Section 1
Introduction
The policies and procedures contained in the Administrative Manual are compulsory for all Canadian Foursquare churches, ministers and ministries. If any local church manual is in conflict with the Administrative Manual, the Administrative Manual will be considered correct.
The Administrative Manual is intended to be consistent with the laws of Canada as well as the Articles of Incorporation and Bylaws of the Foursquare Gospel Church of Canada.
Suggested amendments to the Administrative Manual may be submitted by a local church pastor or church council to the president for his/her consideration and submission to the National Board. A thirty (30) day advance notice of proposed additions or changes to the manual will be sent to all pastors and church councils to provide everyone with an opportunity to input the deliberations.
This edition of the manual was approved by the National Board on September 20, 2019.
