PAULSGROVE BAPTIST CHURCH
POLICIES AND NOTICES
In this section you will find more of the documentation which supports the church activities. A lot of this is legally required so that we meet the requirements of bodies such as the Charity Commission. We are in the process of refreshing this content as part of our transition to a Charitable Incorporated Organisation (CIO) which took effect on 1st January 2024.
We meet regularly as a membership to hear reports from the Leadership team, receive updates on matters in progress and to vote to approve various matters as required by the Rules and Constitution. Minutes of meetings are circulated to Members of the church shortly after the meeting and are reviewed and approved at the following meeting, with an update given of any 'matters arising' from them.
Our next Partners meeting will include the 2024 AGM and will be held on Monday 15th April, 7.30pm.
The Agenda is as follows:
1. Praise & Devotional
