On Sunday, November 17, Elder Craig Barth, presented on the 226th PC(USA) General Assembly. Craig was honored to be elected by the Presbytery of the Highlands to serve as a Commissioner to the PC(USA)’s 226th General Assembly, this past June and July. Craig provided an illuminating view from inside the General Assembly. In the course of his presentation, he addressed a number of questions: What is General Assembly? What happened at this year’s gathering? How was the experience? What kinds of changes in our Denomination can we expect as a result?
