CALL TO ORDER AND OPENING WORSHIP Bishop Bob Hoshibata called the 43rd session of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference to order with his “trusty” antique potato masher from Idaho. We then turned to Jeff Lowery, who led us in singing the traditional Wesley hymn, And Are We Yet Alive, followed by a time of worship, including an address by Bishop Hoshibata, with a time to proclaim loudly our belief that “God’s steadfast love endures forever!”

INTRODUCTION OF BISHOP INNIS Bishop Hoshibata introduced Bishop John Innis, our guest for the week and the preacher at Friday night’s worship service. Bishop Innis is the bishop of the Liberia Annual Conference, our partner conference in Africa. The visiting bishop spent much of the conference at the head platform, frequently offering prayer.

TIME TO GROW Todd Bartlett, Ken Thrasher, and Helen Ober showed a video about the amazing transformations that happen in people’s lives through camp and retreat ministry, and then outlined how the Time to Grow campaign offers the opportunity to expand and improve our already excellent ministry. Donations to Time to Grow will also be channeled into mission (through Gulfside Assembly in the U.S. and Camp Bob Buescher in Guatemala) and “foundation” (through the Northwest United Methodist Foundation). Helen is retiring from her role as co-chair of Time to Grow, but she introduced Ken Thrasher as the new co-chair. Jim Fellers and Richard Flanigan of the Gresham UMC presented to Ken a check for about $20,000, which is Gresham’s tithe to Time to Grow from a bequest recently received by the church.

Bishop Hoshibata asked Beverly Walker, the chair of the Task Force on Liberian Partnership, to introduce Irene Innis, the spouse of Bishop John Innis.

THIRD GC/JC BALLOT The third laity and clergy ballots were taken.

CONFERENCE LEADERSHIP PRESENTATION The presentation began with an inspiring video showing a year (525,600 minutes) of love in the life of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference, accompanied by a song sung by Kathy Boyes. After some rearranging of deck chairs, Kim Fields, Beth Estock, Donna Pritchard, and Cesie Delve Scheuermann reported on a year of change in Oregon-Idaho. Changes include 1) the district A2B’s have focused more time on leadership development and less on the routine administrative work of the district, 2) Pastoral Leadership Development groups have been established (next year this training program will include laity), and 3) the cabinet is learning new ways to work together in appointment-making. New church development is an ongoing challenge, but the team has made great strides in learning new insights this year—including the valuable experience that has resulted from closing the new church start effort in West Ada County, Idaho. Clergy-laity partnerships have been greatly enhanced over the past year—five of these (one per district) were celebrated at the fiesta dinner last night. The new Annual Conference Oversight Board (ACOB) is working hard to hold the Ministry Leadership Team (MLT) and the Cabinet accountable and focused on the mission. The MLT is committed to Ghandi’s idea that “You must be the change you want to see in the world.” The cabinet members have tried to “get out there” more in order to keep a balcony perspective on their ministry. Lynn Egli was introduced as a gift from the Holy Spirit; Lynn has recently retired and is now volunteering 20 hours a week as a Church Development Team staff member. Peg Lofsvold and Lowell Greathouse directed conference members in a time of Table Talk to share about the changes that are happening in local settings. Daily Proceedings 131

After Table Talk, Cesie delivered the Lay Leader’s Address with her usual grace, energy, and insights. She reminded us that the Holy Spirit is available as both cheerleader and coach. She closed with Psalm 40, a psalm of “pure joy,” and then led us in singing a new song!

REPORT OF BALLOT #3 Laity ballots cast: 190, valid ballots: 188. Number needed for election: 95. There was no lay election. Clergy ballots cast: 126, valid ballots 125. Number needed for election: 63. Laura Jaquith Bartlett was elected as the clergy delegate to General Conference and the first clergy delegate to Jurisdictional Conference. Laura will serve as the head of the delegation.

The fourth laity and clergy ballots were taken.

COUNCIL ON FINANCE AND ADMINISTRATION Ted Wimer acknowledged the members of the Council as well as the conference staff in the Office of Stewardship and Finance, and outlined the main tasks of CF&A. Ted pointed out that our Reserve Fund made a slight recovery in 2010, due at least in part to a number of austerity measurers. Forty-four percent of our churches were able to pay 100% of their apportionments in 2010. Ted shared that local churches can find their own record online through the OR-ID website.

Ted directed attention to the Unified Budget; he highlighted changes in the budget and answered questions in preparation for voting on the budget this afternoon.

REPORT OF BALLOT #4 Laity ballots cast: 239, valid ballots: 237. Number needed for election: 119. Jan Nelson was elected as the laity delegate to General Conference and the first laity delegate to Jurisdictional Conference.

Clergy ballots cast: 143, valid ballots 142. Number needed for election: 72. There was no clergy election.

The fifth laity and clergy ballots were taken.

EQUITABLE COMPENSATION John Grimsted reported on this year’s work of the Equitable Compensation Commission. John encouraged churches receiving equitable compensation support to contact the Commission if they would like to get help in crafting the salary package for their pastors. The commission is recommending a 2% increase this year. John moved the following: That $35,600 (for elders in full connection), $33,800 (for provisional members), and $32,000 (for local pastors). We strongly urge local churches to put at least $4,500 of that money in parsonage/utilities allowance (more if possible). In addition, the minimum salary package should be increased by $100 per year of service in the United Methodist Church, capped at a maximum of ten years or $1,000. The Commission also recommends, but cannot require, that business and professional expenses be set at no less than $3,000 per year. This represents a $300 increase over what this amount has been for many years. Housing is to be considered as part of the ministerial compensation package. Here is our recommendation for 2012-2013: For our purposes, every parsonage will be considered as meeting the minimum salary package. This is true whether the clergy is working full-time or part-time. That a percentage of housing allowance be paid to each pastor that is commensurate to the percentage they work (e.g. one quarter-time receives one quarter the housing allowance, one-half time receives one- half the housing allowance, etc.). In lieu of a parsonage, churches will pay a minimum housing allowance as part of the total compensation package. A two-tier formula will be applied consisting of $12,000 for most areas and $14,000 for 132 Daily Proceedings churches in areas with unusually high housing costs (so far this means only Portland). Tier designations will be determined by the Equitable Compensation Commission. These two tiers will be reviewed every two years. Appeals may be made to the Commission. Churches and pastors may apply for an exemption to housing allowances under certain conditions (for example, a pastor already has a home in the area, etc.). If the Commission does not grant an exemption, then churches must pay the housing portion of the ministerial compensation package. The Commission has requested that the Council on Finance and Administration set our budget for 2012 at $60,000, including $2,000 for the administrative costs of the Commission. This represents a decrease of $40,000 or 40%. Motion passed.

LEGISLATIVE ACTION We returned to our work on AR#11.

After considerable discussion, Matt Henry moved the question and all that is before us. Seconded. Motion passed.

Voting moved to the Weida amendment. Motion failed.

IMAGINE NO MALARIA Greg Nelson opened the presentation with this statement: “We used to say that a child dies of malaria in Africa every 30 seconds but we have now improved so that we can say a child dies of malaria every 45 seconds.” Greg showed a video that introduces a campaign that goes beyond Nothing But Nets to incorporate a broad program of education, prevention, treatment, and communication in order to completely eradicate malaria. The offering at tonight’s worship service will go to Imagine No Malaria, with half the funds earmarked specifically for Liberia. Greg, along with Karen Nelson, challenged conference members to hold church events and house parties to raise awareness and funds for Imagine No Malaria. The website is www.imaginenomalaria.org, with many resources, including ideas for how to host your own party.

