There are many ways for congregations to partner and share resources and/or staff. Find the model that works best for your community!

• Branch and Campus (sometimes called “satellite”) models
• Yoked congregations, committed to shared staff and shared programming.
• In partnership models, an existing congregation partners with or creates a distinct covenanted community.
• Merged or Networked models seek to create “one church in multiple locations.” These sites share everything! -their staff, programming, budget, by-laws, board, and most importantly, their mission.
