Overture to Amend Synod Bylaw 2.11.2.2(a)
WHEREAS Synod Bylaw 2.11.2.2(a) as worded in the 2013 Handbook does not explicitly grant the ability for a Minister of Religion on Candidate status to remain on Candidate status beyond the stated four-year window; and
WHEREAS such Ministers of Religion may still wish to receive a call and be considered candidates; therefore be it
Resolved that Synod Bylaw 2.11.2.2(a) be amended as follows: “A candidate may continue on the roster for an indefinite period of time by act of the president of the district through which the person holds membership.”
