Commissioned Minister for a term of service, but still must enter into the discernment
and orientation process overseen by the District Ministry Commission.

With the guidance of the district executive/minister, and upon approval of the District
Ministry Commission a congregation may call an ordained minister from another
denomination as interim pastor. This individual is not required to seek membership and
ordination in the Church of the Brethren, but must agree to provide documentation of
ministerial standing and articulate in writing a commitment to teach and uphold the
beliefs, practices, and polity of the Church of the Brethren.
