At a special meeting on April 13, the Administrative Committee (AC) of the Presbyterian Church in America approved a recommendation to postpone the General Assembly scheduled to meet in Birmingham on June 15-19, 2020. The recommendation came from the moderator, Ruling Elder J. Howard Donahoe, and the stated clerk of the General Assembly, Dr. L. Roy Taylor, in the interests of the health and safety of PCA commissioners and their families.

Moreover, the AC approved a recommendation to schedule the meeting of the 48th General Assembly for June 29-July 2, 2021, in St. Louis, Missouri, hosted by Missouri Presbytery. It also approved a recommendation to hold the 49th General Assembly in Birmingham in 2022, hosted by Evangel Presbytery.

The AC invites churches and their members to join us in prayer as we ask for God’s mercy upon the church, nation, and world during this time.
