SUMMARY:General Conference 13th Session
DESCRIPTION:General Conference 13th Session\n2-6 September 2024 | 4-6 December 2024\nThe Methodist Church in Singapore (MCS) will be holding its Thirteenth Session of the General Conference (GC) from 2–6 September 2024 and 4–6 December 2024.\nThis regular session of the GC is held once every 4 years (a quadrennium), where delegates from the three Annual Conferences (CAC, ETAC and TRAC) come together to revise church laws, approve work plans and budgets for church-wide programmes, as well as adopt resolutions on moral and social issues. The GC organises councils and agencies for the general work of MCS, and during the course of its regular session, elections are held for various officers of the GC and of these councils and agencies to serve in the coming quadrennium. This includes the election of a Bishop to oversee the affairs of MCS and the work of the GC.\nAt its regular session, the GC also receives and debates petitions, which are proposals to make changes to The Book of Discipline (BOD), our rule-book that describes how we are organised and administered as well as our Constitution and Doctrinal Statements and General Rules.\nParticipation in this GC session is by invitation only.\nJoin us in prayer for:\n\nElected office-holders, especially our new Bishop, Rev Philip Lim, and the major office-holders, such as the Chairpersons of the various Councils, as they oversee the church’s work over the next four years\nThe decisions that were made on behalf of MCS, such as matters of church law and policy, and for those who are working on the amendments for the next edition of The Book of Discipline\nAny remaining reports and decisions to be completed in December, for smooth completion, as we look forward to the church’s faithful and dynamic ministry in the new quadrennium ahead\nGood health, protection and alertness of the delegates and supporting staff as the proceedings continue in December and that the remaining sessions may be carried out smoothly and thoroughly\n\n
