In October we held a risk management meeting with Church Mutual Insurance Com-pany. This meeting helps us identify areas where churches may be at risk of experi-encing losses and finding ways that church can reduce their potential for losses.

Concerning discontinued or abandoned church property:

• We have transferred title of the former Marquette Grace church property andassets to First United Methodist Church of Marquette to be used as part ofnew ministries in the area per the request of the district and the local church.

• We have quieted the title to the former Argentine United Methodist Church.We appreciate the Wilcox family, the family of the original grantor of the prop-erty allowing us to have the property free and clear. We will hopefully sell thisproperty soon.

• We have sold the former Amen Korean church and parsonage.

• We are awaiting transfer of title of the former El Buen Pastor church propertyand assets to be used as part of new ministries in the area.

We have continued to have meetings with the West Michigan board of trustees to sharehow each board functions, especially with the sale of closed/abandoned property, andwhat adjustments will need to be made so that when the new conference is established,we are ready to serve. The two boards have also been meeting together to discuss thelegal documents that will be needed in order for the new board of trustees and confer-ence to function. These documents have been written by legal counsel and are readyto be acted upon when the time is proper.

We continue to work with occupants of conference owned parsonages to provide qualityliving conditions for conference staff. Beginning this month, we will have all six of ourdistrict superintendents living in conference owned parsonages.

BLUE WATER DISTRICT“Where visions are cast, objectives are defined and Christ is honored!”

2015 was a year of exciting changes for the Blue Water District. We gathered at theBay Shore Family Camp for our Annual Clergy Retreat on March 16th and 17th. Dr. JoeConnelly, the lead pastor of Wesley UMC in Baton Rouge, LA. was the guest speaker.His areas of concentration are grant writing, community based initiatives, non-profit de-velopment, turnaround strategies, capacity building, church and community strategicplanning.

We celebrated Rev Dr. Joanne Bartelt and Rev. Duane Miller’s servant leadership asour District Superintendent, before welcoming Rev. Elizabeth Hill in July.

The Blue Water District is the first one in the Detroit Annual Conference to certify layspeakers. We now have two: Michael Schlusler and Craig Gormley, both of Lapeer: Tri-nity UMC. Two sessions of both Basic and Advanced Lay Servant classes, spring andfall, were offered throughout the District. In 2015, the Blue Water District had 17 parti-cipate in basic classes. Forty-four people were certified for participating in the followingclasses: Leading Public Prayer, Delivering Effective Sermons, Discovering Your SpiritualGifts, Method of our Mission, Social Principles of UMC, and Story Telling. Classes wereoffered in several different locations spread throughout the District.

This year the district showed strong support for our Christian education program. Theprogram is continuing to grow and change with the needs or our district volunteers.

More training programs, materials, and new methods of communication are starting toevolve with the needs of the district church programs. Our resource room has many upto date materials available for use, our churches are utilizing the programs and re-sources available for training and doing background checks on volunteers, and the youthministry programs are continuing to grow.

The District was able to purchase a building to house the Blue Water Free Store and afuture Ministry on the same site. It is hoped that the property will help us provide ser-vices, ministry and goods for people in the Port Huron area.

On Saturday, September 19th, over 50 church leaders from across the Blue Water Dis-trict gathered at Port Huron: First UMC for our annual training day. This year our trainingday was paired with our district charge conference. The theme for the day was HealthyBody, Mind and Spirit. The morning classes offered participants to hear from both clergyand laity on such topics as: parish nursing ministry, church finance, personal finance,personal and staff retreats, finding time for fitness, building strong youth groups andbuilding new relationships in our communities.

The highlight of the event was having Rev. Dr. Jerry DeVine, Detroit Annual ConferenceDirector of Connectional Ministries, as our guest speaker. Rev. Dr. DeVine challengedthose gathered to continue looking outside the walls of our churches for new opportu-nities for ministry. Rev. Dr. DeVine used the example of the Canaanite women from Mat-thew 15 as way to get us thinking and talking about those who are on the margins ofsociety that have been forgotten about or misunderstood. The day could not have hap-pened without our gracious hosts, Port Huron: First UMC. Rev. William Wright, his staff,the United Methodist Women and the volunteers made sure all of us were greeted, wel-comed, fed and made to feel right at home. We look forward to more opportunities forall of us to connect more often in 2016!

The Blue Water District United Methodist Men (UMM) held two rallies a year. The springrally, held at Lexington UMC on May 3rd, featured Frank Turner, a former Detroit tele-vision news anchor who resigned to become a full-time evangelical Christian ministerand Bible teacher. Music was by the talented Brooks Solterman. The fall rally was heldat held at Central Lakeport UMC on October 11th.

The United Methodist Women Mission Team met in North Branch, Cass City, Snover:Heritage, and West Goodland (in place of Imlay City) UMCs, and we were warmly re-ceived by all the units. Most units were given new shepherds as Zone were restructured,making cluster meetings with several units at the same time a more efficient way toshare information and affirm units that are continuing to do amazing work for women,children and youth. There were several key events in the life of our District: SpiritualGrowth Retreat with Living Truth 2, “Practical Steps for Christian Growth – exploring 4Spiritual ‘Rs’”; as always we had a great time at the Lions Bear Lake Camp north of La-peer for our annual retreat; and our Prayer Breakfast at Cass City UMC with Rev. LindaFuller, pastor at Caseville UMC serving as speaker and Debi Ackerman & Lora Aldrichproviding the music. We were also hosted at Snover: Heritage fUMC or our District An-nual Meeting, where our speaker was Diana Miller on “Living the Vision”. With over 130women in attendance at the Annual Meeting, the District UMW decided to ask for a spurof the moment offering to for help with the United Methodist Community House in GrandRapids. Over $1,000 was received to help the Community House! I am always in aweof the mighty work United Methodist Women do to help women, children and youth, andthis collection certainly confirmed my faith in the Blue Water District. Praise God for allthe generous donors, no matter how much each person gave!

CROSSROADS DISTRICT LEADERSHIP TEAM

The people of the Crossroads District have envisioned a transformed network of con-nected spiritual leaders and churches fully reflecting the Kingdom of God. Never couldwe have imagined the ways in which we have been challenged to experience that trans-formative work in the past year. Issues related to the health and wellness have indeedtransformed our thinking and caused us to look with fresh eyes at our staffing and ourmission focus. As the Flint water crisis unfolded the Urban Ministries Task Force andthe District Leadership Team worked together to contract with Peter Plum to coordinatea response. Rev. Paul Perez, Conference Director for Mission and Justice Engagementand Leadership Recruitment along with our friend Rev. Becky Wilson helped connectus with UMCOR. We are grateful for the connectional system as we worked to keep upwith the demands of processing donations, establishing resource centers, and connect-ing with the people in the communities served by our Flint churches. The work is ongo-ing, and are grateful for your prayers and your gifts.

Bonnie Potter, and our Board of Laity continue to offer fresh opportunities for equippingthe laity through Tools for Ministry, Lay Servant Training, and specialized events to en-courage and empower local church leaders. We look forward to “A bead and a Prayer”workshop to be led by Rev. Karen Williams in September. Brian Kelley, Youth Directorfor Swartz Creek UMC has been standing in the gap to coordinate the district youth ac-tivities, including UNITE (our winter youth lock-in), a weekend event for both beginningand advanced Lay Servants, and a skate-a-thon to raise funds for the Flint water crisis. We continue to “Take it To the Streets!” 2016 will be our fourth year as we expand oururban ministry focus to include the rural Owosso area as we spread out in service toour communities on this mission immersion day. Folks will have the opportunity to bepart of a food distribution, to plant or tend community gardens, to place benches, totackle blight, to visit nursing homes, or to help with minor repair work, among otherthings. They might want to join the prayer team for on-sight prayer walks, or to coverthe event in prayer from wherever they are. In order to emphasize the connection ofchurches in the Crossroads District.

Our discipleship ministries team offered a Life in the Spirit seminar hosted by FlushingUMC working through Aldersgate Ministries. Leaders continue to be developed throughLay Servant training offered in the spring and the fall. Rev. Dr. Tara Sutton, our districtsuperintendent continued to challenge local churches to expand or develop signatureministries. The leadership team sponsored three packing days with Kids Against Hungerto help provide nutritious meals for emergency situations in country and around theworld.

We continue to pray for Dr. Sutton who requested medical leave in the spring of 2016.In her absence, we have continued to draw on that transformed network of connectedspiritual leadership in our churches as serve, celebrate, and seek to fully reflect theKingdom of God. We continue to benefit from the service of Cheryl Rentschler, our ded-icated and caring Administrative Assistant who has gone above and beyond in shep-herding the people of our district. We thank God for the kind support provided to allpersons who seek information or answers through our conference and district staff, bothpaid and volunteer. I thank my God every time I remember you!

It is truly a blessing to see individuals who make up this body of Christ exercising theirgifts with grace to the glory of God. May we be attentive to the Spirit of the Lord who

leads us and illumines our understanding. May we make the most of every opportunityas we spread everywhere the fragrance of Christ (2 Cor 2:15).

Grace and Peace to you, Rev. LuAnn Rourke, ChairpersonCrossroads District Leadership TeamFlint, Michigan

MARQUETTE DISTRICT

The Marquette District continues to celebrate mission and ministry as we seek newways of being the church in our area! The highlights of 2015 include:

Annual District Learning Fair was held in September at the Ore Dock Brewery in Mar-quette. “A brewery,” you might ask? Yes, a brewery! Our guest for the day was the Rev.Jerry Herships, pastor at AfterHours Denver. Jerry gave us some insight into the ministryof AfterHours and challenged the pastors and laity of our district to imagine what min-istries our churches might initiate in order to be the church in our part of the world. To-gether we made sack lunches for various missional agencies in Marquette, anddialogued with each other about possibilities for new ministries.

God’s Country Cooperative Parrish continues to serve the people and their needswithin their 2500 square mile area. Church and Community Worker Randy Hildebrantand his team converted a trailer into a mobile distribution vehicle for warm clothing give-aways. This eliminates much of the set up and take down time so the team can focusmore of their attention on the people they are serving. With the help of several VIMteams, many improvement projects were completed in the community. A new ministryfor teens, Breakfast with a Purpose, was initiated this year with excellent results! HighSchool students are invited once a month to enjoy a delicious and hearty breakfast be-fore school begins. The ministry began at Newberry Schools and is now happening atEngadine Schools as well.

Camp Michigamme is moving in a positive direction under the leadership of ExecutiveDirector Renée Deroche, and the Board of Trustees. 361 campers enjoyed camp duringthe summer. A new session called Harmony Retreat was added to the schedule andwas a success! Improvements are being made to Grace Hall and Hampton Chapel, aswell as other areas on the grounds. The Board continues to plan for the future of CampMichigamme.

Lay Servant Ministries, under the leadership of Sandy and Bob Hampton, continue tocall forth new servants and expand the skills of those who already serve. Several peopletook advantage of Basic and Advanced Lay speaking courses offered across the district.Participants logged a combined total of 9002 miles on their quest for the training anddevelopment that will enhance their ability to serve God!

District Superintendent Elbert Dulworth went on a renewal leave in the summer andundertook the challenge of traveling, on foot, the Camino de Santiago in Spain. Wewere blessed as he shared his adventures and insights with our congregations duringour charge conferences.

The people of the Marquette District of the United Methodist Church look forward tocontinuing our faithfulness to God as we seek new ways of making disciples of JesusChrist for the transformation of the world!

SAGINAW BAY DISTRICT

The Saginaw Bay Council on Ministries coordinates the many, and frequently overlap-ping programs of the district. The DCOM initiated meetings that were conducted at clus-ter levels to better communicate all District assets available to them; and encourageclusters to work together on mission projects. One cluster project resulted in the forma-tion of a non-profit organization that raised more than $8,000 for two charitable organ-izations in Saginaw.

Lay Servant Ministries – The board had many changes in 2015. Changes have beenmade in the offering of courses, using a two Saturday format for adult courses. Theywill be offered twice a year, at two different locations. The youth weekend will be thesecond weekend of April each year. The winter/spring 2015 courses offered were basicand the advanced course Leading Worship. More than 15 participants enrolled. In April,a youth lay servant retreat was held at Pinconning UMC. The youth experienced TheLord's Supper in many different ways, including a love feast sitting on the floor aroundtables in the sanctuary. The adult fall course, ‘Let the Whole Church Say Amen ‘(prayer)was attended by 17 students in two locations.

We also focused on improving communication. Newsletters & personal letters to clergywill be informative and encourage people to participate. We plan to add a Lay ServantMinistries tab to the Saginaw Bay District website, and are taking steps to add a LayServant Ministries tab to the new conference website. —Lay Servant Ministry Director, Joan Morrow

Youth Ministries – Our teams have partnered together for our 2 big events this pastyear. We worshipped, ate, and tail gated before the district Loon's game this sum-mer. We brought in the rock wall from "The Rock" youth center in Midland. This pastJanuary we had our best "Snow Kidding" event in years! Over 80 people gathered atOscoda UMC from around the district to worship, laugh, eat and play! We welcomedRod Snow, a local ventriloquist and chalk arts for our worship leader for the day.—Youth Chairperson, Cathy Christman

2015 Keeping it Safe Trainings – Reducing the Risk of Physical Injury, Sexual andPhysical AbuseSince compliance to create a policy is nearly complete, most churches have moved be-yond creating their new policy to implementing and maintaining their safe sanctuary pol-icy. It is imperative we stay vigilant to provide safe, loving facilities to all in our care. —Ministry and Education Facilitator, Melene Wilsey

TO GO Ministries –Now in our 11th year, the Visual Resource and Prop Center, is thehome of the To Go Ministries. The first To Go Ministry was Vacation Bible School. Theconcept was simple. A warehouse of quality visual resources (a variety of themed props,backdrops, puppets, curriculum for V.B.S., etc) would be utilized by churches throughoutour District by offering extra support to their leaders, while saving the church time andmoney. This concept continues to be embraced with the expansion of the To Go Min-istries that include, the Game Show To Go and Worship Arts To Go.—Ministry and Education Facilitator, Melene Wilsey

TASC (Training and Supporting Congregations) provides training (methods) and op-portunities, which are timely, relevant, innovative, out of the box, and immediately ap-plicable.

