The Episcopal Church’s General Convention office has produced a 25-page summary of actions of the 76th General Convention available as a downloadable, searchable PDF.

From Episcopal Life Online-

The 76th General Convention, meeting in Anaheim, California, July 8-17, acted on or referred every one of the 419 resolutions it considered. Below is an unofficial, unaudited, abbreviated summary of some of the resolutions passed by both the House of Bishops and the House of Deputies. ENS staff culled it from the General Convention Office’s searchable legislative tracking website.

Meanwhile, the church’s General Convention office has produced a 25-page summary of convention actions available here. It includes a list of resolutions sorted by their final status; a list of resolutions that deal with the church’s constitution, canons and the convention’s rules of order; and lists of resolutions referred to dioceses, committees, commission, agencies and boards or church center staff; as well as a list of the appointments and elections made during convention.
