Our Father Committees The ministry work of Our Father is accomplished through the following organization structure, which encourages broad participation from our congregational members:
Parish Council – This is the chief governing body of the congregation. It is responsible for all matters pertaining to the legal and general welfare of the congregation including long range and strategic planning. In consultation with the Senior Pastor and Ministry Council, Parish Council develops and approves the annual budget and operating plan for presentation to the congregation at its annual Voters’ Assembly meeting. The Parish Council consists of the Senior Pastor, President, Vice President, Secretary and Treasurer, plus four confirmed members, elected at large by the voters.
Ministry Council – This council is comprised of Ministry Coordinators who are responsible for the implementation and oversight of the ministry and related administrative activities consistent with the annual budget, operating plan and directives as approved by the voters. The council under direct supervision of the Senior Pastor meets at least bimonthly to communicate and coordinate their respective ministry and administrative activities. Ministry Coordinators manage all boards and committees related to their areas. Ministry Coordinators are appointed annually by the Senior Pastor and serve in one of the following areas: Worship, Stewardship, Education, Youth, Special Ministries, Lay Ministry, Fellowship, Member Integration, Outreach, and Property.
Boards and Committees – These are the “worker bees” who do the actual ministry in each of the areas for which they are responsible.
