Q: Has church leadership already determined the outcome on issues of same-gender marriage and ordaining people in same-gender relationships?
A: No, church leadership is committed to discernment leading to the USA National Conference. This process will include spiritual practices, dialogue, scripture reflection, and study of credible resources that provide multiple perspectives on human sexuality and healthy, faithful, and committed relationships.

I don't believe that. Present and former apostles have already made up their minds. Mary Jacks Dynes is a former apostle and still on the staff of the c-not-of-c and an instructor in their seminary.
Mary Jacks Dynes, CofC apostle was in charge of Canada East Mission Center

"I am also grateful for the heart-touching guest ministry offered to us by Martha Juillerat, a former Presbyterian minister who is the director of the Shower of Stoles Project; Mary Jacks Dynes, the Regional Administrator for the Pacific Northwest Region; Paul Davis, the Seattle Stake President, and Janis Webb, our outgoing GALA board member."

THE IDENTITY OF THE CHURCH Page 2
The message of the gospel is concerned with the deepest human needs. It offers no solutions for the problem of collective evil, the question of death, nor even a solution for sin. The gospel is the assurance that all is changed in Christ.
(notice how they contradicted themselves by claiming that all is changed in Christ but that He offers no solution for sin? lois)
