making straight the way of the LORD.
The word services is defined, "Employment in duties or work for another, as for a government: ... A government branch or department and its employees: the diplomatic service." American Heritage Dictionary.
The earliest form of the Church were the Apostles, meaning the ambassadors, and the 120 names of the upper room who came out at Pentecost preaching the kingdom of heaven was at hand. They had their work cut out for them as they baptized thousands of people who accepted Yeshua the Christ as their king. Everyone who did this was cast out of the welfare and social security system set up by Herod the Great and the Pharisees and needed to establish a new system in accordance with the perfect law of liberty.
These followers of the Christ that would become known as Christians were no longer unequally yoked with the Pharisees and their system of compelled contributions but they needed some system that held them together with faith hope and charity without neglecting the daily ministration to the needy of their society, living in the world but not of it.
We see them organizing themselves, working and providing essential governmental services in Acts 6 and 11 that had been the province of Herod and the Pharisees. This was simply returning to the ancient ways taught by Abraham and Moses centuries before. Services of the Church were practical ways of keeping the people free so that they did not have to apply to or pray at the Nicolaitian altars of Nimrod, Pharaoh, Caesar and other authoritarian benefactors of the past, present or future.
The kingdom of God and the Church that serves it is first a spiritual creation where God is writing upon our hearts and minds. The world cannot see spiritual things so it is important to mark the boundaries of the Church, and therefore the Kingdom of God, with markers the world can see and recognize.
This is the purpose of bearing and authenticating your relationship to the world through Church Records. Those records mark the boundary of those who live in the world but not of it.
We offer forms, documents and records to aid the world in general, individuals and ministers in perceiving or understanding the nature, duties and boundaries of the Church in its purest and original form. These systems of documentation and record keeping are designed to bring all closer to the precept upon precept presented by God to man through the prophets and Jesus Christ. Their essential characteristics and nature are to aid those seeking the kingdom and its righteousness whereby we live in the world, but not of it.
We also offer hands on personalized assistance in the re-formation of existing Churches and the establishment of home churches and congregations, as well as specific and general assistance in the formation of Charitable Auxiliary Churches, Out Reach Programs, and Church property and fund management. Part of this process is the networking of independent Churches into broad systems of charitable works which maintains individual and local control for the good and blessings of the kingdom of God..
To aid this process we offer a broad range of services, materials and assistance to give individuals, ministers, congregations, and orders of Churches a chance to discuss, implement and practice these early precepts of the Church in the edification of the Kingdom of God.
Ministry Records of the Church have always been a part of a charitable and functioning network in order to bear witness to the social and governmental operation of the Church and the congregation of the people. The Epistles themselves were often letters of introduction of ministers from one congregation to the other. We offer the production of uniform documents for the identification of ministers in the performance of their duties.
We offer a Record of Ordination of ministers who have either worked consistently with the Church as commissioned ministers or licensed ministers of the Church and other congregations and have shown sufficiency to be proficient in ability, practice and knowledge of the teachings of Christ. This includes the formation and networking of autonomous orders of the Church.

Family Archival Records of Births/Baptisms, Marriages, Deaths and other Family Records. Record keeping has always been an essential function of the community of God and therefore the Church.
The extent of this record keeping process has a far reaching effect into the free exercise of family values, community function and religious practices. It is very important in the fulfillment of the daily ministration without neglect and offering essential services on both a local and national level. Jesus preached a kingdom, not just isolated churches and congregations. There is only one Church, which is the body of Christ. His Holy Church is non denominational in its approach and focuses it efforts on bringing the people together in faith, hope and charity under the perfect law of liberty working out your own salvation with fear and trembling.
May the brethren of His Holy Church be of service to you in your pilgrimage to discover the Truth, the Way and the Life.
