Ordination is the acknowledgment and commission by a community of believers that a person has been called to ministry.

The root meaning of ordination. In general as well as Biblical terms, the word "ordain" comes from the Greek word "diatassō" which means to "appoint".In general as well as Biblical terms the word "minister" comes from the Greek word "diakoneō" which means to be a servant (in the strictest since it means to wait upon tables).

When the two words are combined, "ordained minister" - we get the definition "to appoint one to serve, or appointed servant".
