New Revision Process
At Annual Session of 2009 the process for revising the Faith and Practice was changed. The goal of this revision was stated in this way:
"The process is being changed so that Friends can be involved at an earlier stage in developing the material and so that meetings and worship groups can have the benefit of input from one another as they process the material."
The new process was described to the Coordinating Committee and implemented with two interest groups. The following documents explain the new process more detail detail.
- Written description of the new revision process [PDF]

- Revised job description for the Committee of the Discipline [PDF]
