• Congregations function completely anonymous as far as the following matters are concerned:

• Finances
• Management
• Decisions
• Choice of leaders
• Congregational functions
• Liability for any legal consequences

• The Affiliated Congregations can apply for a Marriage Confirmation Certificate at the Department of Domestic Affairs via Living Word Brummeria.

• The ministers/pastors of Affiliated Congregations should strive to attend the meeting of Affiliated Congregations once every quarter.

• Affiliated Congregations are welcome to contact Living Word Brummeria for:

• Assistance in decision making
• Input in problem situations

• Affiliated Congregations are to always consider Living Word’s heart and tenets concerning standpoints,  doctrines and behaviour, so that Living Word and the Kingdom will suffer no harm.

• Affiliated Congregations will under no circumstances degrade or attack any other denominations and/or pastors.

• Affiliated Congregations will always reach out to other pastors, congregations and denominations in the city to promote unity and co-operation and advance the Kingdom in the town/city involved.
