There are thousands of lay ministers using their gifts in a wide variety of different roles, serving alongside ordained ministers. Youth and children’s ministers, authorised lay ministers, authorised local leaders, licensed lay ministers, and many chaplains, evangelists, missionaries and pioneers are lay people, who are not ordained.
