each and every member/prospect realize and understand that while you are representing End Time Warriors
Motorcycle Ministry, you are, in effect, representing the Lord Jesus Christ, His will and His Word- The Bible,
and His bride the Church. Therefore, when representing ETW M/M, each member/prospect is expected and
required to live up to the highest standards of conduct on any issue regardless of your personal beliefs on that
issue. All members of ETW M/M are expected to maintain behaviors and lifestyles consistent with the
teachings found in the Holy Bible. Any member whose behavior or lifestyle is found to deviate from the
teachings of the Holy Bible (sin) shall be disciplined in accordance with disciplinary procedures outlined in
(Matt 18: 15-20). In all cases where matters will be brought before the members of the executive committee
who may, at their discretion, enforce whatever disciplinary they determine to be appropriate. Members will be
required to sign a statement that they agree to and will honor these By-laws while they represent ETW M/M.
That statement and a copy of the By-laws will be kept on file at the Chapter clubhouse.
5) Dues
ETW M/M members will pay annual dues of $100.00 due by the first week in January each calendar year.
Members who are experiencing financial hardship can elect to pay the $100.00 out over a period of 3 months.
Members who complete their prospect period and receive their patches during the course of the calendar year
will pay a prorated amount that reflects the remainder of that calendar year. The prorate will be based on the
quarter of the year that the prospect gets patched in. For example, if a prospect earns their patch at the end of
February (close to the end of the first quarter of that year) he/she will pay dues of $75.00 to reflect the
remaining three quarters of that year. Prospects will pay a fee of $25.00 when they begin their prospect

Upon completion of the prospect requirements and upon payment of the first year’s dues, members will

will be expected to be at the event with the exception of a true emergency. Any member voting no, is in effect,
saying they cannot attend the event and will not be required to attend. If 75% of the membership votes yes, the
event will be added to the ETW M/M calendar and members who voted yes will be required to attend. All
members voting no will be asked to attend if at all possible. If less than 75% of the membership vote’s yes,
then the event will not be added to the calendar and attendance will be at the discretion of individual members.
This vote will only be necessary if ETW M/M is making a commitment as a group to an outside organization
and is not necessary to decide to attend an event where a commitment has not been made as a group.
13) Amendments
These By-laws may be amended or changed at any time by a 4/5 vote of the executive committee.
