Bylaws Article IV. Clergy 1) If a Licensed Minister has not reported and given the tithe for three (3) months, he shall be required to meet with the Conference Executive Council. 2) In the event he does not meet with the Conference Executive Council when requested or does not make satisfactory amends, he shall forfeit his Minister’s License. 3) Any Licensed Minister forfeiting his Minister’s License in one Conference for failure to tithe shall not be considered for license in any other Conference until he has been reconciled to the Conference in which he forfeited his credentials. i. Appropriate ministerial ethics and courtesy shall be observed when a Licensed Minister is invited to perform ministry in the church of another pastor. j. Licensed Ministers other than the Senior Pastor are not to become involved in the official business of the local church. When Licensed Ministers participate in the ministries of the local church, participation shall be in full cooperation with the Senior Pastor, and they shall be amenable to the Senior Pastor. k. Licensed Ministers may conduct marriage ceremonies in accordance with the teaching of the Scriptures and state laws. l. All Licensed Ministers must participate annually in a continuing education program provided or approved by the General Conference or Conference (2 Timothy 2:15). Any minister failing to meet this requirement will forfeit his credentials. This excludes retired clergy. m. When possible, retired Licensed Ministers are to continue their ministries through evangelization, church planting, interim pastorates, Sunday school teaching, visitation, etc. To enhance their ministries, Conference Superintendents and Senior Pastors shall call on the expertise and knowledge of retired clergy. 157
