Policies & Bylaws
Accessibility Policy
As a Christian organization, MCEC believes that all persons, irrespective of disabilities or limitations, are equal before God and deserving of hospitality, dignity, respect, and, to the extent possible, access to goods and services provided by MCEC. In light of this commitment, MCEC recognizes the diverse needs of all Constituents and strives to provide services and facilities that are accessible to all.
Plan to Protect Policy / Safe Spaces Policy
In order to grow as communities of grace, joy and peace, MCEC events must provide an environment in which children and youth can grow physically, emotionally and spiritually. The risk of physical, sexual or emotional abuse is absolutely minimized through policies, often referred to as Safe Spaces policies, that outline expectations of positive relational boundaries between MCEC staff and/or volunteers and the children or youth at MCEC events. There will be no tolerance for abuse, harassment or neglect by staff and/or volunteers working with children and youth at MCEC events.
Privacy Policy
At MCEC, respecting privacy and personal information has always been an important part of our commitment to our constituents, employees and contractors. The objective of the MCEC Privacy Policy is to promote responsible and transparent personal information management practices in a manner consistent with the provisions of The Personal Information Protection and Electronic Documents Act Canada (“PIPEDA”).
Leadership Policies
MCEC and MC Canada have policies, guidelines and resource "packets" to help ministering persons and congregations navigate pastoral ministry and the congregation.
