VIII. Article 8 - Church Facilities and Cemetery


     All the facilities and properties of the church are dedicated to Jesus Christ and shall be used only for those activities that are approved by the church as being consistent with the Word of God and the ministry purposes of the church. The cemetery committee shall consist of the pastor, the chairman of the deacons, and a trustee. At least one member of this committee shall supervise all grave openings and monument erections in accordance with church directives and state laws. 
     Active church members and their immediate family (husband, wife, unmarried children in the home), or a person having a spouse already buried at Catawba, may be buried in the cemetery. Inactive members (as spelled out in Article 5, Section 2, Number 4) may only be buried in the cemetery under the latter condition. No plot shall be laid off in the cemetery ahead of time, with the exception of a plot for the spouse of a person already buried in the cemetery.
