Officer election

During a welcome from the host parish, the Sts. Vartanantz Church of Chelmsford, MA, and the organizing committee chair John Amboian, he noted that this is the third time in the past couple decades the parish has hosted the Assembly. Following his remarks, delegates approved last year's minutes with a few clarifications.

They then discussed this year's agenda. They moved the report of the Fund for Armenian Relief from Saturday to Friday after lunch. Also moved to Friday was a discussion on by-laws. A proposal to discuss the recent sociological study on Friday instead of Saturday, because the expert who conducted the survey will only be available on Saturday.

Delegates discussed the election process for Saturday morning during which they will elect members to the Diocesan Council. The elections will take place Saturday before lunch.

They then cast their ballots for Assembly officers.
