___________________________________________________

We petition that the 1992 legislation requiring the relocation of the General Board of Global Ministries from its present site in New York City be repealed and that no further action be taken in this regard.

We believe that the proposed relocation subjects the Church to a grossly unnecessary expense, that such relocation is a serious breach of the principles of Christian stewardship, and that the relocation would cause serious deterioration of the quality of our service to our overseas and national mission personnel, as well as decrease the overall performance of our executive staff.
