Here at Church of God, we have come up with the acronym WORDA. It is the structure of the church that helps maintain its proper functions. It stands for Worship, Outreach, Relationship, Discipleship, and Administration. These are the five departments of the Church of God that work collaboratively to reach lost souls and to bring glory to the Lord of lords. This kind of operational structure first started at COG-Dasmariñas and now, several COG churchses in the Philippines have adapated the same structure as well.
