View Article  Welcome to the Ministry Referral Exchange Service!

The Ministry Referral Exchange Service is a ministry to those associated with the independent Bible and Baptist churches. This is a FREE service designed to introduce contacts to each other. This is accomplished through a Personnel Profile (those seeking ministries) and Positions Profile (those seeking personnel). Both profiles provide basic information from which either party may directly contact the other. Organizations may request resumes from those providing Personnel Profiles and personnel may send their resumes to those providing Position Profiles. This allows both parties to have greater freedom to share current materials and a greater control and involvement in the process.

Each agency has a database of both personnel and position profiles that meet their screening criteria. These are private databases and not viewable except to those who are approved and have received passwords. Personnel can only view position profiles and organizations can only view personnel profiles within the agency they applied under.

You are encouraged to submit a Profile/Application to each agency.

Profiles posted are not an official endorsement by the corresponding agency. Those providing profiles have been screened for doctrinal integrity, but you must conduct a thorough screening to determine the qualifications of those listed that may meet your requirements. You are encouraged to avail yourself to the free resources offered below to help you with the screening process.
