Understanding Petition Numbers

Add new text to the end of ¶ 515.4:

The bishop may so define the size of the districts (ideally 10 to 15 charges) so that superintendents would be able to use a portion of their time pastoring a local church. The local church would provide housing, office space, and a portion of the superintendent's salary. This would create a significant increase in superintendents. Therefore, the bishop each year would select an appointive cabinet from among the superintendents.
