STAFF/PASTOR-PARISH RELATIONS COMMITTEE (SPPRC)
The Staff/Pastor-Parish Relations Committee (SPPRC) functions as the human resources department of the church and is made up of the pastor, the lay leader, the lay member to annual conference, and nine members who are elected for three-year terms by the charge conference.
The primary role of the Committee is to confer with and counsel the pastor and staff and the Administrative Council and Committee on Lay Leadership on matters pertaining to the effectiveness of ministry and the need for staff to perform the mission of the church. SPPRC evaluates the current staff at least annually. To perform these duties, SPPRC consults with individuals and groups that may include the pastor, the church staff, and chairpersons of other committees who relate to church mission and staff (for example, the Trustees to the custodian, the Worship Committee to musicians). The Committee consults with its district superintendent about congregational needs.
Among the duties of SPPRC are the following:
- Review salary/benefit packages for the staff and send recommendations to the Administrative Council.
- Support continuing education for all staff.
- Identify and support individuals from the congregation whom God seems to be calling for ordained ministry.
- Confer with the congregation and the pastor and staff about ministry direction of the church and inform the congregation about staff responsibilities and any changes in staff.
- Tour and make recommendations about the parsonage.
