These resources help presbyters prepare to vote on the 10 proposed constitutional amendments at the stated presbytery meeting on February 9, 2019. The official amendment texts are in the Proposed Amendments to the Constitution 2018 document prepared by the Office of the General Assembly (OGA). That document includes summaries of comments from various groups on the proposed changes. The Association of Stated Clerks, a national organization of clerks serving presbyteries and synods, has also prepared an analysis that supplements the OGA amendments book. A very limited number of OGA amendment book copies will be available at the February 9 presbytery meeting, so presbyters are advised to make their own copies and study them prior to the meeting.