HISTORICAL WESLEYAN QUESTIONS The candidates for full clergy membership and ordination were called forward, along with Phil Airhart (chair of the Board of Ordained Ministry) so that Bishop Hoshibata could ask them the traditional questions that we have inherited from John Wesley. Linda Freund (deacon in full connection) and Susan Boegli, Janine DeLaunay, and John Go (elders in full connection) answered each question appropriately.

WESTERN JURISDICTION REPORT Donna Pritchard, chair of the Western Jurisdiction Leadership Team, noted that the WJC has an excellent website: westernjurisdictionumc.org. Donna also serves on the newly formed Mission Cabinet, comprised of the bishops serving in the WJC, the Directors of Connectional Ministries in our jurisdiction, as well as Donna. The Mission Cabinet will be working on looking for ways that United Methodists in the West can work collaboratively on ministry and mission. Donna reminded us that, beginning September 1, 2012, the WJC will have one less active bishop. The plan, which has been developed by the College of Bishops, calls for a shared episcopal leader for Oregon-Idaho, Pacific Northwest, and Alaska. Donna stressed that there is nothing in the plan about merging annual conferences; there is no current plan to merge any of the annual conferences in the Jurisdiction. Lowell Greathouse is serving as the co-chair of the Episcopal Area Transition Team, which is working with a consultant to help all three conferences think strategically about how to best be in partnership as we share a bishop. The WJC Episcopacy Committee has the responsibility of assigning bishops to their episcopal areas. Laura Jaquith Bartlett and Greg Nelson are OR-ID’s representatives on this committee (and Greg serves as the chair). The Western Jurisdiction Conference session will be in July of 2012 in San Diego, CA.

Bishop Hoshibata reported on some of the ramifications of the shift. Beginning in July of 2012 there will be one less district for OR-ID; at the same time there will be added a general Assistant to the Bishop. We anticipate a possible reduction in the number of district offices, although at this time we do not yet know how we will accomplish the reduction in districts or district offices. A team is working on the details about this plan. The bishop then took questions about this plan.

BOARD OF PENSIONS Jamie Kienzle, chair of the Board of Pensions, directed attention to the BOP pre-conference report. He reported on some good news in the Clergy Wellness rewards program. There is also good news in health insurance: our active loss ratio for 2010 was 90% (the 2009 ratio was 116%)! Dann Houghton, recently retired clergy, challenged each person who is receiving a pension to make a one-time donation to the Central Conference Pension Initiative Fund sometime in the next three months (checks can be sent to the conference center). 134 Daily Proceedings

On Saturday members and many others from around the conference attended the “Change the World: 136 Daily Proceedings

Taking it Out There” training workshop led by Mike Slaughter. Persons who attended the workshop as a group were given the opportunity to debrief together following the conclusion of the training. Saturday afternoon’s Living the Connection Session #4 featured time to interact with those persons staffing the Ministry Marketplace booths.

The service of ordination took place Saturday evening at Salem First UMC, with preaching by the Rev. Christina Thompson.

The twelfth clergy ballot was taken.

CONFERENCE LEADERSHIP PRESENTATION Kim Fields opened with a video clip showing two persons “stuck” on an escalator that had stopped running. Kim compared their perceived helplessness to the situation in The United Methodist Church today. Then Kim reminded us of our new perspective: the annual conference itself is not called to make disciples, but the conference IS called to equip churches and leaders to make disciples for the transformation of the world. Toward that end, Kim described our new Vital Church Project, which has three components: Church Leadership Development, New Start Initiative, and Vitality “U.” Kim challenged us to embrace change and start walking up the escalator!

Peg Lofsvold and Lowell Greathouse directed conference members to take a few minutes to write down on cards the answers to these questions: 1) What have you seen at this Annual Conference that was worth remembering? and 2) What will you take home to your congregation? The cards were then collected to be given to the Ministry Leadership Team. Peg and Lowell led in small group discussions around tables, based on these two questions: 1) What change in your local church would be worth celebrating 525,600 minutes from now, when we gather at our next annual conference session? and 2) What will you see happening that will tell you—and your neighborhood—that you have accomplished this change?

REPORT OF BALLOT #12 Clergy ballots cast: 103, valid ballots 102. Number needed for election: 52. Scott Harkness was elected as the first Jurisdictional Conference reserve.

The thirteenth clergy ballot was taken.

MOTION TO SUSPEND RULES Kim moved the suspension of Conference Rule 2.300. Seconded. This rule dictates that the conference session will be held once per quadrennium within the bounds of the old Idaho conference. Kim outlined the situation: we could find no adequate, affordable meeting facility in order to conform to this rule in 2012, but there is an excellent facility available in Boise for 2013 (for less money than we pay in Salem, and less expensive hotel rooms!). Motion passed.

NOMINATIONS REPORT Daily Proceedings 137

The good people at Salem First UMC have hosted us well, and we express appreciation to them; we are also grateful for the hospitality provided by the staff of the Salem Conference Center. Bishop Hoshibata thanked Brett Strobel for serving as the coordinator for Saturday’s training event. Steve Mitchell and Mary Frances Gunn led us well at the Legislative Assembly and at annual conference. The bishop also thanked those at the head table: Paul Cosgrove, Wendy Woodworth, Laura Jaquith Bartlett, Cesie Delve Scheuermann, and Becky Delurey, who sits at the back of the platform but provides amazing support. The conference members offered a standing ovation to our tireless conference manager, Turella Woods. Thanks were also expressed to Dan and Karen Benson, conference youth coordinators, and to Daryl Blanksma, floor manager and to Karen Nelson (head teller) and her energetic crew of tellers—who had to distribute, collect, and then count the results of nine lay and 15 clergy ballots!

Elisa presented a bag of flour to Bishop Hoshibata as a symbol of the new life that has come from the grief of the church closure process.

INVITATION TO THE 2012 ANNUAL CONFERENCE Kate Conolly invited us back to the Western District for the next annual conference session, June 14-17, 2012.

ADJOURNMENT Laura Jaquith Bartlett, conference secretary, moved that the 43rd session of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference be adjourned sine die following worship; and that the daily proceedings of this Annual Conference be printed as the official minutes in theJournal, with such editorial corrections as are necessary. Seconded. Motion passed.

Conference members remained in the plenary space for a time of closing worship, designed by Dan Pitney and his worship team.

Motions passed.

THE NETWORK Gary Powell, chair of The Network, reported that The Network was created by the 2007 Clergy Session, with four broad mandates: 1) to develop and fund a program of offerings for continuing education in accordance with the Annual Conference vision and focus, 2) to build a clergy culture where good morale and wellness flourish, 3) to foster the sharing of experience and expertise in ministry, and 4) to provide forums for ongoing dialogue about healthy ways to live out our mutual convenatn for collegiality and accountability Members include the chairs of the Orders of Elders and Deacons, and the Fellowship of Local Pastors and Associate Members, along with representative of the BOM, the bishop, clergy and laity. Currently, there are several vacancies, and Gary senses a need to re-define the original vision of The Network. Although the group did not meet this past year, Gary plans to work with the bishop over the summer to shape a new direction for The Network.

FELLOWSHIP OF LOCAL PASTORS AND ASSOCIATE MEMBERS Linda Quanstrom gave a report as the chair of the Fellowship of Local Pastors and Associate Members.

ORDER OF DEACONS Ann Bateman and Joyce Sluss, co-chairs of the Order, offered a video report depicting just a few of the ways that members of the Order of Deacons serve as “bridges” between the church and the community.

ORDER OF ELDERS Thom Larson reported as the chair of the Order of Elders. Peg Lofsvold has retired as the co-chair of the Order. Thom presented the Board of Ordained Ministry’s nominee to be co-chair, April Hall Cutting.

