A live report from the 2005 US National Conference and General Conference. US National ConferenceJune 20-23 Many UBs from across the USA kept up with the proceedings of the US National Conference via a live, ongoing report by Steve Dennie. His writings from the three days of the conference can be read using the links below. Tuesday Wednesday Thursday The US National Conference concluded at 12:15 on Thursday afternoon. The international General Conference then convened at 1:30. There were 21 delegates, plus a variety of advisory persons and spectators. An online report was not kept of the meeting, which consisted mostly of verbal updates from the various national conferences about the work they are doing--informational stuff. Very few business items were on the table. The main such item--and this is significant--was the acceptance of two new national conferences into the United Brethren worldwide community: Mexico and the Philippines. Other decisions will be reported when the minutes are available. |
