Article XVI.
Easter Observances.— Section 2. In the United States there shall be no special observances, festivities, nor gifts at the Easter season by members of the Mother Church. Gratitude and love should abide in every heart each day of all the years. Those sacred words of our beloved Master, "let the dead bury their dead," and "follow thou me," appeal to daily Christian endeavors for the living whereby to exemplify our risen Lord.
Article XIX.
Teaching in Sunday School.— Section 4. Members of the Mother Church in Boston, Mass., shall not teach, nor allow members of their church to teach, scholars in the Sunday Schools who are more than fifteen years of age.
Article XXVI.
Church Organizations Ample.— Section 14. Members of the Mother Church shall not be made members of clubs or organizations, the Free Masons excepted, which exclude either sex or are not named in the Manual of the Mother Church. God separates the tares and wheat to garner the latter in His storehouse.
