This policy outlines the EMCC’s approach to credentialing individuals who are divorced or married to someone who has been divorced. While the general policy discourages credentialing under such circumstances, it recognizes that extenuating circumstances may justify an exception.

This Credentialing Policy aligns with EMCC Bylaws, which include the Articles of Faith, the Articles of Governance and the EMCC Board of Directors Members Policy, which provide guiding statements related to credentialing. This policy outlines the various aspects of credentialing, including definitions, types, statuses, assignment categories, requirements, and the process involved in obtaining credentials. It gives guidance on matters of administration, examination, discipline, and reinstatement.

This governing document outlines how the Evangelical Missionary Church of Canada functions as a legal and organized body.

The Evangelical Missionary Church of Canada is an extended family of churches that stands in agreement with the historic teachings of the Christian faith. Our Articles of Faith, while not exhaustive, seek to clarify what we hold as foundational to Christian doctrine in accordance with the life and teaching of Jesus and the Bible.

This policy defines the roles, criteria, and responsibilities for corporate and individual members of the Evangelical Missionary Church of Canada (EMCC), including the process for becoming and remaining a member, and what happens when that membership is reviewed, suspended, or terminated.
