Alston voted GC Committee Chair

Rev. Ellen Alston, head of the Louisiana Conference delegation to General Conference 2012, was voted to chair the Legislative Committee for Superintendency. “This is a prestigious honor and great responsibility that very few delegates receive, and we are proud to celebrate with her as she leads our global church in considering proposals on term-limits for bishops, status of Bishops after retirement, and having a set-aside Bishop for the denomination,” wrote Rev. Katie McKay Simpson in her blog from General Conference in Tampa, Fla.
