08 Jan The National Conference Covenant

Every two years, United Brethren churches are required to sign the National Conference Covenant, which includes your affirmation of six statements.

The unsigned covenant was mailed to your church in December. When Bishop Ramsey receives the signed covenant, he’ll sign it and return it to your church. The deadline for returning the covenant: March 15.

By signing the covenant, your church is affirming these six statements:
You are committed to the United Brethren Confession of Faith.

• You agree with the core values of the United Brethren in Christ, International.
• You agree to abide by the Constitution and Discipline of the US National Conference.
• You are passionate about fulfilling the Great Commission through our local church.
• You will support the ministry and mission of the United Brethren Church, USA, through the annual partnership fee.
• You will participate in a cluster.

The covenant is discussed in chapter 15 of the UB Discipline.
