Canadian Shield Regional Council has responsibility for maintaining the lists of:

  1. Ministry Personnel who are retired or not currently serving in calls or appointments, but meet the requirements of the Church as being available to offer leadership on behalf of The United Church of Canada and in good standing; and,
  2. Lay Worship Leaders who are licensed by the Regional Council as leaders available, trained, and equipped to lead in worship.
