VI. DAILY PROCEEDINGSof the West Michigan Annual Conference

FIRST DAY — CLERGY SESSIONThursday, June 4, 2009, 8:30 AM

Bishop Jonathan D. Keaton called the clergy session to order at 8:37 AM.

Lynn Grimes gave announcements, inviting clergy to join in the ordination service and encouraging clergy to give generously to the offering which will pay for ordination gifts. The offering was taken.

Laurie Haller led the clergy in singing the Ordination hymn Come, Holy Ghost, Our Souls Inspire and also encouraged clergy to participate in the Ordination Service.

Dick Morrison led the clergy in the call to praise and prayer. Bill Dobbs led the clergy in Come and Find the Quiet Center. Dick Morrison led the clergy in prayer, read Romans 12:1-2, and led the prayers of the people. Bill Dobbs led the clergy in singing We Have Come at Christ’s Own Bidding.

Motion: Lynn Grimes moved that Terry Euper, Laura Witkowski, Sus’ann Busley, Vicki Gibbs, and Diane Allarding be granted voice, but not vote in the clergy session. Motion carried.

Motion: Lynn Grimes moved that voice but not vote be granted to provisional, associate, affiliate, full-and part-time local pastors under appointment, persons on honorable location and diaconal ministers. Motion carried.

Motion: Lynn Grimes moved to set the bar of clergy session as persons on the floor of the arena. Motion carried.

Lynn Grimes introduced the Board of Ordained Ministry and recognized them for the hard work that they do throughout the year.

For the Order of Elders, Bill Beachy reported on his renewal leave and encouraged clergy to explore the possibility of taking renewal leave.

For the Order of Deacons Julie Dix reminded us that the Order of Deacons and Elders are on the same playing field. However, the Order of Deacons and Elders differ around the table; Elders preside and unify, Deacons link and extend. While the Elders and Deacons have distinct roles, their work nevertheless overlaps. Both are called to serve passionately and are called to work as one team. Julie Dix stated that our primary challenge is to listen to God with an ear on how the two orders might work together to transform the world and the Church.

Michael Riegler spoke for the John Wesley Association. Michael highlighted Constitutional Amendment 19, which would extend voting rights to licensed local pastors and asked for each of us to be in prayer as we vote on this amendment.

Motion: Ed Perkins moved “that the Clergy Session of the West Michigan Annual Conference direct the chairs of the Orders of Elders, the Order of Deacons, the John Wesley Association and the Board of Ordained Ministry to schedule an open meeting for the members of those groups with the Bishop and Cabinet, to discuss the process of appointment-making in the West Michigan Conference, with particular reference to our Conference Flexible Housing Policy and how it is administered and that this meeting happen prior to December 1, 2009. Motion Carried.

Bishop Keaton gave a sermon in which he reminded us that God is bigger than all those things that create suffering, those things that are affecting our lives now, bankruptcy of Chrysler and GM, unemployment, swine flu, and church closings. Yet in the midst of suffering we still have joy in Jesus Christ and therefore we should rejoice in our suffering because it produces endurance. Bishop Keaton reminded us that even in this time of suffering, we must continue to show hospitality and generosity. There is hope even in our times of suffering. The United Methodist Church will not have resurgence without suffering, without sacrifice, but our suffering and sacrifice will produce endurance, hope, and change.

THIRD DAY — EVENING SESSIONSaturday, June 6, 2009, 7:00 PM

Dan Dick spoke to conference about the need for churches to show hospitality. Dan Dick said we need to create a culture which starts by creating a place where people can become what God wants them to be. It must be a place where people feel welcome and comfortable, but it also must be a place of discipleship. What makes a church unique is that we are the Body of Christ and we must be a sign of the body of Christ; and therefore must be countercultural. Dan Dick said that churches must focus on their ministry and mission and when they do that they will grow. He contended that focusing on growth or money instead of the ministry and mission doesn’t work. Part of the church’s ministry and mission requires the church to go out into the world. This also allows more people to get involved. The more opportunities and different opportunities there are for people to get involved in, the more success a church will have. Dan Dick stated “worship and evangelism should be kept separate.” Worship should not be about learning about God, but praising and celebrating God. He said that everyone must be given an opportunity for leadership in the church and accountability and membership are important. There must be a commitment to lifelong education and learning by everyone in the church and churches must also have a way to measure and evaluate the effectiveness of a church to make disciples. Churches must ask four big questions: What is our story? Message? Purpose? Impact? Dan Dick provided four non-negotiables of vitality 1) healthy relationships 2) positive and productive environment 3) clear expectation with accountability 4) commitment to the highest vision of development and learning.

Bob Lynch offered prayer and Bill Johnson gave announcements, which he ended by showing a video about the Wesley Foundations.

Best Rated A+ provider at a lower premium cost, and the provider under the Master Group Plan will not match that premium, the Annual Conference may, for up to one year reimburse the local congregation the difference out of the savings realized by coverage of Conference Facilities and properties, as long as sufficient funds exist.”

There were two speeches in favor of the motion.

Motion: Greg Buchner called the question for all that was before Conference. Motion carried. The amendment to the motion was carried. The Hills motion as amended was carried. The motion is referred to CF and A because of the financial implications.

Motion: Ward Pierce moved to suspend the rules to limit debate to 3 speeches for, 3 speeches against, and limit speeches to 3 minutes. Motion carried.

Larry Rubingh requested the Bishop make a Decision of Law on whether Item #10 is in accordance with our book of Discipline P2532.2. The Bishop will review Item #10.

The Conference Nominating Committee presented their final report with corrections.

Motion: Steve Charnley moved the acceptance of the report and asked for permission to perfect it. Motion carried.

