Evangelical Church (ECNA) - Governance

Governance

Like other denominations in the Methodist tradition, the principle governing body of the Evangelical Church is a general conference, with delegates from each of six regional conferences. The regional conferences meet annually with delegates from each of the local congregations within their respective territories. The Church does not have bishops, but is led by Conference Superintendents and a General Superintendent, who are elected to fixed terms, and have both pastoral and administrative responsibilities.
