What is Classis Renewal?
Classis Renewal is an approach to improving the efficiency and ministry of a classis.
Renewal focuses on self-assessment, strategic planning, and determining the mission
focus of a classis (by working through differences to create a mission statement).
Renewal also means that a classis meeting is not just a business meeting, but has a
ministry function of its own; one which should include prayer and spiritual growth.
