Organizational Structure

The AIC Church in general is organized into five administrative councils: the Local Church Council, the District Church Council, the Regional Church Council, the Area Church Council and the Central Church Council.

The Local Church Council, which is comprised of a chairman who normally should be the pastor in charge of the local church, and several elders, is responsible for reaching out to the lost, disciplining errant church members, and supervising the affairs and property of the local congregation.

The Area Church Council gives oversight to ministerial activities in the several Regional Church Councils that together form the Area Church Council. The Area Church Council members are drawn from each of the Region Church Councils and the chairman is also an ordained pastor of the church.
