📜 The By-Laws were last revisited in 2013. As part of good governance, the Elder Board did another review of the By-Laws and are proposing some changes to the congregation. Any change requires 2/3 majority approval at a congregational meeting, except for any change to the Statement of Faith (of which we are proposing one, Section 2.09), which requires a 90% majority approval. Learn more about these revisions and the rationale here.
⛪️ The Elder Board will host a question-and-answer session on October 19, 2025, from 1:30 p.m. to 2:30 p.m. This event will be held in the sanctuary of the main campus. Please submit questions by email to elders@indychinesechurch.org. Questions must be submitted by email and need to be sent by October 12, the week prior to the Q & A session. The purpose of the event is to continue to improve communication throughout our church and to help prepare for our annual church meeting which will be on October 26.
