Dividing the work load

Delegates to General Conference will serve on one of 11 legislative committees. The delegates chose their committee assignments in the order they were elected at the annual conference session.

These committees spend the first week of General Conference dealing with petitions and offering recommendations of concurrence or non-concurrence to the full body.

A resolution must have the approval of General Conference before it is added to the denominations Book of Discipline or Book of Resolutions.