Featured speaker for our annual spring event as Lance Ford. He very passionatelywalked us through how to resource and equip not only ourselves but also each of ourchurches to develop missional lifestyles. Our day concluded with a Mission Brainstorm-ing session complete with an ice cream social. The Clusters worked together as a teamto discuss what they were currently doing and looked forward to additional possibilitiesfor mission work both within and beyond their clusters. The winning cluster would receive$500 and be awarded a traveling trophy to be placed at each of their churches through-out the following year. These prizes were awarded at the District Conference.

TASC is also TASC To Go. We produce, schedule and publicize training events for allperson in, or exploring leadership roles in their congregations. Churches select the date,and the training topic. They select from our menu of 17 topics. TASC To Go providesthe leader for each topic. Each event day is a 3 hour fellowship, learning and interactivetime. Learn more about TASC on our web page at saginawbaydistrict.com or check outour video: written, produced, and starring members of the TASC Force. You can findthe video on UTube.—T.A.S.C.

CONFERENCE LEADERSHIP TEAM – PERSONNEL COMMITTEE

During 2015 the Detroit Annual Conference Leadership Team Personnel Committee as-sisted in the development of the Michigan Area Covenant of Sexual Ethics Policy thatwas presented and approved at the May, 2015 DAC Annual Conference.

Each Personnel Committee member serves as a liaison to either a program director orsupport staff member and is available to that person for discussion regarding work re-lated matters. We met with our program directors and support staff members in Sep-tember of 2015. This annual review allows our Personnel Committee to give constructiveand supportive feedback to the Director of Connectional Ministries, the Rev. Dr. JeromeDeVine.

The Personnel Committee remains deeply grateful for the many gifts and graces thateach staff member brings to strengthen the ministries of the conference and localchurches.

The highly regarded, Rev. Dr. James Parkhurst - Director of Outdoor and Retreat Min-istries, accepted a position in the Oregon-Idaho Conference. This was an opportunitythat has always been his “dream job.” Because his time with the DAC was extremelyfruitful we said, “farewell” during March, 2015 with mixed emotions.

We are grateful to Rev. Thomas Macaulay for his willingness to temporarily fill this po-sition until the approved 2015 resolution submitted to the DAC and WMC to create aMichigan Area Board to Oversee United Methodist Camp and Ministries was imple-mented. The implementation was finalized during the 4th quarter of 2015.

At the request of the DAC Director of Connectional Ministries and with the collaborationof his WMC counterpart, there has been a realignment of responsibilities for some pro-gram director positions and support staff positions. The changes will allow these personsto work in the areas of their specialty throughout the entire Michigan Area. The Directorof New Church Development – Dirk Elliot, the Director of Congregational Excellence –Gary Step and the Associate Director for Discipleship – Naomi Garcia.

As the DAC and WMC work toward becoming a single conference, we make every at-tempt to evaluate the eventual impact of staff changes on the Michigan area. In allcases, we consider efficiency, effectiveness and if the changes are equitable. We arefocused on continuing to staff our annual conference in such a way as to help us moreeffectively live out our mission statement “to create and nurture dynamic and fruitfulcongregations who make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.”

The DAC and WMC Personnel Committees have begun joint meetings and arepresently reviewing and developing a review of Program Staff and Support Staff Guide-lines and Procedures.

DIRECTOR OF CONNECTIONAL MINISTRIES, Rev. Dr. Jerome R. DeVine

Jesus said to them, “Let us cross over to the other side of the lake.” So they left thecrowd and took him with them in the boat where he had been sitting; and there wereother boats accompanying him.” Mark 4:35-36, NEB

Ministry is almost always better as a collaborative initiative and effort. We often missthe notation in the Gospel of Mark story where it says “there were other boats accom-panying him.” To move to a new arena for ministry requires a flexible flotilla of leaders,agencies and ideas to help bring the healing presence of Jesus Christ to the world. Thework of the Detroit Conference Leadership Team [CLT] and the Director of ConnectionalMinistries [DCM] is such a collaboration. Both hold a responsibility for stewarding thevision of the annual conference and aligning the resources around the vision. One doesso as a semi-governance body, the other as the primary staff person with oversight ofthe vision and implementation.

On June 10, 2015 we all learned that the overwhelmingly vision of the two annual con-ferences in the Michigan Area was to become one body in ministry. Much of this yearhas now been given to helping create multiple areas of new program collaboration, while

181

strengthening existing shared work and caring for the individual responsibilities of theDAC. We have begun joint CLT meetings with the West Michigan CLT. As we make de-cisions on budget, staffing, organization and goals we do so with the awareness thatwith our WMC counterparts in ministry we are moving away from a familiar shorelinewith a vision of a new shoreline of vitality. The boats are all on the water and movingforward!

During this past year we supported the motion of creating one new board for camp andretreat ministries across Michigan, and the motion to create a new area annual confer-ence. We continued strong support of the Vital Church Initiative, new church starts, ex-panded intern experiences for college age young adults, a transformed approach tonetworking youth and workers with youth across the DAC, and even reaching out toyouth workers in the WMC. We have continued supporting the strengthening of racialethnic ministry leadership and cross-cultural competency training for all leaders, as wellas training local church lay and clergy for growth strategies and practices. The DAC isproud of our long term relationship with the US-2, Church and Community Worker andNational Hispanic Plan missionary placements within our conference. With gifted anddedicated staff, key partnerships and an adaptive leadership approach we continue torespond to emergent needs within Michigan, whether it be the ongoing need for floodrecovery or the more recent water crisis.

Our budget shows our realignment around the three Vision Pathways, while recognizingthe need to contain expenses in partnership with our local churches. Together we willcreate and nurture dynamic and fruitful congregations that make disciples of JesusChrist for the transformation of the world. As details for a new annual conference emergewe will faithfully and collaboratively build a new tomorrow with all United Methodistsacross Michigan.

In Christ’s service,Rev. Amy Mayo-Moyle Rev. Dr. Jerome (Jerry) DeVine

UNITED METHODIST MENTo Help Men Grow in Christ,

So That Others may Know Christ.

Men need a purpose! What better purpose than the one stated above – the purpose ofthe United Methodist Men. Meet and eat seems to me a UMM tradition, but so is study-ing the Bible, working to help others everywhere, supporting the local church and pastor,and connecting with other UMM. The problem is that not all churches have a charteredUMM group. Why not? With the charter comes a connection to the largest best organ-ized men’s ministry in the country providing training, a supportive organization from dis-trict to conference to jurisdiction to national, and links to affiliations with over 15 othernational organizations.

Let’s take a look at what we did (and what you missed) in 2015. Meetings were held indistricts that included speakers like Frank Turner (TV personality), District Superintend-ents, Religious singing groups, representatives from JFON (Justice for our Neighbors),UM Children’s Home Society, CONAM (Committee on Native American Ministries),Samaritan Counseling Centers, Man in the Mirror, and United Methodist Missionaries.Other speakers discussed domestic violence, immigration issues, life in Palestine/Israel,

and youth and young adult programs. Besides the meetings there was action. Makingof PET vehicles – Personal Energy Transportation, working on Flood Recovery Projectin Detroit, unloading and delivering water in Flint, refurbishing the Saganing Indian Cul-tural Center, and making bus stop benches in East Detroit.

As President, I have been part of the Board of Laity. I have received a series of ques-tions from the New Conference Design Team relating to how the UMM will complementto Conference. Since they suggested that these questions be answered jointly with theWest Michigan UMM President, I found out that there is no UMM President in WM Con-ference. I have located a District President in WM and will be working with him and thedistrict presidents of Detroit Conference to answer the questions.

UNITED METHODIST WOMEN

Our 2015 activities began with a United Methodist Women Detroit Conference teambuilding retreat / business meeting at the Birch Run Comfort Inn. This was a wonderfulexperience and gave the team the opportunity to meet me, as the new UMW DetroitConference president, and gave me the opportunity to meet a great group of hard work-ing ladies, all sharing the same goals as we work in “mission”.

The United Methodist Women, Inc. presented the 2015 Voices: A Transformative Lead-ership event that was scheduled for the weekend of February 27 – March 1, 2015, andlocated at Scarritt-Bennett Center in Nashville, TN. The purpose of this event was toaddress the needs and resources needed to strengthen the mission with our sisterswhose preferred or primary language is other than English. Another opportunity to in-teract with the national office of the United Methodist Women was a conference call withHarriett Olson, chief executive officer, and other conference presidents throughout theU.S. Much of the conversation was an open discussion around the younger ladies andthe “Limitless Program”.

The 1st Annual UNITED METHODIST WOMEN DAY OF GIVING to the Legacy Fundwas introduced on March 22, 2015. This was an initiative and fundraiser that was cre-ated as part of a five-year 150th anniversary celebration of the United Methodist Women.The Legacy Fund is a permanent endowment to support the work of future generationsof United Methodist Women.

The UMW Detroit Conference celebrated many new activities that involved young ladies.

• Flushing UMW provided pictures of their young women’s group• We had young people at the one day Mission u event at Lake Huron in August• St. Matthews UMW in Livonia, MI proudly shared that their young ladies group

actually conducts their meetings online• Scott Memorial’s UMW young ladies group coordinated and facilitated their

annual Prayer Breakfast event• The Blue Water District UMW have decided to take their meetings on the road

and conduct business at various venues throughout the city (for example: themuseum, the Star Bucks, at the library and in the park).

184


These are exciting times and a great way to learn new ideas of how to work in missionin a new way. The young ladies throughout the UMW Detroit Conference are truly usingthe term “Make It Happen!” and have made it a reality.

The United Methodist Women in the Detroit Conference and West MI Conference metand formed a team to work on a team building and future property owner relationshipof the United Methodist Community House, Inc. (UMCH) in Grand Rapids. This historicbuilding is a national mission institution of the United Methodist Women.

There is a team of 8 members (4 members from each conference) that are working tounderstand what it means to be the property owners, how to achieve the and maintainthe repairs and general upkeep of the structure of the UMCH, which includes providingand raising the needed funding for that maintenance, and shaping what it will look liketo have the Detroit Conference UMW become more involved in the various programsof the UMCH.

Mission u events in 2015 were: a one-day session July 18 at Milan: Marble MemorialUnited Methodist Church; a Mission u Sampler August 13 at the Lake Huron RetreatCenter (LHRC); Hands On Mission Experience (H.O.M.E.) August 13 in the Port Huronarea; a two-day Mission u by the Lake August 14-15 also held at the LHRC (with a con-current children’s study at no charge); and Mission u of the North October 19-20, atGaylord UMC. Mission u topics were: Spiritual Growth study - Created for Happiness,a second year of The Church and People with Disabilities, and the Geographic study -Latin America. Our study leaders were Rev. Beth Librande, Mary McCully, Sonya Luna,Rev. Dr. Joseph A. Perez and Joanne Perez.

The 2015 National Seminar was held in Chicago, IL from July 29, 2015 through August2, 2015. The theme of the Seminar was “Interrupting Indifference: Jesus, Justice, Joy”.The topics/issues for the Seminar were: Climate Justice, Maternal and Child Heath,Racial and Gender Justice, and Economic Justice. The scripture study for the 5 daysthat we spent together came from Luke 19:1-28.

This was an opportunity to meet a great group of leaders from the UMW, Inc., andwomen across the national map. We took part in a town meeting (public action) thatwas held at Hartzell Memorial UMC on Chicago’s south side. The host churches wereHartzell UMC and St. James UMC. This was a collaboration of community leaders andothers called the “Community Renewal Society”. Their purpose was: To gain commit-ments from the Southside leaders (Alderman and Commissioners on their “Reclaim”campaign) and Chicago Police Accountability Platform. There were three site visits:Little Village Toxic Tour, ARISE Chicago/ROC Chicago/Coalition of Chicago Housekeep-ers, and Gallery 400 (University of Illinois of Chicago Museum). There were also 7 skill-building workshops.

Prior to district officer specific training Friday, October 23, at Ferndale: First UMC,Jeanne Long, Be Just Be Green (BJBG) Guide for the North Central Jurisdiction, pro-vided a presentation on “Be Just Be Green”. Jeanne focused on the environment andthe13 principles of BJBG, the “How Tos” and “Resources”.

STANDING RULES COMMITTEE

The Committee on Standing Rules believes it assists conference agencies to make dis-ciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world by ordering the life of the annualconference for effective ministry through its continued work of perfecting the conferencerules and structure.

COUNCIL ON FINANCE AND ADMINISTRATION PRESIDENT’S REPORT

2015 was another great year in Michigan. Economic growth and job recovery continuesto impact, not only the business community, but families and churches. CFA was pleasedby apportionment receipts of 80.8% that marked the first increase in giving that we haveexperienced since 2012.

CFA appreciates how hard each congregation worked in 2015 to pay their apportion-ments. 282 churches of every size – approximately 66.19% of the 426 congregationsin our Annual Conference – paid 100% of their apportionment contribution. Many othercongregations endeavored to pay at least something beyond their pension apportion-ments. 27 congregations made no payment toward their common budget apportion-ments in 2015.

As we consider our financial commitment to the general church, an additional amountof $76,673.94 was added to the Episcopal Fund to bring the total to 100%. All othergeneral church apportionments were paid at 76.98% the actual level of receipts.

Encouraging churches to meet their apportionments has always been a challenge forCFA. Through the years, numerous strategies have been employed, but none weremore effective than the 2015 Apportionment Project led by Rev. Jeff Reagan. Originally,14 churches were identified as possible participants by their district superintendents.Jeff contacted six churches and their pastors, inviting them to be a part of the project.Each church was assigned a reduced apportionment amount, approximately 10% morethan they contributed in 2014. They were also asked to seek approval and assistancefrom their governing board, Church Council or Finance Committee. Five of thesechurches made their goal for 2015 and are considered 100% apportionment support-ers.

In the midst of this process, CFA learned:

1. Pastoral leadership is very important to setting the priority for connecting in missionthrough our apportionment system.

