Annual Review Forms

PARISH ASSOCIATE ANNUAL REVIEW

A parish associate is a minister who serves in some validated ministry other than the local parish, or is a member-a-large, or is retired, but who wishes to maintain a relationship with a particular church or churches in keeping with ordination to the ministry of Word and Sacrament.

The Committee on Ministry shall review the designation once each year to insure:

    (1) that the time and energy required as a parish associate will not interfere unduly with the work of the person in his or her principal function;

    (2) that installed leadership of the particular church be protected in its effective functioning;

    (3) that the parish associate continue to meet the criteria for continuing membership in the presbytery based on other than this relationship to a particular church. Book of Order G-14.0515 a & c