GC#9 Update Civil Equal Rights, Par. 162J Sponsor: Oregon-Idaho Reconciling United Methodists; Oregon-Idaho Methodist Federation for Social Action; Jan Nelson Adopted. Amend ¶162J as follows: Equal Rights regardless of Sexual Orientation—Certain basic human rights and civil liberties are due all persons. We are committed to supporting those rights and liberties for all persons, regardless of sexual orientation. We see a clear issue of justice in protecting the rightful claims where people have shared material resources, pensions, guardian relationships, mutual powers of attorney, civil marriage, civil unions, and other such lawful claims attendant to contractual relationships including that involve shared contributions, responsibilities, and liabilities, and equal protection before the law. Moreover, we support efforts to stop violence and other forms of coercion against all persons, regardless of sexual orientation. GC#11 Remove discrimination from paragraph 161F Sponsor: Oregon-Idaho Rreconciling United Methodists, Oregon-Idaho Methodist Federation for Social Action, Deborah Maria Adopted. Amend ¶161F as follows: F) Human Sexuality—We affirm that sexuality is God’s good gift to all persons. We call everyone to responsible stewardship of this sacred gift. Although all persons are sexual beings whether or not they are married, sexual relations are affirmed only with the covenant of monogamous, heterosexual marriage. We deplore all forms of the commercialization, abuse, and exploitation of sex. We call for strict global enforcement of laws prohibiting the sexual exploitation of children and for adequate protection, guidance, and counseling for abused children. All persons, regardless of age, gender, marital status, or sexual orien- tation, are entitled to have their human and civil rights ensured and to be protected against violence. The Church should support the family in providing age-appropriate education regarding sexuality to children, youth, and adults. We affirm that all persons are individuals of sacred worth, created in the image of God. All persons need the ministry of the Church in their struggles for human fulfillment, as well as the spiritual and emotional care of a fellowship that enables reconciling relationships with God, with others, and with self. The United Methodist Church does not condone the practice of homosexuality and consider this practice incompatible with Christian teaching. We affirm that God’s grace is available to all. We will seek to live together in Christian community, welcoming, forgiving, and loving one another, as Christ has loved and accepted us. We implore families and churches not to reject or condemn lesbian and gay members and friends. We commit ourselves to be in ministry for and with all persons. GC#13 Delete Prohibition of Celebrations of Homosexual Unions Par. 341.6 Sponsor: Oregon-Idaho Reconciling United Methodists; Oregon-Idaho Methodist Federation for Social Action; Dave Bean Adopted. Amend ¶341.6 of the Book of Discipline as follows: 6. Ceremonies that celebrate homosexual unions shall not be conducted by our ministers and shall not be conducted in our churches.

1. BAN ON TORTURE (2008, 2011) Sponsor: Methodist Federation for Social Action We support a ban on torture in any form by the U.S. government, its agencies, agents, military or the use of non-U.S. government entities to torture on its behalf.

2. CALL TO CIVILITY (2010) Sponsor: Methodist Federation For Social Action “Civility is more than a rule for polite conduct. It is a way of life formed around values that unite rather than divide.” These words of Will Rogers are no less true today than when he said them during the Great Depression. In today’s highly polarized cultural environment, incivility has become systemic, spreading corrosively like a cancer in our communities, our nation and the body politic. As Persons of faith it is our 150 Actions & Resolutions individual as well as corporate responsibility to call for and to embody the civility reflective of the gospel values that unite us. Therefore, we call upon all United Methodists, clergy, and laity, to act as agents of peace, tolerance and mutual respect of all persons. Further, every United Methodist is called upon to challenge with civility those persons and media who promote hate, fear, misinformation and lies. Civility is the currency of civilization, of community. Civility is not an issue of ideology or political affiliation, it is an issue at the core of our gospel faith.

3. CAPITAL PUNISHMENT (1980, 1982, Revised 1986, 1989, 1990, 1993, Revised 1996, 1999, 2002, Revised 2005, 2008, revised 2011) Sponsor: Methodist Federation for Social Action The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference, continuing its witness since 1980 and in harmony with the historic position of our United Methodist Church, reaffirms its opposition to the death penalty, and urges all members of the Conference to actively oppose capital punishment in the states of Oregon and Idaho. Our position is based on our understanding of justice in the teachings of Jesus, and is supported by studies indicating that the death penalty is not a deterrent to murder, and that the penalty is imposed almost entirely on those unable to pay for an adequate defense. We regard the deliberate taking of life as profoundly incompatible with the Gospel’s core teaching of love, mercy and forgiveness. As United Methodists, who have long preached and practiced a social gospel, we are deeply troubled by the fact that the death penalty is imposed disproportionately often on the poor and on members of minority groups. We also believe the unacceptably high error rates in death penalty cases demonstrate that the state is making God-like decisions without God-like powers. Our faith persuades us that there is an image of God in everyone, that each of us is better than the worst thing we have ever done, and that repentance and rehabilitation is always possible. We encourage action for alternatives to the death penalty, such as those proposed in Oregon by “Oregonians for Alternatives to the Death Penalty,” www.oadp.org; PO Box 361, Portland, OR 97207- 0361). In Idaho information can be obtained from the Oregon website or from www.deathpenaltyinfo. org.

4. CHILDREN OF SAME-GENDER RELATIONSHIPS (2007, 2010) Sponsor: University Park UMC, Morningside UMC, Oregon-Idaho Reconciling United Methodists The 2000 Census established that same-gender couples are raising children in 96% of all counties in The United States. Children of same-gender parents often experience economic, legal, and familial insecurity when their bonds to non-biological parents are not legally recognized. Moreover, legal recognition of same-gender relationships increases the ability of adult couples to provide and care for one another and fosters a nurturing and secure environment for their children. Because scientific data overwhelmingly demonstrates that there is no relationship between the sexual orientation of parents and any measure of children’s emotional, psychosocial, and behavioral adjustment [Pediatrics, July 2006]; and because The United Methodist Church believes “the family to be the basic human community through which persons are nurtured and sustained in mutual love, responsibility, respect, and fidelity” [Paragraph 161A, page 99, 2004 Discipline]; and because The United Methodist Church “encourage[s] social, economic, and religious efforts to maintain and strengthen relationships within families” [Paragraph 161A, page 99, 2004 Discipline]; we conclude that civil marriage, civil unions, and legally recognized domestic partner- ships are beneficial to children, regardless of the gender of the parents, because they strengthen families and help foster financial and legal security, psychological and social stability, and an enhanced sense of societal acceptance and support. We support efforts to legally recognize same-gender relationships and claim that laws which ban the legal recognition of same-gender relationships actively harm the health and well-being of children all over the nation. Actions & Resolutions 151

5. CLOSE SCHOOL OF THE AMERICAS (Revised 2003, Renewed 2006, Renewed 2009) Sponsor: Conference Witness Team Continue to support the endeavor to close the Western Hemispheric Institute for Security Cooperation (formerly School of the Americas or SOA) located on the U.S. Army Base at Fort Benning, Georgia. The SOA trains Latin American personnel in inhumane, oppressive tactics such as torture, assassination and kidnapping, to control their populations. This resolution is consistent with the Social Principles, which clearly oppose the kinds of actions taken by graduates of the Western Hemispheric Institute for Security Cooperation (WHISC). Congregations and individuals are encouraged to bring this matter to the attention of the membership with appropriate action, especially expressing their will to the President and Members of Congress.

