The 60th General Conference Session of the Seventh-day Adventist Church
met last month in San Antonio, Texas. The SDA church considers the
general conference session its highest authority. Approximately 2500
delegates were appointed to the session, representing the church around
the world. During the 10 days of the session, they conducted an array
of business, including electing dozens of officers and administrators,
making changes to the Church Manual, modifying the church’s fundamental
beliefs, and deciding whether or not to permit various areas of the
world church to choose whether or not to ordain women as ministers. The
panel will provide insights into not only the decisions made but the
processes that led to them.
Adventist Forum is open to the public. All are welcome. For
