Policies and Procedures
Sample of Categories
These policies and procedures live out the constitution and bylaws of our church in more specific ways. They may be changed by a vote of the Leadership Team. Important changes should always be discussed thoroughly and may need 2 Leadership Team meetings before enacting it. Changes that impact the congregation in an important way should be communicated in a clear way. Of course, some changes will entail a bylaw amendment – it that case, follow the process outlined in the bylaws.
