Landmark changes (what do I call it?)
Given the direction the USA is taking towards the Christian faith my church agreed to go over our Church Documents and make sure that we have done everything we can to be sure what we believe and how we conduct business is true to the Bible in all areas.
We ended up making changes to the four major documents of my church. All changes were voted on individually and all four were accepted by unanimous vote and consent!
The documents edited were:
1. The Articles of Faith
2. The Church Constitution
3. The Bylaws of the Church
4. The Church Covenant
Now I want to have all four printed as a single volume but... What do I call it?

Re: Landmark changes (what do I call it?)
Perhaps you could use:
Such and Such Church Governing Documents
or if you want to be cute:
The ABC's of Such and Such Church
(Articles of Faith, Bylaws, and the Constitution and Covenant)

Calvary Baptist Church Documents
Articles of Faith
Church Constitution
Bylaws of the Church
Church Covenant
===========
I used 'Calvary' cuz that's the name of the church where I was saved... the first Sunday in January of 1976. I don't know your church's name Pastor.
God bless.

Re: Landmark changes (what do I call it?)
Pastor Rick, did you ever decide to come up with one name for all the documents?

Only now, all the former Awana people are going to think they have to memorize sections of it.

Re: Landmark changes (what do I call it?)
I think it would be awesome if people would actually memorize some of the scriptures that are related to the churches doctrinal statements.
