The Articles of an ecclesiastical corporation can be amended by the affirmative vote of a majority of the members entitled to vote

majority is required by the rules of discipline or by the church policy in any particular case, that requirement controls.

Item 5 - The notice given to members that a meeting is scheduled at which adoption of the amendment will be considered. The

wording should be as it appeared in the church bulletin, paper, notice, or as announced from the pulpit. The notice must be to the

Item 6 - Must be completed to reflect the number of members present at the meeting. This must be members of the corporation,

not just members of the board of directors or other select group.
