Resolutions and Supporting Materials
9-13 denies delegates the opportunity to change bylaws about overruling CCM opinions, officer tenure, and create a way to talk about controverted issues.
Moving the Synod President election back to the convention will re-politicize the convention. You can register electors at district conventions again.
9-08 calls for greater participation of nonvoting advisory delegates. It also creates a novel office for lay people of “hearers of the Word.”
7-05 creates a new bylaw for the appointment and removal of Board of Regent. Sadly, removal may be based on accusation, not proof.
7-03 calls for CTX to repent. After hearing the story from both sides, delegates should vote for everyone to repent and resolve the CTX issue.
7-01 and 7-02 give thanks for two more closed Concordias. Are other Concordias in danger of closing? What’s happening with the HotChalk lawsuit?
Instead of “Affirming and Clarifying,” this resolution changes a bylaw about the Alternate Route Program into one that restricts Colloquy.
Resolution 6-04 seeks to affirm, define and limit the roles of lay people in the Church by introducing new terms describing the pastoral office.
Resolution 6-03 seeks to study and limit the SMP program. When we need more pastors in pulpits, it assumes SMP pastors are not well-trained.
Overtures in Omnibus A resolutions will be referred to Boards and Commissions. At least five overtures should be considered by delegates.
