	\|a=No. Letters which inform a member of a pending disciplinary council, as well as letters which formally inform them of the council's decision typically read only that the member "has been accused of conduct unbecoming a member of the Church," or "has been found guilty of conduct ~~unbecoming a member~~ of the Church."<br><br>		\|a=No. Letters which inform a member of a pending disciplinary council, as well as letters which formally inform them of the council's decision typically read only that the member "has been accused of conduct unbecoming a member of the Church," or "has been found guilty of conduct contrary to the laws and order of the Church."<br><br>

	Such language is simply "placeholder" phrasing that comes directly from the Church's handbook for leaders. It is intended to avoid disclosing the specific grounds for discipline to anyone else who might happen to see the letter.<br><br>		Such language is simply "placeholder" phrasing that comes directly from the Church's handbook for leaders.

	# if the offense might harm the good name of the Church, excommunication signals to others that the offender cannot claim membership while persisting in behavior which the Church regards as unacceptable. It also avoids the impression that the Church condones or winks at inappropriate behavior.		# if the offense might harm the good name of the Church, excommunication signals to others that the offender cannot claim membership while persisting in behavior which the Church regards as unacceptable.

	Excommunicated members are no longer considered to be members of the Church, and they are under all the restrictions of disfellowshipment. They are also not entitled to pay tithes or offerings, or wear temple garments. Such an individual may continue to attend Church if their conduct is orderly. Excommunication always lasts at least one year.		Excommunicated members are no longer considered to be members of the Church, and they are under all the restrictions of disfellowshipment.
