Memoranda of Understanding
|
|
|
A memorandum of understanding formalizes the agreement between ANiC and its members. ANiC has identified four types of congregations and local ministries. Each has a different Memorandum of Understanding:
• Parish
• Church plant
• Project
• Mission
Generally speaking
A Project is a small, forming congregation which may or may not meet regularly on Sundays and likely does not have a full-time clergy person.
A Church plant has become financially viable, meets regularly on Sundays, employs a full or part-time pastor licenced by ANiC, has a governance structure, has obtained appropriate insurance, and has implemented needed financial controls.
A Parish has become incorporated, has received charitable tax status, and has annual general members’ (vestry) meetings.
A Mission is focused on community service ministries, rather than congregational development.
MOUs may be requested from the ANiC office.