6. COMMUNITY-BASED CORRECTIONS (1982, 1986, 1989, 1992, Revised 1995, 1998, 2001, Revised 2004, Revised 2007, 2010) As Christians we believe in the redemptive potential of all people. Therefore, we urge members of the churches within the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference to join with others of like mind in helping the correction systems of Oregon and Idaho in the use of community-based restitution, work programs, and other alternatives aimed at rehabilitation of those who have been convicted of crimes. We further encourage members, when necessary, to actively seek to change regulations which impede or restrict development and placement of such facilities or programs. Remembering the words of Jesus, “I was in prison and you visited me,” (Matt. 25:36) we encourage pastors and lay persons in our congregations to visit and/or minister to persons in correctional institutions, and where possible, upon their release from prison, to assist them in their re-entry into local communities, by helping them secure jobs and housing and inviting them into the fellowship of the church. We also urge congregations to identify and support families of these who have or have had members incarcerated in correctional institutions. We commend the work of organizations such as the Center for Dispute Resolution of the Willamette University College of Law, the Victim Offender Reconciliation Program/Community Mediation Service and the Alternatives to Violence Project. We encourage our churches to seek out ways to actively support and/or establish these services in their communities.

COMPREHENSIVE NUCLEAR WEAPONS FREE WORLD (1993, Revised 1994, Revised 1997, Revised 2000, Revised 2004, Revised 2007, Revised 2010) Be it resolved: That the Oregon Idaho Annual Conference call upon its United Methodist members to advocate for and to continue to call for legislation to ratify the Strategic Arms Reduction Treaty (START), and to contact members of the U.S. Senate and urge them to ratify the Comprehensive Test Ban Treaty (CTBT). The United Nations will convene a Non-Proliferation Treaty (NPT) Review Conference in May 2010. We affirm the prophetic position of our bishops in their 2009 foundation document and statement in God’s Renewed Creation: Call to Hope and Action: “We persist in demanding that the major nuclear powers reduce their arsenals, step by verifiable step, making a way to a more secure world totally disarmed for nuclear weapons.”

8. CONFRONTING HETEROSEXISM (2010) Sponsor: Oregon-Idaho Reconciling United Methodists In communities of transition, the local church shall be regarded as a principal base of mission from which structures of society shall be confronted, evangelization shall occur, and a principal witness to the chang- ing community shall be realized. [Paragraph 212.2] Many of our local churches and the communities they serve are facing transition and have a need to be open to change. Churches that discriminate against gay men, lesbians, bisexual & transgender people re- pel many youth/young adults, limiting the evangelistic ministry of churches in transitional communities. Each local church is called to confront unjust heterosexist structures, and to embrace people long told they are not welcome at church. Together we witness God’s inclusive love for all people. 152 Actions & Resolutions

CONSUMER RIGHTS IN HEALTH CARE (1996, Revised 1999, 2002, Revised 2005, Revised 2008, revised 2011) Sponsor: 2011 Revision sponsored by Methodist Federation for Social Action The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference, in harmony with the Social Principles of the United Methodist Church, believes in health care as a basic human right. We believe it is the responsibility of individuals to live healthy life-styles and the shared responsibility of society to ensure affordable access to health care for all persons. We believe that health care must be accessible to every person, inclusive of every person, affordable to every person, and of the highest possible quality. We support the work of organizations at the state and national levels to achieve these goals. We encourage all members of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference to become educated about these issues and organizations: - General Board of Church and Society (Health Care): http://www.umc-gbcs.org - Faithful Reform in Health Care: http://www.faithfulreform.org - Families USA: http://www.familiesusa.org - Universal Health Care Action Network: http://www.uhcan.org - Idaho Community Action Network: http://www.idahocan.org - Oregon Health Action Campaign: http://www.ohac.org

10. CUBA EMBARGO (1995, Revised 1998, 2001, Revised 2004, Updated and Rewritten 2007, 2010) We continue to call for our Government to lift the Cuban embargo and seek to resume better diplomatic relations with Cuba, and that we encourage individual members of all churches within the conference to urge their U.S. Congressional Representatives to work for legislation to lift this embargo.

11. EMBRACING THE SOJOURNER (2007) Sponsor: Methodist Federation for Social Action; OR-ID Hispanic Ministry Training Institute We propose that the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference and its congregations study and call upon local and state governments to enforce fair and just immigration policies that will protect the rights and well being of all immigrants in our midst, and that they promote educational resources in local churches to help members advocate for the same.

12. GLOBAL WARMING/CLIMATE CHANGE (2005, revised 2008, revised 2011) 2011 Revision Sponsor: Methodist Federation for Social Action We resolve to take positive action to curb emissions which may contribute to global warming. As stewards of God’s creation we acknowledge our way of living, specifically our use of energy, creates emissions that warm the planet and threaten all life. We resolve to support the creation of laws and policies that will lead to decreases in the dangerous emissions that threaten our planet. We encourage members to take simple steps to reduce greenhouse gas emission by driving conscientiously by conserving energy in homes and workplaces and by using alternative energy sources whenever possible. We recognize that the global climate is already changing, and stand ready to participate in the church’s response to the likely increase in weather-related disasters. We urge local ministry settings and members to be better stewards of the world’s resources by conserving energy. More information and resources are available from the United Methodist General Board of Church and Society, Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon, the National Council of Churches, and Oregon PeaceWorks to assist us in conversation and provide us with information for action

13. GUN VIOLENCE AND CHILD PROTECTION (2001, 2004, Revised 2007, Revised 2010) We propose that the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference stand in public witness against gun violence in the towns, cities and rural areas in Oregon and Idaho and across the United States. We call upon our churches Actions & Resolutions 153 and upon individuals to join in a national commitment against gun violence in America so that children can play in their yards and walk to school without fear, by taking some or all of the following actions: • Support common sense gun safety, and gun safety education measures by participating with their respective member of Congress in expressing the need for legislative action on gun measures protecting their children. • Remove handguns and automatic weapons from their home if at all possible, and provide adequate locked gun cabinet storage. • Foster a climate of nonviolent conflict resolution in their home, children’s school, congregations and community. • Monitor the television programs their children/youth watch; monitor how they use the internet, use of violent video games, and educate themselves regarding rating systems. • Focus public attention on child gun deaths. Talk about this crisis in church; lift up the names of children/youth in the community killed by gun violence; contact the media; and above all, talk with their children/youth. • Research community needs, provide children/youth with alternatives to violence so they can be safe and protected.

16. MIDDLE EAST CONFLICTS (2007, revised 2009) The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference resolves to: Pray for the military personnel and their families who have sacrificed as a result of the conflicts in the Middle East, including Iraq, Afghanistan and Gaza, and for a swift end to the destructions and violence that war rages within this area of the world, Support withdrawal of all troops and bases from the Middle East, Support the call for the United Nations to appoint a Peace Envoy to encourage and cooperate in talks to explore a political settlement to all Middle East conflicts, and Call for multinational support for regionally generated plans to rebuild the Middle East, including Iraq, Afghanistan and the Gaza area as well as other Middle Eastern Nations. Urge the churches in our conference to study the causes of war and the ways of Biblical and just peacemaking. Links to curricula will be made available on the conference website. Encourage churches and persons to spend time in prayer and meditation, to discover ways to be peacemakers and discover ways to help bring peace and reconciliation to the nation of Iraq and throughout the Middle East. We would also urge our churches to seek ways to advocate for peace in Iraq with our national leaders, and to help our nation bring our troops home at the earliest time possible.

17. NATIONAL FAIR TRADE POLICY (2009) Sponsor: Methdoist Federation for Social Action We propose that the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church support a national policy of “Fair Trade” with foreign nations for all trade agreements. Further, we support the renegotiation of all existing “Free Trade” agreements to reflect Fair Trade practices and principles. Accordingly, we call for the Conference Witness Team to annually notify each Oregon and Idaho United States Congressperson of our support of this action and that the Bishop be a signatory of this annual notification.