Benton Heisler announced awards given over the past year. West Michigan received an award for the highest percentage churches participating in The Advance in the North Central Jurisdiction. The Bob Smith Hunger Award went to the Snow UMC for its exceptional giving to hunger at $104 per member. The Helen Smith Hunger Awards were presented to Nottowa UMC – Small church category; Ionia First UMC – Mid-Size Church; and Kalamazoo First UMC – Large Church. Peace Maker of the Year – Penny Zago, Director of the Shalom Center and member of Lansing: Central UMC. Peace Sermon of the Year: Dale Hotelling, pastor of Muskegon: Crestwood UMC. Then, in a moment of personal privilege, Benton Heisler asked the Bishop to change the date of conference to not meet on Sunday or on a weekend during graduation season. Laura Witkowski announced the total from the morning offering as $4,557.64 which is going to ministries with persons with HIV/AIDS. Bishop Keaton drew five names as winners of the Wellness Clinic Health Screening drawing. Bill Johnson offered thanks to those who helped to make the conference a success and ensured that all will receive personal thank you notes.

Joy Moore was given a moment of privilege and she recognized Kennetha Bigham-Tsai as the second African American women ordained in the West Michigan Conference. Bill Johnson recognized Jessica Marie Smith for her gift of dance which she shared with conference throughout the week. Smith thanked conference for the opportunity to come and shared how this experience gave her a renewed sense of purpose.

Motion: Bill Johnson moved adjournment of conference following Ordination. Motion carried.

FOURTH DAY — COMMISSIONING AND ORDINATION SERVICESunday, June 7, 2009, 2:30 PM

The clergy processed into Van Noord Arena singing Praise to the Lord, the Almighty as they prepared to receive new deacons and elders in West Michigan Conference.

Barbara Jo Fay was recognized as an associate member. Those being commissioned were Thomas Arthur, Catherine Christman, DeAnn Dobbs, Amee Miller, John Weiler, Martha Beals, Kimberly DeLong, Julie Greyerbiehl, Jonathan VanDop, Christina Wright. Those being ordained were Janet Sue Carter, Kennetha Bigham-Tsai, Robert Merlin Hughes, Patricia Lynn Bromberek, and Jeffery L. Reese.

Bishop Jonathan Keaton gave a stirring sermon on the call to ministry. Bishop Keaton examined the candidates for commissioning, and then commissioned each by name. He then examined the candidates for ordination. Hands were laid upon each candidate as they were ordained as deacon and elders. The clergy stood and sang Veni Creator Spiritus as a welcome and blessing to the newly ordained. Communion was then served by those commissioned and ordained.

After the service of communion, Bishop Keaton extended an invitation to all who might have been feeling God’s call on their lives. As the conference sang Here I Am Lord a number of people came forward to be met by clergy and members of the Board of Ordained Ministry who prayed with them.

The service concluded with the singing of Lord, You Give the Great Commission.

ppr #2 Local Church 1. All churches shall submit payments on Ministry Shares and other giving to the Conference Treasurer

on a monthly basis. 2. All contributions, whether apportioned or unapportioned, for Michigan Area agencies and

institutions, and for all benevolent causes of The United Methodist Church, shall be sent to the Conference Treasurer for distribution.

3. Every church shall assume responsibility for adequate travel reimbursement for its pastor or pastors in its annual budget. Following are guidelines to help a local church administer its travel allowance for pastors:

a. Each pastor shall keep an accurate record of the number of miles traveled on church business.

b. The payment for mileage driven in any given year shall be by voucher at the maximum rate allowed by the Internal Revenue Service for that year. Other travel expenses, including room and board at Annual Conference up to Conference rates, shall be at cost.

4. Every church shall assume responsibility to provide in its annual budget for health family rate insurance through the conference group policy for its pastor or pastors. If such provision is not necessary because coverage is provided by some other source (pastor’s spouse), half the savings benefit will remain with the church.

5. Effective dates for salary and Clergy Retirement Security Plan/Comprehensive Protection Plan (CRSP/CPP) payments for Ministerial Appointment changes:

a. The salary shall be paid through June 30 when an appointment change is made at the session of the Annual Conference. Salary payments for mid-year appointments will coincide with the effective date of the appointment.

b. Payment on CRSP/CPP billing from the General Board of Pension and Health Benefits shall be made for the entire month of June for those appointment changes made during the session of Annual Conference. CRSP/CPP payments for mid-year appointments with an effective date of the first of the month shall be made for the previous month for the outgoing pastor and for the current month for the incoming pastor. Payments for appointment changes effective the 15th of a month shall be made for half of the current month for the out-going pastor and half of the current month for the in-coming pastor.

ppr #3 Conference and District Travel Expenses Reimbursement 1. The rate for all full-time Program Staff, District Superintendents and those appointed to extension

ministries (¶344.a.1) shall be by voucher at the maximum rate allowed by the Internal Revenue Service, or the actual cost of public transportation rates. Other travel expenses, including room and board at Annual Conference up to Conference rates, shall be at cost.

2. The reimbursement rate for all Conference and District committees and boards shall be 15 cents per mile. It is expected that all pastors will be reimbursed from their local church travel expense account; therefore, reimbursement checks from the Conference Treasurer’s Office shall be payable to the local church. Other reimbursable costs may include approved lodging, tolls, parking and telephone, if the organizational unit has budgeted for them.

3. All travel expense payments shall be by voucher only. 4. Reimbursement costs for necessary care for dependents (children, sick or elderly) may be included

in the administrative budget of any organizational unit for members attending board, commission or committee meetings. The amount reimbursed shall not exceed $20 per day per member.

PPR #4 Finance and Accounting 1. All agencies and institutions outside the Conference central treasury that are receiving money in the

total amount of $5,000 or more within a year from the West Michigan Conference shall file a copy of their annual audit report, a financial review by an independent CPA, or other financial statements approved by the Conference Treasurer with the Conference Treasurer’s Office.

b. The Board of Christian Camping is permitted to establish an insurance Deductible Reserve Fund not to exceed $5,000. The funding of this reserve account will come from the Camp Board budget.

d. The Treasurer’s office may set aside up to $7,500 annually for the purchase of computer hardware and systems.

f. The Connectional Ministry Section, the Administrative Funds Section and the World Service and Conference Benevolences Section of the Conference Budget may accumulate apportioned or unspent funds in a Contingency Fund account from year to year up to a maximum of 10% of the amount budgeted in the current year.

