Structure
NCMI is not a group of churches, it is simply a team of apostles, prophets, pastors, teachers and evangelists (Eph 4) who are desiring to help local autonomous churches to grow into all God has for them, subsequently a local church cannot 'join' NCMI. They can however, have relationship with NCMI as a translocal team. When the leadership of a local church chooses to pursue a relationship with NCMI there is no formal membership that they need to sign up for, and no common constitution that has to be adhered to. NCMI believes that its role is to support and help build local church and encourages churches who understand their heart and values, to meet with each other, and learn from each other during the annual Leadership Training Time (LTT) aka Equip conferences organised throughout the world. There are numerous other events in local regions.

—C. Northcote Parkinson (1909–1993)
“A special feature of the structure of our book is the monstrous but perfectly organic part that eavesdropping plays in it.”
—Vladimir Nabokov (1899–1977)
“In the extent and proper structure of the Union, therefore, we behold a republican remedy for the diseases most incident to republican government.”
