Handbooks

No matter how good your training is, questions will arise in people's minds about aspects of serving in your church. A comprehensive handbook will answer those questions. Documenting your policies clearly will also help minimize liability issues when problems arise. It's important to note, though, that from a legal standpoint if you don't train workers on the handbook and enforce its principles, it's worse than not having one at all!

In addition to providing you with these samples from other churches, we have put together a template you can use for creation of your own handbook:

All of the tool documents except certificates are stored in "Rich Text Format", also called RTF. This format can be used by nearly all word processors, no matter what type of computer you have. Certificates are stored in Acrobat format, and require the free Adobe Reader.

To download any document, PC users should right click on the document's link and choose "Save Target As...". For Mac users, hold down the control button on your keyboard, click on the link and choose the "Download link to disk" option from the menu to save items to your computer.

Before using the documents in this section, please read our disclaimer.
