PC(USA) - 216th General Assembly (2004)     Home > General Assembly 216     Commissioners had questions, we have answers A number of questions surfaced during this year's Commissioner's Orientation session. See the answers in this written report. [Read more] These resources will help you interpret the Assembly  Continuing the Journey (Data CD) Contains highlights and reviews of the 216th General Assembly (2004).

Free copy provided to commissioners and advisory delegates.  #OGA04033 - $5.00 [See more resources] Stand against gay-ordination upheld Assembly turns back bid to set aside '78 ‘authoritative interpretation' The 216th General Assembly voted Friday evening to retain an “authoritative interpretation” of the constitution of the Presbyterian Church (USA) that forbids the ordination of “self-affirming, practicing homosexuals” as officers of the church. The Assembly's Committee on Church Orders and Ministry had proposed that the interpretation, adopted in 1978 and re-affirmed several times by General Assemblies and church courts, be declared to be no longer binding on sessions and presbyteries. [Read more] Kirkpatrick re-elected as stated clerk  The Rev. Clifton Kirkpatrick, the General Assembly stated clerk, easily won re-election to a third four-year term Friday morning in a first-ballot victory over three evangelical challengers. Kirkpatrick received 349 votes, nearly 66 percent. The Rev. Robert “Bob” Davis, a pastor from Escondido, CA, who is also executive director of the conservative renewal organization, the Presbyterian Forum, finished second with 137 votes. The Rev. Linn “Rus” Howard, a pastor from Venetia, PA, finished third, with 25, and Elder Alex Metherell, of St. Andrews Presbyterian Church in Newport Beach, CA, trailed with 19. [Read more] Families paper approved The General Assembly overwhelmingly approved a much-rewritten report on the ever-changing American family Thursday night. After a brief discussion, the commissioners endorsed “Transforming Families,” which sets Presbyterian Church (USA) policy for ministering to families, by a vote of 482 to 23, with four abstentions. The Assembly's National Issues Committee had recommended approval. Last year's Assembly had a far different experience with the original version of the report, authored by the denomination's Advisory Committee on Social Witness Policy (ACSWP) in response to an order from the 1997 Assembly.

Photo by Danny Bolin Bid to change abortion policy fails The General Assembly voted Thursday to have PC(USA) officials issue a pastoral letter on problem pregnancy calling attention to existing “excellent” resources available to women dealing with such pregnancies and asking congregations to help find adoptive families in the faith community for children whose mothers cannot care for them. The commissioners earlier voted by the slimmest of margins — four votes — not to consider the majority report of the Assembly Health Issues Committee, but instead to take up a minority report recommending the pastoral letter. [Read more] Theological task force report approved The General Assembly approved the interim report of the Theological Task Force on Peace, Unity and Purity of the Church Wednesday, endorsing its call for sessions and presbyteries to bring Presbyterians of differing theological views together in covenant to discuss its affirmations. The report was presented by Jenny Stoner, a co-chair of the task force, and members Mark Achtemeier and Stacy Johnson. Achtemeier, a professor of theology at Dubuque Theological Seminary, said: “Do we make purity our main principle — or accept compromises, and make peace and unity our priorities? None of the above. This is a false approach. This is all about us.” [Read more] Budget panel's business sails through With little debate and just one amendment, the General Assembly acted on the recommendations of its Mission Coordination and Budget committee “in record time,” committee Moderator Catesby Woodford said from the podium Thursday night. The Assembly approved a commissioner's resolution to “strengthen Hispanic-Latino ministry” in the church through the hiring of more Spanish-speaking staff and implementation of a new Hispanic strategy in the 2007-2008 budget. [Read more] Worship plates a smash hit The Sunday worship service at the 216th General Assembly was a high point for the 8,000 people who attended, and the more than 2,000 volunteers who made it possible. For the Rev. Michelle Junkin, it was a dream come true. Junkin, an associate pastor of Ginter Park Presbyterian Church and one of Richmond-area artists who created the vividly-painted “charger” plates that were put under the pewter Communion sets in the Richmond coliseum. The other artists were the Rev. Janet James, an associate pastor of Second Presbyterian Church, and Janice McMurray, an active Presbyterian lay person. [Read more]  Three local artists Rev. Michelle, Phillip Junkin, Janice McMurray and The Rev. Janet James created the painted chargers used on the communion table during Sunday's opening worship service. Photo by David P. Young Arizona elder chosen as moderator Elder Rick Ufford-Chase, a 40-year-old border mission worker from the Southside Presbyterian Church in Tucson, Arizona, was elected moderator of the 216th General Assembly Saturday night. Ufford-Chase will be the first Presbyterian Church (USA) moderator to serve for two years. He apparently impressed the commissioners with his deep commitment to risky, life-on-the-line mission work. Ufford-Chase founded BorderLinks, a bi-national organization that tries to connect and educate people of faith on both sides of the U.S./Mexico border. He has served BorderLinks for 17 years.
