Local / Mass. / Bishop urges gay ban in clergy
Bishop John M. D'Arcy, who in private letters to other church officials as early as 1978 questioned the reassignment of priests accused of sexual misconduct, said yesterday that the church must improve its screening process for accepting seminarians and that homosexuals should be prohibited from being ordained as priests.
D'Arcy said that if the church can bring men to seminaries who have the right temperament for the job, those priests will attract more good men to work for the church.
''We must be very careful of who we accept in the seminary and who we ordain as priests," D'Arcy told parishioners at Our Lady of the Presentation Church, the Brighton parish in which he grew up.

 Is God Less Glorious Because He Ordained that Evil Be?
So the answer to the question in the title of this message, "Is God less glorious because he ordained that evil be?" is no, just the opposite.
This is a fundamental truth that helps explain some perplexing things in the Bible, namely, that God often expresses his will to be one way, and then acts to bring about another state of affairs.
And if the knowledge of him be imperfect, the happiness of the creature must be proportionably imperfect.

 SBC to cease endorsing ordained female chaplain
NAMB trustees affirmed their support for women serving in chaplaincy roles that could not be considered that of "pastor." Such women are "called and gifted to serve in many caring roles and have a tremendous role in evangelism and spiritual care as they minister in the midst of crises," trustees said.
Although denying endorsement to ordained women, the SBC will continue to endorse non-ordained women who affirm the 2000 Baptist Faith and Message.
The message local churches need to understand is that NAMB may no longer endorse some of the individuals those churches believe God has called to the chaplaincy ministry, Smith said.

 Encyclopedia Coptica: The Christian Coptic Orthodox Church Of Egypt
The Coptic Orthodox Church's clergy is headed by the Pope of Alexandria and includes Bishops who oversee the priests ordained in their dioceses.
Both the Pope and the Bishops must be monks; they are all members of the Coptic Orthodox Holy Synod (Council), which meets regularly to oversee matters of faith and pastorship in the Church.
The direct pastoral responsibility of Coptic congregations in any of these dioceses falls on Priests, who must be married and must attend the Catechetical School before being ordained.