5. At the end of the year, the Council will review the apportionment receipts and the disbursements made to determine if it will be necessary to restrict spending for the following year. If a restriction is found to be necessary, it will be effective March 1, and the amount of the restriction may not exceed the percentage of the budget that was not collected during the previous year. The Council will advise all organizational units of their budget restriction respectively. The World Service Apportionments will continue to be paid at 100% of the amount budgeted and all other General Church Apportionments will be paid at least equal to the ratio of actual receipts.

6. Budgeted funds are for the Current Year only. a. All funds provided through the Conference Budget will be available for programs or projects

taking place within that year. There will be no carryover of any funds into the next year unless specifically provided for in these policies.

b. Programs which are scheduled after January 1 of any given year are to be funded from the budget of that year. Where payments are required in the current year for a program next year, the Treasurer’s Office shall provide for an advance payment by charging a Clearing Account temporarily and then charging the proper account after the beginning of the new year.

7. All interest earned on General Funds carried in Central Treasury shall be accumulated in a General Funds Interest Account. (This does not include funds in Central Treasury which are being held for specific purposes and have been designated as Interest Earning Funds by the Council.) At the end of each fiscal year, this General Interest Account shall be transferred and accumulated in the Conference Contingency Fund to be administered by the Council on Finance and Administration.

8. The Conference Contingency account may accumulate funds from interest earnings and budgeted Apportionments not to exceed an amount equal to one month’s operating expenditures of the Conference. This would be 1/12 of the Conference budget.

9. Guidelines for the borrowing of money from financial institutions to fund capital expenditures of certain organizational units of the West Michigan Conference:

a. Requests to borrow $75,000 or less will be acted upon by the Council on Finance and Administration. Requests to borrow more than $75,000 will be automatically referred to the next session of the Annual Conference with recommendation.

b. Emergency or unexpected borrowing needs will also be referred to the Council on Finance and Administration, which may act on behalf of the Annual Conference.

c. The Chairperson and the Secretary of both the Council on Finance and Administration and the organizational unit seeking the funds will sign the promissory note and/or other documents required by the lending institution. If the loan is to be secured by a mortgage, the signature of the authorized officers of the corporation holding title to the property will also be required.

PPR #7 Ministry Shares Formula The West Michigan Annual Conference adopted the following Ministry Share (apportionments)

effective January 1, 2005.Ministry Shares Formula The projected income of the West Michigan Annual Conference will be based on a Proportional

Giving Model built upon the Biblical principle of “tithing.” Our Ministry Shares formula will be based on each congregation sharing a Base Percentage Rate of the Actual Receipts each local church as the basic conference budget. Special Needs funding may be added when necessary.

Definitions a. ActualReceipts is the total annual income of the local church excluding receipts for capital

fund campaign approved by the District Committee on Church Building and Location. Actual Receipts are funds that are to be used exclusively in support of the annual operating and benevolence budgets and do not include funds used for capital improvements and acquisitions. These funds include:

1. Payment of pledges or other commitments toward the annual operating and benevolence budgets of the church.

2. Receipts from constituents or members who did not pledge or amounts given beyond the amount pledged.

3. Receipts from unidentified givers (for example, loose currency in the offering plate). 4. Interest earned on funds on deposit or investments and used for the general operating or

benevolence causes of the church. 5. Proceeds from sale of church assets designated for the general operating or benevolence

budget only. 6. Proceeds from rental or fees. 7. Fund raisers for operational and benevolent causes. Exceptions maybe granted by CFA

upon request by the pastor for funds raised for special causes like UMCOR, VIM, Youth Mission trips, etc.

8. Amounts received from undesignated grants and contract sources used to fund church programs.

9. In-kind donations recorded in church financial statements. 10. Donations of property, memorials and bequests designated for church operating and

benevolence expenses. Bequests and endowments designated for other designated causes are excluded.Note: A local church may request a determination from CFA whether or not certain funds received are to be included as “Actual Receipts” before January 15.

b. BasePercentageRate is ten percent of the annual local church receipts. For 2005 only, the increase or decrease of ministry shares will be capped at 20%. The percentage figure will be reviewed annually and recommended by the Council on Finance and Administration to the Annual Conference churches for adoption, with a 60% vote of members present and voting required to change from the 10% base rate.

c. Specialneeds-Additional connectional giving opportunities may be recommended by CFA to the Annual Conference for special needs or strategic planning emphasis, such as capital funds, new church development, pension plans, or health care, etc. Additional percentage giving opportunities will be presented for churches to pledge their partnership and financial support.

PPR #12 Abuse Prevention Policy Entrusted to our care: Adults with special needs, children, and youth Abuse Prevention Policy of the West Michigan Conference of the United Methodist Church

180 2009WEST MICHIGAN ANNUAL CONFERENCE

LEG

ISLA

TIO

N

Preamble Through baptism we renounce the spiritual forces of wickedness and reject the evil powers of this world.

We will surround all God’s children with a community of love and forgiveness that they may grow in their trust of God. The faith community lays the foundation for them to grow to be true disciples who walk in the way that leads to life. The occurrence of abuse or neglect within the household of God breaks this covenant. Sadly, abuse remains a reality in today’s society both outside and within the church. The West Michigan Conference accepts its biblical and moral responsibility to address this issue. Therefore, this policy is intended to provide for the safety and health of adults with special needs, children and youth during conference-related functions, events or activities.

