volved in and supportive of the programs carried out by
the Board for Mission Services (BFMS); and

the two auxiliaries would benefit both the mission of the
Synod and the mission of the auxiliaries; and

responsibility a study of the composition of the BFMS in-
cluding its advisory members; therefore be it

or advisory-membership status for representatives of the
two auxiliaries of the Synod; and be it further

Resolved, That until the task force recommendations
are implemented, the BFMS continue to communicate and
work with the ILWML and the ILLL to demonstrate their
partnership in the task of telling everyone what He has
done; and be it further

Resolved, That the respective presidents of the ILWML
and the ILLL be invited to be present as advisory members
of the BFMS following this convention and throughout the
current triennium; and be it further

Resolved, That the recommendations on this matter
with appropriate Bylaw changes be brought to the 1992
convention; and be it finally

Resolved, That the Synod praise God for the mission
and ministry of the ILWML and the ILLL.
