Earlier this week Jan De Lange, CCCNZ National Advisor, along with Tim Hodge, CCCNZ South Island Regional Enabler, ran two Risk & Liability workshops in Invercargill. This is to help elders, deacons and trustees consider changes in charities legislation and establish appropriate responses for their own local churches.
Tim says:
"It was a joy to serve Edendale Christian Fellowship, Elles Road Bible Chapel, Gore Christian Fellowship, Rosedale Bible Chapel and Southern Bible Fellowship."

Jan comments:
"It was an honour to assist these Southland churches with updates around the legal governance aspect of church leadership, and it's encouraging to see teams grappling with the next steps in their own contexts."
