POLICY DOCUMENTS (will be added as updated)
In any church, it is important to have well-thought-out policies and procedures, both to prevent anything untoward from happening to begin with, and to help everyone (especially new people and leaders) know how things are “done” at Bethel.
This is a “work in progress”. Do not hesitate to contact Carmen, our Church Administrator, should you have any questions, comments or suggestions.
SECTION A – ETHICS, Conflict of Interest, Whistleblower and Privacy – coming soon
The aim of these policies is as follows:
- Ethics – to ensure that everything that is done at Bethel answers both of the questions, “Can we do this?” AND “Ought we do this?”
- Conflict of Interest – to ensure that no staff member, leader or volunteer at Bethel benefits financially or materially from their involvement with the church in an unethical manner
- Whistleblower – to ensure that any staff member, leader or volunteer feels free to address any situation without fear of reprisals from supervisors or other leaders
SECTION B – FACILITY – Heating/Cooling, Security, Cleaning, Insurance and Rental
All things relating to the Bethel building itself, including rentals to outside groups.
SECTION C – FINANCES – coming soon
All things relating to the Bethel Finances, including our banking, loans, benevolent fund
This is the Bethel Missions policy which includes things like how missionaries are financed, Bethel’s responsibility to them and their reponsibility to us and so forth.