2. Personal contact from a conference leader outside of their congregation is very im-portant.

3. Bringing an encouraging message and incentives with attainable goals helped tocreate a positive giving environment.

CFA is encouraged by the success of the Apportionment Project and will continue to in-vite congregations to participate.

2015 brought some changes to the Treasurer’s Office. After more than 17 years of faith-ful service, “Bulldog” Ralph Remick retired. The Detroit Annual Conference will miss hisdiligent work and his black Corvette in the parking lot. We are pleased to hire NancyWyllys to assume the responsibilities of Accounts Payable. Nancy’s warm spirit andcareful attention to detail make her a wonderful addition to our financial team.

In 2015, the Detroit and West Michigan Annual Conferences voted to merge. Each con-ference brings to the merger a unique financial approach to funding and administration.The two CFA’s are beginning to work on the various financial issues and I have beenpleased by the openness and transparency of those discussions. It is possible that wewill move to one Treasurer’s Office for the Michigan Area before the official merger datein 2019, and perhaps, implement similar operations procedures as well.

It has been a privilege to be a part of the Council on Finance and Administration for thelast 12 years. I cannot end my term without expressing my appreciation for the talentedcommitted people who provide extraordinary leadership for our annual conference aspart of CFA. We are also blessed to have David Dobbs, Becky Emmert and NancyWyllys leading our professional financial team. I leave grateful that we are in a strongfinancial position and appreciative of the faithfulness and support of the churches ofThe Detroit Annual Conference. May God continue to bless you.

BOARD OF ORDAINED MINISTRY

So the West Michigan and Detroit Conferences have decided to become one new Con-ference. Conference Boards and Agencies across the state are talking with each other,meeting with each other, and exploring what it means to experience a shared existence.The two Boards of Ordained Ministries have sent representatives to each other’s re-treats. Our Executive Committees have met to discuss how the “two shall become one.”

We have been sharing how each other has accomplished their responsibilities in certainways, and how we can wed those efforts into the new marriage. One focus questionexample would be: “How do we combine two boards with forty-two members each, intoone board with forty-two members?” It is a good question – a practical question – butthese housekeeping questions should not be the only questions. Thankfully, our con-

187

188


versations have been about more than logistics. I have really appreciated the leadershipof Sherri Swanson, Chair of the West Michigan Board of Ordained Ministry.

Last fall, the DAC BOM dedicated a day to hear the Rev. Dr. Lovett Weems, distin-guished professor of church leadership and director of the Lewis Center for ChurchLeadership at Wesley Theological Seminary. He led us into looking at the bigger pictureof the role of the Board of Ordained Ministry. He challenged us with the vision: “TheBoard of Ordained Ministry does it work so that the Conference receives clergyleaders that create and nurture dynamic, vital and fruitful congregations thatmake disciples who transform the world.” This is a slightly bigger vision than thecombining the pieces of two annual conferences.

As we peek into the future we know that there will be fewer churches and fewer pastoralcharges in the State of Michigan. There will be a smaller percentage of churches servedby full-time pastors. There will be fewer churches served by ordained Elders. There willbe fewer churches averaging one hundred or more in worship. There will be fewerchurches able to afford an ordained elder, or a full-time pastor. There will be a biggerdemand for Local Pastors.

We need to put in place the essential elements for leadership growth (challenge, supportand accountability), as we seek to provide nurturing mentoring, supportive covenantgroups, challenging continuing educational opportunities and supervisory accountabilitybetween peers. Realistically, this needs to be accomplished for both the candidates whoare preparing for ministry, as well as those currently in ministry.

With my retirement I am stepping down as the Chair of the BOM. Laura Speiran will bethe new Chairperson. It has been my privilege to have served on the BOM twice duringthe ministry. I have the highest respect for the men and women, clergy and laity, whohave been willing to hold the decision of a candidate’s acceptance in the palm of theirhand. It is not an easy task.

I also want to highly thank David Eardley for his service and incredible competence asour Registrar. He is amazing. Tim Ziegler will be our new Registrar. My appreciationalso goes out to the other members of the Executive Committee (Doug Paterson, JanBrown, Pam Buchholz, Joy Barrett, Billie Lou Gillespie, Scott Harmon, Sue Platt, MaryMcInnes, Carole Wesner and Mark Spaw), as well as to the entire Board of OrdainedMinistry. And, of course, my gratitude goes to Nancy Arnold, who is the master of effec-tiveness and collegiality always!

CONFERENCE BOARD OF PENSION AND HEALTH BENEFITS

I. Pension Apportionments & Health Insurance

2015 was a very respectable year for Detroit Conference benefits. 395 of our 424 localchurches (93.2%) remitted their pension apportionments at 100%. Although there were6 churches at the opposite end of the spectrum (0%), both totals moved in a positive di-rection compared to 2014. Even more significant was the conference-wide unpaid pen-sion apportionments total of $36,878, the lowest uncollected dollar amount in manyyears. An additional $79,664 was received for prior year balances which greatly assistedin containing and lowering the cumulative total for all prior years.

While the high cost of health care continues to be a national concern, the CBOPHBreaffirms its commitment to providing a comprehensive, sustainable group health careplan for both actives and retirees. 2016 marks the third year in a row without an increasein health insurance premiums. Local churches with subscribers in the conference healthcare plan, overall are doing very well staying current with the monthly premium pay-ments. The CBOPHB is grateful to all local churches for their continued support in ourshared ministries.

As required, permanent records of outstanding balances for both pension apportion-ments and health insurance balances are kept on file by the CBOPHB with the intentionto recover the balances. If left unaddressed, these balances must become part of a localchurch’s financial plan when a local church considers building expansion, merger, orclosure. Please contact the Conference Benefits Officer, Rev. Donald Emmert, for furtherdetails or to discuss payment options for prior year pension and health insurance bal-ances.

BOARD OF TRUSTEES

Since the last session of the Annual Conference, the board has held two meetings witha third scheduled for the spring of 2016.

Our officers are: Rev. Brent Webster, chairperson; Mr. Rob Long, vice-chairperson; Rev.Faith Timmons, secretary. We have eight other hard-working board members as wellas three conference staff members to help us with our work.

In October we held a risk management meeting with Church Mutual Insurance Com-pany. This meeting helps us identify areas where churches may reduce their potentialfor losses.

At the current time the board has title to three former United Methodist Churches thathave been declared closed/abandoned. Title to two of these churches will soon be trans-ferred to enable new ministries to serve the surrounding neighbors. The third propertyis one for which we may have a buyer. This third property was one that we had to gothrough the long legal process of quieting the title. Fortunately, we knew who the familywas, and they were not interested in reclaiming the property. We thank them for theirgenerosity.


203

We have sold the former Iron River Wesley parsonage and church building.

By the end of February we should have closed on the former Amen Korean property.

We have continued to have meetings with the West Michigan board of trustees to dis-cover how each board functions, especially with the sale of closed/abandoned property,and what adjustments will need to be made so that when the new conference form isestablished, we are ready to serve. The two boards have also been meeting togetherto discuss the legal documents that will be needed in order for the new board of trusteesto function.

As we go forward toward annual conference tim, we will be having our conference-owned parsonages inspected and begin addressing any new maintenance issues.

BOARD OF JUSTICE, ADVOCACY AND EQUITY

The Board of Justice, Advocacy and Equity (BJAE) is the the result of the Conferencerestructuring process initiated by the Conference Leadership Team and approved bythe 2014 Annual Conference. The Board of Church and Society, the Commission onthe Status and Role of Women, and the Committee on Disability Concerns have suc-cessfully united into this one new board.

Our propose is to be an advocate for social justice within the Detroit Annual Conferenceworking tirelessly for the full inclusion of all people without regard to race, sex, prefer-ence, age, economic status, or disability, giving witness to the love of God in Christ inall creation. We will accomplish this by calling attention to issues within the church andcommunity, providing workshops trainings, and resources to the conference, districts,and congregations, and funding for projects throughout the conference.

Our officers are:Chairperson: Rev. George Covintree Staff Liaison: Rev. Paul Perez Church and Society Liaison: Rev. Eric Stone COSROW Liaison: Rev. Kristi Hintz Disability Concerns Liaison: James Walker Peace w/Justice Coordinator: George Jonte-CraneGeneral Board of Church and Society (GBCS): Rev. Saul Trinidad

At Annual Conference last year, we sponsoring a panel on mental health issues withCommunity Mental Health and the Samaritan Counseling Center. Our panelist includedColeen Wilsdon, Robert Martin. The Rev. Faith Fowler and the Rev. Jackie Rowe. PaulPerez served as the moderator. We provided resources, educational materials, mentalhealth first-aid training information at that session for the local congregations.

204


We will continue to seek out tools and resources to equip congregations to be morewelcoming to families who have a family member who is physically or mentally dis-abled.

And again, this year at Annual Conference, we will be sponsoring a workshop on thePrison Ministry. Our goal is to encourage greater participation by our districts and con-gregations in prison ministries. We will be providing information and "how to's on prisonministry, family supportive ministries, and prison reform.

This past year the Board of Justice, Advocacy, and Equity funded the Bridges Out ofPoverty Retreat, the Truth and Reconciliation Project of the Michigan Area of the UnitedMethodist Church, the Children's Defense Fund Program at Second Grace UnitedMethodist Church in Detroit, the Redford One Project of Redford Aldersgate UnitedMethodist Church in Redford, and the Michigan Area’s Keep Making Peace conference(this year’s theme was Mass Incarceration: locked in, locked up, locked out). We con-tinue to support Justice for Our Neighbors (JFON) and the Wesley Foundation"sUN/Washington Seminar.

We were pleased to present the Harold Stanton Peace With Justice Award for 2015 tothe Rev. Dr. Chris Momany, chaplain and director of church relations at Adrian Collegefor his outstanding contributions in the fight against human trafficking. Today it is esti-mated some 27 million people are held as slaves throughout the world. Chris is recog-nized as a national leader within the college and church arena on this issue.

Poverty and racism continue to be on-going concerns of the Board. In early October,BJAE called together a meeting of Flint area UM leaders that helped to catalyze a co-ordinated response to the Flint Water Crisis and the distribution of fitters and bottledwater by the Crossroads District. We continue to work with the Flint UM churches, theirUrban Task Force and the UMCOR/Crossroads District Emergency Water Crisis Coor-dinator, Peter Plum.

Our long term focus has put an emphasis on education, hospitality, and advocacy. Wewill work with the conference and our local congregations to develop models of careand compassion to all people regardless of theological or ethical stances which woulddivide us on issues such as sexual orientation, race, or status.

On a final note, we have begun meeting with the West Michigan Board of Church andSociety. We have much in common. As such, we decided to bring the conference res-olutions from both our boards and present them to this Annual Conference as our sharedconcerns. We feel good about this ongoing partnership and union with our brothers andsisters on the West side of the State. Together we will focus on the issue of poverty,jobs, and and economic justice, and the environment. There is an energetic spirit ofunity and vitality afoot here. Together we will continue to 'speak up for the people whohave no voice, for the rights of all the down- and-outers. Speak out for justice! Stand upfor the poor and destitute!" (Prov. 31:9, The Message)

The Rev. George Covintree, Chairperson,on behalf of the Board of Justice, Advocacy, and Equity(the Justice League)

REPORT OF THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTORTO THE UNITED METHODIST UNION OF GREATER DETROIT

Life is full of adventures, surprises and transitionsthat lead to all kinds of changes. We say to eachother often that change is inevitable! I love thatphrase when I am holding my new Apple iPhoneor driving a turbo charged automobile. But I am notso sure about it when I look in the mirror in themorning and wonder who I am looking at? How doyou look in the mirror in the morning? Do you knowanyone who looks the same as they did ten yearsago? As a 68 year old woman standing in front ofthe mirror, I often find myself thinking; “God reallydoes have a sense of humor.” Fortunately we,United Methodists are creatures of hope and pos-sibility.

I am not sure that I was feeling much hope andpossibility on that day in Egypt when I climbed onto a camel. I didn’t want any of my fel-low travelers to see how nervous I was. So, I just stepped forward and got on. Holdingmy breath as the camel stood up, I said to myself, “Lord, help me to hang on .… andnext time, could we try one of those horses instead?” The motion of the camel at firstseemed a bit awkward. The saddle was uncomfortable. I have never had a Lawrenceof Arabia fantasy. But early that morning, running across the desert on a camel, sur-prisingly made my heart soar and provided a whole new glimpse of life in what seemedat first glance, a barren place. Who would have thought that before the ride ended, Iwould be laughing, comfortable, and actually enjoying the view from the back of a camel!

Adventures, surprises and transitions often lead to change. Whenever I see this photoof me on a camel, I am reminded how our perspective is altered as we step out on faith,where we did not ever intend to go. It makes me think of something Bishop CharleneKammerer, one of my seminary colleagues said long ago:

The sign of God is that we will be led where we did not plan to go.

You’ll find that phrase on a needlepoint in my office at the Union. That truth has servedme well through the years, and I am sure it will be part of my journey now as the Exec-utive Director of the United Methodist Union. I never envisioned that the transition wefondly call “retirement” would include for me a season at the Union. But here I am, sittingat, what I call affectionately, Dr. Bill Ritter’s desk, learning what it means to share in theministry that God has entrusted to the Union. As I contemplate what that ministry mightlook like in the future, three short phrases continue to resonate with me.

1. Connected to the Past

The Union trustees meet in the parlor of Metropolitan United Methodist Church. It isconveniently located right across from our office. On every wall in the parlor are portraitsof the pastors who served that congregation for over 100 years. The fireplaces at each

206


end of the room are anchored by pictures of those two great men of faith and vision,Merton Rice and Charles Allen, who built that magnificent church and had a legendaryministry in the city from 1903 to 1952.

Looking at those pictures, I am reminded that though I am not a member of MetropolitanUMC, I am connected to their past and to the past of all the churches and people whohave been a part of the Detroit Metropolitan Area. We are connected together; as theBible describes it, to that great cloud of witnesses who have gone before us, not onlyblazing a trail, but providing some of the resources we invest in mission and ministryinitiatives and all kinds of church extension projects. Their witness, leadership and faith-fulness encourages and inspires us to provide faithful ministry too. I am also gratefulfor all the Executive Directors of the Union, especially Rev. Dr. Bill Ritter who cast a vi-sion of transformational ministry that will shape the direction of the Union for years.

