Join The Crete Collective
Join The Crete Collective
in 5 simple steps
Step 1: Read and Apply
Step 2:
Regional Orientation
Churches interested to join The Crete Collective are invited to join us for one of our regular regional orientations where we provide more detail on The Crete Collective, including our mission and vision, our priorities and values, how we hope to plant and revitalize churches, and membership requirements. This will be a time for potential partner churches to get to know us and to ask questions.
Then, assuming agreement with our statement of faith and covenant, we invite churches to complete an online application to join.
Step 3. Membership Interview
Step 4: Sign the Covenant
Upon approval from the membership interview, we ask the elders from applying churches to read the covenant again and, if in agreement with membership obligations, sign the covenant on behalf of the church.
Step 5: Board Confirmation
After receiving the signed covenant, the church’s application is presented to The Crete Collective’s board of directors for final approval. Once approved, the applying church becomes a member of The Crete Collective in full partnership with us to start new and support existing churches in neglected Black and Brown neighborhoods.
