CONSTITUTION
Preamble
For the more certain preservation and security of the principles of our faith and to the end
that this body may be governed in an orderly manner and for the purpose of preserving
the liberties inherent in each individual member of this church and the freedom of action of
this body with respect to its relation to our churches of the same faith, we do declare and
establish this constitution.
Article I: Name
This body will be known as the PHILIPPINE INTERNATIONAL BIBLE CHURCH of
Montgomery County, Maryland, Inc.
Article II: Statements of Faith
We accept the Statements of Faith commonly adopted by Bible-believing evangelical
churches, particularly by the Southern Baptist Convention, and published in a pamphlet
entitled, The Baptist Faith and Message in 1963. The salient articles include the following:
The Scriptures: The Holy Bible is God's revelation of Himself to humankind. It is a perfect
treasure of divine instruction. It has God for its author, salvation for its end, and truth,
without any mixture of error, for its matter.
God: There is only one living and true God who reveals Himself to us as Father, Son, and
Holy Spirit, with distinct personal attributes, but without division of nature, essence, or
being.
God as Father reigns with providential care over His universe, His creatures, and the flow
of the stream of human history according to the purposes of His grace.
Christ is the eternal Son of God. He was born of a virgin taking upon Himself full human
nature yet without sin. He died for us sinners, was buried, rose again and ascended into
heaven. He is now exalted at the right hand of God where He is the One Mediator
between God and humankind. He will return in power and glory to judge the world and to
consummate His redemptive mission. He now dwells in all believers as the living and ever
present Lord.
The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God. He convicts sinners of sin, of righteousness and of
judgment. He effects regeneration, baptizes all believers into the body of Christ, indwells
and comforts believers, cultivates Christian character, and bestows spiritual gifts for
service.
Man. God created man in His own image. By his own free choice man fell from his original
innocence whereby all of his posterity inherits a nature and an environment inclined
toward sin, and as soon as they are capable of moral action become transgressors and
under condemnation.
Salvation involves the redemption of the whole person. In its broadest sense salvation
includes regeneration, sanctification, and glorification. Election is the gracious purpose of
God, according to which He regenerates, sanctifies, and glorifies sinners. It is consistent
with the free agency and comprehends all the means in connection with the end. All true
believers endure to the end.
The Church is a local body of baptized believers who are associated by
covenant in the faith and fellowship of the gospel, observing the two ordinances of Christ,
committed to His teachings, exercising the gifts, rights, and privileges invested in them by
His Word, and seeking to extend the gospel to the ends of the earth. The New Testament
speaks also of the church as the body of Christ
which includes all of the redeemed of all the ages.
Christian baptism is the immersion of a believer in water in the name of the Father, the
Son, and the Holy Spirit. It is an act of obedience symbolizing the believer's faith in a
crucified, buried, and risen Savior, the believer's death to sin, the burial of the old life, and
the resurrection to walk in newness of life in Christ.
The Lord's Supper is a symbolic act of obedience whereby members of the
church, through partaking of the bread and the fruit of the vine memorialize the death of
the Redeemer and anticipate His second coming.
Last Things. God, in His own time and in His own way, will bring the world to its
appropriate end. Jesus Christ will return personally and visibly in glory to the earth; the
dead will be raised; and Christ will judge all in righteousness. The unrighteous will be
consigned to Hell, the place of everlasting punishment. The righteous in their resurrected
and glorified bodies will receive their reward and will dwell forever in Heaven with the Lord.
Stewardship. God is the source of all blessings, temporal and spiritual; all that we are and
have we owe to Him. Christians have a spiritual debtorship to the whole world, a holy
trusteeship in the gospel, and a binding stewardship in their possessions. They are
therefore under obligation to serve Him with their time, talents, and material possessions,
and should recognize all these as entrusted to them to use for the glory of God and for
helping others. According to the Scriptures, Christians should contribute of their means
cheerfully, regularly, systematically, proportionately, and liberally for the advancement of
the Redeemer's cause on earth.
Article III: Church Covenant
Having been led, as we believe, by the Spirit of God, to receive the Lord Jesus Christ as
our Savior and, on the profession of our faith, having been baptized in the name of the
Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, we do now in the presence of God and this
assembly most solemnly and joyfully enter into a covenant with one another as one body
in Christ.
We engage, therefore, with help of the Holy Spirit, to walk together in Christian love; to
strive for the advancement of this church in knowledge, holiness and comfort; to promote
its prosperity and spirituality; to sustain its worship, ordinances, discipline, and doctrines;
to contribute cheerfully and regularly to the support of the ministry, the expenses of the
church, the relief of the poor and the spread of the gospel through all nations.
