– Submit an Annual Report including affirmation of the Covenantal Code of Ethics for Endorsed Clergy for the Alliance of Baptists by March 1st of each calendar year;
– Notify the Alliance of Baptists’ Endorser of any change of ministry setting and any legal, ethical, or professional actions filed against the person within one month of the change;