Abuse and neglect cannot be tolerated or allowed to continue. Our adults with special needs, children and youth must be protected. Too often a victim continues to be abused and/or a perpetrator continues the offensive behavior because it goes unreported. The perpetrator is unlikely to report his/her conduct, and adults with special needs, children or youth often do not report it because of fear or a variety of other reasons. Therefore, it is everyone’s moral obligation to report all known and suspected cases of abuse or neglect. The reporting of abuse or neglect must be handled delicately and appropriately while protecting the rights of confidentiality and privacy of all the involved parties.

This document hereafter shall be referred to as the Abuse Prevention Policy or, simply, this Policy.

The goals of this Policy include: 1. protecting our adults with special needs, children and youth from abuse and neglect; 2. protecting our care providers from false accusations of abuse; and 3. protecting the vitality of our ministries.

To reach these goals, the Conference has adopted and implemented this Policy. This Policy is intended to supplement and not replace the continuing need of our Conference to minister to the spiritual and emotional needs of both the victims and perpetrators of abuse. All camp ministry functions, events and activities shall be in compliance with this Policy and the State of Michigan Family Independence Agency Camp Licensing Rules and Regulations for Children and Adult Foster Care Camps.

[The definitions of terms used in this Policy may be found at the end of this document.]

Section I: Care Provider Selection A. Minimum Requirements 1. All persons working directly with adults with special needs, children, and/or youth shall

before the function, event or activity, a. be 16 years of age b. complete a Care Provider Application c. Provide written references d. Submit written permission and pertinent information for a criminal record check to be

pursued with local, county, state and/or federal law enforcement agencies.All applications and related documents shall be held confidential and kept by the event director. Persons will be allowed to work at a given event only with a clear background/crime report, and with the approval of the event director and/or the sponsoring agency’s chairperson. A clear report does not guarantee the privilege to work at a function, event or activity.

2. All potential care providers will complete the Care Provider Application prior to the function, event or activity. Training will be provided by the Abuse Prevention Team or its designee. [See Section II: Care Provider Training and Education.]

B. Policy Statement The West Michigan Conference of The United Methodist Church is responsible for doing all it can

to make every conference-related function, event or activity a nurturing environment and safe from potential harm. The West Michigan Conference embraces its calling to provide functions, activities and events which are spiritually and developmentally appropriate and free from abuse.

Careful screening is one step to prevent abuse. Screening calls for a careful review of all information (through interviews, written information, personal contacts, and reference checks) in search of persons who can provide a safe and nurturing environment with adequate supervision.

PPR #13 Covenant of Clergy Sexual EthicsA Policy of the West Michigan Annual Conference StatementofCovenant God has called us, through the grace of Jesus Christ, into covenant with God and one another. This

covenant is intended by God to be a means of reconciliation, justice, faith, hope, and love. We live out this covenant in the Church. This covenant implies that there are standards to which clergy are expected to adhere and assumes that each clergy person seeks to live according to these high standards. “Ordination and membership in an Annual Conference in The United Methodist Church is a sacred trust” (TheBookofDisciplineofTheUnitedMethodistChurch,2000,¶359.1). Sexual misconduct/sexual abuse/sexual harassment of any kind is sinful behavior against God and one another. Not only does such behavior violate a person’s integrity but it also constitutes an unjust use of status and power which breaks this sacred trust. Therefore all clergy are expected to exercise the most compassionate judgment and to live out the highest ethical standards regarding the role of human sexuality in all interpersonal relationships.

Preamble This policy is intended to assist the ministry of the Church by stating expected standards of behavior

and by defining inappropriate sexual conduct by clergy. It is further intended to provide guidance so that when incidents of sexual misconduct/sexual abuse/sexual harassment are alleged, the complainant and the respondent may experience grace, justice, and reconciliation. Grace means unconditional love, but it does not mean escaping the consequences of inappropriate actions.

This policy is provided to the lay and clergy members of the West Michigan Annual Conference with the hope that it can assist us in creating and maintaining healthy relationships of integrity and safety for the sake of our common ministry to the people of God in the name of Jesus Christ.

TheologicalReflections Scripture teaches that male and female are created in the image of God, and are of equal value in

Christ. From the beginning God intended that all people live out this equality in relationship with one another. Jesus was sent into this world that all persons might experience whole relationships with God and each other.

TheBook of DisciplineofTheUnitedMethodistChurch-2000(¶161.G) states: “We recognize that sexuality is God’s good gift to all persons. We believe persons may be fully human only when that gift is acknowledged and affirmed by themselves, the Church, and society. We call all persons to the disciplined, responsible fulfillment of themselves, others, and society in the stewardship of this gift.”

****************************************************

I. Definitions A. Clergy – The term “clergy” as used in this policy includes all ordained, commissioned,

licensed, and consecrated persons serving in the West Michigan Annual Conference, including those serving in extension ministries, on leave, honorable location, retired, and those lay people assigned to pastoral ministry in a local church by a District Superintendent.

B. Sexual Misconduct and Sexual Abuse1 – The terms sexual misconduct and sexual abuse as used in this policy include sexual contact or inappropriate sexual behavior (not limited to sexual intercourse) by the clergy with an adult or minor parishioner, client, church staff person, or colleague, abusing their vulnerability, regardless of by whom it was initiated.

C. Sexual Harassment1 – The term sexual harassment as used in this policy applies to conduct by the clergy with an adult or minor parishioner, client, church staff person, or colleague, abusing their vulnerability, regardless of by whom it was initiated and is defined as follows: “SexualHarassment – We believe human sexuality is God’s good gift. One abuse of this good gift is sexual harassment. We define sexual harassment as any unwanted sexual comment, advance, or demand, either verbal or physical, that is reasonably perceived by the recipient as demeaning, intimidating, or coercive. Sexual harassment must be understood as an exploitation of a power relationship rather than as an exclusively sexual issue. Sexual harassment includes, but is not limited to, the creation of a hostile or abusive working environment resulting from discrimination on the basis of gender.Contrary to the nurturing community, sexual harassment creates improper, coercive, and abusive conditions wherever it occurs in society. Sexual harassment undermines the social goal of equal opportunity and the climate of mutual respect between men and women. Unwanted sexual attention is wrong and discriminatory. Sexual harassment interferes with the moral mission of the Church” (TheBook of DisciplineofTheUnitedMethodistChurch-2000, ¶161.I).