2. Creating the Future Together

A book that I have read more than once is Thomas Friedman’s The World is Flat. Hewrites of a world brought together through technology and asks some profound ques-tions about the future as our world continues to change. One has only to look acrossthe religious landscape to catch a glimpse of all the changes happening to UnitedMethodist Churches in our District. What will our future look like?

No one truthfully knows the answer to that question. But the United Methodist Union re-mains committed to working together with churches to create a future of hope and pos-sibilities. We take the apportionment dollars we receive from our District churches andreinvest them in mission and ministry that continue to make a difference. It is our goalto strengthen and revitalize United Methodist congregations and missions to serve theircommunities. In that service, in that ministry, we will find our future, together.

3. Leaving a Legacy

Last Sunday morning, I stood in the kitchen and discussed the possibility of creating acharitable foundation with my brother-in-law, Bill Blakemore. He is considering settingaside some of his assets to support missional endeavors that are important to him andmy sister, Shirley. Bill wants to leave a legacy. Most people do in one way or another.Everyone wants to be significant. Churches do, too …. but the legacy they are seekingis a bit different.

A church finds its legacy not in a magnificent building, but in the hearts and minds ofpeople of faith. The Union wants to join them in that legacy as we help congregationscare for the business responsibilities of church extension and the missional opportunitiesthat transformational grants provide. We seek to support churches as they strive in theirown unique way to be vital congregations that make disciples of Jesus Christ for thetransformation of the world. What a wonderful legacy that would be!

These three phrases continue to resurface as my knowledge and vision of the ministryof the Union continues to grow. I am grateful for the kindness and support of ConniePerrine, Audrey Mangum, our professional consultants as well as our officers and Boardmembers as they seek to answer my one-thousand-and-one questions. Being the Ex-


207

ecutive Director of the United Methodist Union is a journey of faith. Fortunately, Godgoes with us.

Blessings & Joy,Rev. Carol J. Johns, Executive Director

REPORT OF THE EXECUTIVE DIRECTOR (RETIRED) TO THE UNITED METHODIST UNION OF GREATER DETROIT

Yet One More Time Around the Block

I was rather surprised to learn I was expected to write a portion of this year’s annual re-port. I thought I had laid that responsibility aside last October with the announcementof my impending retirement. But it was correctly (and kindly) pointed out to me that ofthe 52 weeks between October 2014 and October of 2015, I had served all but 9 ofthem at the helm of the Union. So I am happy to add my last word to Carol’s first words,even as I join you in anticipating her leadership in the months and years to come. Rev.Carol Johns was the right choice at the right time. No, let me say it more strongly, CarolJohns was the obvious choice, the perfect choice, and, quite possibly, the only choicefor this job. My last remaining task is to make sure the baton is well-passed.

I have decided to limit my remarks to a detailed summary of two major Board of Trusteedecisions. Both were made in the seven months preceding my retirement. Both offeredgreat challenges. Both required much research. Both entailed some risk. Both askedmore of the Union than had any other proposals in my memory. And both discussionsreflected my philosophy about who we are and what we need to be about.

I could also reprise the long list of “thank-you’s” with which I traditionally conclude thisreport. But there is no way I could do it with the same feeling I did in my retirement re-marks, which can be read on-line at www.umunion.org Now, it’s time for the body of thisnarrative.

The Story That Dwarfed Every Other Story

This year’s primary challenge involved the decision to underwrite the monthly mortgagepayments of Southfield: Hope United Methodist Church to its principal lender. Theamount owed was in excess of 4.2 million dollars. Monthly payments were $31,296.Earlier attempts to renegotiate terms of the loan were successful only to the degree oflowering summer payments to interest only. The burden of the church’s debt had be-come unmanageable. Many Detroit area United Methodists know pieces of the backstory. Few, if any, know them all. I will surface only those which make the Union’s deci-sion understandable.

208


Southfield: Hope (as it was then constituted) had known only one pastor in its history.That pastor took a small building on Civic Center Drive, viewed it as a new-church start,built a new congregation while delivering short-term ministry to the remnant member-ship, and then purchased the former North Congregational Church building on North-western Highway. After serving for 31 years, he was the only pastor any current memberat Hope had ever known. His preaching was exceptional. His personality was engaging.And his approach to “doing church” was inviting. The membership swelled and, as lateas 2013, the church claimed 4,000 members. Major building programs up-sized thebuilding and major staffing additions up-sized the ministry. A large number of blackpreachers currently serving in the Detroit Annual Conference were either once membersof, or employed by, Hope Church.

But cracks were becoming visible in the walls of Paradise. Questions about leadershipstyle, financial prioritization and denominational accountability became difficult to ignore.After a painstaking period of consultation, the pastor was offered a different appointment.He chose to retire instead. A new pastor was appointed, even as the previous pastorbegan preaching in a rented facility less than three miles away. Those transitions tookplace in July of 2014. Many members went elsewhere, with the majority following theprevious pastor.

The remaining membership is probably less than 800. Worship attendance on mostSundays is in the mid-300’s. The new pastor is working very hard with church leadersto right-size the budget and staff, even as he addresses issues that relate to trust andconfidence. In the initial months of his pastorate, the Union made a substantial grant tohelp underwrite mediation and consultation services offered by the Lombard-MennonitePeace Center. At its present level of giving and attendance, Hope is still the largest pre-dominantly African-American congregation of United Methodists in the State of Michi-gan. But financial realities continue to be overwhelming. Without substantive assistance,mortgage requirements would have put this congregation out of existence. But if budgetdown-sizing is not done carefully, the church’s membership will continue to erode.

Enter the Union. Beginning in October of 2014, a few of us began consulting with Hope’sleaders. Those meetings continue to this day. The January 2015 meeting of the Union’strustees wrestled with the problem. Virtually every member attended. And the decisionwas made to assume major responsibility for the church’s mortgage for a period up tothree years. Several trustees called it the most moving church meeting they had everattended. While one member, choking back tears, called it a Spirit-filled moment.

To date (October 8, 2015), the Union has spent $260,335 in this effort. At the Union’sinvitation, the Extension Fund of the Detroit Annual Conference has agreed to supportthe Union with 25% of each payment. It is further expected that the Hope congregationwill right-size its budget and begin paying 33.3% of each monthly payment beginningFebruary 1, 2016, increasing to 66.7% of each payment beginning February 1, 2017,so as to prepare the church to assume full mortgage payments on February 1, 2018.The Union wants this to work. But underscoring everything that has happened, Uniontrustees believed (and still believe) that the people of Hope deserve a chance.

On Being Pregnant With Triplets

The other major challenge of 2015 involved Canton: Friendship United MethodistChurch (on the Ann Arbor District) and their plan to launch three new congregations in


209

the next five years. The first of those congregations has been planned at the site of theformer New Hope UMC in Shelby Township, taking over an unoccupied church buildingpresently being managed by the Union. The proposal, which was discussed by ourTrustees in April of 2015 and approved in May, calls for the Union to grant (not loan, butgrant) up to $250,000 to Canton: Friendship to start three new congregations, with thefirst $100,000 earmarked for the Shelby Township launch, and $75,000 each for twoadditional congregations, once they move from the drawing board to actualization.

Canton: Friendship UMC owes its beginning to the Conference-wide “Pass It On” Cam-paign (which I co-chaired with Jay Hook in 2003-2005). In addition to major camp ren-ovations and a new Retreat Center at Lake Huron Camp, the plan was to fund six newchurches at $600,000 per start. At the end of the day, only four churches were launched,of which two remain. What is amazing is that Canton: Friendship moved between tem-porary quarters for 14 years before building its new facility on North Beck Road. Sincemoving into a permanent building, the church has thrived. More than 300 worshipersgather each Sunday and a recent addition has increased its space for ministry. The pas-tor, Rev. Mike Norton, has sold his vision for a trio of satellites to his congregation. Hehas also sold his vision to the New Church Start Committee of the Detroit Annual Con-ference and the Ann Arbor District Board of Missions and Church Extension. Both or-ganizations will partner with the Union by making financial commitments. The parentcongregation (Friendship UMC) has requested affiliation with our Union, which is per-missible for a non-Detroit Renaissance District congregation to do. And while the ShelbyTownship site is already on our district, it remains unclear where launch #2 and launch#3 will be located. But people are excited, financial feasibility has been studied, and acoach who is experienced with this kind of “planting” has been hired.

Why are we involved? First, because we have resources. Second, because we trustthe leader and his model. Third, because we hated to watch New Hope UMC go under.Fourth, because we believe Shelby Township is a “ripe” location. And fifth, because any-body familiar with the first 50 years of the Union’s history knows that long before wewere ever a loan office, we were deeply into the church planting business. Look it up.It’s part and parcel of our DNA.

One Final Word on my Way Out the Door

Anybody who has watched me tackle this job knows that bailing out terminally illchurches was never my passion. I did it when necessary, only because the thought ofpeople worshipping in January in an unheated sanctuary was something I couldn’t rec-oncile with the gospel. But what really punched my buttons and incited my passionswere programs, pastors and parishioners that offered both promise and potential. Iwanted to do something more than keep further decline at bay. And it was my great de-light (and modest surprise) to discover that Union trustees felt similarly. The other day,I clipped the following by my Presbyterian colleague, John Buchanan (whom I admiregreatly) from his editorial in the Christian Century:

“Somewhat like the Earl of Grantham in Downton Abbey, I have difficulty accepting thefact that something I love and to which I have given my life is changing right in front ofmy eyes. When I was ordained, the mainline church was a growth industry with shinynew corporate headquarters on Riverside Drive in Manhattan. New churches were beingplanted and were thriving in burgeoning suburbia. There was money to fund creativemission. Church leaders were minor celebrities. Presbyterian stated clerk Eugene Car-

210


son Blake was on the cover of Time for collaborating with Episcopal Bishop James Pikeon a bold ecumenical initiative. That era is gone now.”

I, too, watch Downton Abbey….with similar feelings about the denomination I have lovedand served for over 50 years. When I started in 1965, anything was possible. Yes, any-thing. And I have never once let any of my churches (or, in later years, any of my stu-dents) believe otherwise. The world of “possibilities” is where I put my time. It was whereI put my prayer. It was where I put my energy. And, since coming to the Union, it waswhere I put your money. Whether it has been enough, time will tell. Whether it has beennoticeable, you tell me. And whether it has been contagious, I leave in your hands. On-ward!

To God be the Glory!

SECRETARY OF GLOBAL MINISTRIES – JACQUELINE EUPER

Our Michigan area was blessed to host GBGM Missionaries, Rev. Alex and BrendaAwad, in September 2015 for almost three weeks. They began their itineration in theUpper Peninsula of Michigan, speaking in Engadine & St. Ignace UMCs. The week ofLabor Day , they were hosted by West Michigan churches: Lansing Mt. Hope UMC andspeaking engagements in the Traverse City area which included Christ & Central UMCs,a radio interview and a class at Northwestern Michigan College. The days following in-cluded Frankenmuth (2 groups), Detroit Renaissance District UMM, Petersburg, Zion,Okemos, West Deerfield, St. Clair Shores Good Shepherd, Chelsea Retirement Com-munity, Lapeer Trinity, Clarkston and Rochester St. Paul’s. It was a full and excitingschedule.

The Awads’ message of God’s work in Bethlehem is a powerful testimony to their manyyears of faithful service. They are retiring in 2016 to the state of Oregon. They will remainin our prayers, as will the ministries at Bethlehem Bible College and the Israel-Palestineconflict. New missionaries will be assigned to that area, including Kristen Brown whohas already begun work in Jerusalem.

Thank you, Detroit and West Michigan hosts, for opening your doors to the messagesof Brenda and Alex Awad and for saying “thanks” to them for their years of serving Christin Israel.

In November, I attended the Global Ministries Summit in New York City. I had the op-portunity there to serve on a panel, discussing our covenant partnerships with Haiti andLiberia. A special luncheon was held, observing the 75th anniversary of UMCOR.

Thank you for supporting our General Board of Global Ministries Missionaries, both inMichigan and in the uttermost parts of the world. They are serving Christ on our behalf.They appreciate our prayers, out gifts and our listening ears.

In preparing for our new conference, I join with others as we meet with West Michigancounterparts to ensure a smooth transition in the area of Global Ministries. God is pavingthe way. Thanks be to God!

Environmental Health & Accessibility Grants

1. The budget as listed in the Spotlight Church 2015 book for 2015 was $5,000.00 forthe Environmental Health &Accessibility Grant. Each grant is limited to $500.00 orless. In 2015, we approved three grants at $500.00 per grant.

1. Our challenge is to maintain a balance of money to cover grant applications and toadvertise the existence of the grant and the method for applying for the grant. Todate, we have not turned any grants down due to lack of money. However, we needto ensure that we have adequate funds to cover further grant applications. Thesedonations need to come from local churches in our Conference. To this end, I amworking with Cheryll Warren who is writing an article for MIConnect in which infor-mation about the grant will be available along with the need for donations from localchurches.

VOLUNTEERS IN MISSION – REV. TOM ANDERSON

In 2015, 18 churches sponsored VIM experiences in Michigan and four foreign coun-tries. Over 185 people including youth, and adults participated. Contributions to thecauses supported reached almost $139,000, plus another $6300 in-kind donations.

MICHIGAN AREA HAITI TASK FORCE – REV. DON GOTHAM

2015 had numerous teams serving in Haiti. In the month of August, the Rev. Jean LeslyDorcely and family came to Michigan and shared with United Methodists about theneeds in Haiti, and in particular, the Harry and Ella Brakeman School in Petit Goave,Haiti.

The main focus of the task force in 2015 was the Local Preacher’s Training Academy.Courses on Old Testament, and New Testament were taught by clergy from the MichiganArea, along with clergy from the Haiti District of the Eglise Methodiste d’Hait (EMH)i.Two areas of training remain for 2016, those being: Worship and Preaching, and Chris-tian Doctrine. Both remaining areas are scheduled, and teachers have been enlisted.Nearly 300 Local Preachers are expected to be consecrated at the 2017 Annual Con-ference of the EMH. This consecration will also occur as the EMH celebrates their 200th

year of ministry in Haiti.

