The purpose of this community is to identify, develop, deploy, evaluate, and monitor Christian spiritual leadership for the local congregation. Members of the community shall engage in and be attentive to developing and enhancing their own Christian spiritual life in light of the mission of the Church. The community shall work with the church council, or alternative administrative bodies, to determine the diverse ministry tasks of the congregation and the skills needed for leadership. a) The community on nominations and leadership development shall serve throughout the year to guide the church council on matters regarding the leadership (other than employed staff) of the congregation so as to focus on mission and ministry as the context for service; guide the development and training of spiritual leaders; recruit, nurture, and support spiritual leaders; and assist the church council, or alternative structure, in assessing the changing leadership needs. b) The community shall recommend to the charge conference, at its annual session, the names of people to serve as officers and leaders of designated ministries of the church council, or alternative administrative body required for the work of the church and as the law of the church requires or as the charge conference deems necessary to its work.
