We hereby publicly express that the purpose of GUTK is to provide spiritually based educational resources to propagate truth, and unite the Children Of God across the African/ Indigenous diaspora. GUTK has taken every effort to design our website to be useful and informative. Hopefully we've accomplished that -- and would ask that you let us know if you would like to see improvements or changes that would make it even easier for you to find the information you need and want.

This site provides a variety of information pertaining to minister ordination, minister licensing, certification, charters, honorary degrees, and ministry in general. Such should not be viewed as legal advice, nor do we guarantee the accuracy of content. While our sincere conviction is to provide the community with truthful, straight-forward facts pertaining to ministry, there is never a time when anyone knows everything (other than God). Therefore the potential for error is ever present during human communication. When changes to our ministry occur, our goal is to communicate these changes. However, it is not possible to be sure that every member of our ministry or even the public will receive our attempts to make such notices. Therefore, we reserve the right to make changes to any or all of our services without notice. Additionally, we make no warranties expressed or implied; this includes but not limited to regulated acceptance of ministerial status, training, privileged access, tax exemption, etc., unless otherwise agreed to in writing with GUTK.

All we ask is that you agree to abide by the following Terms and Conditions. Take a few minutes to look them over; by using this website you automatically agree to the terms herein. Naturally, if you do not agree to the terms and conditions, please do not use the site. We reserve the right to make any modifications that we deem necessary at any time. Please continue to check these terms and conditions to stay updated on future changes. Your continued use of the GUTK website means that you accept those changes.

Thanks again for visiting!
