In 2020, the Convention met remotely to comply with the public health order. It also adopted Canon 1.02, which authorizes the Convention to meet by remote means during declared public emergencies, as well as special rules to govern such meetings. The Convention again met remotely in 2021 and 2022, while the gubernatorially declared public emergency for Covid-19 remained in effect.<\/p>\n<p>This resolution removes any question about the validity of the acts of the Convention taken while it met remotely, including any question about whether the Convention could convene remotely to adopt the canon and rules authorizing remote meetings. This resolution also ratifies and approves the actions taken by church constituents in reliance on the acts of the Convention while meeting remotely.<\/p>\n<p>[\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=\u00bb4.17.6&#8243;
