CWM Announcements Jan. 3/10

Last week the First Presidency requested the Council of Twelve to prayerfully consider if it was appropriate and timely for the legislation being considered at World Conference to be posted online. The entire leadership team recognizes the sensitivity and potential difficulty created by this action due to particular issues coming before the Conference.

The Council of Twelve supports posting the legislation online in English, French and Spanish and joins the Presidency in calling the entire church to prayer as we come together in April.

All World Conference legislation will be posted on January 4 at www.CofChrist.org/wc2010.
