Proposed Amendments and Related Documents
We will vote on the final group of proposed amendments to the Book of Order. These relate to the section “Book of Discipline.” One amendment will replace the current “Book of Discipline” (BOD) with a rewritten “Church Discipline.” The other 4 amendments would amend the current BOD in the event the replacement amendment is not approved by a majority of presbyteries.