THE UNITED METHODIST FOUNDATION OF MICHIGAN

The United Methodist Foundation of Michigan is privileged to serve so many congrega-tions and United Methodist organizations throughout the Michigan Area. The Foundationhas continued to partner with an ever-growing number of churches. Together with theselocal churches, we seek to assist and to inspire congregations in fulfilling their ministry.The Foundation offers a wide continuum of financial stewardship, socially responsibleinvestment management, and donor-focused services for local churches, districts, con-ferences, agencies, and institutions and their constituents.

During the past year, we have experienced some significant signs of growth and depthfor the Foundation. We are experiencing both our services reaching a wider constituencyand penetrating the Church at a deeper level. United Methodist Foundations across theUnited States are making a difference collectively in the lives of constituents. Our focusis on furthering the mission and expanding the vision of the Church. One of the wayswe are able to accomplish this goal is by asking, “How may we help you?” We askacross the many cross-sections of the Church. We have witnessed micro-grassrootsways and macro-denominational invitations to walk alongside the Church. Considersome of the ways our staff has been helping:

• Coaching in the areas of leadership and financial stewardship• Facilitating church leaders with strategic planning and visioning for their local church• Educating new pastors on personal finance, clergy taxes, and the denominational

pension plan• Setting policies for long-range fund development with conference-affiliated min-

istries

215


• Serving on the Design Team for the new United Methodist conference to be createdin Michigan

• Teaching pastors nearing retirement about retirement planning, housing, and pen-sion investments

• Aligning with VCI churches as they develop financial sustainability plans• Striving to make a difference in the lives of young and new clergy – offering multiple

seminary scholarship grants, partnering with the United Methodist Higher EducationFoundation, promoting and providing direct grants for Michigan Area clergy to at-tend Revitup! and the Clergy Benefits Academy

• Launching the inaugural Wayne C. Barrett Steward Leader Award and recognizingsix local churches demonstrating outstanding stewardship practices.

• Adding an interactive platform to our website which is helpful to individual con-stituents exploring planned giving opportunities and which provides an excellentopportunity for churches to link to these resources at no cost

• Working with Lilly Endowment, Inc. and the General Board of Pensions and HealthBenefits to address clergy personal financial literacy

• Answering the request from the NCJ bishops to be a partner in leadership trainingfor the NCJ College of Bishops

We are grateful to be a ministry partner with pastors, laity, and local churches. Togetherwe shall be stronger. Together a difference is made for the glory of God. Together weare “making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.”

Today, our PACE programs areallowing 186 frail, low-income seniors to receive all the medical care and attentionthey need while living independently and with dignity in their homes and communi-ties. At capacity, this number will grow to 625.

• The Edward N. and Della L. Thome PACE in Jackson opened on March 1, 2016.We were thrilled to receive two grants totaling $2.5 million from the Thome MemorialFoundation in support of this exciting endeavor.

In six years, UMRC has expanded from three locations to nine, providing servicesto older adults across twelve Michigan counties, and caring for more seniors thanever before.

But, even with UMRC’s tremendous growth, there is still much to do. Every day,10,000 Baby Boomers turn 65. This exploding senior population must not be ignored.Indeed, for UMRC, it is the driving force that will offer many opportunities to grow andexpand our continuum of care to increase the number of seniors we serve.

We are pleased to share some of the exciting plans that lie ahead for UMRC in 2016,particularly at our historic, flagship campus in Chelsea.

In October 2015, the UMRC Board of Trustees approved a Master Plan project that willtake several years to complete and will have significant positive impact at our historic,flagship campus in Chelsea and the residents we serve there. The Master Plan includes:

• Expanded and renewed Kresge Skilled Nursing and Rehabilitation to provide allprivate rooms and enhanced leisure space for residents to enjoy;

• Addition of 40 Independent Living cottages on the Chelsea campus near GlazierCommons;

• A “Living Well” center, including fitness area, all-accessible swimming pool and ther-apeutic pool for use by our residents;

• Updates to the Garden Homes.

As the senior population grows, so, too, will the need for Benevolent Care. In 2015, theUMRC Foundation provided Benevolent Care totaling $1.1 million for residentswho have outlived their savings. In 2016, we anticipate Benevolent Care needs toincrease by 15%. The UMRC Foundation continues its diligent efforts to grow the Benev-olent Care Fund to ensure that future residents will not have to worry about outlivingtheir savings.

In July, the UMRC Foundation netted over $190,000 at its annual Garden Partyfundraising event. These proceeds helped create beautiful therapeutic gardens for ourresidents at Towsley Village Memory Care Center. The next day, we welcomed over100 United Methodist Women, representing 17 churches from both Conferences, to ourUMW Tea Party at Chelsea Retirement Community.

217


We were also excited to host Bishop Deb Kiesey and her husband, Brad, for their firstvisit to Chelsea Retirement Community as they delighted our residents by performingat the evening Hymn Sing. A “Meet and Greet” reception followed.

UMRC has been diligently preparing for EAGLE accreditation through the UnitedMethodist Association (UMA) Health and Welfare-Related Ministries, Inc. EAGLE, orEducational Assessment Guidelines Leading toward Excellence, is the only faith-basedhealthcare accreditation program in the United States. UMRC has begun its self-as-sessment and plans to submit its application for EAGLE review in 2016. This processrecognizes and strengthens the work we are doing at UMRC, and we believe it will takeour faith-filled mission to even greater heights.

UMRC Foundation has worked with the Detroit Annual Conference to draft and finalizeUMRC’s church relationship statement.

UMRC is committed to expanding its programs and services to meet the ever-changingneeds of a growing senior population. However, at the heart of each new project andinitiative, behind each new renovation and expansion, is the philosophy of our faithfulfounders who knew that providing for the needs of the elderly was the right and com-passionate thing to do.

Thank you very much for your commitment to our mission: to promote the wellness,dignity, and independence of older adults by providing high quality and innova-tive residential and supportive services. Visit our website at www.umrc.com.

219

The Board is continuing to seek new campus ministries. Eastern Michigan University,Oakland University, Northwood University, and several Community College throughMotor City Wesley have been our target campuses.

The Board has met with our counter-parts in the WMC with members from GBHEM todiscuss campus ministry models for both meeting and funding. Rev. Jeff Williams (WMCBHECM chair) and I have been present at each others board meeting and looked athow each of our board function and what the future hold.

Our greatest challenge before the merger is how each of the 9 total campus will operatewith reduced funding (particularly in WMC) and how to maintain the level of excellencewith less financial support.

The Board continues to look for ways to connect with youth groups at the local churchlevel in order to encourage new college students to participate in campus ministries.This will be a priority for 2016.

I want to thank this Board for its commitment to serving young adults and for makingdisciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.

ADRIAN COLLEGE

Adrian College continues its nationally-recognized theological leadership in severalways. We are committed to student-centered ministry, and we combine this movementwith academic depth. It is a rare integration among United Methodist colleges and uni-versities.

There are eight different spiritual life groups on campus and weekly chapel services.Our staff includes one chaplain and seven student ministers. Chaplain Chris Momanyteaches as a member of the philosophy/religion department and publishes in both aca-demic and popular church journals.

221


Dr. Momany is a regular columnist for The United Methodist Reporter. He continues towrite for the United Methodist Publishing House’s Daily Bible Study and for Adult BibleStudies: Teacher. In March of 2015, he presented to the annual meeting of the WesleyanTheological Society. His book on Christian Holiness is used in a variety of classes andworkshops. Over the past year, Dr. Momany has served with the National Council ofChurches on the “convening table” dedicated to “Joint Action and Advocacy on Issuesof Justice and Peace,” and he is serving on the denominational review of our UnitedMethodist Social Principles. In this later capacity, he is among a select group of writerstasked with drafting preliminary updates to the Social Principles.

The Adrian College Chaplaincy is grounded in a theological commitment to the “intrinsicworth” of all people. This conviction guides our approach to campus community anddrives our current witness against “human trafficking” or modern-day slavery.

Highlights Include:

• A Wednesday Noon Chapel Series • A Nationally-Respected Pre-Seminary Program that Unites Student Discern-

ment with Formal Academic Study. Adrian College fielded a large contingentof students at “Exploration 2015,” Orlando, Florida.

• Adrian College students presented to the Second Formal Conference of “His-torians Against Slavery,” September 26, at the National Underground RailroadFreedom Center, Cincinnati, Ohio, and Dr. Momany presented to this body re-garding the relationship between moral theory and contemporary slavery.

Currently, Adrian College is working toward becoming a “fair trade” institution – a placewhere resources and products are available from honest “supply chains” that respecthuman dignity.

You, too, can join our movement. Contact Dr. Chris Momany at 517-265-5161, X4211.

CANDLER SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY

For more than 100 years, Candler School of Theology at Emory University has pre-pared real people to make a real difference in the real world. Since our founding in 1914,over 10,000 students have graduated from Candler, where they have been shaped asChristian leaders who put faith and love into action, transforming the world in the nameof Jesus Christ.

223


One of 13 official seminaries of The United Methodist Church, Candler is also one ofseven graduate professional schools of Emory University, a top-tier research institutionoffering extensive resources and a rich context for study. Our location in Atlanta providesa learning environment that reflects the highly diverse communities of the 21st century.Simply put, there is no better place for ministry preparation that addresses our majordenominational priorities: developing leaders, starting and growing churches, ministrywith the poor, and improving global health.

In order to keep pace with the needs of the church and the world, Candler now offers17 degrees: seven single degrees and ten dual degrees pairing theology with bioethics,business, development practice, law, public health, or social work. One of our newestdegrees is a retooled Doctor of Ministry that is 90 percent online, so students can remainin their places of ministry as they study—and apply what they learn in real time. We’vealso partnered with the University of Georgia’s School of Social Work to create anMDiv/MSW where students learn to maximize their effectiveness by combining pastoralskills such as spiritual counseling with social work practices such as family therapy andcommunity assessment.

Our student body continues to reflect the diversity and breadth of the Christian faithful.466 students are enrolled, with 48 percent women, 34 percent people of color (U.S.),and a median age of 29. Students represent 44 denominations, with 51 percent comingfrom the Methodist family. 82 percent of students are seeking a degree to prepare themas ministry professionals.

Candler has a deep commitment to alleviating student debt and employs a multi-pronged approach to tackle this issue. In 2015-2016, we awarded nearly $5.5 million inCandler scholarships, with 92 percent of MDiv students and 84 percent of all studentsreceiving support. And our comprehensive financial literacy program teaches moneymanagement skills that serve our students now and will continue to serve them—andthe churches they serve—well into the future.

At the end of the 2015-2016 academic year, Candler says goodbye and Godspeed to ahandful of noted faculty as they retire: Barbara Day Miller, Luke Timothy Johnson, SteveTipton, and Bishop Woodie White. Yet even as these legends take their leave after dis-tinguished careers of scholarship and service, we look forward to welcoming a new cropof scholar-leaders who will join us in the coming months and grow with us in the comingyears. We are especially pleased to welcome Bishop Larry Goodpaster, who will jointhe faculty as bishop-in-residence in the fall of 2016.

Candler draws considerable strength and inspiration from its relationship with The UnitedMethodist Church. Our ability to fulfill our mission of educating faithful and creative lead-ers for the church’s ministries in the world depends upon your support, gifts, and prayers.Thank you for the countless ways you advance this vital ministry in the life of our de-nomination. Visit us in person in Atlanta or online at candler.emory.edu to see firsthandhow Candler prepares real people to make a real difference in the real world.

DUKE DIVINITY SCHOOL

The academic year 2015–2016 has been one of transition as Dean Richard Hays wasdiagnosed with cancer and forced to step down from his role as dean a year soonerthan anticipated. Ellen Davis, Amos Ragan Kearns Distinguished Professor of Bible andPractical Theology, accepted the invitation from Duke University President Richard Brod-head to serve as interim dean this year. A robust search committee to select candidatesfor the dean position had already been assembled, and they have spent this year con-ducting a thorough and thoughtful process to present final nominations to the presidentand provost of Duke University, who will make the final decision. The final slate of can-didates was presented to the president and provost on Feb. 1, 2016, and we anticipatea final decision later this spring.

In the midst of this year of transition, we continue to engage with the church, academy,and society on important ecclesial and cultural issues. The heart of our work remainsthe preparation of men and women for Christian ministry and leadership within thechurch. This year we welcomed students from a range of backgrounds who are calledto serve God and the church. In 2015, our total enrollment was 626 students: 449 areenrolled in the M.Div. degree program; 36 in the M.T.S.; 19 in the Th.M.; 44 in the Th.D.;71 in the D.Min.; 33 in the M.A.C.P.; 16 in the M.A.C.S.; and 12 who are special students.Thirty-eight percent of our students are United Methodist, with an additional 4 percentfrom other Wesleyan traditions, and 43 percent of our M.Div. students are UnitedMethodist. Fourteen percent of all students are Baptist, 8 percent are Anglican or Epis-copalian, 3 percent are Roman Catholic, 8 percent are Presbyterian or Reformed, withthe rest from 22 other denominations or nondenominational churches.

This year we made a number of strategic staffing decisions to ensure that we are meet-ing the priorities of the Divinity School. Laceye Warner, associate professor of evangel-ism and Methodist studies, has been named our senior strategist for United Methodistcollaborations. Warner, whose background includes academic administration, parishministry, theological teaching, and denominational leadership, will bring oversight, guid-ance, and new ideas about ways that the Divinity School can work with our UnitedMethodist partners in the work of serving local churches and local pastors. She hasbeen named interim regional director and head of Course of Study at Duke, one of thelargest Course of Study programs. She will build on the strong existing curriculum toexplore new forms of pastoral formation, as well as develop more formal assessmentsabout the effectiveness of Course of Study to ensure that it delivers the best preparationfor local pastors and churches.

Warner has also worked with Pastor David McNitzky of Alamo Heights UMC in San An-tonio, Texas, to create a certificate program. People in the church were interested inlearning more about theology, church history, and biblical studies. The church offerscourses and helps people use this training to be transformational leaders in their churchand community, and Duke Divinity School recognizes this training with an approved cer-tificate.

