Bylaws

Bylaws are a guiding document for our church and are established to protect the congregation from potential problems. It clearly lays out rules that relate to who makes decisions, what decisions can be made by whom, rights, and expectations. When there are questions about what to do in certain situations, whose responsibility an issue is, or if action taken is appropriate the Bylaws can guide us to the answers to those questions.

The current Bylaws have drawn from the Evangelical Covenant Church's (ECC) Bylaws templates, recommendations from the ECC, Bylaws from other ECC churches, Wellspring's current practice, and what your SLC sees as best practices moving forward.
