BWA World Congress Resolution 1955.5

The members of the Congress understand that there is a strong desire that at the Conference on Bible Study and Sunday School Work to be held on Friday afternoon, 22nd July, certain definite proposals or plans for action should be put forward and approved.

Since that meeting will take place too late for any such proposals to be presented to the Congress for discussion or adoption, we therefore remit them to the Executive Committee for consideration and any action they think right, and we similarly remit to the Executive any other matters of unfinished business as may arise from the Congress proceedings.
