Proposed amendment to the bylaws of Berkeley Covenant Church: Chair of Pastoral Relations Committee

The following amendment has been proposed to Article V, Section 5 and Article VI, Section 3 of the bylaws of Berkeley Covenant Church. It was presented in writing at the 17 April 2005 quarterly congregational business meeting. It is to be presented in writing at the board meeting on Thursday 28 April, and voted upon at our annual meeting Sunday 26 June.

The proposal is to change the word "chairman" to "vice chairman" in both sections. Text to be added is printed below in bold italic type.
