What business is coming to GA in Minneapolis?
It can be challenging to keep up with the flow of new business to the General Assembly in a GA year. Below is a short list of items that commissioners will consider in July.
n-FOG (New Form of Government)
Civil Unions & Christian Marriage committee report
Re-developed materials for counseling in problem pregnancies
New materials for an Adolescent Development Curricula
Possibly several papers from ACSWP
The Belhar Confession
Overtures to strengthen ordination requirements in G-6.0106b
Overtures to delete, redefine, or weaken ordination requirements in G-6.0106b.
Overtures to change the function of Synods
More is coming every week. Did you know that even if you are not a commissioner you can access all the business coming to the General assembly online? Simply go to pc-biz.org. Be sure you have 219th GA selected and click on the Explorer tab. I urge you to become informed and then let your Presbytery's commissioners know what kinds of actions you would like to see the General Assembly take to help us be the Church of Jesus Christ in the world.
Watch for resources on the above topics in future emails from Presbyterians Pro-Life. |
