5.03.07 The Administrative Committee

Some local churches find it useful to appoint an Administrative Committee. This committee is accountable to the church, and it reports its actions to the business sessions.

It consists of the pastor, the presiding and Recording Clerks, the Presiding Clerks of the main committees, and at least one of the representatives to the Yearly Meeting. Other active members may be included at the discretion of the church.

If the business sessions of the church are held quarterly, the Administrative Committee meets each month in the interim between sessions. Additional meetings may be called by the Presiding Clerk and/or the pastor, either of whom may be designated by the church to preside over the meetings of the Committee.
