Here you can find a number of documents of interest relating to the National Assembly. If you are looking for something and can't find it here, let us know and we will try to find it for you. If you are looking for documents relating to the 8th, 9th or 10th Assemblies, try the Triennial Assembly page.You'll find Update, the National Assembly monthly newsletter, on the Update page. For news and media releases try the Media releases pages. If it relates to a particular Agency or Working Group the information is probably on their individual sites, And if all this is just too confusing, cut through the tape by using our search engine. (It searches everything on the Assembly sites, including the 30 Agencies, Working Groups and Task Groups - But NOT the synod sites)