Jeff Conklin-Miller, the E. Stanley Jones Assistant Professor of the Practice of Evangel-ism and Christian Formation and Royce and Jane Reynolds Teaching Fellow, has beennamed the new associate dean for academic programs. He is also the director of themaster of arts in Christian practice (M.A.C.P.) program. Conklin-Miller is an ordainedelder in the California-Pacific Conference and has served local churches as an associate

225


pastor, co-pastor, and senior pastor. In addition to his extensive church ministry, he hasexperience in academic administration and Christian formation. In his role as academicdean, Conklin-Miller draws on these various aspects of his experience in order to ensurethat academic and other formation programs at the Divinity School equip our studentsto further God’s work in the church and the world.

We are well aware of the changing landscape in theological education: fewer peopleexpress interest in pursuing theological degrees, and the costs of education continueto rise. As part of strengthening our commitment to the priorities of recruitment and fi-nancial aid, we have appointed Todd Maberry to the new position of senior director ofadmissions, recruitment, and student finance. Maberry, who earned an M.Div. from DukeDivinity School and an M.P.A. degree from North Carolina State University, has servedin academic administration and church leadership. Most recently he was the communitypastor at the Church of the Resurrection (Downtown) in Kansas City, Mo., and he comesto Duke under appointment of Bishop Scott Jones in the Great Plains Conference.

Another notable new hire is the appointment of Meghan Feldmeyer Benson as DivinitySchool Chaplain, following the retirement of Sally Bates. An ordained elder in the RockyMountain Conference, she served for nine years as Director of Worship at Duke Chapel.Shortly after Rev. Benson began her chaplaincy last summer, both Richard Hays andProfessor Kate Bowler were diagnosed with cancer, and she immediately demonstratedher gift for offering comfort and guidance to the Divinity School community through bothskillfully designed worship and pastoral care. In the months since, Benson has continuedto foster a spirit of prayerfulness, while also overseeing the Divinity School’s worshiplife and opportunities for spiritual formation.

Our initiatives, centers, and programs are a vital resource for us in connecting the workof Duke Divinity School with other disciplines and constituents. Our Thriving Rural Com-munities initiative hosted “Fan the Flame,” a weekend retreat on growth and sustain-ability for small-membership churches. In partnership with the Western North Carolinaand North Carolina Conferences, they also sponsored the 2015 Convocation on theRural Church, “Living in Community,” to discuss issues important for transforming ruralchurches and communities. The Hispanic House of Studies, supported by both NorthCarolina Conferences, hosted a retreat for pastors serving the Hispanic and Latino/acommunity. Duke Divinity School remains committed to supporting local churches andlocal pastors, particularly in under-resourced communities.

Spirited Life, a holistic wellness program and behavioral health study conducted by theClergy Health Initiative, has concluded its direct services to pastors, after working withmore than 1,100 United Methodist clergy in North Carolina since 2010. The programprovided resources for improving mental, spiritual, and physical health through evi-dence-based programs, coaching, and support. The initiative will continue to conductand publish research, and will continue to offer information for clergy, congregants, anddenominational officials to support the well-being of pastors.

Since 1979, the Center for Studies in the Wesleyan Tradition has been a source of in-ternationally acclaimed research and support for Methodist and Wesleyan studies. TheCenter hosts the Wesley Works Editorial Project, which this year published a new vol-ume of the works of John Wesley and launched a new website. The new volume, TheWorks of John Wesley Volume 27: Letters III (1756–1765), is the third of seven volumesdevoted to Wesley’s correspondence. The new website provides information on the pre-

226


viously published work as well as other resources for the study of John and CharlesWesley.

Several initiatives, specifically in the areas of health care, reconciliation, and the arts,provide opportunities for theological reflection to intersect with the pressing needs inour world today. Duke Initiatives in Theology and the Arts (DITA), Theology, Medicine,and Culture (TMC), the Office of Black Church Studies (OBCS), and the Center for Rec-onciliation (CFR) each sponsored numerous speakers and events during this past year.Faith & Leadership, the online magazine published by LEADD, continues to reach over300,000 readers and provide a resource for theological reflection and “traditioned inno-vation” for all in ministry. Their continued excellent work was recognized again this yearwith awards from the Associated Church Press “Best of the Christian Press” contest.

Our faculty continue to be recognized for their scholarship and interdisciplinary expert-ise. Xi Lian and J. Kameron Carter were both named Henry Luce III Fellows for 2015–16. Ross Wagner, Kate Bowler, and Jennie Grillo each received prestigious researchgrants and fellowships to support their book projects. Faculty continue to be in demandas preachers, speakers, lecturers, and conference presenters all over the world, fromacademic conferences to leading Sunday school classes, to preaching in churches.

We remain deeply grateful for the relationships among the United Methodist Church,this Annual Conference, and Duke Divinity School. We look forward to working with youin the task of preparing men and women for Christian ministry. To learn more aboutDuke Divinity School, please visit our website at www.divinity.duke.edu.

ILIFF SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY

Rev. Dr. Thomas V. Wolfe, President and Chief Executive Officer

Greetings from the Iliff School of Theology in Denver, Colorado. We wish you blessingsas together we share the work of strengthening the Church and offering a compassion-ate presence to the World.

The Iliff School of Theology’s commitment to the Wesleyan ethos of providing hopeful,intellectually alive, and spiritually grounded theological education for each and everystudent over the course of their lifetime continues. Iliff’s identity is focused on educatingleaders for three primary publics: the world, the church, and the academy. At Iliff, we re-fuse to choose between being a training home only for ministerial candidates, a centeronly for activists and scholar-activists, or a school only for academics. We believe allthree are inseparable and enhance one another as we deliberately situate ourselves inthe world and critically operate out of the world’s complexities.

As such, we recognize that the world’s religious landscape is changing and there ismuch at stake. Iliff recently completed its strategic plan, revised its curriculum, trans-formed its library, and initiated new relationships with other institutions. In collaborationwith the people of Africa, we’ve started a discussion with Africa University (AU) to fosteran educational alliance that will benefit Iliff and AU students. We have also joined a

227


multi-institutional collaboration facilitated by the General Board of Higher Education andMinistry and the HANA Scholarship to create a pipeline for Hispanic students fromUnited Methodist related secondary schools and historically black colleges leading tograduate level theological education.

Iliff’s enrollment continues to be strong with 365 students joining us this academic year,60% female and 40% male, 35% Methodist – all actively engaged in a host of ministrycontexts. Their interest continues to be strong in Iliff’s online and hybrid classes. A con-certed move by Iliff to reduce student debt and grow the ability of students to lead fi-nancially sound, engaged communities continues with many MDIV students participatingin the Spiritually-Integrated Financial Resiliency Program, funded by a $250,000 grantfrom the Lilly Endowment.

Iliff’s numerous events for area clergy and supporters remains part of our foundation.Via forums and conferences on social justice, food justice, the role of faith in politics,environmental stewardship, theology and disability inclusion, and more. Campus speak-ers included Rev. Gerald Durley, nationally-known civil rights leader and this year’sJameson Jones Preacher, Heather Jarvis, student debt reduction advocate, and more.Our efforts were duly noted by McCormick Theological Seminary’s Center for Faith andService when we were named as one of the nation’s “Seminaries That Change theWorld” and our Master’s of Theology Program was ranked seventh in the nation by On-lineColleges.net.

We welcomed two new scholars to our faculty this year, Rev. Dr. Jennifer Leath, Assis-tant Professor of Religion and Social Justice and ordained in the African Methodist Epis-copal Church, and Rev. Michelle Watkins-Branch, Gerald L. Schlessman Professor inMethodist Studies and Assistant Professor of Theology and ordained in the UnitedMethodist Church.

We continue to look forward with a courageous theological imagination. We are sincerelygrateful for your support of theological education and the Ministerial Education Fund.

WESLEY THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY IN WASHINGTON, D.C.

Called. Answered. Sent.

Wesley Theological Seminary has been equipping and sending forth prophetic preach-ers, teachers, and leaders into diverse ministries throughout the church and around theworld. Near and far, our alumni point to God’s love even as they join the Spirit in makingdisciples and shaping healthy communities.

• With more than 410 master’s-level students preparing for leadership in thechurch and the world, Wesley remains one of the largest and most diverse the-ological schools in North America.

• The Lewis Center for Church Leadership informs more than 17,000 pastorsand lay leaders on trends and ideas through its e-newsletter. The center has

232


influenced more than 5,600 church leaders through leadership assessments,sexual ethics trainings, and fundraising trainings.

• The new Institute for Community Engagement is forwarding Wesley’s missionof raising prophetic leaders in the public square through classes, partnerships,conferences, and resources.

Wesley Students Are Answering God’s Call

Wesley provides more than $2 million dollars annually in scholarships to our stu-dents thanks to the consistent support of alumni, congregations and friends of the sem-inary. The Ministerial Education Fund and conference partners help us equip a broadrange of students to serve the church as pastors and leaders. These include:

• Two Master of Divinity students who are exploring ordination in the UMC havecreated outreach opportunities for people who ordinarily would not considergoing into a church. Zach Spoerl and Matt Wilke, working with three UnitedMethodist Churches and Wesley, have started Pub Theology in downtownD.C., drawing spiritual-but-not-religious young adults into Christian commu-nity.

• Master of Theological Studies student Jane Adams is working with denomi-nations and congregations on issues of poverty and hunger in the U.S. As anintern at the Center for Faith-Based and Neighborhood Partnerships at theU.S. Department of Health & Human Services, she provides tools for buildingon charitable activities such as food pantries and backpack ministries. As amember of a local United Methodist congregation, she’s putting her knowledgeto work in her local church and neighborhood, too.

Christian leadership must innovate for greater faithfulness and be able to engagethe full diversity of people within our society even while holding true to the foun-dations of our faith and tradition. The people named above – as well as so manymore of our students – exemplify these aims. Read more about our students at wesleyseminary.edu/stories.

Mourning the Loss of a Christian Leader

The Rev. Clementa Pinckney was a Doctor of Ministry student at Wesley in the Lead-ership Excellence track. He was working on a research project on the combined role ofpastor and statesman, when his life was taken along with eight others at MotherEmanuel AME Church in Charleston, S.C. Pinckney exemplified the spiritually pow-erful and prophetic leadership that is at the core of our mission.

To ensure Pinckney’s legacy continues, Wesley has established scholarships in hisname for Doctor of Ministry candidates seeking to empower their congregations, engagetheir communities, and influence public discourse. Additionally, Wesley has developeda Doctor of Ministry track exploring the intersection between public life andchurch leadership. This degree focus amplifies Wesley’s mission and location and,we hope, will raise up leaders to continue Pinckney’s legacy.

COMMISSION ON EQUITABLE COMPENSATION

The laity and clergy persons who make up the DAC Commission on Equitable Com-pensation takes seriously the charge put before them and are grateful for the opportunityto serve our Church as we serve on this Commission. Salary grant requestsfor 2016 came in under and did not exceed our budget again for this last calendar year.Mostly this was due to re-assignments of pastors in the July time frame and the BishopsCabinet being pro-active in recognizing, matching and shifting personnel and financesto better meet the needs of both clergy and congregations.

Grant requests have increased the last few years from an average of $3,000-$5,000 to$5,000-$10,000 for this current year. With the help of other conference agencies wehave been able to provide much needed salary support to the churches that requestthem.

The CEC is blessed and prepared to continue to support the ministry of local congre-gations and ensure that a Pastor in our Conference receives the minimum salary setforth in our guidelines. The Commission met in December 2015 for grant requests forthis upcoming year and January 2016 to recommend the Conference Minimum SalaryGuidelines.

COMMISSION ON ARCHIVES, HISTORY, AND MEMOIRS

The Commission held three meetings during the year - one in February at FlushingUnited Methodist Church, one in May at Annual Conference, and one in November atthe Michigan Area Ministry Center in DeWitt.

Archivist Rebecca McNitt is still maintaining normal reference services, processing anddescribing archival collections, and creating exhibits for annual conference. Once againshe has reduced the size of the processing backlog, even while new collections continueto arrive steadily.

Rebecca's greatest accomplishment this year was the completion and launch of a newwebsite for the Conference Archives, complete with information about using the

234


Archives, finding aids to all manuscript collections, and links to digital resources suchas old conference journals. The new site can be found at http://adrian.edu/umcarchives/

In the spring of 2015, the Archivist learned that the Conference Archives needed to bemoved to another location within the Adrian College Library. Over the next severalmonths, Rebecca, her volunteer assistant, and two student employees of the CollegeLibrary moved all of the manuscript collections and books twice - first into a temporaryholding area and then (after the shelving had been moved) into the new rooms. Althoughthe Archivist managed to maintain some reference services throughout the move, it didreduce her time for processing and describing newly received collections.

The archives were open during Annual Conference from 10 a.m. to 4 p.m. on each dayof the meeting. Several researchers made extended or repeat visits to examine a varietyof topics and other individuals visited to donate materials.

In July, Commission Chair Mary Whitman, archivist Rebecca McNitt, and Commissionmembers Della Wilder, Diana Miller, Linda Schramm, and Bill McNitt attended the NorthCentral Jurisdictional Convocation on Archives and History meeting in Evanston, Illinois.Linda Schramm also serves as chair of that body and presided over the meeting. Whileat the convocation, the delegates visited historical sites and churches, and attendedlectures and business meetings. Rebecca McNitt presented a review of the activities ofthe Commission and its archives.

It is the responsibility of the Commission on Archives and History to collect memoir in-formation for the Journal when the death occurs of clergy, diaconal ministers, lay mem-bers of the previous annual conference, laypersons of the conference support staff andministry team, dependent children of clergy members, missionaries related to the con-ference and others recommended by the Commission on Archives and History. This isaccomplished by contacting family members through the use of the death notices pub-lished by the Detroit Annual Conference.

The committee also assisted with the presentation at the Remember Time during theopening service. Whenever possible, families provide adjectives to be read during theservice and a brief statement to be published as a part of the Remembering Time. If thefamily is unable to provide this, a statement is prepared by the committee with the as-sistance of their obituary and their local church. Families are invited to attend and askedto RSVP so that we may have a committee member greet them in the chapel prior tothe service.

