| dc.description.abstract | The article defines conversion as a process of change manage-ment. The Reformed Presbyterian Church exhibits a growth model which is about organic growth and development where-by new members are mostly recruited among the children of members. Children are groomed from baptism through Sunday school and confirmation classes to membership in full commu-nion. For them conversion is a process of growth and develop-ment in which they keep on learning all the time about their faith and who they are. | en |
