General Conference 2008
In my world, the buzz concerns the upcoming General Conference and legislative actions that might impact not only the UMC in general, but also our local churches. Since this happens only every four years, good refresher information may be found at this website. Delegates from the South Carolina Conference are busy preparing for this event. Let's be in prayer for and with them as they take on this most important work.

Any United Methodist individual or organization may petition General Conference. Each petition should only address one paragraph in the Book of Discipline or one subject in the Book of Resolutions. The petition should include a suggested topic, clear indication of the additions and deletions and whether financial costs are involved.
The above is from the website.
I understand what is indicated as the process. I do wonder if many individuals no where to get a copy of the two Books to be able to know what to petition. Tom
