SVA Church | Partnership Agreement
Thank you for your interest in taking the next step into community here at SVA Church! Instead of referring to our church community as "members" we call each other family & partners - because thats what we are! SVA Church is a body of believers who are committed to seeing people grow into a relationship with Christ. If you share that passion, you can fully engage in the life and community of the church!
Per our church bylaws, by signing this Partnership Agreement you receive voting privileges and a responsibility to engage in key decisions that we make as a church. The main three voting areas are (1) the appointment of a new Lead Pastor, (2) approval of our annual budget, and (3) purchasing of any land.

By signing this Partnership Agreement you are committing to:
- CONNECTION: We believe that true connection with God happens best when we connect with other people. To grow spiritually you have, to be connected relationally. This agreement is a commitment to engage with others in the church community.
- SERVING: We believe when people engage in service, it leads to life change. Whether you serve on a ministry team in our church, in our community, or in the world, God calls us to serve one another.
- INVITING: Jesus doesn't want the church to be an exclusive club. He wants everyone to know him and to follow him. We believe it’s vital that as we become fully engaged in church, we invest in the unchurched people in our lives. That doesn't mean that we treat them as projects it means that we genuinely care about them and get to know what's happening in their lives.
- GIVING: We believe that generosity is at the heart of following Jesus. Your financial support and generosity allow us to create the quality environments that you and your family enjoy on a weekly basis, as well as impact peoples live in our community and all around the world. We don't ask that you give a certain amount, percentage, or frequency - but do challenge you to ask God how your finances can be used to support what He is doing in our community.
