CHURCH LEADERSHIP

Many churches struggle with implementing a Biblical expression of Elders and Deacons which understand their differing roles and which co-operate together. We help churches put a biblical leadership structure in place.

PARTNERSHIPS

We don’t do everything that a local church needs help with so the right partnerships are crucial.

PASTOR SEARCH COMMITTEES

We give help to churches, helping them find a good pastor or helping a pastor find a good church. And when we don’t know, we’ll try find out who does.
