What it is
The Committee on Nominations proposes the people who fill elected positions across
the conference's boards, commissions, and vision teams. The Discipline asks it to
work toward inclusiveness — clergywomen, youth and young adults, older adults, small
churches, people with disabilities, and racial and ethnic persons — and to balance
representation across districts.
How it works at conference
The committee brings a preliminary report early, which includes the process for
nominations from the floor, and a final report acted on later in the session
(Rule 25). If you want to nominate someone, the preliminary report is the moment to
learn how.
