Regional Partnership is our new and improved approach to what we previously called Regional Supervision.  Jim Pluimer, a highly effective pastor with a lifetime of experience, has been appointed to oversee Regional Partnership effective January 1st.  We are sending out a more detailed letter to churches on regional supervision but simply know for now that we are very happy to offer greater help to pastors through this new approach. This approach will be implemented over time, one church at a time, over the course of this next year.
