General Council Lay Delegates
General Council Lay Delegate selection is due March 28, 2025.
​This year you will have the opportunity to be a part of history in the making as we elect our next president of the C&MA. Not only will your vote help determine the future or our denomination but you will have the opportunity of rubbing shoulders with missionaries, pastors, key leaders in the Alliance, and friends you didn’t even know were friends.
​
Accredited churches are allowed to send two lay delegates to General Council.**
All lay delegates must be approved by the church governing board and the minutes must be submitted by March 28, 2025. In addition, all lay delegates must be approved by the district office. Please email Teresa at office@wgldcma.org for the Lay Delegate Certification Form.
**Two lay delegates are allowed from each accredited church of The C&MA. If the voting membership (as reported in the most recent annual report of the church) is 150 or more, another lay delegate may be sent for each additional 100 voting members or fraction thereof. For example, if the voting membership of an accredited church is between 150 and 249, the church may send one additional lay delegate; if the voting membership is between 250 and 349, the church may send two additional lay delegates. The church shall appoint and certify lay delegates as specified in the local church bylaws (2024 Manual, p. A2-7, Section 6.2, A(3)).​
