The morning session of the GA of the PC(USA) was relatively quiet, except for the report of the nominating committee.  There were a number of challenges to the nominating committee's candidates.  In general, the committee's candidates prevailed, but some by a small margin.  Interestingly, two of the three candidates for the Advocacy Committee for Women's Concerns were challenged and in both cases the floor nominee prevailed by votes of 248/241 and 295/185.

As there usually is in speak out, there were a few interesting and amusing comments.  One YAD encouraged churches to elect younger elders.
