N.J. Stat. § 16:20-4
Any church heretofore incorporated in this State, with the consent of the Bishop of the Coptic Orthodox Diocese in which its place of worship is located, may reincorporate under the provisions of this act by filing in the office of the Secretary of State, and a copy thereof in the office of the county clerk in the county in which its principal place of worship is located, a certificate, signed by the trustees in office at the time of that reincorporation, in which the majority of those trustees set forth that they desire to reincorporate under the provisions of this act. The certificate shall include the corporate name by which that church shall be known, the county and municipality where its principal place of worship is located, and the names of the bishop and two or more persons appointed by the bishop from among the priests and deacons of that church, who shall constitute the initial board of trustees of the church. Immediately upon the filing of that certificate all the right, title, equity and interest of that church in any estate, real or personal, together with all franchise and charter rights, shall be vested in the body corporate so created under this act and the original incorporation of that church shall be null and void.
