Each year,
ministers are required to renew their credentials. Credentials are
renewed by completing the renewal form online or the paper version
mailed to each minister in the fall. Forms must be completed and
returned by December 31.
Failure to complete the renewal process by December 31 will result in a $50 late fee. After January 15, you will need to complete the reinstatement process ($150 fee, application, and interview required).
In
order to renew credentials, a minister's dues must be current with the General Secretary's Office and with the South Dakota District. More information regarding dues is available below.
Credential renewal information is provided by the General Secretary's Office each November.
