Each year an Annual General Meeting is held, where MCC Brisbane Members vote on important matters, such as inducting new Board members and hiring new staff. Each year Membership Sessions are held for any attendees to become official Members of MCC Brisbane.
MCC Brisbane has a number of documents, policies and procedures that help govern our church.
Key Documents:
Ways of Working: what we strive to be as a church.
Code of Conduct: the minimum standard of behaviour to which we are accountable.
By-Laws: the laws that outline the system by which our church is governed. This includes (but is not limited to) the minimum terms for board members, new membership, when and how certain congregational meetings are to be organised.
Policies and Procedures:
As of mid-2023, MCC has been undergoing a review of all of these documents and is currently working with BBSafe to improve our safeguarding culture for all in our church community.
