Members In Discernment
Exploring your call to ministry can be exciting and a little frightening. It is not a process anyone ever has to navigate alone. The United Church of Christ has a very clear and thorough process. The process begins with membership in a local congregation, then connecting with the congregation’s Association. Ordination and “standing” are handled by Associations. SCNC is made up of 4 Associations: Northern, Central, Southern, and Eastern.
