Become more efficient with the administrative side of church life to free up resources to work on much needed missions! Consider a streamlined structure like Simplified Accountable Structure (SAS). Three Notch’d District moved to this model in 2023 and so have many of our churches with excellent results.

We offer overview training, initial consulting, and coaching. Books are available and should be purchased from the District. Please let us know how to help! For more information, contact Pam Anderson at pamelaanderson@vaumc.org.
