No, because as I understand it, the UPCI is not going to allow anyone that joins this group to hold a license with them. Bro Haney's recent letter clearly names the PWF as the "enemy".

2.) Are there more guidlines of a minister of that organizaion other then what they laid out in the articles of faith?

The group is still in its formation stages, so there is no definite on whether there will be more guidelines or not.

I also have a question regarding the UPCI.
1.) If you are a pastor of a UPCI church and it is affiliated with the UPCI, and you no longer want to be a minister with that organization, can you just change your organization or do you have to hand over the church to another UPCI minister?

There are several thoughts here. An affiliated church MUST have a UPCI licensed minister pastoring it. IF the Pastor turns in his license, he must relinquish his position as pastor. The other option is that if the church wishes to vote to disaffiliate the church from the UPCI, they can do so, and then the pastor could turn in his license and continue pastoring there.
