safe church.

Churches of Christ in WA is committed to empowering our churches to champion a safe church culture. 

Cultivating a culture of faithfulness and safety amongst our ministry leaders and their teams. The purpose of Safe Training is to encourage our member churches to implement excellent policies and procedures that create a safe space for everyone.
