Amendments to ministry statements
may be initiated by any messenger or by the
SBC Executive Committee. Amendments
may also be initiated by any SBC entity at
any time with the approval of the entity’s
trustees. Conferences with Executive
Committee staff on matters of form and relationship
are desirable. Where relationships
are involved, these are discussed with all
parties concerned before submission to the
Executive Committee. |

Proposed
changes in ministry statements are circulated
to SBC entity executives, state convention
executives, and state Baptist paper editors
before presentation to the Executive Committee
for approval as recommendations to the SBC. |
| C. |
Amendments
are presented to the Cooperative Program
Subcommittee of the Executive Committee and
all parties have opportunity to express their
point of view before that committee makes
its final recommendation to the Executive
Committee. Ministry statement changes
approved by the Executive Committee are recommended
to the Southern Baptist Convention at its
next meeting. |
| D. |
All
ministry changes must be approved by a majority
vote of the messengers present in the Southern
Baptist Convention in session. |