We also engage to maintain family and secret devotions; to educate our children
religiously; to seek the salvation of our kindred and acquaintances; to walk
circumspectly in the world; to strive to be just in our dealings, faithful in our engagements,
and exemplary in our conduct; to avoid all tattling, backbiting and
excessive anger; to abstain from practices that would, in any manner, be harmful to our
bodies or that would be a detriment to our Christian witness; and to be zealous in our
efforts to advance the kingdom of our Savior. We further engage to watch over one
another in Christian love; to remember each other in prayer, to aid each other in sickness
and distress; to cultivate Christian sympathy in feeling and courtesy in speech; to be slow
to take offense, but always ready for reconciliation and mindful of the rules of our Savior to
secure it without delay.
We, moreover, engage that when we depart from this place and body of believers, we will,
as soon as possible, unite with another church, where we can carry out the spirit of this
covenant and the principles of God’s Word.
Article IV: Character
Section 1. Polity. The government of the church is vested in the body of believers who
compose it. It is subject to the control of no other ecclesiastical body, but it recognizes
and sustains the obligations of mutual counsel and cooperation, which are common
among evangelical churches, particularly the Southern Baptist churches.
Section 2. Doctrine. This church receives the Scripture as its authority in matters of faith
and practice. Its understanding of Christian truth as contained therein is in essential
accord with the belief of Southern Baptist churches as indicated in the Articles of Faith
herein mentioned.
Section 3. Affiliation. This church is affiliated with the Montgomery Baptist Association,
the Baptist Convention of Maryland, the Southern Baptist Convention and the Baptist
World Alliance.
BYLAWS
Article I. Membership
Section 1. Qualifications. The membership of this church will consist of such persons who
have made a profession of personal faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord; who desire
to be numbered among His disciples in this church; who have experienced New Testament
baptism by immersion; and who are in sympathy with the faith and practices of this church.
Membership in this church will be attained as follows:
Ø By the ordinance of baptism by immersion after profession of faith in Christ
Ø By letter of recommendation from a church of like faith and practice
Ø By statement of Christian experience and baptism when a letter is unobtainable
Ø By restoration to membership after having been excluded
Section 2. Duties. Members are expected, first of all, to be faithful in all the duties
essential to the Christian life, to attend habitually the services of this church, to give
regularly to its support and its causes, to share in its causes and its organized work, and
to work within the guidelines of the Constitution & Bylaws, policies and procedures of this
church.
Section 3. Rights. Each member present at a regularly scheduled or properly called
business meeting will be entitled to act and vote in transactions of the church. Absentee
balloting is permitted when provisions for such have been made.
Section 4. Termination of Membership. The continuance of membership will be subject to
the principles of usages of congregational evangelical churches, and
especially as follows:
Ø Any member in good standing who desires a letter of dismissal and
recommendation to any other church of like faith is entitled to receive it upon his or her
request. In case of departure to another community, he or she should promptly make such
request. This letter will be valid as a recommendation for only six months from its date,
unless renewed, and this restriction will be
stated in the letter.
Ø If a member in good standing requests to be released from his or her covenant
obligations to his or her church for reasons which the church may finally deem
satisfactory, after it will have patiently and kindly endeavored to secure his or her
continuance in its fellowship, such request may be granted, and his or her membership
terminated.
Ø All requests for termination of membership or action related thereto will first be
considered by the deacons and the Membership Committee, who will make
recommendation to the church. In the absence of the deacons’ body or the Membership
Committee, the Church Council makes the recommendations.
Ø The church may also vote to terminate the membership of persons for
being nonresident for one year, or for the same space of time not habitually worshiping
with the church, or for the same space, not contributing to its support according to the
system prescribed by the church.
* Should a member become an offense to the church and to its good name
by reason of immoral or unchristian conduct, or by persistent breach of his or her
covenant vows, or nonsupport of the church, the church may terminate his or her
membership, but only after due notice and hearing, and after faithful efforts have been
made to bring such members to repentance and amendment.
Ø Termination of membership by the church will be communicated by letter
after the meeting when the recommendation for such action is made.
Section 5. Restoration of Membership. Any person whose membership has
been terminated for any offense may be restored by vote of the church upon reapplication
and examination by the Membership Committee, upon evidence of his or her repentance
and reformation or, if on account of continued absence, upon satisfactory explanation.
Section 6. Voting on Termination and Restoration. All voting on the termination and
restoration of membership in the church will be done by ballots in order to protect all
parties concerned. The results of such voting should be made known in the same meeting.
Section 7. Associate Membership. Believers who, for some acceptable reasons, feel they
cannot comply with all the requirements for regular church membership may be
considered by the membership committee for associate membership in the church upon
their request and presentation. Associate members have the privilege of sharing in the
ordinances of the Lord’s Supper, holding church offices not specifically excluded by this
section, and all other such privileges pertaining to regular church membership. Associate
members will not hold the office of pastor, deacon, or the offices designated to sit in the
church council.