18. NATIONAL HEALTH CARE REFORM (2010) Sponsor: Methodist Federation for Social Action The health care system in the United States is predominantly provided through for-profit insurance companies whose annual rates rise dramatically, whose incentive is to provide the least care for the maximum profit, and who leave a staggering number of persons without health care. According to widely published reports, our health care system costs each person nearly twice as much as any other nation while delivering lower quality outcomes. Accordingly our current health care delivery system is incompatible with United Methodist understanding of the Gospel as expressed in our Social Principles. Paragraph 162V (of the 2008 Book of Discipline) declares that health care is a “basic human right” and that the “government has a responsibility to provide all citizens with health care.” Therefore, the OR-ID Annual Conference supports Healthcare being available to all persons of all ages to provide comprehensive care (including vision and dental). Such a system is inclusive, effective, and affordable, equitable and secure and reflects our UM Social Principles.

19. OPEN MEMBERSHIP (2007, 2010) Sponsor: University Park United Methodist Church The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference expects and encourages its congregations and clergy to abide by the principle: Membership in any local church in the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference shall not be denied on the basis of race, color, age, national origin, economic condition, gender, marital status, sexual orientation, gender identity, mental or physical ability, or any other status.

20. PLANETARY STEWARDSHIP (2011) Sponsor: Planet Church Committee Members at Portland First United Methodist Church Whereas, our planet with its life-nourishing balance of water, air, nutrients and climate is a precious gift and sacred trust from our Creator and whereas climate scientists continue to warn with increasing urgency that we humans are inflicting dangerous damage to this gift, - being virtually unanimous in their peer reviewed reports saying that continuing growth of green house gas emissions is pushing our planet toward catastrophic climate change; Whereas, the human produced emissions are coming mainly from the developed countries and wealthier peoples, while it is the less developed countries and peoples living in poverty who are least able to cope with resulting droughts, floods, growing food shortages, rising sea levels and other extreme weather events; Whereas, in many places population growth itself continues to stress our planet as a driver of climate change, food shortages and rapid species loss, while it is widely forecast that business as usual during the next 40 years will add another 2 billion people to our planet; Therefore, be it resolved that, as people of faith living in one of the world’s wealthiest nations, our responsibilities include answering the call to planetary stewardship by; • Adopting science based lifestyle changes and policies that will reduce human produced greenhouse gases; • Promoting policies that reduce human population growth to sustainable levels; • Assisting the globe’s most vulnerable populations to adapt to climate change. So may we move toward humanity’s reconciliation with this awesome God-given life-sustaining place called earth.

21. PRE-EMPTIVE NUCLEAR STRIKES -- OPPOSITION TO (2003, revised 2006, revised 2009) Let me hear what God the Lord will speak, for God will speak peace . . .Psalm 85 The United Methodist Church has continually reaffirmed its unequivocal stand against the use of nuclear weapons and has affirmed the Council of Bishops’ statement (in their document In Defense of Creation, The Nuclear Crisis and a Just Peace, “We say a clear and unconditional NO to nuclear war and to any use of nuclear weapons. We conclude that nuclear deterrence is a position that cannot receive the church’s blessing.” The United Methodist Church in the 2008 Book of Resolutions affirms its stand against “first strike policy” in the following resolution: “We call upon all nations that possess nuclear weapons to renounce these vile instruments of mass destruction and to move expeditiously to dismantle all nuclear warheads and delivery vehicles. As a first step, we support all movement to ban the ‘first strike’ policy from all North Atlantic Treaty Organization (NATO) doctrine.” As members of The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church, we affirm and commit ourselves to actively support the efforts of the Council of Bishops of the United Methodist Church as well as the denomination’s general boards and agencies and other organizations and individuals within both religious and secular communities who are speaking in opposition to the use of preemptive nuclear strikes. We call on all political leaders throughout the world to work with the international community, especially the United Nations, to end the prospect of the use of preemptive nuclear strikes for any reason by any nation state in the world.

22. PREGNANCY AND FAMILY PLANNING, CONTINUE SUPPORT OF RIGHT OF CHOICE (1988, 1991, 1994, Revised 1997, Revised 2000, Revised 2003, Renewed 2006, Renewed 2009) Sponsor: Conference Witness Team We move that the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference continue its long-standing support with the General Board of Church and Society and the Women’s Division of the Board of Global Ministries of the UMC, as well as the more than 30 organizations representing many of the mainline denominations and faith groups in the United States, in taking the position in favor of a woman’s right of choice regarding pregnancy and family planning, including the right to terminate pregnancy as guaranteed by the Supreme Court decision of Roe v. Wade, 1973. It is important that the UMC maintain its position of openness and 156 Actions & Resolutions respect for the moral agency of women, as reflected in our Social Principles: “In continuity with past Christian teaching, we recognize tragic conflicts of life with life that may justify abortion, and in such cases, support the legal option of abortion under proper medical procedures.”

23. REJECTION OF WAR AS FOREIGN POLICY (2005, revised 2008, revised 2011) Sponsor: Methodist Federation for Social Action, OR-ID Chapter 2011 Revision Sponsor: MFSA WHEREAS, the Social Principles of the United Methodist Church (para. 165c) declare, “We believe war is incompatible with the teachings and example of Christ. We therefore reject war as an instrument of foreign policy, to be employed only as a last resort in the prevention of such evils as genocide, brutal suppression of human rights and unprovoked international aggression. We insist that the first moral duty of all nations is to resolve by peaceful means every dispute that arises among them…” THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, that the Oregon-Idaho Conference of the United Methodist Church affirms its commitment to paragraph 165c of the Social Principles of the United Methodist Church, declaring the policy of using the military might of the United States as an instrument of foreign policy to be incompatible with the Social Principles, calling on the current administration to cease and to desist from this policy, to exercise restraint in its disputes with other nations and “to seek to resolve by peaceful means every dispute that arises…” BE IT FURTHER RESOLVED, that we call upon the laity and clergy of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference to be actively involved in efforts for peace through the local church and in the connectional life of the United Methodist Church, by being in touch with their Representatives and Senators, through public venues such as newspapers, periodicals and the venues offered by the internet, by praying daily for peace in our world, and through other opportunities as they arise.

