HOW DECISIONS ARE MADE

The final authority on important decisions lies with the members of Plymouth Covenant Church, not with ministers, officers, or the denomination. Church members direct our mission, approve an annual budget, and elect our Shepherds and Trustees. Congregational business meetings are held about once or twice a year following the weekend worship services. On special occasions, the Shepherd Team will invite the congregation to a dialogue meeting where we can discuss proposals and prayerfully discern God’s will together.
