Annual Council discusses proposed Document on Unity and Reconciliation

Document referred back to Unity in Mission Oversight Committee

Although the document presented to the Executive Council of the General Conference on November 9 dealt with adherence to church policy in general it is admitted that it was triggered by GC leadership because of what they call non-compliance of some Unions in the world church to the vote in San Antonio in 2015 on women’s ordination.

Following nearly six hours of discussion and debate, a majority of members of the Executive Committee of the General Conference (GC) of Seventh-day Adventists voted during their Annual Council meeting to send a document entitled Procedures for Reconciliation and Adherence in Church Governance: Phase II, back to the Unity in Mission Oversight Committee for further review.
