GS 2016 art 53

GS 2016 Article 53 – Appeal of LRCA re: GS 2013 Art. 62

1. Material

  • 1.1    Letter from the Liberated Reformed Church at Abbotsford (LRCA) (8.6.8.1)

2. Admissibility

  • 2.1    GS 2013 (Art. 62) declared their letter inadmissible. GS 2013 observed, “The churches of the Canadian Reformed federation set the agenda for general synod. No church has asked us to address this issue. Synod also accepts correspondence received from churches with which we are in Ecclesiastical Fellowship. The letter from the LRCA does not fulfil either criterion.” GS 2016 agrees with GS 2013’s observation.

3. Recommendation

That Synod declare the letter inadmissible.
