Our Shared Covenant

MEMBERSHIP AGREEMENT

Membership is a mutual commitment. Please read the whole agreement and ask leadership about anything you need to clarify.

Intentional Worshippers gathering

Version 1.0 · 9 August 2026 · Review by 9 December 2026

A clear, mutual understanding between Intentional Worshippers, its leadership and each member. IW is a worship collective, content platform and artist-development community, not yet a record label. We build disciplined worshippers, create excellent multilingual worship content, develop artists, grow our visibility and partnerships, and prepare responsibly for original music, outreach and formal registration as we grow.

What We Agree To

01 / Spiritual culture & conduct

I'll help keep IW a Christ-centred, safe and respectful space. I treat everyone with dignity, and I won't tolerate harassment, bullying, discrimination or dishonesty that harms another member or the group.

02 / Sunday readiness & punctuality

3:00 p.m. is our arrival-and-ready time. I'll confirm by Saturday 6:00 p.m., flag a likely delay before Sunday 2:30 p.m., and give early notice of recurring conflicts. Repeated unexplained lateness or absence may affect that day's lineup, always after a conversation first.

03 / Preparation & excellence

I'll learn my assigned songs before Sunday; rehearsal is for polishing, blending and recording prep, not first-time learning. I'll receive correction well and speak up when I need support.

04 / Contribution & growing together

My contribution is commitment, preparation and support, not compulsory payment. Where I can, I'll share useful contacts, suggest songs with reasons, support official content and help the team grow. As IW grows into visible sponsorship, a wider audience and stronger platforms, leadership intends to put group resources, connections and member support behind individual members' own music and craft; this isn't guaranteed or timed, and any future member contribution or benefit will always be explained, discussed and recorded first.

05 / Authority, partnerships & the group name

I won't speak as the sole voice of IW, promise a feature or partnership, accept a booking, open an account, collect money, or use the group name for a personal project without leadership's sign-off first. Bigger decisions on membership, collaborations, sponsorship and the group name need agreement from both leaders.

06 / Money & sponsorship

Money received for the group or a named project stays with that purpose, not with an individual. It moves through an approved channel, gets documented, and is reported with reasonable transparency. No member spends, borrows, redirects or privately negotiates group funds without approval.

07 / Content, confidentiality & accounts

I won't leak or privately share unreleased audio, video, photos, plans, member details, passwords or private group discussions, post unfinished material, or present my personal opinion as the group's position. Access given for service is returned when asked.

08 / Creative rights, correction & exit

This form transfers no ownership of songs, lyrics, compositions, masters, performances, royalties or publishing. Original music, paid work, credits and revenue shares always need a separate written agreement before release. Concerns are heard respectfully; serious or repeated breaches may lead to a role pause or membership review. A member who leaves returns access and stops presenting as a current representative.

Leadership’s Side of the Agreement

Leadership will communicate plans and changes clearly, apply standards fairly, protect member dignity and personal data, keep honest financial records, give proper credit, avoid exploiting members, hear concerns, and use separate written agreements before original music, paid appearances, sponsorship deliverables or revenue-sharing arrangements.

Recording & Publication Preference

Choose one during registration:

CONSENT — I consent to being photographed and audio/video recorded during approved group activities, and to approved content being published on IW's official channels for reasonable group promotion.

DISCUSS — I'd like a leadership discussion about a specific media limitation before publication. I understand a recording collective may need practical limits agreed in advance.

Personal Data Notice

Details in this form are used for membership administration, communication, scheduling, safety, role planning and content records. Access is limited to authorised leadership, your information isn't sold, and reasonable safeguards are used. It's kept while membership is active and for a reasonable period afterward, unless law, accounting or a dispute needs longer. You can ask to see or correct your details, or raise a privacy concern with leadership.

Term, Review & Acknowledgement

This acknowledgement takes effect when signed. Version 1.0 will be reviewed by 9 December 2026, or earlier if operations materially change; members will be consulted on practical changes and asked to acknowledge material revisions, and new members sign the current version. Membership is voluntary and guarantees no pay, exposure, role, recording place, management, sponsorship or income. A member under 18 needs separate parent/guardian consent. This document does not replace a separate agreement where legal, creative or financial rights are involved.

I've read all three pages, had a chance to ask questions, and understand what's expected.

The information I've supplied is accurate, and I enter this membership voluntarily.
