Is there a Roberts rules just for churches?
Does a church have the right to re-write the Secretary minutes of an annual meeting and type her name in the report and try to pull it off as her work. They also left out a big portion of what happened at that meeting.

Tina–I’m trying to get back to reading my own blog. Thanks for writing.
There isn’t a different church-edition. Most church bodies cite Robert’s Rules without reference to editions. It is understood that the latest edition is the authoritative one.
