How does the proposed structure help my congregation? What are some of the ways the Regional Council of Churches (RCC) can help my congregation?
The proposed structure is designed to enhance congregational health, providing a framework for the following: (1) A concentration of priority provincial action on vital ministries and assistance to congregations in developing healthy characteristics (2) A means by which congregations through provincial lines of communication and/or polity can ensure that real congregational needs are identified and become a part of the Synod visioning and strategic development process as well as directing the assistance provided by provincial entities. The connections between the congregations, the RCC and the BCM facilitate communication between congregations and provincial ministries. Importantly, the RCCs can help build up the body of Christ in individual congregations by sharing ideas and best practices, through cooperative interaction arising from shared resources and programs for specific ministries and missions.
