Hope Ministry Action Teams (shareHOPE Teams) Basics:

BY-LAW 10: MINISTRY ACTION TEAMS (now shareHOPE Teams)

Ministry Action Teams (MATs) are groups of Hope Lutheran Church and School volunteers created either by the Board of Directors, Board of Elders, or ministry staff to help fulfill some aspect of the strategic plan then in place. Any person connected with Hope Lutheran Church and School can serve on a MAT. A regular attender or school parent who is not a Hope Lutheran Church member may serve, so long as in doing so they agree to serve according to the beliefs and stated mission of the church as articulated in the preamble and Article II of the Constitution. Any member of the Congregational Assembly can lead a MAT. In the area of school ministry, the principal is empowered to designate school parents who are not members of Hope Lutheran Church to lead MATs so long as in doing so they agree to serve according to the beliefs and stated mission of the church as articulated in the preamble and Article II of the Constitution. All MATs will be responsible to the ministry staff person or Board which created it for direction, encouragement, training, and accountability.
