It is obviously not possible, within the time constraints of the convention, to thoroughly discuss every issue, nor is it economically fea- sible to conduct a convention of unlimited time. Furthermore, many memorials request action which is the responsibility of various boards, commissions, or indi- viduals to study and to implement. Resolved, That the following overtures be placed in Res- olution A and be referred to the designated board, commis- sion, or individual: OMNIBUS RESOLUTIONS RESOLUTION A 159 Subject Board, Commission, Individual Materials in Language of the Deaf - Board for Mission Services Mission Outreach in England Board for Mission Services Approach New Millennium as Board of Directors International Lutheran Church Witness to Muslims Board for Mission Services Liturgical Orders President of Synod Worship Service Material of Auxiliaries President of Synod Youth Gatherings Congregational Services & Board for Youth Services Afrocentric Curriculum Congregational Services & Board for Parish Services Secretary Walter L.
