Note regarding formatting changes:
We are currently updating the format of the Pastoral Manual. As the reformatting of individual sections is complete, the links below will point to the updated format. Because some sections will soon reflect substantive changes, the entire PDF containing the manual has become obsolete (and was, therefore, removed from this page). If you have any questions or need assistance, please contact Deacon Ron Walker.
