Grace Fellowship Orthodox Presbyterian Church is committed to providing a safe, nurturing, and secure environment in which adults and children may worship our God, walk together in love, and work to build up the church and reach out to the world. Unfortunately, the pernicious nature of sin is such that even in a church setting, some individuals may be at risk of being physically or sexually mistreated or abused.
To assure that Grace remains a safe place, the Session adopts this Safe Church Policy. Grace Fellowship does not tolerate sexual abuse or misconduct including molestation, or physical misconduct in the workplace or at any activity sponsored by the church or related to it. To effectuate this Policy, the Board of Trustees shall adopt and maintain procedures requiring background checks, setting prudent limitations on the interactions between adults and children, and mandating annual training. Read the complete policy.
