Welcome Too The Adjutant & Armor Bearers Academy

 The Episcopal Academy is a non-resident school of theology and episcopal order for Bishops', Apostles, Overseers, Adjutants, Armor Bearers, Elders, and Deacons, who are aspiring for the episcopal ordained, consecrated, affirmed, and appointed offices of the Church.  

This course involves a careful examination of the Adjutant and the Armor bearer Corp. giving understanding to the role of the Adjutant with special emphasis on the valuable insights of the ministry of the Armor bearer. It gives spiritual and technical expertise to anointed men and women who are assigned to protect and serve the leadership of the Body of Christ. Adjutant's and Armor bearers are essential in making the office of the bishop administratively sound. This course will introduce clerics to the historical biblical background of Adjutant's and Armor bearer's, their use and standards to which they aid as a servant to their leaders. Clerics are instructed to be inconspicuous as well as have the right motive in serving those of the ecclesiastic order. We orient clerics of the different types of dress and vestments as well as how the consecration of the bishop is to be conducted. This is a 48 Hour Intensive online class with a comprehensive certified exam.
