Constitution of the American Missionary Association.

INCORPORATED JANUARY 30, 1849.

* * * * *

ART. I. This Society shall be called “THE AMERICAN MISSIONARY

ASSOCIATION.”

ART. II. The object of this Association shall be to conduct Christian

missionary and educational operations, and to diffuse a knowledge of

the Holy Scriptures in our own and other countries which are destitute

of them, or which present open and urgent fields of effort.

ART. III. Any person of evangelical sentiments,[A] who professes faith

in the Lord Jesus Christ, who is not a slaveholder, or in the practice

of other immoralities, and who contributes to the funds, may become a

member of the Society; and by the payment of thirty dollars, a life

member; provided that children and others who have not professed their

faith may be constituted life members without the privilege of voting.

ART. IV. This Society shall meet annually, in the month of September,

October or November, for the election of officers and the transaction

of other business, at such time and place as shall be designated by the

Executive Committee.

ART. V. The annual meeting shall be constituted of the regular

officers and members of the Society at the time of such meeting, and

of delegates from churches, local missionary societies, and other

co-operating bodies, each body being entitled to one representative.

ART. VI. The officers of the Society shall be a President,

Vice-Presidents, a Recording Secretary, Corresponding Secretaries,

Treasurer, two Auditors, and an Executive Committee of not less than

twelve, of which the Corresponding Secretaries shall be advisory, and

the Treasurer ex-officio, members.

ART. VII. To the Executive Committee shall belong the collecting and

disbursing of funds; the appointing, counselling, sustaining and

dismissing (for just and sufficient reasons) missionaries and agents;

the selection of missionary fields; and, in general, the transaction of

all such business as usually appertains to the executive committees of

missionary and other benevolent societies; the Committee to exercise no

ecclesiastical jurisdiction over the missionaries; and its doings to

be subject always to the revision of the annual meeting, which shall,

by a reference mutually chosen, always entertain the complaints of any

aggrieved agent or missionary; and the decision of such reference shall

be final.

The Executive Committee shall have authority to fill all vacancies

occurring among the officers between the regular annual meetings;

to apply, if they see fit, to any State Legislature for acts of

incorporation; to fix the compensation, where any is given, of all

officers, agents, missionaries, or others in the employment of the

Society; to make provision, if any, for disabled missionaries, and

for the widows and children of such as are deceased; and to call, in

all parts of the country, at their discretion, special and general

conventions of the friends of missions, with a view to the diffusion of

the missionary spirit, and the general and vigorous promotion of the

missionary work.

Five members of the Committee shall constitute a quorum for transacting

business.

ART. VIII. This society, in collecting funds, in appointing officers,

agents and missionaries, and in selecting fields of labor, and

conducting the missionary work, will endeavor particularly to

discountenance slavery, by refusing to receive the known fruits of

unrequited labor, or to welcome to its employment those who hold their

fellow-beings as slaves.

ART. IX. Missionary bodies, churches or individuals agreeing to

the principles of this Society, and wishing to appoint and sustain

missionaries of their own, shall be entitled to do so through the

agency of the Executive Committee, on terms mutually agreed upon.

ART. X. No amendment shall be made in this Constitution without the

concurrence of two-thirds of the members present at a regular annual

meeting; nor unless the proposed amendment has been submitted to

a previous meeting, or to the Executive Committee in season to be

published by them (as it shall be their duty to do, if so submitted) in

the regular official notifications of the meeting.

FOOTNOTE:

[A] By evangelical sentiments, we understand, among others, a belief

in the guilty and lost condition of all men without a Saviour; the

Supreme Deity, Incarnation and Atoning Sacrifice of Jesus Christ, the

only Saviour of the world; the necessity of regeneration by the Holy

Spirit, repentance, faith and holy obedience in order to salvation; the

immortality of the soul; and the retributions of the judgment in the

eternal punishment of the wicked, and salvation of the righteous.

* * * * *

_The American Missionary Association._

* * * * *

AIM AND WORK.

To preach the Gospel to the poor. It originated in a sympathy with the

almost friendless slaves. Since Emancipation it has devoted its main

efforts to preparing the FREEDMEN for their duties as citizens and

Christians in America and as missionaries in Africa. As closely related

to this, it seeks to benefit the caste-persecuted CHINESE in America,

and to co-operate with the Government in its humane and Christian

policy towards the INDIANS. It has also a mission in AFRICA.

WANTS.

1. A steady INCREASE of regular income to keep pace with the growing

work in the South. This increase can only be reached by _regular_ and

_larger_ contributions from the churches—the feeble as well as the

strong.

2. ADDITIONAL BUILDINGS for our higher educational institutions, to

accommodate the increasing numbers of students; MEETING HOUSES, for the

new churches we are organizing; MORE MINISTERS, cultured and pious, for

these churches.

3. HELP FOR YOUNG MEN, to be educated as ministers here and

missionaries to Africa—a pressing want.