Article II. Church Officers
Section 1. Pastor. A pastor will be chosen and called by the church
whenever a vacancy occurs. His election will take place at a meeting called for that
purpose, of which at least one week’s public notice will be given. A Pulpit Search
Committee will be appointed by the church to seek out a suitable pastor, and its
recommendation will constitute a nomination. The committee will bring to the consideration
of the church only one person at a time. No other nominee will be invited or considered
unless preceding the nominee is heard and turned down by the congregation. Election will
be by ballot; affirmative votes of three-fourths of those present being necessary for a
choice.
The pastor will serve until the relationship is terminated by mutual consent. The pastor will
have charge of the welfare and oversight of the church. He will preside at all meetings of
the church, except as hereinafter provided. As the spiritual leader of the church, unless
he delegates any of his responsibilities, the pastor will perform the following duties:
Ø To devote a considerable amount of time and effort to the ministry of
the word and prayer
Ø To lead the members in the proclamation of the gospel in word and in
daily living
Ø To care for persons in the church and community
Ø To provide administrative leadership for the church
Ø To provide leadership in congregational services
Ø To conduct weddings, funerals, and other special services for the
church and community
Ø To work closely with the deacons and other church leaders in the training and
performance of their job of proclaiming, caring, and building up of the body
Ø To direct the Church Council in its coordination of the total church
program
Ø To provide the staff training and supervision
Ø To serve as the Public Relation Officer of the church
Section 2. Associate Pastors. Associate Pastors may be elected by the church as the
need arises. Their activities will be under the direction of the pastor.
Section 3. Deacons. Number, Election, Terms of Service. (1) Whenever
possible, a minimum of two deacons will serve at all times in the church. As the
membership grows there will be elected one deacon for each ten families on the resident
church roll. When the number of deacons reaches six, this proportion of number of
deacons for church membership will be proportionately changed until there is one deacon
for five families. It will be pertinent to the church to promote to honorary life membership
any deacon who, by reason of age or infirmities and after honorable service, are no
longer able to render active service.
(2) In the absence of a deacon’s body the pastor appoints two other leaders who will serve
with him as the screening body for nominees in the deaconship. This body then submits
to the church a list of the deacon’s qualifications and responsibilities as provided herewith,
along with the names of all male members of the church. The church, having decided on
the number of deacons needed, then votes by secret ballots by numbering the names of
the list according to
priority. Without revealing the results, the screening body interviews privately those with
higher number of votes. If they agree to serve, these are finally presented to the church
as the elected deacons.
(3) A rotating system will be instituted so that the number completing the term of office will
not all be in one year. According to the number of votes received, some will be declared
elected for a term of service of three years, others for two years, and the rest for one
year. After serving for one term no deacon will be eligible for reelection until the lapse of
at least one year. [This limitation is lifted
when there are no qualified and/or available candidates.]
(4) The interim screening body may recommend the ordination or installation of the new
deacons. Once existing, the deacons’ committee serves as the screening group for the
future deacons, who will be elected through the same procedure explained therein.
Qualifications. The word deacon means “a servant.” Since to be a deacon
means to be involved in selfless service, a nominee needs to meet certain standards
which befit a spiritual servant. As expounded in Acts 6:1-6, 8:4-40; 1 Tim. 3:1-13; and
Titus 1-2, a person must be striving to please the Lord with a life committed to meet the
following Christian virtues.
(1) Spiritually, he must be full of the Holy Spirit. That is, his life is not ruled by his temper,
but is continually displaying the control of the Spirit of God. He must be growing in
wisdom, as it were, in the ability to perceive objectively and to make mature and impartial
decisions. Concerning his faith, he must be an example of trust in God and in others, able
to see beyond the present.
(2) Morally, a deacon will be one who is known for his good character and commendable
Christian spirit, which are necessary for a person to gain the respect of others. He needs
to be honest and sincere in his word, not double-tongued or gossiper. God’s Word and
human society uphold that a godly man, like a deacon, should not have any part in a
strong drink. On the matter of stewardship, he should inspire and challenge others
through faithfulness in financially supporting his church as well as in the godly use of what
he keeps for himself.
(3) Since a part of his ministry is teaching the Word whenever possible, a deacon of this
church must know and understand, and is able to support with Scripture, the major
teachings of the Bible as set forth in the statement of faith herewith.
(4) If married, he must be one who is faithful to his wife and is free from all appearances
of unfaithfulness. Since he will be helping the pastor in managing the church, a deacon
must also conduct an exemplary household, ruling well his own children and home.
