Help Shape the Future of the United Church
Learn about and then voice
your opinion on the remits that are now before the church. It is
vitally important that the governing body of every pastoral charge
and presbytery cast a vote on all applicable remits. An absolute
majority is needed for the remits to pass, not just a majority of
those that vote. If passed by an absolute majority, each remit will
go to the 43rd General Council 2018 for approval. If a governing
body of a pastoral charge or presbytery does not vote, that is
considered a vote AGAINST the remit question.
Study documents for Remit
1: Three Council Model will be circulated in September with
viewing of the United Church webinar at St. Mark’s on October 4th
at 7:00 p.m. Remit 1 will be voted on by your church board at their
October meeting.
