Membership
The Connection is established to provide an unified context for conceiving, nurturing, and building relationships with pastors of local churches and leaders of translocal ministries that desire the ministry of a Spiritual Father, and value personal accountability and responsibility, and the cause of unity in the Body of Christ. As a resource network, the Connection shall be committed to providing information, structure, and support to encourage and facilitate vision fulfillment and the mutual strengthening of ministries. WHAT ICC IS - The international Covenant Connection is a relational network of fathered pastors and ministers who share common Kingdom goals, Scriptural values and beliefs, and a commitment to provide mutual support and fellowship, encouragement, and vision strengthening in covenant relationships. WHAT ICC IS NOT - Although an annual convocation will be held to promote mutual edification, fellowship, and the cause of unity, the International Covenant Connection is not a denomination or a central governing body; therefore, ICC shall not have any legally binding authority or rule over any local church or ministry. MEMBERSHIP COMMITMENTS - Membership is offered to pastors of local churches and ministers who head translocal ministries. Local churches and ministries may be associated and benefit from ICC only through the memberships of their pastor or ministry leader. MEMBERSHIP COST - Monthly membership costs may be paid by: (1) each pastor or ministry leader giving an amount each month from his/her personal income; or, (2) each local church or ministry contributing a monthly offering amount based upon the church's or ministry's financial ability. ICC suggests a monthly amount equal to a minimum of 2% but not to exceed a maximum of 10%. The monthly membership amounts will be used to support administrative operations and the delivery of services. Local churches and other ministries will assuredly benefit and receive value-adds through the memberships of their pastor or ministry leader.
