Synod 2009 Gets Underway

The Bishops of the Scottish Episcopal Church during the Eucharist service that opened Synod 2009

Posted Thursday 11 June 2009

The 2009 General Synod, held in Palmerston Place Church, opened with Eucharist. The Primus’ Charge spoke of visions and dreams of the mission of the church.

Business got underway with a welcome from the Primus to the delegates and guests.  Preliminary business included welcoming Delegates from other churches.

The Minutes of the General Synod of 12th to 14th of June 2008 were approved, and various points of housekeeping and business were introduced. 
Professor Patricia Peattie then introduced Motion 2, the Annual Report and Accounts of the Church for the financial year ending 31st December 2008, which was accepted. The implications of future budgetary pressures were presented.
