Get Ordained in Hawaii – A Testimony

Hi everyone, or should I say Aloha! I’m Marci Muraoka, and I live in Hawaii. So many opportunities come with being an Ordained Minister with Christian Leaders Alliance.  Initially, I wanted to serve in a church, but my strength in prayer is growing, leading me to consider the role of a prayer minister. However, the role of a chaplain also attracts me, particularly the prospect of helping the sick and dying, either in a hospital or by visiting people’s homes. The options are vast, so I’ll trust the Lord’s guidance to lead me on the right path.

I’m focusing my ministry efforts at home. My twin boys are eight, and I’m eager to educate them about Our Heavenly Father, Lord Jesus Christ, and the Holy Spirit. I’ve been teaching my boys about prayer and the importance of communicating with the Lord every day. Our prayer meetings and Bible studies have been instrumental in fostering spiritual growth in my family and me.

To all the professors who made this program accessible to all of us students, I am sincerely appreciative. I had plans to pursue a degree in ministry – a future goal to further my education. However, I cannot thank you and everyone here enough for bringing me this far and making my dream come true. I previously thought this might not be possible, but now I see that when there’s a will, there’s God’s way. I am profoundly grateful to Him and to all of you.

The most significant prayer I could ever ask for is His guidance to direct me where I need to be. I am so grateful for everything you’ve done for me and all your encouragement when I received an award or completed a class. Once again, my heart overflows with gratitude to the Lord and all of you. May God bless you with countless blessings for all you do.
