Presbyterian statement for faith extends women's ministry rights
Salt Lake City coverage of the 202nd General Assembly where commissioners approved a new statement of faith merging historic creeds with modern concerns on environment and gender equality. The document, if ratified by two-thirds of presbyteries and the 1991 assembly, would be the churchs 11th confession and the first to affirm women in all ministries. It also emphasizes care for the planet, while upholding core Christological beliefs. The assembly also funded a $1 million, five-year program for black men self help and voted to pursue normalized relations with Cuba, though free elections were not adopted.
