National UCC releases a "Manual on Local Church"

The thirty-second General Synod resolved that a working group representative of the whole denomination would be convened to, along with discerning language and possible revisions to Article V of the Constitution of the United Church of Christ, produce a Manual on Local Church, akin to the Manual on Ministry, (for authorized - Ordained Ministers,) the Manual on Local Church is

for use by all settings of the Church to fully live into their covenantal responsibilities and privileges under the Constitution of the United Church of Christ.

The Manual on Local Church (MLC) is now available for download!

Note: This Manual is advisory at this time for the churches of the Association. It will be the subject of the Fall Association General Meeting in October. At an annouced and noticed time after that, the Manual will come into use for the Association.
