Randy,

Is there a typo in the list you sent out for nominations? You have-
 "Lay Female Voting Member of Churchwide Assembly  (to be held August 8-13
2016 in New Orleans, LA)"
listed twice. Is that supposed to be clergy?

I'm not really reading my "work" emails since I am on vacation so did not
see this till today and will need to see if I can pull names together from
New Creation.

Thank you.

Pr Cristina