Duties. In accordance with the meaning of the Word and the practice of the New
Testament, deacons are to be servants of the church. (1) As exemplary Christian leaders
and church members, deacons should lead in the proclamation of the gospel in the
community. Whether in teaching of Bible class or in personal witnessing and discipling,
they should prove to be active servants of the Lord. They are expected to provide faithful
personal support to church activities.
(2) To build Christian fellowship among church members they should be involved in
sharing information about the church’s life and work. They are to be zealous
to attain and guard the unity of the spirit within the church in the bonds of peace by a
faithful and constant ministry of visitation, prayer, exhorting and meditating whenever
needed.
(3) They will serve as a council of advice and conference to the pastor
in all matters pertaining to the welfare and work of the church. Without the pastor they are
to consider and formulate plans for the church in all matters pertaining to the saving of
souls, the developments of Christians, and the
extension and growth of the Kingdom of God.
(4) By proper organization and method among themselves, they are to establish and
maintain personal fraternal relation with, and inspiring oversight of all the
membership of the church. Especially are they to seek to know the physical needs and
the moral and spiritual struggles of the church family; and to serve the whole church in
counseling, encouraging, praying, and developing all who are in material or spiritual
crises. This ministry of listening to burdened persons or families and to corresponding
counsel from God’s Word, if faithfully done, could very well be the most invaluable
contribution of the deacons to the life of any church.
(5) In counsel with the pastor, and by such methods as the Holy Spirit may direct in
accordance with the New Testament teachings, they are to have oversight of the discipline
of the church, in administering which they are to be guided always by the principles set
forth in Matthew 18:15-17; 1 Corinthians 5:9-13; 1Thessalonians 5:12-14. The deacons
will be free to call upon any member of the church to aid in disciplinary action.
(6) The deacon has a responsibility for pulpit supply as delegated by the pastor. In case
of absence or inability of the pastor or his assistant to serve, the deacon will assume the
responsibility for pulpit supplies.
Organization. The whole body of deacons will be organized as a unit for the consideration
of all larger problems and general policies, and will meet regularly at the time they will
designate. They may organize themselves into such committees as their wisdom may
direct for efficiency in service.
Section 4. Moderator. The Moderator will be the pastor. In the absence of the pastor,
and the assistant pastor, the chairman of deacons will preside; or in the
absence of both, the clerk will call the church to order and as moderator pro tem will be
elected.
Section 5. Secretary. The secretary in the church will keep a record of all the actions of
the church, except otherwise herein provided. He or she will keep a register of the names
of members with dates of admission, or death, together with a record of baptism. He or
she will also notify all officers, members of committees and delegates of their election or
appointment. He or she will issue letters of dismissal voted by the church, preserve on file
all communications and written official reports, and give legal notice in the bylaws. The
secretary will consider it a part of his or her responsibility to promote loyalty and efficiency
in church life. He or she will serve as the resource person to the church historians, if any.
Section 6. Treasurer. The treasurer will receive, preserve all money or things of value
given to the church. He or she will also pay out all money, upon receipt of
vouchers approved and signed by authorized personnel. He or she will keep at all times
an itemized account of all receipts and disbursements. Payment of bill for local work and
expenses will be made promptly by check and all funds received for denominational or
other causes will be remitted regularly by check.
The treasurer will render a quarterly itemized report of receipts and disbursements for the
business meeting. A summary of donors’ gifts and contributions to the church will be
prepared and sent to all contributors on or before the end of January every year. Within
the first quarter of each fiscal year, the treasurer will render an annual report to the
Finance Committee and to the church showing the total amount of receipts, and an
itemized statement of all disbursements. All books, records, and accounts kept by the
treasurer will be considered the property of the church. The books will be
opened to inspection at all times by any member of the church.
Upon rendering the annual account at the end of each fiscal year, and its
approval by the auditing committee, and its acceptance and approval by the church, the
secretary will keep and preserve it as a part of the permanent records of the church. The
treasurer will, upon the election of his or her successor and upon the completion of a fiscal
report, promptly deliver to the active chair of the deacons all books, records, and accounts
in his or her hands pertaining or relating to in any manner, the duties of the office he or
she is relinquishing. He or she will consider it a part of his or her responsibility to promote
Scriptural giving among the entire membership of the church.

will be composed of the pastor(s), secretary, treasurer, and the chairperson of the various

have a general charge of the membership roll, the orientation of all applicants for
membership and their presentation to the church for final action. Once approved, the
pertinent facts about the new member will be forwarded to the Church Secretary for proper
recording. The Church Secretary will also be responsible for making the necessary

CONSTITUTION
Preamble
For the more certain preservation and security of the principles of our faith and to the end
that this body may be governed in an orderly manner and for the purpose of preserving
the liberties inherent in each individual member of this church and the freedom of action of
this body with respect to its relation to our churches of the same faith, we do declare and
establish this constitution.
