GENERAL ASSEMBLY

Members of the Fellowship gather together at least once a year in an "Ordinary" Assembly. If the need arises, additional "Extraordinary" Assemblies may be called. All members of the Fellowship, from the date of their official entry approved by the Council, may participate with the exception of Honorary Members or Benefactors. Honorary Members and Benefactors must be invited by the President, and are not eligible to vote. All other members of the Fellowhip may be represented by another member of the Fellowship, however two is the maximum number of ballots any one member may cast (the member's own plus one member being represented). Each moral person may only be represented by one delegate.

Convocations to Assembly are made by the President, either by individual letter, or by means of any regular publication authorized to contain official notices of Fellowship activities, or by any other contemporary means. Any convocation must be made at least one week in advance of the actual date of the Assembly. The summons must include: the order of the day, as well as the location, the date, and the time of the Assembly.

An Ordinary General Assembly is comprised of reports from the Council on its direction and the financial and moral status of the Fellowhip, approvals or rectifications of accounts, quietus of Members of the Council, and previews of the budet. Any questions put to the General Assembly by the Council are discussed and then put to a vote by simple majority of the members present or represented. Votes may be taken either by the raising of hands or by secret ballot. Secret ballots may be requested by any member of the Fellowship. The results will be noted in the minutes and signed by the President and Secretary.

An Extraordinary General Assembly is convened each time the need arises to change the statues, or in the case of dissolution of the Fellowship. Such an Extraordinary Assembly may be convoked at the request of at least on quarter of all members of the Fellowship and will proceed as already indicated for an Ordinary Assembly. The required number of members of the Fellowhip to be present for a valid Extraordinary Assembly shall be three quarters of the entire membership of the Fellowship, present or represented. Deliberations will be voted upon by majority with the exception of taking a decision to alter the essential goals of the Fellowship, in which case, a unanimous vote is required. Votesmay be taken either by the raising of hands or by secret ballot. Secret ballots may be requested by any member of the Fellowship.
