The Europe Pre-Assembly will help enable delegates to take part fully in the Assembly. 

Delegates will gain the confidence to propose motions and amendments and argue and debate resolutions and issues, ensuring substantive discussions and good use of Assembly time and resources. 

This Pre-Assembly will facilitate a contextual reading of the Assembly’s themes and issues so that delegates come to the Assembly prepared to share their part of the global story.  

It will also present a message on topical issues of concern. 

This Pre-Assembly will:  

• harvest the fruits of Europe regional work from Windhoek to Krakow 
• provide contextual reflections on Assembly themes, the highlights of which will be incorporated into the Assembly discussion 
• orientate participants on the Thirteenth Assembly 
• include worship, as well as a time to remember those within the church who lost their lives to COVID-19 
• present a slate of nominees for the next LWF Council