A Memorial Program is published and distributed during the Opening Worship Servicelisting those who are being remembered and including the statements as provided. Wealso incorporate pictures, when they were available, in a Power Point presentation dur-ing the service as the adjective tributes were read.

The Commission appreciates the Conference’s patience and support as we continueshaping this ministry into the blessing intended for those families experiencing a greatloss in their lives.

235


The Commission on Archives and History expresses its sincere appreciation to archivistRebecca McNitt as she continues to improve access to archival materials as well as re-sponding to research requests.

We look forward to working towards our Michigan Area Conference and all that canmean for the future Archives and History of the United Methodist Church in Michigan.

BOARD OF LAITY

GROW Disciples was the emphasis for 2015 Annual Conference with the scripture “AndJesus came and said to them, "All authority in heaven and on earth has been given tome. Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of theFather and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything thatI have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age."Matthew 28:18-20 (NRSV)

Individually and collectively, the members of the Board of Laity strive to empower laityso they are better able to partner with clergy in making disciples of Jesus Christ for thetransformation of the world.

Rev. Scott Chrostek, Pastor of Church of the Resurrection- Downtown, provided thekeynote address entitled “Practice Makes Perfect” describing his faith and journey instarting a new church in downtown Kansas City.

Ministry of the Laity session at 2015 Annual Conference was celebrated by John Walls,“Micki” Phelps , and Bridget Nelson. All concentrated on youth and young adult laity inministry across our conference in mission outreach, mission interns, campus ministry,and special retreats and conferences.

We encourage all churches to celebrate Laity Sunday to recognize the work of the laityin the local church on the third Sunday in October or a Sunday of their choice. Thetheme in 2016 is Disciples Called to Action: Living Vital Worship.

The number of laity involved in conference leadership has declined. In 1995, laitychaired 14 Conference boards or agencies and clergy chaired 7. The 1995 journal didnot list chairs of several areas. In 2015 laity chaired 14 boards or agencies and clergychaired 21. The Board of Laity working with the Nominations Committee is making anincreased effort to mentor and nominate laity for positions within our conference. TheDistrict lay leaders are in a unique position to identify and suggest laity who are makinga difference in their district and have the capability to serve and bring energy to the De-troit Annual Conference.

John Wharton was nominated by the Board of Laity to become Conference Lay Leader2016-2020 pending approval of the 2016 Annual Conference. We pray for him as heprovides input from a lay perspective to the leadership of Detroit Annual Conference.

236


Our Methodist heritage includes active lay leadership in spreading scriptural and socialholiness throughout the land. The DAC laity and clergy working together, using theirspiritual gifts to love and serve God and neighbor, will transform lives of people in Michi-gan.

MICHIGAN AREA COMMITTEE ON THE EPISCOPACY

The North Central Jurisdictional Committee on the Episcopacy asked all conferenceswithin the jurisdiction to evaluate their bishop. The process for our committee began inApril with the selection of 80 people in the Michigan Area who would participate in anon-line survey. The survey was completed by the end of July, compiled, and presentedto Bishop Kiesey by December 1. After this report was completed, Bishop Kiesey an-nounced her retirement. While her return to the Michigan Area would have been wel-comed, especially in this transition time, we support Bishop Kiesey’s decisioncompletely. Her leadership will be missed. We are deeply grateful for the four years thatwe will have had with her and look forward to the new Episcopal leadership that Godwill bring to the Michigan Area

In July we said farewell to the Assistant to the Bishop, Rev. Dr. Bill Dobbs. The MichiganArea is grateful for his wisdom and guidance. Bishop Kiesey appointed Rev. MelanieCarey as the new Assistant to the Bishop. She has served the area with integrity andcompassion. Rev. Carey has requested an appointment to the local church and hasbeen granted that request by Bishop Deb. Rev. John Boley has been appointed to bethe next Assistant to the Bishop.

The North Central Jurisdictional Conference will meet in Peoria, Il in July to conductbusiness and elect bishops. At that time the Michigan Area will be assigned a bishopwho will assume those duties in our area in September. We will have an opportunity tohonor Bishop Kiesey at Annual Conference in June. She will be moving to Iowa.

Bishop Deb has brought a spirit of healing and hope that was much needed. She cameto Michigan listening to our needs. Her gentle, steady and wise guidance has allowedall to have a voice and be heard. She has been attentive to and open to the movementof the Holy Spirit. The Michigan Area has been blessed by Bishop Deb and we wish herall of God’s blessings as she retires.

Spanish Language Challenge

In the start of 2016, the Conference Committee on Hispanic/Latino Ministries gave achallenge to all the local churches in the Michigan Area to plan and run a Who is OurNeighbor? Spanish Language Study at their church. The study is a six-week study forlearning Spanish as Church Hospitality. So far, six churches are participating in the chal-lenge. The goal is for at least 10 churches to participate.

COMMITTEE ON NATIVE AMERICAN MINISTRY (CONAM)

The Committee on Native American Ministry continues to promote recognition of NativeAmerican contributions to the culture and society, with emphasis on fostering a cooper-ative community of acceptance and appreciation for the spiritual gifts we all have tooffer. In 2015, the scope of CONAM’s presence expanded to include presentations tochurch groups in Detroit, South Lyon, and Sterling regarding the exciting progress ofthe Saganing Native American Center development.

The “facelift” began during the spring and summer with the creation of five flowerbedswhich bloomed with an assortment of perennial and annual color. Volunteers hauledrocks to place around the borders and carried buckets of water from the kitchen most

238


of the summer to keep the flowers alive. In August, a mission group from Leighton UnitedMethodist Church installed the new sign in front of SNAC and also painted the fence,did multiple repairs, and cleaned the cemetery grounds – as well as installing an outdoorspigot to facilitate the flower-watering process! A team of United Methodist Men fromRenaissance District arrived in October to hang new blinds and varnish the windowframes in the fellowship hall; and the sanctuary boasts new windows thanks to a grantfrom the General Board of Global Ministries.

Clara Lawrence, representative from CONAM, attended Mission Day in Troy in Marchand shared information with the committee at its quarterly meeting in April. Oscodahosted the regular committee meeting in September, where team members reportedthe success of Oscoda’s family camping experience at Camp Nissokone and discussedPathway Funds, Conference merger, and further program planning for the Saganingsite. The committee also proposed a non-food giveaway for Saganing and designated$500 to provide “family care” packages for those in need. We filled 12 boxes with suchitems as dish detergent, shampoo, tissues, paper towels, razors, and laundry detergent.Ten families had gratefully accepted boxes by year’s end.

In collaboration with the Bay-Arenac Diaper Bank Council, and with the help of a Path-way grant received from the Conference, the weekly Saganing Diaper Pantry distributedmore than 2000 diapers in 2015. Committee members met August 29 at the Saganingsite for the second annual Back-to-School Bonanza and spent the entire morning fillingbackpacks with school supplies donated by various churches and organizations. Re-cipients began lining up at 9 a.m. for the noon-to-2 p.m. event, and 213 children receivedbackpacks during that two-hour period. Tables piled with clothing provided by Kids’Klothesline (an outreach program of Community UMC in Standish) were also a popularattraction.

Collection of $6748.24 for Native American Ministry Sunday in 2014, approved byCONAM to be distributed for use in 2015 as quarter-shares for each ministry, will nowbe subject to annual reporting by each of these ministries. This requirement follows theformer ruling agreed upon by committee members in 2014. Zeba Indian Mission, Os-coda Indian Mission, and the Saganing Native American Center each received$1687.06, with the remainder retained in the CONAM fund.

Upcoming activities specific to Saganing Native American Center include continuedcommunity outreach through the Diaper Pantry program, coffee and donuts providedfor visitors to the cemetery who attend the ceremony honoring veterans on MemorialDay, an Open House in June in conjunction with historical displays and Native art exhibit,Lay Servant Ministry classes in July, and third annual Back-to-School Bonanza in Au-gust, along with other community-focused events during 2016. The site still requires re-pairs and additional maintenance, but CONAM has identified and prioritized remainingconcerns. Opportunities for use of this charming facility continue to be explored.

As for CONAM, the ministries and outreach accomplished through its efforts will be pro-moted throughout the Conference. The success of these efforts hinges upon buildingawareness among those in need of assistance and those capable of providing it. Visitwww.detroitconference.org/conam for more information about our mission, ministries,and upcoming activities.

R #3 – 2017 COMPREHENSIVE BENEFIT FUNDING PLAN


The Detroit Conference Board of Pension & Health Benefits moves that the 2017 Com-prehensive Benefit Funding Plan as summarized below be adopted by the Detroit An-nual Conference.

INTRODUCTION

The 2012 Book of Discipline ¶ 1506.6 requires that each annual conference develop,adopt and implement a formal comprehensive funding plan for funding all of its benefitobligations. The funding plan shall be submitted annually to the General Board of Pen-sion and Health benefits for review and be approved annually by the annual conference,following the receipt and inclusion of a favorable written opinion from the General Boardof Pension and Health Benefits (GBPHB).

The Detroit Annual Conference has received a favorable written opinion for its 2017Comprehensive Benefit Funding Plan. This document summarizes the information con-tained in the actual signed funding plan regarding all areas of The Detroit Annual Con-ference benefits liabilities.

CLERGY RETIREMENT SECURITY PROGRAM (CRSP) Defined Benefit (DB) andDefined Contribution (DC) Program overview: The Clergy Retirement Security Pro-gram (CRSP) is an Internal Revenue Code section 403(b) retirement program providinglifetime income and account flexibility designed for those who serve as clergy of TheUnited Methodist Church. The program is designed to provide participants with one por-tion of their overall retirement benefits. CRSP replaced the Ministerial Pension Plan(MPP) effective January 1, 2007, which had previously replaced the Pre-82 Plan forservice rendered prior to January 1, 1982. CRSP consists of both a defined benefit (DB)plan, which provides a monthly benefit at retirement based upon years of credited serv-ice to The United Methodist Church, and a defined contribution (DC) plan, which pro-vides a retirement account balance established and funded by the annual conferences.

Current funding plan information: The Clergy Retirement Security Program (CRSP-DB) annuities total liability as of January 1, 2015 is $1.271 billion, while total plan assetsare $1.407 billion, resulting in a current plan funded ratio of 111%. The Detroit Confer-ence portion of the liability is 1.7432% and the 2017 contribution is $1,791,670. Theconference anticipates that the amount will be funded by redirecting Pre-82 surplus as-sets and/or by conference reserves. Additionally, General Conference 2012 approveda change to CRSP that provides each annual conference the discretion to determinewhether to cover three-quarter and/or half-time clergy. The Detroit Conference haselected to cover clergy serving 50%+ under CRSP since January 1, 2014 and intendsto continue this coverage in 2017.

Effective January 1, 2014 the CRSP-DC plan was reduced from a 3% to a 2% of plancompensation non- matching contribution. Clergy have the opportunity to earn up to anadditional 1% CRSP-DC contribution by contributing at least 1% of their plan compen-sation to UMPIP. Therefore, if a participant contributes at least 1% of plan compensationto UMPIP, the individual will receive a conference contribution of 3%, which is un-changed from 2013. The 2017 CRSP-DC contribution is anticipated to be $608,350 andwill be funded by pension apportionment receipts from local churches.

MINISTERIAL PENSION PLAN (MPP) Plan overview: Supplement Three to the ClergyRetirement Security Program (CRSP), also known as the Ministerial Pension Plan(MPP), provides clergy with a pension benefit for their years of ministry with The UnitedMethodist Church from 1982 through 2006. MPP is an Internal Revenue Code section

294

403(b) retirement plan. Effective January 1, 2014, exactly 65% of the account balancemust be annuitized when the funds are to be distributed. The remainder may be rolledover to UMPIP, into an IRA or another qualified plan, or it may be paid out as a lumpsum.

Current funding plan information: The Ministerial Pension Plan (MPP) annuities’ totalliability as of January 1, 2015 is $3.122 billion, while total plan assets are $3.509 billion,resulting in a current plan funded ratio of 112% and no required contribution for 2017.The Detroit Conference’s % of the total liability is 2.0640%. Future MPP annuitants havea total account balance of $4.145 billion and the Detroit Conference’s portion of thatbalance is $61,847,711 or 1.49% of the total.

PRE-1982 PLAN Plan overview: Supplement One to the Clergy Retirement SecurityProgram (CRSP), also known as the Pre-1982 Plan, provides clergy with a pensionbenefit for their years of ministry with The United Methodist Church prior to 1982. ThePre-1982 Plan was replaced by MPP effective January 1, 1982. If a clergy person retireswithin the Conference (and does not terminate), the minimum benefit payable is basedon two factors: 1) years of service with pension credit and 2) the Conference pensionrate. Years of service with pension credit are approved by each Conference on the rec-ommendation of the Conference Board of Pension & Health Benefits (CBOPHB) in ac-cordance with plan provisions and The Book of Discipline. The pension rate, also calledthe Past Service Rate (PSR), is the dollar amount chosen by the Conference as theamount payable for each approved year of service with pension credit. The pension ratemay change from year to year. The number of years of service with pension credit ismultiplied by the pension rate, and the product is the minimum annual benefit payableto those clergy eligible for Pre-1982 Plan benefits. In certain situations, the benefit re-ceived from the Pre-1982 plan may vary based on the applicability of what is referredto as Defined Benefit Service Money (DBSM), which is the defined contribution featureof the Pre-1982 Plan. At the time that a participant retires, the DBSM account is con-verted to a life based benefit. At that point, the clergy’s benefit is the greater of the PSRor DBSM benefit. If the conference increases the PSR, the clergy’s benefit is recalcu-lated; but the DBSM based benefit does not change.

Current funding plan information: The 2017 PSR recommended to the Detroit Con-ference will be $804.00, representing a 2.03% increase from the 2016 rate. The confer-ence expects future increases to be approximately 2.00%, which is based on similarannual increases over the past several years in connection with the annual ConferenceAverage Compensation (CAC) rate. The contingent annuitant percentage is recom-mended to remain at the 85% level.

