“The board of directors elects new board members after months of discussions and prayer. We choose a couple who we believe will uphold the bylawas and statement of faith but also has a vested interest in the group as a whole. Once the board decides who to invite, we have a discussion with the prospective couple explaining what the board of directors does for the group. We also explain that the board must present the potential board members to the group as a whole and then wait for 30 days before the couple can officially become board members. This waiting period is so any eagle's nest members may come forward with any complaints as to why they feel that the potential board couple should not serve on eagle's nest board of directors.”

“Any time we change our bylaws or elect new board members, it is presented to eagle's nest for 30 days so members may have the opportunity to submit complaints, suggestions, etc.”
