INFORMATION FOR CHURCH VOTING DELEGATES

Following the adoption of our Revised Articles of Association in 2023, the Association is no-longer required to hold an AGM and so as part of our gathering together, a short General Meeting will be held to consider and vote on the nominations received for the vacancies on the EMBA Board of Directors.

Every member church of the EMBA is asked to nominate ONE person (voting delegate) to vote on behalf of their church.

Please note, whilst only one person per church can act as the Authorised Church Representative (voting delegate), any number of attendees are welcome.

On the day, voting delegates are asked to visit the ‘Delegates Registration Point’ on arrival. They will need to sign in as a voting delegate and pick up a ballot paper. The ballot paper will then need to be completed and placed in the ballot box no later than 1.45pm (end of lunch break).

The result of the ballot vote will be announced at 2.05pm.

Please could we strongly encourage all EMBA churches to consider sending a delegate to represent the voice of your church at the General Meeting. We would ask that the nominations received for the vacancies on the board of Directors are shared with your church as soon as possible to enable prayerful reflection and consideration.

***Please note: Photography / filming may take place during the day and be used in future EMBA promotional material, publicity on the EMBA website, YouTube and social media. If you would prefer not to be included, please notify Sarah Fegredo (EMBA Communications Lead).

2024 EMBA GENERAL MEETING

A General Meeting of the EMBA was held during the EMBA Gathering on Saturday 29th June at Springwell, Whetstone Baptist Church, Whetstone.

As part of the EMBA Gathering, a short EMBA General Meeting was held with a single agenda item being the election of EMBA Directors. We are delighted to announce that Revd Hannah Colk, Mrs Ellie Cox, Revd Martin Hills and Revd Matt Jones, all current Directors, received the votes of more than 50% of the voting delegates present and were therefore duly appointed as Directors of the Association for a further term of office.