D. These definitions in I. B. and I. C. above are also applicable in the context of ministries in which there are not “parishioners,” but there is a community which acknowledges the authority of the clergy as a spiritual leader, such as, but not limited to, appointments to extension ministries, honorable locations, leaves, or retirements.

____________________ 1Sexual misconduct, sexual harassment, and sexual abuse are chargeable offenses in The Book of DisciplineofTheUnitedMethodistChurch-2000(¶2702).

II. Standards for Clergy Conduct A. Clergy related to the Annual Conference are accountable for the ways they respond to persons

who ask assistance and/or over whom they have authority. A violation of clergy relationship, clergy responsibility, and clergy authority is abusive and unethical and could result in the discontinuance of ordained, commissioned, licensed, consecrated status or assignment.

B. Clergy have the responsibility for developing healthy and ethical relationships with other persons. Married clergy have made a vow to nurture and maintain a faithful marital relationship. Single clergy must maintain appropriate sexual conduct in dating relationships as understood in our Christian teaching.

C. Personal integrity and mature professional conduct are a part of every clergy relationship. Such standards prohibit any sexual misconduct/sexual abuse/sexual harassment with a parishioner or client entrusted to his/her sacred care.

III. Expectations A. Clergy often relate to persons who are fragile and vulnerable, and therefore, clergy must

exercise special care: 1. To maintain psychological, emotional, and spiritual health; 2. To be properly and adequately prepared and educated, including continuing education,

in order to provide appropriate help for those in their care; 3. To seek counsel, advice, and supervision.

B. Clergy self-discipline requires self-awareness and a standard of ethics which is implied and described in the vows of ordination and consecration.

C. All those within the clergy covenant of the Church are encouraged to discern when particular support, therapy, or other assistance should be sought for clergy colleagues.

IV. Misunderstandings and False Accusations – Fear often surrounds the issues of misunderstandings and false accusations. Certain words and behaviors may be heard, seen, and felt in a different way by one person than by another person. False accusations may sometimes be made. It is understood, therefore, that all care will be taken by those involved in the investigation to determine the validity of a complaint and the appropriate response.

V. Retaliation – It is important to protect persons who truthfully disclose such misconduct. Retaliation against those persons by anyone is prohibited.

VI. Confidentiality and the Responsibility for Reporting Clergy Sexual Misconduct – Clergy sexual misconduct/sexual abuse/sexual harassment places an unfair and unavoidable burden on the victim of such conduct. Truth-telling may be risky and painful and may also stir up strong feelings of fear and anger for all involved. Even so, truth-telling has the power to release both offenders and victims from the secrecy, denial, and guilt that result from sexual misconduct/sexual abuse/sexual harassment.

The Church is a place for healing and justice; therefore, it must recognize, prevent, and stop sexual misconduct/sexual abuse/sexual harassment. All clergy and laity bear sacred responsibility to become informed of appropriate standards of conduct and to address alleged sexual misconduct/sexual abuse/sexual harassment. Clergy and laity alike bear responsibility for confronting one another with knowledge of sexual misconduct/sexual abuse/sexual harassment.

When the covenant of the clergy has been broken by instances of sexual misconduct/sexual abuse/sexual harassment pain and disruption occur. Sexual misconduct/sexual abuse/sexual harassment creates many victims: those directly involved, spouses, families, congregations, and their surrounding communities. In those moments the Church is called to bring about healing, reconciliation, and restoration of all parties. This may include encouragement and support of an aggrieved person, care for one committing the offense, and initiation of complaint procedures as outlined in TheBook of DisciplineofTheUnitedMethodistChurch2000(¶359).

VII. Procedure – If you have experienced sexual misconduct/sexual abuse/sexual harassment you may contact the office of a District Superintendent or the Bishop. These addresses and phone numbers are available in any local United Methodist Church.

The Book of Discipline of The United Methodist Church-2000 will be followed in response to complaints which are initiated. Every complaint will be taken seriously and treated with integrity and confidentiality.

VIII. Final Notes – If any provision of this policy is in conflict with TheBookofDisciplineofTheUnitedMethodistChurch, The BookofDisciplineofTheUnitedMethodistChurch shall prevail. Such conflict shall not be grounds for invalidating the entire policy.

Copies of this document are available from the Conference and District Offices.

I. INTRODUCTION A. Preamble to the PLAN OF ORGANIZATION:   The “Plan of Organization” serves to order the life of the West Michigan Annual Conference in mission 

and ministry as we seek to fully realize the 21st century vision of “each alive in Christ, all connected in mission.” Under girding the organizational structure are the core values held by the Annual Conference. These core values enliven the relationships within the structure and shape our common identity as West Michigan United Methodists.

  The West Michigan Annual Conference will:    Be Biblically Based and Spiritually Centered, in that it is      … formed in Christ and led by the Holy Spirit      … the basis for relationships      … the basis for missional outreach      … marked by joy, honesty, perseverance, justice and risk-taking    Be Interactive, in that it is      … flexible, responsive, accessible, and provides strong communication    Share Power, in that it      … is respectful, participative, and inclusive      … promotes a collegial community      … frees people for ministry.