24. SEEKING PEACE AND JUSTICE IN THE HOLY LAND (2007, Revised 2010) Sponsor: Methodist Federation for Social Action; Active for Peace and Justice (Corvallis First UMC) What does the Lord require of you but to do justice, and to love kindness and to walk humbly with your God. Micah 6:8 Truly I tell you, just as you did it to the least of these who are the members of my family you did it to me. Matthew 25:40. WHEREAS, we affirm Israel’s right to exist within permanent, recognized and secure borders, and affirm Palestinians’ rights to self-determination and formation of a viable state with secure borders and air space, water rights, and passage rights to the land in their state, whether it is through a one-state or two- state solution, WHEREAS, the General Conference in 2004 and again in 2008 resolved that, “The United Methodist Church opposes continued military occupation of the West Bank, Gaza, and East Jerusalem, the confiscation of Palestinian land and water resources, the destruction of Palestinian homes, the continued building of illegal Jewish settlements, and any vision of a ‘Greater Israel’ that includes the occupied territories and the whole of Jerusalem and its surroundings.” [Book of Resolutions, 2008, Para. 6073, pg. 833], and WHEREAS, we are called to support members of Christ’s church around the world, including Palestinian Christians who are being forced to leave the Holy Land due to Israel’s confiscation of their property and the severe hardships of living under occupation, and WHEREAS, the illegal destruction of Palestinian homes and economy, the confiscation of Palestinian land, and the loss of Palestinian lives, primarily innocent children and civilians, are made possible by the use of armored bulldozers, helicopters, gunship’s, tanks and other equipment supplied to Israel; while the destruction of Israeli property, violence, and loss of innocent Israeli lives are made possible by the use of mortars, guns and bombs supplied to Palestinians; thereby creates harm on both sides from complex and simple weapons, equipment, and supplies provided by national and multinational corporations that profit from such deadly activities, and WHEREAS, the Kairos Palestine Document was issued by 16 Palestinian Christian leaders in Bethlehem Actions & Resolutions 157 on December 11, 2009 (and now signed by over 1200 Palestinian Christians) and calls on churches of the world “to take a position of truth with regard to Israel’s occupation of Palestinian land. …We see boycott and disinvestment as tools of non-violence for justice, peace and security for all. ... We repeat once again that this is not revenge but rather a serious action in order to reach a just and definitive peace that will put an end to Israeli occupation of Palestinian and other Arab territories and will guarantee security and peace for all.” [Kairos Palestine Document, December 11, 2009, #6.3 and 7. and http://www.oikoumene. org/fileadmin/files/wcc-main/2009pdfs/Kairos%20Palestine_En.pdf ] WHEREAS, the United Methodist Church should not profit from the illegal Israeli occupation of Palestinian land or the destruction of Palestinian homes, orchards, and lives, and is committed to ensuring that our Church’s finances are used in a manner consistent with Christ’s teaching, our beliefs, and international law. The Investment Ethics resolution states our policy on “Avoidance by Divestment”: “This policy prohibits investment in enterprises that have policies or practices that are so morally reprehensible that investment in these companies is not tolerated by the church. …Historically many church investors have refused to invest in major military contractors, companies with nuclear weapons contracts, or companies when they were doing business in South Africa under apartheid, [Book of Resolutions, Para. 4071, pg. 592], THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference call upon local churches, the Oregon-Idaho Board of Pensions, the Oregon-Idaho Conference, the North West UM Foundation, the Oregon-Idaho United Methodist Ministers Retirement Fund and all others in the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference who invest UM funds to identify the companies that profit from sales of products or services that cause harm to Palestinians or Israelis using the report ‘Companies Supporting the Israeli Occupation of Palestinian Land, October 2009” by the New England United Methodist Divestment Task Force (www. interfaithpeaceinitiative.com/profiting.pdf), and to divest from these companies.

25. A STATEMENT OF CONVICTION (2011) Sponsor: OR-ID Reconciling United Methodists; OR-ID MFSA; Marcia Hauer; Administrative Council of University Park United Methodist Church Out of concern for the welfare of all God’s people, and out of special concern for the people of The United Methodist Church, we, the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference, believe The United Methodist Church should remove the following statement from The Book of Discipline (2008): “…The practice of homosexuality is incompatible with Christian teaching. Therefore self-avowed practicing homosexuals are not to be certified as candidates, ordained as ministers, or appointed to serve in The United Methodist Church.” ¶304.3 Our lives and ministries over the years have included prayerful, thoughtful consideration of our Holy Bible, our Wesleyan heritage, reflection on our experience of the church and world, and our conviction of God’s intention for a world transformed. With this statement of conviction and counsel we seek: • To affirm that the historic tests of “gifts and evidence of God’s grace” for ordained ministry override any past or present temporal restrictions such as race, gender, ethnicity, or sexual orientation. • To urge the Church, ecumenical and denominational, to change the manner in which it relates to gay, lesbian and transgendered persons in official statements, judicial proceedings, and in congregational life. • To declare our conviction that the current disciplinary position of The United Methodist Church, a part of our historical development, need not, and should not, be embraced as the faithful position for the future. • To make known our conviction on this matter and to encourage other church conferences to do the same. With increasing frequency we observe and experience the following disturbing realities and know them to be detrimental to the mission of a Church of Jesus Christ: • Laity and clergy, gay and straight, withdrawing membership or absenting themselves from the support of congregational and denominational Church life in order to maintain personal integrity. 158 Actions & Resolutions

• Young adults, especially, embarrassed to invite friends and expressing dismay at the unwillingness of our United Methodist Church to alter an exclusionary stance adopted in 1972, long before we came to know of the gifts and graces of lesbian and gay laity and clergy. • Closeted pastors, currently called and ordained in our church, living divided lives while offering effective appreciated ministry. • Bishops being drained of energy by upholding Church Discipline while regarding it as contrary to their convictions. • Bishops caught between care for the Church by reappointing an effective gay or lesbian pastor and care for the Discipline by charging them under current legislation. • Seminary leaders desiring greater flexibility and openness from the church in order to advance their mission of identifying, recruiting, enrolling, educating and spiritually forming Christian leaders. • Christian gay men and lesbian women understanding themselves called of God to seek ministry opportunities within their United Methodist family Church home, but having to decide between: o leaving to go to accepting denominations, or o staying and praying for change, or o challenging Church law and accepting punitive actions. Our United Methodist Church, ashamed and repentant in the past, ended official and unofficial restrictions on candidacy, ordination and appointment for reason of race, gender and ethnicity. We believe the God we know in Jesus is leading us to issue this counsel and call – a call to transform our church life and our world.

26. STRENGTHENING RELATIONSHIPS WITH NATIVE AMERICANS AND ALASKA NATIVES (2011) Sponsor: Council on Native American Ministries Whereas The United Methodist Church adopted Resolution 3322 (Confession to Native Americans) in 1992 and readopted the same in 2004 and 2008 recognizing the worth and dignity of all persons and respecting the Native American people, culture and religious practices, and Whereas The United Methodist Church adopted Resolution #121 (Healing Relationships with Indigenous Persons) in 2000, readopted as Resolution 133 in 2004, and revised and readopted as Resolution 3323 in 2008 that recognized that the history of Christianity’ s spread across the world often accompanied by actions which damaged the culture, life, ways and spirituality of indigenous persons, and Whereas Resolution 3323 directs the 2012 General Conference of the The United Methodist Church to hold an Act of Repentance Service for Healing of Relationships with Indigenous Persons which would launch study, dialogue, and acts of repentance in all conferences over the following quadrennium Therefore, Native American Ministries will begin the conversation in the Oregon Idaho Conference in 2011-2012 by providing guidance and partnering with congregations, conference history and archives and United Methodist Women in study and dialogue regarding Native American issues and actions to involve Native Americans in spiritual journeys within the conference.

27. SUPPORT COMPREHENSIVE IMMIGRATION REFORM (2010) Sponsor: MFSA and Conference Hispanic Ministries Council 1) The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference supports comprehensive immigration reform by the U.S. Congress consistent with the Council of Bishops “Statement on the U.S. Immigration Situation” (May 2009) that would: • Provide a pathway to citizenship for immigrants • Unite, instead of divide, immigrant families • Increase the number of visas for short-term workers • Extend legal protection and human rights to all workers including immigrants •Eliminate privately operated detention facilities not regulated by federal or state governments • End all indiscriminate raids. 2) Churches are encouraged to engage in ministries of mercy and justice with immigrants such as Bible studies and worship in indigenous languages, pastoral care for immigrants, sanctuary for undocumented immigrants, English as a Second Language classes, and other forms of education that help immigrants experience abundant life.

