Messengers able to pre-file motions, amendments

ST. CHARLES – If messengers have a motion they plan to submit at the 2020 MBC annual meeting, they are welcome to pre-file that motion with the recording secretary at recordingsecretary@mobaptist.org.

However, the messenger must appear at a microphone during time for introduction of miscellaneous business (Oct. 26 at 3:55 p.m. or 6:35 p.m.) and introduce their motion to the messengers attending the Annual Meeting.

If a messenger wants to amend a motion, they may also file the amendment with the Recording Secretary, but you must appear at a microphone and present the amendment to the messengers at the appropriate time. 

Pre-filing allows the president and the recording secretary to more readily see the messenger’s exact wording for the proposed motion or amendment.
