Proposed Amendment

(5) the ASR by-laws are hereby amended as shown by adding the new portion(s) below (highlighted in bold merely for identification’s sake):
Current Article 6-D [which seems to incorrectly label itself as 5-D]:
“Members”, “Associate Members”, “Honorary Members” and “Life Members” are expressly prohibited from being a member of any “motorcycle club” or another “motorcycle ministry” other than ASR. For purposes of this Article 5 6 (D). “Motorcycle club” shall not include motorcycle benefit organizations, such as A.M.A., H.O.G., or A.B.A.T.E., except that joining any such motorcycle benefit
organizations should be done by the individual as in their personal
capacity, not by the ASR ministry as a group, and not by any ASR chapter,
committee, or sub-group, as a group. Evangelism to all bikers can be
accomplished without ASR joining (as a group) such benefit or advocacy
organizations. While the ASR ministry is not against benefit or political
advocacy groups and/or organizations, they do not represent our
expressed primary purpose of Oneness Apostolic evangelism.