Article I: Name
This body will be known as the PHILIPPINE INTERNATIONAL BIBLE CHURCH of
Montgomery County, Maryland, Inc.
Article II: Statements of Faith
We accept the Statements of Faith commonly adopted by Bible-believing evangelical
churches, particularly by the Southern Baptist Convention, and published in a pamphlet
entitled, The Baptist Faith and Message in 1963. The salient articles include the following:
The Scriptures: The Holy Bible is God's revelation of Himself to humankind. It is a perfect
treasure of divine instruction. It has God for its author, salvation for its end, and truth,
without any mixture of error, for its matter.
God: There is only one living and true God who reveals Himself to us as Father, Son, and
Holy Spirit, with distinct personal attributes, but without division of nature, essence, or
being.
God as Father reigns with providential care over His universe, His creatures, and the flow
of the stream of human history according to the purposes of His grace.
Christ is the eternal Son of God. He was born of a virgin taking upon Himself full human
nature yet without sin. He died for us sinners, was buried, rose again and ascended into
heaven. He is now exalted at the right hand of God where He is the One Mediator
between God and humankind. He will return in power and glory to judge the world and to
consummate His redemptive mission. He now dwells in all believers as the living and ever
present Lord.
The Holy Spirit is the Spirit of God. He convicts sinners of sin, of righteousness and of
judgment. He effects regeneration, baptizes all believers into the body of Christ, indwells
and comforts believers, cultivates Christian character, and bestows spiritual gifts for
service.
Man. God created man in His own image. By his own free choice man fell from his original
innocence whereby all of his posterity inherits a nature and an environment inclined
toward sin, and as soon as they are capable of moral action become transgressors and
under condemnation.
Salvation involves the redemption of the whole person. In its broadest sense salvation
includes regeneration, sanctification, and glorification. Election is the gracious purpose of
God, according to which He regenerates, sanctifies, and glorifies sinners. It is consistent
with the free agency and comprehends all the means in connection with the end. All true
believers endure to the end.
The Church is a local body of baptized believers who are associated by
covenant in the faith and fellowship of the gospel, observing the two ordinances of Christ,
committed to His teachings, exercising the gifts, rights, and privileges invested in them by
His Word, and seeking to extend the gospel to the ends of the earth. The New Testament
speaks also of the church as the body of Christ
which includes all of the redeemed of all the ages.
Christian baptism is the immersion of a believer in water in the name of the Father, the
Son, and the Holy Spirit. It is an act of obedience symbolizing the believer's faith in a
crucified, buried, and risen Savior, the believer's death to sin, the burial of the old life, and
the resurrection to walk in newness of life in Christ.
The Lord's Supper is a symbolic act of obedience whereby members of the
church, through partaking of the bread and the fruit of the vine memorialize the death of
the Redeemer and anticipate His second coming.
Last Things. God, in His own time and in His own way, will bring the world to its
appropriate end. Jesus Christ will return personally and visibly in glory to the earth; the
dead will be raised; and Christ will judge all in righteousness. The unrighteous will be
consigned to Hell, the place of everlasting punishment. The righteous in their resurrected
and glorified bodies will receive their reward and will dwell forever in Heaven with the Lord.
Stewardship. God is the source of all blessings, temporal and spiritual; all that we are and
have we owe to Him. Christians have a spiritual debtorship to the whole world, a holy
trusteeship in the gospel, and a binding stewardship in their possessions. They are
therefore under obligation to serve Him with their time, talents, and material possessions,
and should recognize all these as entrusted to them to use for the glory of God and for
helping others. According to the Scriptures, Christians should contribute of their means
cheerfully, regularly, systematically, proportionately, and liberally for the advancement of
the Redeemer's cause on earth.
Article III: Church Covenant
Having been led, as we believe, by the Spirit of God, to receive the Lord Jesus Christ as
our Savior and, on the profession of our faith, having been baptized in the name of the
Father, and of the Son, and of the Holy Spirit, we do now in the presence of God and this
assembly most solemnly and joyfully enter into a covenant with one another as one body
in Christ.
We engage, therefore, with help of the Holy Spirit, to walk together in Christian love; to
strive for the advancement of this church in knowledge, holiness and comfort; to promote
its prosperity and spirituality; to sustain its worship, ordinances, discipline, and doctrines;
to contribute cheerfully and regularly to the support of the ministry, the expenses of the
church, the relief of the poor and the spread of the gospel through all nations.