28. SUPPORT THE ABOLITION OF HUMAN TRAFFICKING (2009) Sponsor: MFSA & Active for Peace & Justice Group at Corvallis 1st United Methodist 1. The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church supports the abolition of the modern slave trade, or human trafficking as it is called now, that is happening in Oregon and Idaho, in the U.S. and worldwide. 2. The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church urges all local churches to participate in the new 2009-2012 quadrennium study of “Abolition of Sex Trafficking,” as approved and recorded in the General Conference 2008 Book of Resolutions. (p 733) 3. After study, dialogue, and prayer, the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church will then discern if it will join the call of the Greater New Jersey Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church for “all of the Annual Conferences of the UMC to declare themselves Abolitionist Conferences.” In June 2007 the Greater New Jersey AC “declared itself to be an ‘Abolitionist Conference’ opposed to all forms of slavery and committed to its elimination from the earth.” (see Not For Sale Abolitionist Church Handbook, p 26, www.notforsalecampaign.org )

29. UNITED NATIONS SUPPORT (1993, Revised 1997, Revised 2000, Revised 2003, 2006, 2009) Sponsor: Conference Witness Team In concert with the statements of the General Church (see ¶165D, 2008 Book of Discipline), we the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference believe that our Christian faith compels us to work for justice and peace throughout our global community, recognizing the inherent dignity of all God’s people. We support the unprecedented cooperation of the vast majority of the countries of the world to solve international problems of health, education, and the welfare of people through the United Nations and its specialized agencies. Therefore, the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church reaffirms its commitment to the United Nations as an instrument of peace in the building and maintaining of a just and stable world. We affirm our support for our United Methodist presence in programs of the United Nations (including UNICEF). We support the active participation of United Methodists in the NGO (Non Governmental Organizations) network uniquely afforded through the United Methodist Office for the United Nations, located across the street from the United Nations. We urge the U.S. government to become current in paying its dues. (The US debt to the UN in both the regular and peacekeeping budgets exceeded $1.5 billion at the start of 2009. The largest amount is for peacekeeping --$1.3 billion.) We encourage local churches to observe United Nations Sunday in our local churches and to become more involved in the programs of the United Nations such as the United Methodist Seminars on National and International Affairs.

30. WE WILL NOT DISCRIMINATE (2010) Sponsor: Sweet Home United Methodist Church Adult Sunday School When our predecessors framed The United Methodist Church, they built the characteristic of Inclusiveness into our church constitution. Later General Conferences specified that “Inclusiveness means openness, acceptance, and support that enables all persons to participate in the life of the church, the community and the world; therefore, inclusiveness denies every semblance of discrimination,” and adding that “the mark of an inclusive society is one in which all persons are open, welcoming, fully accepting, and supportive of all other persons, enabling them to participate fully in the life of the church, the community and the world.” [Paragraph 139, 2008 Discipline] There are those in our worldwide church who have argued that non-heterosexuals should be excluded. Some people have promoted legislation that gay men and lesbians should be imprisoned or killed for loving each other. We now must speak out, before God, the church and the world, to insist that this is wrong. We therefore admonish members and clergy of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference to safeguard the constitutional requirement of inclusiveness, avoiding “every semblance of discrimination” as we represent the church and administer its business. We can do no less. 160 Business of the Annual Conference The Business of the Annual Conference The Minutes of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference Held at Salem Conference Center in Salem, Oregon, from June 16 through June 19, 2011 Bishop Robert Hoshibata, Presiding Date When Organized: 1969 Number of This Session: 43

Chatter about the need for “paradigm-shifting” change has been rumbling around our conference for a number of years. But in the last two years we moved from talk to action! What began as a study of our conference budget as a mission document evolved into a full-blown assessment of the annual conference’s role in moving the Oregon-Idaho United Methodist connection towards effective disciple- making/world-transforming ministry in the 21st century – a ministry best accomplished by local churches in their communities. Guided by books such as J. Russell Crabtree’s Fly In the Ointment: Why Denominations Aren’t Helping Their Congregations and How They Can and Paul D. Borden’s Hit The Bullseye: How Denominations Can Aim Congregations at the Mission Field, a new vision for conference leadership began to emerge and take shape.

The clarified commitment to growing “healthy, vital congregations” led to some major and bold steps being presented to and adopted by the 2010 Session of the Annual Conference. One of those bold steps was a reconfiguration of the conference leadership structure. Conference rules that defined the nature and make up of the Conference Leadership Team were suspended for two years to allow experimentation with two new bodies: the Ministry Leadership Team (MLT) assigned with the responsibility for ministry, and the Annual Conference Oversight Board (ACOB) given the role of governance and accountability.

This is the report of the Ministry Leadership Team, which has met monthly under the leadership of Bishop Hoshibata.

Created with the expectation to actually “get things done” on the Mission and Vision of the Conference, the Ministry Leadership Team is comprised mostly of conference staff: Conference Lay Leader, Cesie Delve Scheuermann; Conference Communications Director, Greg Nelson; Executive Director of Camp and Retreat Ministries, Lisa Jean Hoefner; Director of New Faith Communities, Beth Estock; Director of Stewardship & Finance, Bill Mullette-Bauer; General Assistant to the Bishop, Scott Harkness; and the five district Assistants to the Bishop – Donna Pritchard, Kim Fields, Kate Conolly, Steve Ross and Lowell Greathouse.

Our first order of business was to fully grasp the vision of healthy, vital congregations, to set priorities and to determine first steps. Last July, less than a month after our 2010 Session, the MLT sponsored a workshop that featured the Rev. Bob Farr, the Missouri Annual Conference staff person that oversees their Healthy Church Initiative (HCI). Joined at the workshop by other leaders of our conference and districts, the MLT became convinced that the Healthy Church Initiative offered a model that would transform our annual conference. We made a decision then and there to take Missouri’s HCI for a trial run in our conference. In September, a team of five people attended an HCI training in St. Louis and we returned with the confidence to launch three pilot groups for pastors throughout our annual conference using the curriculum and reading list developed in the Missouri Conference. The first pilot group of 10 pastors from the Central and Snake River Districts began their eight-month course in October. In January, a pilot group of 16 pastors from the Metro and Western Districts began meeting and a week later a pilot group of eight Southern District pastors started the same eight-month course. Two Assistants to the Bishop lead each group so they will have firsthand experience with the course. Upon completion of these classes, the curriculum will be evaluated and re-written to fit the Oregon-Idaho context, a new round of leadership groups for clergy and laity will be formed this fall, and persons from the pilot groups will be invited to be the next generation of leaders – a process that is already underway.

Three of the A2B’s and two laypersons participated on Church Consultation teams in Missouri in March. They returned as witnesses to the transforming effect that this weekend “diagnosis-and- prescription” event has on a congregation and its leaders. A weekend Consultation is a culminating event Reports 179 for those churches whose leaders have participated in the leadership development course. It is often the precipitating event for lasting change in a congregation and is a key component of our Healthy, Vital Church Initiative.

What we call the Healthy, Vital Church Initiative (HVCI) has become a primary driver of the MLT’s work this year. Add to it the other primary drivers, the New Start Initiative (NSI) managed by the conference Church Development Team (look for their report elsewhere in the Journal), and the general continuing education initiative we’ve nicknamed Vitality U. and you have the main components of a conference vision that the MLT has labeled: THE VITAL CHURCH PROJECT… revitalization through leadership development and starting new faith communities. This is the star around which our efforts now orbit.

An unexpected turn of events has led to the difficult decision to eliminate the GeneralAssistant to the Bishop position on July 1st due to budget constraints. And this has led many people to wonder how the conference intends to keep its momentum into the vision of healthy vital congregations with one fewer Assistant to the Bishop. While details are still being figured out, some general decisions have been made about the major parts of Scott Harkness’ portfolio, which will be parceled out to the other Assistants to the Bishop…

The role of Director of Connectional Ministries (DCM) will be filled by Lowell Greathouse who, as our conference DCM, will sit at jurisdictional and denominational tables. Steve Ross will administrate the Healthy, Vital Church Initiative process with Gwen Drake, who will organize the coaching aspects of the HVCI. Eventually, Steve will act as “dean” of Vitality U. when it is developed. Kim Fields will pick up various administrative tasks related to Scott’s job, e.g., chairing the conference nominating committee, providing staff support to the legislative assembly, overseeing the annual Collins Foundation Grant process, etc. Kate Conolly, who will become the dean of the cabinet in July, will concentrate on personnel matters.

