		The name "Alliance" was chosen as an internationally understood term to describe the partnership and to reflect the desire for a clear identity, while functioning with a streamlined, minimal structure, not a heavily centralized denominational bureaucracy.
		"Mennonite Evangelical" was chosen to indicate that as Evangelical Christians, who make no apology for holding to an infallible written Word of God and a Gospel with only one Savior for the whole world, congregations of the Alliance value the distinctives of their Mennonite theological heritage within the Evangelical movement.
		Membership in the Alliance is by congregations who agree to the Statement of Doctrine and the Purposes as described in the adopted Prospectus.