We also engage to maintain family and secret devotions; to educate our children
religiously; to seek the salvation of our kindred and acquaintances; to walk
circumspectly in the world; to strive to be just in our dealings, faithful in our engagements,
and exemplary in our conduct; to avoid all tattling, backbiting and
excessive anger; to abstain from practices that would, in any manner, be harmful to our
bodies or that would be a detriment to our Christian witness; and to be zealous in our
efforts to advance the kingdom of our Savior. We further engage to watch over one
another in Christian love; to remember each other in prayer, to aid each other in sickness
and distress; to cultivate Christian sympathy in feeling and courtesy in speech; to be slow
to take offense, but always ready for reconciliation and mindful of the rules of our Savior to
secure it without delay.
We, moreover, engage that when we depart from this place and body of believers, we will,
as soon as possible, unite with another church, where we can carry out the spirit of this
covenant and the principles of God’s Word.
Article IV: Character
Section 1. Polity. The government of the church is vested in the body of believers who

among evangelical churches, particularly the Southern Baptist churches.
Section 2. Doctrine. This church receives the Scripture as its authority in matters of faith
and practice. Its understanding of Christian truth as contained therein is in essential
accord with the belief of Southern Baptist churches as indicated in the Articles of Faith
herein mentioned.
Section 3. Affiliation. This church is affiliated with the Montgomery Baptist Association,
the Baptist Convention of Maryland, the Southern Baptist Convention and the Baptist
World Alliance.
BYLAWS
Article I. Membership
Section 1. Qualifications. The membership of this church will consist of such persons who
have made a profession of personal faith in Jesus Christ as Savior and Lord; who desire
to be numbered among His disciples in this church; who have experienced New Testament
baptism by immersion; and who are in sympathy with the faith and practices of this church.
Membership in this church will be attained as follows:
Ø By the ordinance of baptism by immersion after profession of faith in Christ
Ø By letter of recommendation from a church of like faith and practice
Ø By statement of Christian experience and baptism when a letter is unobtainable
Ø By restoration to membership after having been excluded
Section 2. Duties. Members are expected, first of all, to be faithful in all the duties
essential to the Christian life, to attend habitually the services of this church, to give
regularly to its support and its causes, to share in its causes and its organized work, and
to work within the guidelines of the Constitution & Bylaws, policies and procedures of this
church.
Section 3. Rights. Each member present at a regularly scheduled or properly called
business meeting will be entitled to act and vote in transactions of the church. Absentee
balloting is permitted when provisions for such have been made.
Section 4. Termination of Membership. The continuance of membership will be subject to
the principles of usages of congregational evangelical churches, and
especially as follows:
Ø Any member in good standing who desires a letter of dismissal and
recommendation to any other church of like faith is entitled to receive it upon his or her
request. In case of departure to another community, he or she should promptly make such
request. This letter will be valid as a recommendation for only six months from its date,
unless renewed, and this restriction will be
stated in the letter.
Ø If a member in good standing requests to be released from his or her covenant
obligations to his or her church for reasons which the church may finally deem
satisfactory, after it will have patiently and kindly endeavored to secure his or her
continuance in its fellowship, such request may be granted, and his or her membership
terminated.
Ø All requests for termination of membership or action related thereto will first be
considered by the deacons and the Membership Committee, who will make
recommendation to the church. In the absence of the deacons’ body or the Membership
Committee, the Church Council makes the recommendations.
Ø The church may also vote to terminate the membership of persons for
being nonresident for one year, or for the same space of time not habitually worshiping
with the church, or for the same space, not contributing to its support according to the
system prescribed by the church.
* Should a member become an offense to the church and to its good name
by reason of immoral or unchristian conduct, or by persistent breach of his or her
covenant vows, or nonsupport of the church, the church may terminate his or her
membership, but only after due notice and hearing, and after faithful efforts have been
made to bring such members to repentance and amendment.
Ø Termination of membership by the church will be communicated by letter
after the meeting when the recommendation for such action is made.
Section 5. Restoration of Membership. Any person whose membership has
been terminated for any offense may be restored by vote of the church upon reapplication
and examination by the Membership Committee, upon evidence of his or her repentance
and reformation or, if on account of continued absence, upon satisfactory explanation.
Section 6. Voting on Termination and Restoration. All voting on the termination and
restoration of membership in the church will be done by ballots in order to protect all
parties concerned. The results of such voting should be made known in the same meeting.
Section 7. Associate Membership. Believers who, for some acceptable reasons, feel they
cannot comply with all the requirements for regular church membership may be
considered by the membership committee for associate membership in the church upon
their request and presentation. Associate members have the privilege of sharing in the
ordinances of the Lord’s Supper, holding church offices not specifically excluded by this
section, and all other such privileges pertaining to regular church membership. Associate
members will not hold the office of pastor, deacon, or the offices designated to sit in the
church council.
