Protocol/Administration

PROTOCOL AND ADMINISTRATION

Protocol - rules of behaviour for formal occasions. Administration - management of the affairs of an organisation. P&A works in cooperation with the other departments of the church to ensure the smooth administration of the church giving advice where necessary to ensure that the church runs on sound biblical methods of church governance. It organises and encourages the complicity to adopted regulations regarding the language of communication, sitting arrangement, timekeeping, good practice, general church cleanliness, religious etiquette, etc thereby creating an atmosphere conducive to proper worship and teaching. In the past, all current Heads of Departments (unless otherwise directed) took turns in familiarizing themselves with this all-important role as Sunday Duty Ministers. *The department produces a Personal Assistant to the Pastors for a stressless church administration, especially during Sunday services. All hands must be on deck in working to aid effective church governance with the head of this department and especially with the PA.