B. The West Michigan Conference PURPOSE STATEMENT:   The West Michigan Annual Conference is a link in the connectional chain of United Methodism joining 

together the General Conference, the Jurisdictional Conference, the Districts and the local congregations in reaching out in ministry to the world. Our collective purpose as an Annual Conference is to:

    1.   Demonstrate our faith as disciples of Jesus Christ guided and empowered by the Holy Spirit, and proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ to all persons with the hope they, too, will become disciples;

    2.   Provide  opportunities  for  biblical  learning,  spiritual  growth,  leadership  development  and

worship in order to nurture, equip and support persons for Christian life and ministry;    3.   Establish and sustain congregations who endeavor to serve Jesus Christ in society, practicing 

and teaching thoughtful stewardship of human, natural and financial resources;    4.   Inspire,  recruit,  develop  and  support  laity who will  lead,  assist  and  enable  congregations 

and individuals in the ministry of Jesus Christ within the West Michigan Conference and the whole church; and

    5.   Inspire, recruit, develop, support and appoint pastors and Diaconal Ministers who will lead, assist and enable congregations and  individuals  in  the ministry of  Jesus Christ within  the West Michigan Conference and the whole church.

  C. Organizational Principles:  The organizational structure outlined herein has these principles:    1.   To  create  organizational  units  at  District  and  Conference  levels  which  are  compact  and 

focused to best enable and equip the work of the local congregations; and    2.   To keep the basic membership of organizational units small yet adequate to provide developing 

programs, thereby permitting more persons to be doing ministries planned than planning the ministries; and

    3.   To encourage all organizational units  to accomplish  their work by creating  task  forces of their own choosing as needed to do their work, using persons interested in doing a particular task  for  a  designated  time,  not  to  exceed  two  years  and  then  dissolving  that  task  force group. In creating a task force the organizational unit shall inform Conference Nominating Committee of such action indicating the names of those on the task force and the date of its creation; and

    4.   To  allow District  Conferences  and District  Nominating  Committees  to  design  their  own District Council on Ministries, or the equivalent, structures as they choose to do the ministries that will happen on the several Districts.

    5.   To  recommend  that  The  Conference  Nominating  Committee  seek  to  achieve  in  all  its nominations,  the  goal  of  1/3  laymen,  1/3  laywomen,  and  1/3  clergy  with  racial/ethnic representation in each organizational unit.

    6.   To emphasize the importance of nominating persons who expect to serve on a unit for at least four years. Although elections are annual, continuity of leadership is important, especially in smaller units.

    7.   To ensure the representation of youth on all organizational units of the church and to affirm youth as vital members of the church of today.

D. Definitions:    1.   “Ad hoc” — for the purpose of particular end at hand.    2.   “Agency” —  a  term  to  describe  the  various  boards,  councils,  commissions,  committees, 

divisions, or other units constituted. See Par. 801, 1988 DISCIPLINE for fuller definition.    3.    “At‑large”  —  without  regard  to  geography,  specific  responsibilities,  or  any  other 

classification.    4.  “Board”  —  one  of  the  nine  (9)  program  units  of  the  Conference  (Christian  Camping, 

Church  and  Society,  Discipleship,  Evangelism,  Global Ministries,  Higher  Education  and Campus Ministry, Board of Laity, Ordained Ministry (program only) each responsible to the Conference Council on Ministries and having direct relationship with similar General Church agencies as well; The Board of Trustees, and the Board of Pension and Health Benefits each responsible  to  the Conference and having direct  relationship with similar General Church agencies.

    5.  “Conference” — Hereafter the word Conference shall mean The West Michigan Conference of The United Methodist Church.

    6.  “Co‑opt”— to choose or elect as a member for a particular task or purpose.    7.  “Conference Staff” — Director of Connectional Ministries and Program Coordinators of 

the Conference Council on Ministries, Conference Treasurer/Administrator, and such other program and/or administrative full-time employees as may from time to time be provided.

    10.  “Ministry Team” — employed leaders of the Annual Conference comprising the Bishop, Assistant to the Bishop, the District Superintendents, the Director of Connectional Ministries, the  Conference  Treasurer/Administrator  (all  of  the  aforementioned  comprise  the  Full Cabinet), the Conference Program Staff members, and the Director of the United Methodist Foundation.

    11.  “Organizational Unit” — an officially established council, board, commission, division, committee, task force, council, section of the Conference. Means the same as “agency”.

    12.  “Task force” — a small group selected to work for a designated time not to exceed two years on a designated assignment, then to be dissolved when the task is completed. Membership on a task force may come from anywhere, i.e., is not restricted to membership on the parent group. Persons may serve on a Task Force who has membership on other organizational units, if they choose. In the formation of the task force, attention should be given to inclusiveness (laity, clergy, gender, race and age.)

    13.  “Ex‑officio” — members on an organizational unit because of office or position with voice and vote unless otherwise stated.

E. General Provisions:    1.   Membership eligibility. Only members of the United Methodist Church shall be eligible for

    2.   Conflict of interest.  No  person  receiving  compensation  form  a  Conference  unit  shall be  eligible  to  be  an  officer  on  an  organizational  unit  from  which  he/she  would  receive compensation,  unless  required  by  the  DISCIPLINE,  this  Plan  of  Organization,  or  the expressed intention of this Conference. Care shall be given to avoid, as much as possible, appearance of conflict of interest of persons serving on organizational units who at the same time work with  congregations or other bodies who  receive  funding  from  the Conference. No member of an organizational unit shall vote on any matters pertaining to Conference or District funding for any congregation or agency by which he/she is employed.

    3.   District Superintendency. The District Superintendents shall not be eligible for membership on any organizational unit of the Conference except as required by the DISCIPLINE or the expressed intention of this Conference. Superintendents shall (A) serve as voting members of  the Conference Council  on Ministries;  (B)  serve  as  voting members  of  the  respective District  Councils  on  Ministries  or  the  equivalent,  and  the  several  District  Committees, etc. that exist. (C) One District Superintendent shall be named by the Bishop to serve as a member without vote on (1) the Board of Ordained Ministry, (2) The Council on Finance and Administration, and with vote on (3) the Commission on Equitable Salaries, (4) and the Personnel Committee. For  communication purposes District Superintendents may  receive mailings  and  maintain  contact  with  chairpersons  of  other  organizational  units  but  they shall not be expected to attend meetings of those units. Any person serving on a conference organizational  unit who  is  appointed  to  the Cabinet  shall  end  such  service  at  the Annual Conference when the appointment commences, or at least by the next Annual Conference if it is a mid-year appointment. Nothing in these provisions shall be interpreted as preventing a District Superintendent from serving on any Jurisdictional or General Church agency, nor a Board of Trustees (or other governing body) of any group whose essential membership is not selected by this Conference.

