Will there be multiple charges for churches?
Q: We were formerly part of a two-point charge with the UMC, and the other church has not disaffiliated. Will we be a station church, or will GMC combine multiple charges on a single charge?
A: This decision resides with each local church, although in order to provide the salary and benefits for a pastor, two-point charges may be in the best interest of all. Soon, churches that will need GMC pastors will receive a consultation form on which the church will share their profile, needs, clergy compensation (salary, benefits, housing, etc), and start date. From this information, we will be able to begin conversations with clergy leaders.
Please go to our website section titled “Go Global” > click on Church > there you will also find a Church Consultation form. This form will help us begin the conversation with your designated church contact person and begin the consultation process to answer many if not all of your questions.
