Strategic Principles
- The individual congregation,
through its members, is the fundamental missionary unit of the Church.
-
The role of Presbytery is to serve the churches in their mission; to
organize for collaborative ministries;
and to carry out the mandates of our constitution.
-
The Presbytery should do no mission that individual churches can do for
themselves.
-
Fruitfulness is as important as Faithfulness.
-
What we count we value.
-
Accountability is a basic requirement for change and growth.
-
Not all
growing churches are healthy but all healthy churches are growing
