The primary source of the convention’s business is the Book of Reports and Memorials (BORAM), which contains various departmental reports as well as formal petitions to the synod convention called “memorials.” A memorial outlines a particular item of business for consideration by the delegates. Check out the BORAM as well as additional information below.

Convention delegates: Read the BORAM to get the full picture of the synod’s work. You will be assigned to a floor committee whose responsibility will be to react and respond to an assigned portion of BORAM.
