MCC Bylaws Submission Procedure
The MCC Bylaws is MCC's primary governance document. It is
important that all Lay Delegates and Clergy Delegates to General
Conference be able to participate fully in the governance of MCC, which
includes being able to consider proposed changes to the MCC Bylaws.
According to the Procedures for Submitting Bylaw Proposals (MCC
Bylaws Addendum 1), in order for a Bylaw amendment procedure to be
considered by the General Conference,
the proposal must be sponsored by either:
1. A majority vote of the Board of
Elders;
2. A majority vote of the Board of
Administration; or
3. A two-third (2/3) vote of one-third (1/3) or
more of the Regional Conferences.
Updated Bylaws Submission Procedures
are available online.
