What Is an Order?
An order is covenant community within the church to mutually support, care for, and hold accountable its members for the sake of the life and mission of the church. This order seeks to respond to the spiritual hunger among clergy during this stressful time of change in the Church, and for a deepening relationship with God. (taken from Paragraph 311, page 192)
