- The motion now reads:
- "That Synod notes with approval that the new Third Canadian Eucharist omits the filioque clause in the Nicene Creed, thus restoring the original text: we understand this action to be in response to the Lambeth Conference Resolution 35, part 3, and made at the request of the Eastern Orthodox Churches. We express the hope that all future revisions of Canadian Anglican liturgies follow this example, while leaving present formularies intact. This action implies no change in the doctrine expressed in Article 5 of the Thirty-Nine Articles contained in the Book of Common Prayer.
