MBCM Town Hall for a Constitution Review

October 19, 2021

In April of this year the MBCM board approved a committee to begin a review and offer a revision of the MBCM constitution. This committee (details on this team are in the FAQ document below) has met regularly over the last 5 months in order to prepare a first draft of their proposed changes.

We hosted a Town Hall Meeting on October 27, 2021 to introduce and discuss the review teams recommended changes to the MBCM Constitution.

Below, you will find four downloadable documents that have been prepared by the Constitution Committee to be reviewed beforehand.

FAQ – MBCM Constitution Revisions – This document will provide insight and understanding as to why we are doing this at this time.
2008 Constitution – Our current constitution.
2021 Draft of Constitution – New revised version.
Summary of Changes document – This document walks through each change step by step giving its location in the 2021 Draft, the current wording, new wording and the explanation of why we are making this change.

The meeting will be facilitated by the review committee and will be 1 1/2 hours in length. We are hoping to have at least one representative from each MBCM church in attendance, however more are certainly welcome. If possible, come prepared to the Town Hall with any questions regarding the changes.

If you are interested in attending, please connect with your church. Zoom link provided closer to the date.

The next opportunity to review and discuss will be at the Council of Representatives (aka Regional Meeting) on November 13.

In preparation for the Town Hall, the Constitution & Bylaw Review Team (details on this team in the FAQ document) has prepared and compiled a few documents for you to review.
