Grievances | YWAM Newcastle

  • Grievance Procedure
  • Access to a just and equitable process for dealing with grievances will be provided at all times.

    The Word of God says, “If it is possible, as far as it depends on you, live at peace with everyone” (Rom. 12:18).

    When conflicts arise, often there is an accuser and an accused. We need to remember to hold each in equal esteem before the Lord. We must not prejudge either side but be open to each, “striving to maintain the bonds of peace” Ephesians 4:1-3.

    In the YWAM family, we are called to live and work together in humility and harmony.

    When conflicts arise, our goal is to bring reconciliation and release for both parties for further service in God’s kingdom. We should not enter into conflict resolution seeking someone to blame or punish. We should seek restoration.

    What personal information do we collect from the people that visit our website?

    YWAM’s procedure in handling grievances includes the following Biblical principles as outlined in the policy:

    • We all need to forgive: if an offense has taken place, the offended must forgive in order to experience healing and restoration.
    • Biblical principles regarding justice: our justice must reflect the justice of God which is shown through his character throughout the Bible.
    • Reconciliation is always a goal of God’s justice.

    At all stages these meetings are informal and conciliatory. The individual’s views will be heard and respected. YWAM’s position and policy will be clearly communicated without prejudice.

    All procedures, agreements and action steps will be recorded and held in confidence.