Article II. Church Officers
Section 1. Pastor. A pastor will be chosen and called by the church
whenever a vacancy occurs. His election will take place at a meeting called for that
purpose, of which at least one week’s public notice will be given. A Pulpit Search
Committee will be appointed by the church to seek out a suitable pastor, and its
recommendation will constitute a nomination. The committee will bring to the consideration
of the church only one person at a time. No other nominee will be invited or considered
unless preceding the nominee is heard and turned down by the congregation. Election will
be by ballot; affirmative votes of three-fourths of those present being necessary for a
choice.
The pastor will serve until the relationship is terminated by mutual consent. The pastor will
have charge of the welfare and oversight of the church. He will preside at all meetings of
the church, except as hereinafter provided. As the spiritual leader of the church, unless
he delegates any of his responsibilities, the pastor will perform the following duties:
Ø To devote a considerable amount of time and effort to the ministry of
the word and prayer
Ø To lead the members in the proclamation of the gospel in word and in
daily living
Ø To care for persons in the church and community
Ø To provide administrative leadership for the church
Ø To provide leadership in congregational services
Ø To conduct weddings, funerals, and other special services for the
church and community
Ø To work closely with the deacons and other church leaders in the training and
performance of their job of proclaiming, caring, and building up of the body
Ø To direct the Church Council in its coordination of the total church
program
Ø To provide the staff training and supervision
Ø To serve as the Public Relation Officer of the church
Section 2. Associate Pastors. Associate Pastors may be elected by the church as the
need arises. Their activities will be under the direction of the pastor.
Section 3. Deacons. Number, Election, Terms of Service. (1) Whenever
possible, a minimum of two deacons will serve at all times in the church. As the
membership grows there will be elected one deacon for each ten families on the resident
church roll. When the number of deacons reaches six, this proportion of number of
deacons for church membership will be proportionately changed until there is one deacon
for five families. It will be pertinent to the church to promote to honorary life membership
any deacon who, by reason of age or infirmities and after honorable service, are no
longer able to render active service.
(2) In the absence of a deacon’s body the pastor appoints two other leaders who will serve
with him as the screening body for nominees in the deaconship. This body then submits
to the church a list of the deacon’s qualifications and responsibilities as provided herewith,
along with the names of all male members of the church. The church, having decided on
the number of deacons needed, then votes by secret ballots by numbering the names of
the list according to
priority. Without revealing the results, the screening body interviews privately those with
higher number of votes. If they agree to serve, these are finally presented to the church
as the elected deacons.
(3) A rotating system will be instituted so that the number completing the term of office will
not all be in one year. According to the number of votes received, some will be declared
elected for a term of service of three years, others for two years, and the rest for one
year. After serving for one term no deacon will be eligible for reelection until the lapse of
at least one year. [This limitation is lifted
when there are no qualified and/or available candidates.]
(4) The interim screening body may recommend the ordination or installation of the new
deacons. Once existing, the deacons’ committee serves as the screening group for the
future deacons, who will be elected through the same procedure explained therein.
Qualifications. The word deacon means “a servant.” Since to be a deacon
means to be involved in selfless service, a nominee needs to meet certain standards
which befit a spiritual servant. As expounded in Acts 6:1-6, 8:4-40; 1 Tim. 3:1-13; and
Titus 1-2, a person must be striving to please the Lord with a life committed to meet the
following Christian virtues.
(1) Spiritually, he must be full of the Holy Spirit. That is, his life is not ruled by his temper,
but is continually displaying the control of the Spirit of God. He must be growing in
wisdom, as it were, in the ability to perceive objectively and to make mature and impartial
decisions. Concerning his faith, he must be an example of trust in God and in others, able
to see beyond the present.
(2) Morally, a deacon will be one who is known for his good character and commendable
Christian spirit, which are necessary for a person to gain the respect of others. He needs
to be honest and sincere in his word, not double-tongued or gossiper. God’s Word and
human society uphold that a godly man, like a deacon, should not have any part in a
strong drink. On the matter of stewardship, he should inspire and challenge others
through faithfulness in financially supporting his church as well as in the godly use of what
he keeps for himself.
(3) Since a part of his ministry is teaching the Word whenever possible, a deacon of this
church must know and understand, and is able to support with Scripture, the major
teachings of the Bible as set forth in the statement of faith herewith.
(4) If married, he must be one who is faithful to his wife and is free from all appearances
of unfaithfulness. Since he will be helping the pastor in managing the church, a deacon
must also conduct an exemplary household, ruling well his own children and home.
Duties. In accordance with the meaning of the Word and the practice of the New
Testament, deacons are to be servants of the church. (1) As exemplary Christian leaders
and church members, deacons should lead in the proclamation of the gospel in the
community. Whether in teaching of Bible class or in personal witnessing and discipling,
they should prove to be active servants of the Lord. They are expected to provide faithful
personal support to church activities.
