Synod PJC Training on the New Church Discipline

The new Book of Order will be published by July 9th.  There are multiple changes to the former Rules of Discipline which is now called Church Discipline.  To make sure that PJC members, mid council leaders, COM members and others within the Synod who may need to know Church Discipline are aware of these changes, the Synod plans three sets of trainings: In person in Albany, NY all day on Monday October 16th, in person in New Jersey (place TBD) all day on October 19th and a set of virtual trainings (three sessions of two hours) on November 1st, 6th and 14th.  The time for the virtual trainings will be planned for early evening so that anyone who works during the day can attend.  Elder Flor Velez-Diaz, Manager of Judicial Process at the Office of the General Assembly will provide all training.  She is an excellent trainer who can hold people’s interest.  If you have any questions, please contact Stated Clerk Nancy Talbot at 315-480-3553 or nancy.talbot@synodne.org.  More specific information will follow.
