In September or October every year, the churches of the association gather for worship and fellowship in our “Annual Meeting.” Also during this meeting, representatives of each church, called “messengers,” hear the annual report from key association ministries, consider for approval the coming year’s financial plan and leadership, and consider pressing needs among our churches. The messengers from the churches have the privilege to vote in this meeting on items brought to the association. In this way, all of our churches have a say in what goes on in Tri-County.

 

Serving as a messenger is both a responsibility and an honor; each member extends God’s Kingdom beyond the four walls of their church by assisting the association accomplish its work in our three counties and beyond.

 

Each church is allocated a certain number of messengers, depending on the number of resident members.
