Disciples are students.

We will be seeking disciples to study the ways of the kingdom under the guidance of ministers in the network.

Young people, preferably, may apply to His Holy Church if they think they have a calling.

There will be long hours and hard work, private lessons and one on one teaching.

To begin the process write us a letter about who you are and why you want to begin the training.



Have you chosen a Minister to connect you with the rest of the Living Network?

Essay #1: Vocational Intentions

Brief essay addressing your sense of call to a ministry/vocation listing what you think is your unique gifts for this ministry.

Essay #2: Your personal history and hopes

This will include what you have done during your life, where you are now and what you hope to accomplish. The Aspirant Outline will help you organize this information for the record. http://www.hisholychurch.org/ministries/church/orders/Aspirantpacket.pdf

Theological Reflection (Brief)

Use the following questions to address your personal theological reflection on your personal vocation:

1. Address the question "Why His Holy Church?"

2. Grace is central to the message and ministry of Jesus. In what ways do you hope to manifest His virtue?

3. How does God speak this desire for discipleship in you heart to prepare you for the ministry?

4. What will you seek to do if are not accepted to continue your discipleship with His Holy Church?


Matthew 19:21 "Jesus said unto him, If thou wilt be perfect, go [and] sell that thou hast, and give to the poor, and thou shalt have treasure in heaven: and come [and] follow me."

The same is also seen in Mark 10:21 and in Luke 18:22. This idea of giving up all to serve the Lord opens a door that completes the discipleship of Christ.


If you believe in Christ giving up your life will become easy...


John 5:39 "Search the scriptures; for in them ye think ye have eternal life: and they are they which testify of me."


Jesus is talking about the testimony of the Old Testament because that was the scripture then. And the Pharisees had twisted it so that though they studied they did not know what they read and did not know Christ when he came.

Many Christians today might not know Christ.


John 6:54 "Whoso eateth my flesh, and drinketh my blood, hath eternal life; and I will raise him up at the last day."


“The real difference in the believer who follows Christ and has mortified his will and died after the old man in Christ, is that he is more clearly aware than other men of the rebelliousness and perennial pride of the flesh, he is conscious of his sloth and self-indulgence and knows that his arrogance must be eradicated. Hence there is a need for daily self-discipline.” ― Dietrich Bonhoeffer, The Cost of Discipleship