    4.   Tenure. No person elected by  the Annual Conference shall serve for more  than eight  (8) consecutive years from the date of his/her election on any organizational unit, or predecessor unit.  Following  any  service  of  eight  (8)  years,  there  shall  be  a  period of  at  least  two  (2) years before re-election to the same unit is possible. Persons elected shall serve until their successors are elected or appointed, even if this extends for a brief period the limit of their eight (8) year tenure.

      Exceptions to the rule of tenure are:      a.   the Board  of Ordained Ministry who  are  elected  and  serve,  in  accordance with  the 

current provisions of THE BOOK OF DISCIPLINE;      b.   The  Rules  of  Order  Committee  and  the  Conference  Facilitator  who  are  elected 

annually;      c.   Those units listed under Article III., Section C.4.E. Other Conference Organizational 

Units. On these agencies, their election procedures, tenure, etc. shall take precedence.    5.   Membership Restriction. A person shall not serve simultaneously as a member of more than 

one board. A Chair of any Conference board shall not serve on another Conference agency unless as an ex-officio member; exceptions could occur for missional reasons or when specific expertise is required by an agency. No person shall be elected to serve on an organizational unit  in more than one capacity. However, for a  limited time, persons who offer a specific missional value may serve  in an advisory capacity without vote on an organizational unit to which they have not been elected. If a person serving on a Conference unit is elected to serve on a Jurisdictional or General Conference agency that  is different  than the one they presently  serve  in  the Conference,  that  person may  relinquish membership on  the  former Annual Conference  unit  and  shall  become  a member  of  the Annual Conference  unit  that corresponds to the one served on a general church level.

    6.   Vacancies. In the event of a membership vacancy on any organizational unit, the chairperson of such unit shall be entitled to select a person to fill that vacancy for no longer than the current Conference year. Consultation with the Conference Nominating Committee chairperson will occur as this is done, and consideration of other general provisions will be kept in mind. The appropriate nominating body will then in due process act to fill the position that was vacated. Any person  selected  to fill  a vacancy  shall  be  eligible  for nomination and election at  the ensuing Annual Conference subject to the tenure rules. In the case of the Board of Ordained Ministry, if the remaining tenure of that vacancy was two years or less for a quadrennium, that time shall not apply to the tenure rule.

    7.   Chairpersons and Membership. Elections of Chairpersons and selection of members of Conference organizational units.

       Chairpersons and members of organizational units named herein, shall be nominated by the Conference Nominating Committee and elected by the Annual Conference.  

      Exceptions to this process are:        a.   Members and Chairs of Board of Ordained Ministry, Clergy Committee on Investigation, 

Joint  Committee  on  Review,  and  The  Conference Nominating  Committee who  are nominated by the Bishop/Cabinet and

        The following process shall be used:        1)   Organizational units under this process shall be all Area and Conference boards, 

Commissions, Committees,  the Conference Council on Ministries,  the Council on Finance and Administration, Conference Trustees (see above exception), and the Leadership Council.

        2)   Organizational  units  may  suggest  to  the  Conference  Nominating  Committee persons  to be  considered  for  nomination  as members  and  chairperson on  said unit.

        3)   Not later than March 15 in any year when a new Chairperson is to be selected (or  immediately  in  the event of a vacancy), a unit may advise  the Conference Nominating Committee  of one or more persons it would place in nomination for such office;

        4)   The  respective  organizational  units  shall  nominate  and  elect,  following  the Annual Conference election of their chairperson, such other officers as they deem helpful for doing their business. Such elections will occur at any regular or called meeting for such purpose keeping in mind that presently elected officers continue

until their successors are duly elected.        5)   While election of chairpersons and other officers may happen at any time, there 

is  a  historic  process  that  such  elections  shall  normally  occur  at  the  Annual Conference  of  the  year  when  General  Conference  convenes.  Potentially  this provides new leaders the training, which normally occurs following Jurisdictional Conferences.

        6)   Each organizational unit will be intentional in seeking a balance of 1/3 laymen, 1/3 laywomen, and 1/3 clergy and to be representative of age and racial/ethnic persons. The Conference Nominating Committee has the task of seeking these balances.

        7)   Any positions that are nominated by the Conference Nominating Committee and elected by the Annual Conference and are still open at the close of the Conference shall  be filled by  the Committee on Nominations  in  consultation as necessary with the Bishop, the Cabinet and/or the organizational unit affected. Any person selected to fill such an opening shall be eligible for nomination and election at the ensuing Annual Conference subject to tenure rules.

    8.   Executive Committees.  Unless  otherwise  prohibited  by  the  DISCIPLINE,  the  Annual Conference,  or  this  Plan  or  Organization,  a  duly  elected  executive  committee  of  any organizational unit is authorized to act between meetings on behalf of such unit to implement or effectuate policies and/or actions of the organizational unit.

F. Changes in the Plan of Organization    This Plan of Organization shall always be changed so as to conform to The Book of Discipline.     1.   By submission of a Petition to the Conference as provided for in the Rules of Order, or a 

Response Petition according to the same aforementioned process;    2.   Petitions  for a change  in  this Plan or Organization shall be  referred, first,  to  the Rules of 

Order committee for its comment and recommendation in writing; and, second, to the Annual Conference for its action as it is reported to the Conference.

    3.   When two thirds (2/3) of the members of the Conference present and voting, vote in favor of the amendment or change this Plan shall be so amended or changed.

