Article II. Organizational Structure – Conferences<br />

election to finish out the terms vacated by the<br />

resignations.<br />

e. If the Senior Pastor does not remain after a vote of<br />

confidence, he will be given up to thirty (30) days to<br />

relocate. The church will provide the Senior Pastor with<br />

his full salary and benefits for at least thirty (30) days.<br />

10. No Conference Executive Council has the authority to<br />

refuse appointment of a Senior Pastor based solely on his<br />

Conference membership.<br />

11. A minister may pastor in any International Pentecostal<br />

Holiness Conference by effecting a transfer or by being<br />

seconded into that Conference. A copy of the minister’s<br />

personnel file shall accompany the transfer or seconding<br />

documents.<br />

12. “Seconded membership” status may be granted to a<br />

minister so he can serve a pastorate in a Conference other<br />

than where he is a member. Seconded membership<br />

applies only when a credentialed minister will lose<br />

retirement or other earned benefits by transferring to<br />

another Conference. Therefore, seconded membership<br />

does not require a formal transfer of Conference<br />

membership.<br />

a. A minister who is granted seconded membership<br />

status to pastor in a Conference will be amenable to<br />

the Conference Superintendent and Conference<br />

Executive Council under whose jurisdiction the<br />

pastorate is located.<br />

b. The minister who is granted seconded membership<br />

status shall report and tithe monthly in the Conference<br />

in which the pastorate is located.<br />

c. Details of his status pertaining to retention of<br />

insurance, retirement benefits, etc., must be worked<br />

out to the satisfaction of both Conference Executive<br />

Councils, the minister, and the local church involved<br />

prior to this status being granted.<br />
