FOR IMMEDIATE RELEASE
Meeting on February 20, the Commission on the General Conference made a decision to further postpone the 2020 General Conference until August 29 – September 6, 2022 in Minneapolis, Minn. as the COVID-19 pandemic continues to affect the safety of mass gatherings and travel.
It is the Commission’s responsibility to select the site and set
the dates of General Conference. Further, the Book of Discipline requires
the Commission on the General Conference to "take necessary measures to
assure full participation of all General Conference delegates." The
Commission concluded that mandate was not achievable by means of either an
in-person meeting in 2021 or a virtual meeting.
