Relational In many ways the Church Admin is the first impression of the church. We desire for the admin to be warm and loving to all they come in contact with. The context of our church ensures that you will come in contact with both millionaires and homeless, the innocent, and guilty. We desire all our guests to be treated with dignity and respect (James 2:1-13). Team unity is a big priority. Gossip will not be tolerated with staff or others. When issues need to be addressed, we practice godly conflict resolution principles. We also cultivate unity by having periodic staff fellowships. While our goal is to have a monthly staff fellowship, we often fall short. However, when a staff fellowship is scheduled we expect every staff member to make every effort to be present with their family as often as possible. We also have weekly staff meetings; monthly finance meetings; and monthly leadership team meetings; where attendance is also required. We believe family and rest is vitally important. We prioritize family by requiring full-time staff members to take a full 24hr off-day where they are strongly encouraged to not do church related tasks. We hope this day is a time of refreshment and an opportunity to cultivate your immediate family relationships. The exact weekly day off is TBD.
