Minutes record disciplinary cases, often referred by overseas districts, against missionary personnel and matters of a pastoral nature (e.g. requests to marry, district chairmen seeking advice on matters of procedure, etc). Minutes also review missionaries' health and their ability to work, probation periods, the status of supernumeraries and transfers of missionary personnel from or to other Christian organisations. Minutes periodically provide lists of the names of those on probation, on trial, entering full connexion, becoming supernumeraries and receiving dispensations to perform the sacrament.
Discipline cases include: fiscal irregularities; neglect of duty; immoral behaviour; misadministration of overseas districts and/or their institutions; insubordination; marrying without permission; breach of promise.
