The 76th General Convention

Jul 08, 2009 - Jul 17, 2009
Anaheim Convention Center, Anaheim, California United States

Highlights: Introduction to General Convention
by Gregory Straub, Executive Officer and Secretary of General Convention
With few precedents for a republican form of church governance the first General Convention met in 1785 in Philadelphia. That convention began work on a constitution and a revision of the Book of Common Prayer, the church’s book of worship. Within ten years the General Convention had agreed on its form of governance and its pattern of worship, both of which endure to the present day.
