International Affiliates
Church bodies listed in this section relate to Rosedale Network as international affiliates. A Rosedale Network international affiliate is a church body with a formal relationship with Rosedale Network and with a geographic location other than in the United States or Canada. The origin or initiation of the relationship can be the result of the ministries of Rosedale International as an agency of Rosedale Network, the outreach of Rosedale Network congregations or individuals, or the application of an existing church body.
The following provisions apply to the international affiliate relationship:
- The affiliate subscribes to the Conservative Mennonite Statement of Theology (1991).
- The affiliation is a primary association with priority over any other affiliation which the affiliate may hold.
- The affiliation is fraternal in character. The affiliate is not under Rosedale Network or vice versa.
- The purpose of the affiliation is for identity, encouragement, enrichment, mutual admonition, and cross-cultural awareness of the international scene of conservative Anabaptist persuasion, teaching, and lifestyle.
- The affiliation is entered into by action of the appropriate decision-making bodies of the affiliate and of Rosedale Network as attested by appropriate signatures.
- The affiliation may be terminated per decision of either party.
