The student must apply through a vocational statement and portfolio submission, as well as successfully completing a background check. You can find my 1st Circle Portfolio here. 

  
I have completed the CTP First Circle, and my application for ordination has been approved.  I received the following message from Rev. Kirk Thomas, the current Arch Druid for ADF:

"Congratulations, Rev. Amber Doty! The Officers of the Clergy Council have approved your request for ordination as an ADF Priest." 

I was ordained by Rev. Jean Pagano in Topeka, Kansas on April 11, 2015.  I am honored to have the opportunity to serve the folk, and look forward to seeing what the future holds.
