Welcome to Bethany Community Church
Dear Staff Member,
On behalf of all of us at Bethany Community Church, I welcome you!
I think you will find us to be a unique group. We believe that work should be more than
just a way to make a living; rather, we think that the efforts of each member of our staff
should lead to personal growth and fulfillment. We strive for perfection, knowing we can
always improve. It will be part of your responsibility to let us know if we are falling short of
this goal.
To maintain an effective organization, some rules and procedures are necessary. We strive to
keep bureaucracy to a minimum. However, certain standards apply to every individual on
staff. Bethany Community Church emphasizes behavior with high integrity and solid
principles. This guide emphasizes that there can be no deviation from the basic rules. As
Christians and as church-workers, we would not want it any other way.
Please note that the statements in this handbook do not create an employment
contract or any binding obligation on Bethany Community Church. They are intended
to serve as a guide to employee conduct. You are expected to follow these policies
and rules throughout your employment with BCC.
Please read this handbook and refer to it as questions arise. You are encouraged to ask
questions if you require further clarification.
Welcome to the Team!
Richard Dahlstrom
Senior Pastor,
Bethany Community Church
