A113 Amend Article V.4 of the Constitution
The amendment expresses more clearly the process contemplated by the amendments to the Canons in which the uniting dioceses approve the Constitution and Canons prior to the unification being presented to the General Convention. The current wording of Section 4 does not prohibit dioceses from approving their governance documents ahead of time, so the amendment clarifies the process.