Based on the final actuarial valuations from the General Board of Pension and HealthBenefits as of January 1, 2015 for 2017, the portion of the Pre-1982 liability and assetsattributable to the Detroit Conference and its related funded status are as follows:

Funding Plan Liability $(51,952,502)

Assets, including In-Plan and Outside 65,289,705

Funded Status $13,337,203

Dean of Cabinet’s Report 2016

CABINET CO-DEAN’S REPORT

Rev. Anita Hahn, Superintendent in the Grand Traverse District

“Every time you cross my mind, I break out in exclamations of thanks to God!”(Philippians 1:3)

This last year we have been on a journey, together. At Annual Conference 2015, in ourseparate spaces, we all affirmed that we were ready to date seriously and we beganpreparations for our marriage, spending the rest of our lives, together. There is strengthin the bridges that we are building. Committees and agencies are formally talking aboutour similarities and differences, while focusing on not what is the ‘better practice’ but fo-cusing on what is the new ‘best practice’ for transforming Michigan and this world forJesus Christ. At Annual Conference 2015, Rev. Dr. Tara Sutton and I became the newDeans, Dr. Sutton for the Detroit Annual Conference Cabinet and me for West Michigan.

Our first agenda item was to plan for our Fall Cabinet Retreat. Until the fall of 2014 ourCabinet retreats were, for the most part, at two different times and in two different places.This last fall, the most important thing that we wanted to do was to get to know eachother. We spent significant time sharing with each other both the dynamics of our dis-tricts and our strategic plans. We talked about the exciting things that we are doing,about our hopes and dreams, and we talked about our fears or aches for the future aswe see fewer Elder appointments being sustained and smaller congregations choosingto let go of their church buildings so that their resources may be used to support newministries. Realities that continue to tug at our hearts and souls as we continue to lookto the new relationships and ministries that God is calling us to engage. We have alsoappreciated Dirk Elliot and Gary Step working with us and their wisdom for new churchideas and effective ministries.

After we met together for the retreat we knew that we had built relationships with eachother that we did not want to loose and therefore did not want to return to our separate“Cabinet” meetings. We were ready to journey, intentionally, together. Unfortunately, wecouldn’t figure out how to change our fall schedule to accommodate meeting togetherso we set our joint meeting schedule to begin with our Winter Retreat. We began to lookdifferently at how we would work together and we asked Rev. Elbert Dulworth to overseethe appointive process for both conferences. For a few years now, we’ve tried to workwith appointments—an hour on and a half-hour off. This might sound like a great wayto work and we all wish we could take half-hour breaks—often! What we found was thatin those half-hour time periods, some of the most honest, informal, encouraging andhope-filled conversations, happened. Sometimes it provided time for a walk or for per-sonal care that was needed. It gave space for conversations that lead to some of ourmost effective, creative, appointment work.

Our bond has been strengthened as we have walked through the loss of both clergycolleagues, friends and parents this last year. We have had tugs in our personal familiesthat have caused us anxious moments and we have sought prayer and encouragementfrom each other. We have tried to prioritize prayer (we pray often) and the need to sup-port each other as we navigate issues in practical ways—what is right and wrong andwhat does The Book of Discipline say, as well as spiritually.

304


This past February, Rev. Dr. Tara Sutton stepped aside for a second Leave. “Tara, I amgrateful for who you are, your leadership, your friendship and your health! God hasblessed me because of knowing you. I will never understand why ‘tough stuff’ happensto good people, but I know that you have found healing—physically and emotionally thislast year and as you anticipate your next appointment, you are right where God needsyou to be.”

And thanks to Rev. Elbert Dulworth who continued his role of overseeing Appointmentsas well as stepped up to the role of Dean – again. Rev. Dulworth comes with skills ofmanagement, care and visionary leadership, and a heart for Jesus. As we anticipateour 2016-2017 year we are grateful for Rev. Dulworth’s willingness to lead us anotheryear. We have also talked about the roles in the Cabinet team and how they can beshared so that one person is not overwhelmed with the details of being Dean. And Ithank Elbert for allowing me this opportunity to share this first Dean’s Report to theMichigan Conference!

This occasion meant so much to me that I invited my family to come, my husband Kevin,my daughter Lisa and son Andrew, Wesley is studying at Hillsong College in Sydney,Australia, instead of inviting him we are going to go see him at the end of June! Andwhen you have a really important event you invite your Mom, Karleen Dude, she is incentral Illinois watching the live stream; and you invite your in-laws, Keith and MariannHahn; and thank you Grand Traverse District and my edge of the Heartland District, andto be honest—all of you who have seen something in me and encouraged me and lovedme, even on the tough days!

As I organized my thoughts for this report, Alexander Rossi, age 24, won—a bit unex-pectedly the 100th run of the Indianapolis 500! He was a young person-trusted by hiselders. He had an excellent team behind him—just in case you are unaware, a race isnot won by the “runner” it is won by the team who provides care along the way. Growingup, I was always more intrigued with the pit crew and the reality that a race can be wonor lost by the team behind the driver. What does it mean to run a race knowing that youcan trust the persons on your team, you can make decisions that you don’t necessarilyagree with, but you are able to support, because you are on the same team and youhave a clear goal/vision in front of you. You have built a solid relationship with your teammembers so that you don’t have to question another persons’ motives or intentions. Andmay I add that there is a clear vision?

This last year we (the Cabinet) had intentional conversations about what it means to bea “District” and a “District Superintendent.” We see with clearer vision what it will meanto be leaders in the conference and to continue to lead the local church. As we havelearned how different we are—we have also learned what is vital to us in this role ofSuperintendency. Vital to each of us is to continue to have time and space where wecan build relationships with the local churches and clergy on our districts. We have seenthe need and celebrate the ways that we are reaching out beyond our local churches tomake a difference in our communities and world. As we send missionaries around theglobe—life changing relationships are made. As we open doors at laundry mats, soupkitchens, and free stores—relationships are built, lives are restored and Jesus Christ isbringing healing to our neighborhoods.

We are working with our church conference forms to be streamlined across the state. Ihave learned as a District Superintendent that the forms you complete each year, if

305


done well do focus you with a clear vision for another year of ministry. But we are awarethat maybe some of the information could be gathered in an easier way. We continueto know that we need to ask churches to be accountable to the Kingdom building taskat hand and not simply doing something so that the checklist is complete.

We want to continue to empower, reach and engage our young adults and persons whowill be our new clergy. Being willing to support, listen to, and pray for our new leaders(lay and clergy) is going to be vital for the new growth that will come to our denomination.

We want to use our effective clergy well and we want to work to empower clergy andlay to use the gifts that God has given them to the fullest extent. We each celebratethose times when we can empower the exciting ministries happening in a local andchurch and we each mourn those moments when we struggle to find the right leadershipto guide the church seemingly simply due to decreasing financial resources. We wantto give appropriate educational opportunities and coaching to clergy so that each canreach new heights of effectiveness.

Key in our ministry moving forward is discerning how we open the door of our churcheswithout judgement or condemnation. Jesus said, “God sent his son into the world not tocondemn the world but that the world through him might be saved.”

This last spring as I drove around our conference, I listened to a lot of “The Andy GriffithShow”, in most places I could tap into the show on Netflix. It felt safer than falling asleepor other things I might do while driving.

During one episode, Opie (Andy’s son) was stingy (it appeared) with his financial re-sources. He did not give to the fund drive to help the poor at school. Andy was appalledand even more disgusted because a member of the community who was heading upthis fund drive was breathing down his neck and letting him know that his son, Opie hadonly given 2 cents. Andy was short tempered with him. Opie kept trying to tell his dadabout the use of his money, he was saving it to spend on a girl, Maryellen. It was clearthat Andy did not want to hear anything about how Opie was going to spend his moneyfrivolously on Maryellen until Aunt Bee stepped in (Aunt Bee is the Aunt/housekeeper/care giver of the family) and she looked at Andy and said, “You know Opie’sheart.” She knew that Opie would not choose to keep his allowance for a frivolous rea-son so finally Andy sat Opie down and asked about how he was going to use his money.Opie responded that he was going to buy Maryellen a coat. Opie went on to say, “Seehers was looking awfully tattered last year,” and Opie wanted to make sure that she hada new winter coat next year and Maryellen had shared that her family couldn’t afford anew one. When Andy asked Opie why he never shared this piece of info with him, Opiesimply responded, “You never asked.”

I pray as we head into this next year that we will focus on building real relationshipswith people. That in knowing the heart of persons, even though we may not agree, wewill find means for understanding their heart and even take time to listen.

When Jesus returned to Capernaum after some days, it was reported that hewas at home. So many gathered around that there was no longer room forthem, not even in front of the door; and Jesus was speaking the word tothem. Then some people came, bringing to him a paralyzed man, carried byfour of them. And when they could not bring him to Jesus because of the

306


crowd, they removed the roof above him; and after having dug through it, theylet down the mat on which the paralytic lay. When Jesus saw their faith, hesaid to the paralytic, ‘Son, your sins are forgiven.’ Now some of the scribeswere sitting there, questioning in their hearts, ‘Why does this fellow speak inthis way? It is blasphemy! Who can forgive sins but God alone?’ At once Jesusperceived in his spirit that they were discussing these questions among them-selves; and he said to them, ‘Why do you raise such questions in yourhearts? Which is easier, to say to the paralytic, “Your sins are forgiven”, or tosay, “Stand up and take your mat and walk”? But so that you may know thatthe Son of Man has authority on earth to forgive sins’—he said to the para-lytic—‘I say to you, stand up, take your mat and go to your home.’ And he stoodup, and immediately took the mat and went out before all of them; so that theywere all amazed and glorified God, saying, ‘We have never seen anything likethis!’ (Mark 2:1-5)

When Jesus saw their faith…

Who do you love enough to dig a hole in a roof and to place them at the feet of Jesus?Hear the longings and the hearts of those you seek to love and to serve and dare toshare your own heart, too. This last year I renewed my love for Jesus when my Daddied. And I renewed the ache in my heart to share the “good news” with all of creation—because why should anyone have to live without knowing the strength of Jesus Christ?Of an amazing God—and yet—I’m aware that just because someone is not in my churchdoes not mean that they do not know God. May I have as much courage to share mystory as to hear another’s story!

The other piece of this story is the care of the four who knew that they had to bring theirfriend to Jesus and I don’t know who you would trust with your life— But I’d allow thesepersons (Cabinet colleagues) to lower me through the roof into the presence of Christ—in fact they have! And I would trust anyone in this room to do the same! As I’ve met youand witnessed your heart, I know that I can trust my life to your care. You won’t let medrop—

As we move forward as one conference, we will continue to have pains. To make thenecessary adaptive changes that are necessary, we have to be willing to let go of every-thing that we know in order to understand another’s perspective in order to hear theWord of God. If we continue to move forward in fear of persons and ideas that we donot understand, we will continue to find ourselves amidst arguments and barriers thatwe cannot cross.

Church! God has called us to reach to hear a broken world. Some of us will close ourchurches this next year so that the resources we have left can impact a new congrega-tion. Some of us will reach around the globe in a new mission opportunity that has yetto be revealed to us. Some of us will empower a new mission or ministry—just becausesomeone comes to us and says, ‘let’s try—and you do! And the most important thingthat I have learned as a District Superintendent is that Jesus is my Savior and at theend of the day, I am God’s and God is mine—and you have that same promise full offorgiveness and grace and passion!

Thank you for continuing with us on this journey of seeking to reach ALL GOD’S CHIL-

307


DREN that next year when we come around to this time of Conferencing we will be ableto continue to share how lives are better because of the real relationships that we havechosen to engage. THANKS for being the Church!

The church showed up in Flint this last year, or that’s when we heard about our arrivalas water became the crises that swept over the state. We have heard words of hope and encouragement through the mouth of our Bishopand other leaders in our midst.

We said goodbye to Joanne Bartelt, Superintendent of the Blue Water District until justtwo years ago. Now she is bringing treats to God I am sure, on a daily basis. Hospitalityis in tip-top shape in the Kingdom, now!

We shared our call stories and shared how adults God placed in our paths intentionallytook interest in us and thus we stand before you, today. There was someone in our lifewho loved us unconditionally! And that’s why we are here, today.

Things Dad Highlighted In Romans:

(And hope does not disappoint us,) because God’s love has been poured into our heartsthrough the Holy Spirit that has been given to us. (Romans 5:5)

(But God proves his love for us in that) While we were still sinners Christ died for us! (Romans 5:8)

For sin, seizing an opportunity in the commandment, deceived me and through it killedme. (Romans 7:11)

But you are not in the flesh; you are in the Spirit. (Romans 8:9)

But if Christ is in you, though the body is dead because of sin, the Spirit is life becauseof righteousness. (Romans 8:10)

So then, brothers and sisters, we were debtors, not to the flesh, to live according to theflesh. (Romans 8:12)

I consider that the sufferings of this present time are not worth comparing with the gloryabout to be revealed to us. For the creation waits with eager longing for the revealingof the children of God; (Romans 8:18-19)

Likewise the Spirit helps us in our weakness; for we do not know how to pray as weought, but that very Spirit intercedes with sighs too deep for words. And God, whosearches the heart, knows what is the mind of the Spirit intercedes for the saints ac-cording to the will of God. We know that all things work together for good for those wholove God, who are called according to his purpose. (Romans 8:26-28)What then are we to say about these things? If God is for us, who is against us? Hewho did not withhold his own Son, but gave him up for all of us, will he not with him alsogive us everything else? Who will bring any charge against God’s elect? It is God whojustifies. Who is to condemn? It is Christ Jesus, who died, yes, who was raised, who isat the rights hand of God, who indeed intercedes for us. Who will separate us from thelove of Christ? Will hardship, or distress, or persecution, or famine, or nakedness, orperil, or sword? (Romans 8:31-35)

308


In all these things we are more than conquerors through him who loved us. For I amconvinced that neither death, nor life, nor angels, nor rulers, nor things present, northings to come, nor powers, nor height, nor depth, nor anything else in all creation, willbe able to separate us from the love of God in Christ Jesus our Lord. (Romans 8:37-39)

VISION: Win or nothing! We are dependent on the pit crew to win or lose the race.
