The Office of Vocation ensures faithful, well-equipped, and effective ministry personnel, where inquirers are encouraged, candidates for vocational ministry grow in learning and competency and where ministry personnel vocation is nurtured and supported throughout their active service, and where allegations of ministry personnel misconduct are dealt with quickly and fairly and action taken for the well-being of ministry personnel and communities of faith. The Board and Office of Vocation are critical and valuable components of our strategy to call up, form, and support deep, bold, and daring ministry leadership in our denomination.