II. DISTRICT  A.  District Conference    There shall be a District Conference on each district in the Annual Conference.    1.   It  shall meet  at  the  time  and  place  specified  by  the District  Superintendent with  at  least 

fourteen (14) days public notice    2.  Membership of the District Conference shall be:      a.   The following persons from each local church on the district:  all pastors; lay leader; 

president of  the United Methodist Women; president of  the United Methodist Men; chairperson of the Council on Ministries and/or Administrative Council; chairperson of the Finance Committee; church school superintendent; chairpersons of the Missions and Evangelism Work Areas; chairperson of  the Trustees; chairperson of  the Pastor Parish Relations Committee or Staff Parish Relations Committee; Lay Member(s) of the Annual Conference elected by the congregations of the district; and lay members of Annual Conference elected by district conference.

      b.   All  members  of  the  District  Council  on  Ministries  of  the  District  (see  Section  B following).

    3.   In  addition  to  such  items  as  shall  be  determined  by  the District  Conference,  Council  on Ministries, and/or the Superintendent as being necessarily a part of its order of business and rules of order, there shall be the following:

       The  District  Conference  shall  be  held  prior  to March  10th.  At  this  meeting  the  District Conference shall place on its agenda these items:

    2.   Each District shall develop those ministries it shall choose to under gird the ministries of the congregations within the district, and those given to it by the Annual Conference.

    5.   A district,  in  order  to  fulfill  the  responsibilities  above, must  have  control  over  allocation and use of funds for program purposes in that district. Such funds shall be made available as follows:

      a.   Through regular Annual Conference budgetary processes there shall be appropriated from  Annual  Conference  sources  to  each  District  Council  on  Ministries,  or  the equivalent, an annual operational sum.

      b.   The Annual Conference Council on Ministries shall determine annually what programs requested  by  the  Annual  Conference  are  appropriately  district  related.  They  shall provide  funds  to  the  respective District Councils on Ministries or  the equivalent,  to enable  these programs. This  statement  shall  be made  at  the  earliest  feasible date  to assist the District Councils on Ministries or the equivalent, in their ministries.

      c.   District Councils on Ministries or the equivalent, may have the option of submitting program and funding requests for ministries on that District to the Conference Council on Ministries for coordination, acceptance and implementation. Any funding requested of Conference monies, shall have been approved by the (1) District Conference, and (2) thereafter by the Annual Conference, including review by the Council on Finance and Administration, for continuation year after year.

III. ANNUAL CONFERENCE A. Standing Committees   The following shall be the Standing Committees of the Session of the Annual Conference: Agenda, Journal,

B. Conference Ministries:   Organizational units of our Conference are grouped with others doing similar kinds of  tasks and will 

function with a matrix style. We designate three such focuses of tasks:  •  Conference Council on Ministries: program tasks of the Conference;  •  Finance and Property Ministries: administrative tasks of the Conference; and,  •   Human  Resources  Ministries:  personnel  recruitment,  support  and  guidance  tasks  of  the 

Conference.   Those organizational units relating to the tasks of the Conference Council on Ministries have persons 

elected  to  represent  each  unit  on  the  Conference  Council  on Ministries.  These  organizational  units, while having their own identity, organization, and function as outlined below, may also meet with each other (as whole units, executive committees, or chairpersons) if they desire, to coordinate programming. The  Conference  Council  on  Ministries,  Chairpersons  of  units,  or  Conference  Staff  may  initiate such meetings.

   Organizational units  relating  to  the  tasks of Finance  and Property Ministries have  their  own  identity and will organize and function as outlined below. They are not required to meet with each other in the development of their work, but they may meet (as whole units, executive committees, or chairpersons), if  they  choose,  to  coordinate  programming.  Chairpersons  of  units  or  Conference  Staff  may  initiate such meetings.

  Organizational units will operate similarly under the tasks of Human Resources Ministries.

    1.  Organization     The  following  organizational  units  shall  have  membership  as  designated.  Unless  specified 

otherwise, all members shall be nominated by The Committee on Nominations and elected by the Annual Conference in accordance with provisions of this Plan of Organization.

      a.   Chairpersons  of  each  organizational  unit  (except  the  Chairpersons  of  Conference Council  on  Ministries,  Conference  Board  of  Lay  Ministries,  Conference  Council on  Finance  and Administration, Conference Board  of  Pension  and Health Benefits, Conference Board  of Ordained Ministry,  and  the Area Committee  on  Episcopacy), shall be nominated by in accordance with provisions of this Plan of Organization, and

      b.   Each organizational unit will itself elect a vice chairperson, secretary, and such other officers as it shall determine are needed following the election of the chairperson.

      c.   Each organizational unit shall determine its own internal organization with reference to  standing  committees  such  as  a  Nominating  Committee,  etc.,  subject  to  the DISCIPLINE. Chairpersons of standing committees and task forces shall be selected from  the  membership  of  the  agency,  unless  a  non-agency  member  is  approved  in advance by the agency chairperson.

      d.   Each organizational unit shall have the authority to enlist non-members of that agency in any of their sub-groups and/or task forces.

      e.   In order to provide continuity of leadership, a duly elected chairperson or other officer may  continue  on  that  agency,  at  the  discretion  of  the  organizational  unit,  until  the expiration of  that person’s  tenure even  though  the originating membership category (district representative, General Conference Board member, etc.) may change during that person’s tenure as an officer.

    2.  Meetings      a.   Each organizational unit shall meet at least once annually, and may meet more often to

“Have you not known? Have you not heard?

The Lord is the everlasting God, the creator of the ends of the earth.

He does not faint or grow weary; his understanding in unsearchable.

He gives power to the faint, and strengthens the powerless.

Even youths will faint and be weary, and the young will fall exhausted;

but those who wait for the Lord shall renew their strength, they shall mount up with wings like eagles, they shall run and not be weary, they shall walk and not faint.”

Isaiah 40:28-31
