Sec. 33-264h. Conveyances by ecclesiastical societies to religious societies and
corporations. Any ecclesiastical society which is not a religious society within the
meaning of section 33-264a and which is associated with such a religious society or
with a religious corporation may, by a two-thirds vote of its members present and voting
at a meeting warned and held for that purpose, transfer and convey to such religious
society or religious corporation all the property and estate of such ecclesiastical society
and all trust funds held by it, to be held by such religious society or religious corporation
under and upon the same uses and trusts upon which the same had been previously held
by such ecclesiastical society. The religious society or religious corporation accepting
such transfer shall thereupon become primarily liable for all the then existing debts and
obligations of the transferring ecclesiastical society, and such debts and obligations shall
be a first lien upon the property so transferred, except such of it as has been held in trust.
Each unvested gift or legacy to an ecclesiastical society which, pursuant to the provisions
of section 33-264i, has ceased to exist, shall inure to and vest in the religious society or
religious corporation which has taken its place.
