Governance of the Baptist State Convention of North Carolina is a cooperative activity. It reflects historic principles of Baptists relative to autonomy of the local church, and the desire of churches to work cooperatively in outreach to the world. It involves participation and actions by messengers from cooperating churches at the annual meeting, and includes daily work and management oversight provided throughout the year by those chosen for various leadership positions.
How do Baptists manage this process whereby they maintain local autonomy, work cooperatively and have effective statewide programs? The details are explained in the documents available to download on the right.
