Text of: 837-NonDis

The Committee recommends concurrence as amended as follows: Delete the wording entirely and add:

Whereas, the Methodist Church and the Evangelical united Brethren Church were united under the name The United Methodist Church in the year 1968 and that the uniting name has great historical significance for both bodies;

Therefore, be it resolved, that insofar as possible, all materials used in correspondence. Advertisements, and signs of the said churches and other denominational organizations use the complete proper name, "The United Methodist Church," capitalizing the word The when referring to the denomination as a whole.