(2) To build Christian fellowship among church members they should be involved in
sharing information about the church’s life and work. They are to be zealous
to attain and guard the unity of the spirit within the church in the bonds of peace by a
faithful and constant ministry of visitation, prayer, exhorting and meditating whenever
needed.
(3) They will serve as a council of advice and conference to the pastor
in all matters pertaining to the welfare and work of the church. Without the pastor they are
to consider and formulate plans for the church in all matters pertaining to the saving of
souls, the developments of Christians, and the
extension and growth of the Kingdom of God.
(4) By proper organization and method among themselves, they are to establish and
maintain personal fraternal relation with, and inspiring oversight of all the
membership of the church. Especially are they to seek to know the physical needs and
the moral and spiritual struggles of the church family; and to serve the whole church in
counseling, encouraging, praying, and developing all who are in material or spiritual
crises. This ministry of listening to burdened persons or families and to corresponding
counsel from God’s Word, if faithfully done, could very well be the most invaluable
contribution of the deacons to the life of any church.
(5) In counsel with the pastor, and by such methods as the Holy Spirit may direct in
accordance with the New Testament teachings, they are to have oversight of the discipline
of the church, in administering which they are to be guided always by the principles set
forth in Matthew 18:15-17; 1 Corinthians 5:9-13; 1Thessalonians 5:12-14. The deacons
will be free to call upon any member of the church to aid in disciplinary action.
(6) The deacon has a responsibility for pulpit supply as delegated by the pastor. In case
of absence or inability of the pastor or his assistant to serve, the deacon will assume the
responsibility for pulpit supplies.
Organization. The whole body of deacons will be organized as a unit for the consideration
of all larger problems and general policies, and will meet regularly at the time they will
designate. They may organize themselves into such committees as their wisdom may
direct for efficiency in service.
Section 4. Moderator. The Moderator will be the pastor. In the absence of the pastor,
and the assistant pastor, the chairman of deacons will preside; or in the
absence of both, the clerk will call the church to order and as moderator pro tem will be
elected.
Section 5. Secretary. The secretary in the church will keep a record of all the actions of
the church, except otherwise herein provided. He or she will keep a register of the names
of members with dates of admission, or death, together with a record of baptism. He or
she will also notify all officers, members of committees and delegates of their election or
appointment. He or she will issue letters of dismissal voted by the church, preserve on file
all communications and written official reports, and give legal notice in the bylaws. The
secretary will consider it a part of his or her responsibility to promote loyalty and efficiency
in church life. He or she will serve as the resource person to the church historians, if any.
Section 6. Treasurer. The treasurer will receive, preserve all money or things of value
given to the church. He or she will also pay out all money, upon receipt of
vouchers approved and signed by authorized personnel. He or she will keep at all times
an itemized account of all receipts and disbursements. Payment of bill for local work and
expenses will be made promptly by check and all funds received for denominational or
other causes will be remitted regularly by check.
The treasurer will render a quarterly itemized report of receipts and disbursements for the
business meeting. A summary of donors’ gifts and contributions to the church will be
prepared and sent to all contributors on or before the end of January every year. Within
the first quarter of each fiscal year, the treasurer will render an annual report to the
Finance Committee and to the church showing the total amount of receipts, and an
itemized statement of all disbursements. All books, records, and accounts kept by the
treasurer will be considered the property of the church. The books will be
opened to inspection at all times by any member of the church.
Upon rendering the annual account at the end of each fiscal year, and its
approval by the auditing committee, and its acceptance and approval by the church, the
secretary will keep and preserve it as a part of the permanent records of the church. The
treasurer will, upon the election of his or her successor and upon the completion of a fiscal
report, promptly deliver to the active chair of the deacons all books, records, and accounts
in his or her hands pertaining or relating to in any manner, the duties of the office he or
she is relinquishing. He or she will consider it a part of his or her responsibility to promote
Scriptural giving among the entire membership of the church.
Article III. Church Council
Section 1. Composition. The Council, unless otherwise determined by vote of the church,
will be composed of the pastor(s), secretary, treasurer, and the chairperson of the various
church committees.
Section 2. Duties. The Church Council, upon being established by authorization of the
church, will seek to correlate and coordinate the activities and organization of the church,
yet with advisory power only. The functions of the Council will be determined by the
Council itself through the leadership and suggestion of the pastor. The Council will serve
as a nominating committee until a separate Nominating Committee is created.

have a general charge of the membership roll, the orientation of all applicants for
membership and their presentation to the church for final action. Once approved, the
pertinent facts about the new member will be forwarded to the Church Secretary for proper
