NOTICE OF DISSOLUTION

 

Swedish Baptist Church of Reynolds

 

Pursuant to Minn. Stat. § 317A.727, Reynolds Baptist Church and Reynolds Baptist Church f/k/a the Swedish Baptist Church of Reynolds (hereinafter, together, “Reynolds Baptist”) (EIN: 41-1463377) is providing written notice to known and potential creditors that the organization is in the process of dissolving. Reynolds Baptist was originally organized under Minnesota Statutes Chapter 315 in 1896. Thereafter, on March 23, 2007, Reynolds Baptist formed a Minnesota nonprofit corporation organized under Minnesota Statutes Chapter 317A (File Number 2276906-2). More recently, on July 1, 2025, Reynolds Baptist elected to convert the Chapter 315 organization to a nonprofit corporation governed under Minnesota Statutes Chapter 317A (File Number 1566778600042). It is believed that both legal entities used the same EIN and operated as the same organization. Reynolds Baptist’s Board of Directors executed a written resolution on October 24, 2024, voting via written action to dissolve the organization. The motion passed unanimously 2-0, with no abstaining votes. On July 29, 2025, Reynolds Baptist filed a Notice of Intent to Dissolve with the Minnesota Secretary of State’s Office pursuant to Minn. Stat. § 317A.723. Any written claims against Reynolds Baptist must be presented by October 31, 2025 and mailed to:
