Bulletin of Reports for National Convention

The Bulletin of Reports for the 2007 ELCIC Convention has been posted at the ELCIC's National Convention web site. The Bulletin of Reports is a package of information that helps the delegates to conduct the business of the convention. Included in the Bulletin of Reports is the agenda as well as various reports, including the report of the national bishop (pages E-1 to E-6) and the National Church Council, and motions that are up for consideration. Two major orders of business for this convention are the election of a new national bishop and a vote on the NCC's synodical local option motion. Inexplicably the petition submitted from Grace, Kelowna, which convincingly calls into question the constitutionality of the National Church Council's motion attempting to give synods the authority to make decisions on matters such as same-sex blessings, is missing fromSection G (Motions) of the Bulletin of Reports.
UPDATE: We have subsequently been advised by the National Bishop that because of a sorting error the Grace, Kelowna motion did not appear in the Bulletin of Reports that was posted on-line. We were told that the error was discovered before the docket went to print so the motion will appear in the mailed out packets. The on-line edition also has been corrected. The Grace, Kelowna petition now appears at the end of Section G of the Bulletin of Reports on pages G-33 to G-36.
