Purpose & Leadership

The Apostolic Church is  network of churches which exist to communicate Christ to the nation and, to provide the legal framework to be able to do so, is constituted as a charitable trust.

The leadership of the church is at both national and local level.  There is a national leadership body which exercises responsibility for appointments, policy, legal compliance, church planting and mission.  Each local church has an appointed leader and local leadership team who, together, are responsible to develop an outreach strategy for their local community as well as to create a climate in which each believer will mature to the full expression of the potential that lies within.

​Local leaders relate to the national leadership both directly and through a relational structure intended to provide care, inspiration and encouragement.
