Polity, Policy & Procedures

DID YOU KNOW?

+That the Constitution we operate under is called “Policy Based Governance”

+That it has its roots in God’s Word which authorizes the procedures of rule and 
        order

+That, also as other congregations of our church body, the Voters Assembly of the    
       congregation is given the primary authority to govern and direct the
       congregation's mission.

+ That the Servant-Leadership Council (SLC) is the governing body of the congregation
         and is responsible to administer all the congregation’s affairs except for several
         important actions

+ That the Senior Pastor is authorized by the Constitution and is accountable to the 
        Congregation through the SLC to organize and oversee all Ministry Teams in
        the congregation

+ That each Ministry Team is asked to initiate its own “Policy & Procedure Manual” that
         is unique to that particular ministry – this is a fluid process since a Ministry 
         Team can change its own Manual to fit its mission
