Structure
NCMI is not a group of churches, it is simply a team of apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers and evangelists (Eph 4) who are desiring to help local autonomous churches to grow into all God has for them, subsequently a local church cannot 'join' NCMI. They can however, have relationship with NCMI as a translocal team. When the leadership of a local church chooses to pursue a relationship with NCMI there is no formal membership that they need to sign up for, and no common constitution that has to be adhered to. NCMI believes that its role is to support and help build local church and encourages churches who understand their heart and values, to meet with each other, and learn from each other during the annual Leadership Training Time (LTT) aka Equip conferences organised throughout the world. There are numerous other events in local regions.

Famous quotes containing the word structure:
“... the structure of a page of good prose is, analyzed logically, not something frozen but the vibrating of a bridge, which changes with every step one takes on it.”
—Robert Musil (1880–1942)
“What is the most rigorous law of our being? Growth. No smallest atom of our moral, mental, or physical structure can stand still a year. It grows—it must grow; nothing can prevent it.”
—Mark Twain [Samuel Langhorne Clemens] (1835–1910)
“Man is more disposed to domination than freedom; and a structure of dominion not only gladdens the eye of the master who rears and protects it, but even its servants are uplifted by the thought that they are members of a whole, which rises high above the life and strength of single generations.”
—Karl Wilhelm Von Humboldt (1767–1835)
