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 by November 2. Forms must be completed and
returned by November 30.
Failure to complete the renewal process by submitting your online form OR by mailing your paper form into the District Office on time 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 emailed to each minister by the General Secretary's Office each late October or early November.