As the MLT looks forward in the months to come, they hope to be ready this fall to roll out an innovative process of congregational self-assessment, providing new reference tools for measuring and benchmarking a congregation’s priorities and plans, along with a redesigned church profile form. We will also focus on coaching and the many ways it can be used in our conference for transformation and growth.

Finally, we are working diligently to understand and develop a healthy relationship with the new Annual Conference Oversight Board - making the distinction between governance and ministry, holding ourselves accountable to the conference Mission/Vision, learning how to be realistic about those things that will make a real difference and to be transparent in our efforts to pursue them.

Annual Conference Oversight Board Cesie Delve Scheuermann, Chair

During the 2010 Annual Conference Session, legislation was adopted to suspend rules that establish the Conference Leadership Team for two years. In its place, the “Annual Conference Oversight Board” (ACOB) was formed. Action Request #12 created the ACOB and charged it with the responsibility of “holding the Ministry Leadership Team accountable to the vision and strategic direction of the Annual Conference.” The ACOB membership consists of:

Conference Lay Leader: Cesie Delve Scheuermann District Lay Leaders: Carole Sullivan, David Armstrong, Norm Dyer, Mary Foote, and Lisa Radford At-Large Lay Persons: Trudy Pollard, Jeff Grimm, Robert Potter, Deb Payne, and Laila Umpleby.

Much of this first year has been spent becoming aware of and grounded in the work of theAnnual 180 Reports Conference and Ministry Leadership Team. The ACOB began its work by reading two books that informed much of the vision of the MLT: The Fly in the Ointment: Why Denominations aren’t Helping the Congregations and…How they Can (J. Russell Crabtree) and Hit the Bullseye: How Denominations Can Aim the Congregation at the Mission Field (Paul Borden).

After an all-day joint meeting with the MLT in October, the ACOB began meeting once a month via teleconferencing. During these meetings, we reviewed the minutes of the previous MLT meetings and hosted a “guest” from the MLT in order to better understand its work.

Most recently, the MLT and ACOB met together in May to discuss Winning on Purpose: How to Organize Congregations to Succeed in Their Mission by John Edmund Kaiser. Both groups will be soon reading and discussing a book on a similar topic by Dan Hotchkiss, Governance and Ministry: Rethinking Board Leadership. This will undoubtedly help the ACOB enter into the next phase of its work by providing a road map to appropriately and helpfully guide the work of the MLT.

The members of the ACOB have felt privileged to have this opportunity to be at the forefront of an exciting and revitalizing time in the life of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference. We believe that God is indeed in the midst of our work. Even though change can be slow and painful, we are confident the rewards will bear much fruit in our local congregations. Praise be to God!

Board of Camp and Retreat Ministries Rev. Bill Gates, Chair

Camp and Retreat Ministries of this Conference continues to move faithfully in its mission of Christian discipleship. These are among our board’s priorities and a sample of how they are being worked out in the mission field of our communities.

Focus on spiritual practices: Set in the mystical beauty of God’s creation our ministries engage pilgrims from all ages and walks of life in the great spiritual practices of our faith tradition. Passionate worship, intentional faith development, and radical hospitality are among those taught and practiced. We offer over 120 events that intentionally engage leadership development, spiritual nurture, just community, and pathways of healing.

Addressing Culture Shifts in our communities: In his book, Recreating the Church: Leadership for the Postmodern Age, Richard Hamm writes about the ‘perfect storm’ that has confronted the mainline church in recent decades. He identifies the triple threat of culture shifts (modern to postmodern), obsolete organizational forms inherited from earlier times, and the resulting fear “that has turned us inward toward maintenance and survival rather than mission.” We continue to address these culture shifts head- on. Speaking the language of today’s children, youth and young adults we support local congregations through Confirmation Weekend, winter retreat weekends, leadership councils, Youth 2011 promotion, and youth leadership training. Google ads have recently replaced newspaper ads in promotion strategy to wider audiences. Cooperative camping programs with the Episcopal Diocese of Oregon have created opportunities to reach ethnic youth. Our day camps in southern Oregon communities are assisting with outreach to children in those towns. And our multi-generational camps continue to provide a relational link that our hyper-consuming, rapid-paced culture threatens to leave in the dust. As our culture continues to shift generationally, ethnically, and economically, our mission remains constant and unchanging. How we carry out that mission will continue to shift with the tides.

Strengthening the relationship between local congregations and Camp and Retreat Ministries: In the non-profit world, where Camp and Retreat Ministries and our local congregations both hold a place, it is easy to get wrapped up in the drive for “success.” Numbers and statistics and money often tend to be the drivers of our decisions unless we remember that it is “faithfulness” and not success that is central to our existence. Our mission for Camp and Retreat Ministries is clear: We are dedicated to creating quality environments of Christian hospitality and learning. We nurture persons so that they may: Grow in wisdom and healthy self-esteem; Develop lifestyles of loving interdependence with each other Reports 181 and all of creation; Affirm and expand their faith in God and their service as Christian disciples within God’s world. It is the faithful relationship with local congregations that makes this mission so rich and meaningful.

Attending to Financial Sustainability: Funding our missional work with an eye on sustainability has required a constant vigilance of policy and opportunity. We continue to work toward efficiency in scheduling and equity in fee structuring with the faithfulness of our mission in mind. The Time to Grow campaign is also beginning to bear fruit in preparing us for a bright future. This year we have constructed 2 two-bedroom yurts at Wallowa Lake, a year-round showerhouse has been framed in at Suttle Lake, renovations to cabins have been completed at Magruder, with plans being made for a new office and small group meeting space at Sawtooth.

Nurture Team Jill Plant, Chair

The Nurture Team encompasses Worship, Christian Education, and Spiritual Formation. The Team did not meet in person this year, but kept in contact by email to make decisions on the distribution of Christian Education Sunday Funds. Cooperation with the Oregon-Idaho Christian Educators Fellowship has brought national workshops and networking to the conference. We will continue to pursue these avenues to provide conference members with training, information and support. We are also working on placing support materials on the conference website, including links to the Global Board of Discipleship resources.

Thank you to all of the congregations who gave offerings on Christian Education Sunday in September. We received $2,374.49 from 19 congregations in the Conference. We continue to communicate not only the importance of this offering, but also the availability of grants for local churches in our conference for Christian Education programs because of these funds. Some of the grants given in 2010/2011 include: funding for young adults to attend the National Camp Leaders Training ($1350); for Sharon Gutierrez to attend the 2010 Impact Conference ($119); and partial funding for the Adult Spiritual Formation Training held at Montavilla UMC (up to $2000).

United Methodist Volunteers In Mission Brenda St. Clair, Chair

“Christian Love in Action” is the United Methodist Volunteers In Mission (UMVIM) theme. Fifteen teams from the Oregon-Idaho Conference demonstrated this theme in 2010. Teams served internationally in Peru, Bolivia, Chile, Mexico, Brazil, Kenya, Guatemala and Haiti. A couple of teams worked at the UMCOR Depot in Salt Lake City, UT and a team went to the UMCOR Depot in Baldwin, LA. Teams also served in Lewis County, WA and New Orleans, LA. There was an individual who shared love and skills as a Primetimer in Albuquerque, NM and a couple spent several months in Peru and Bolivia as Individual Volunteers In Mission working and receiving teams to further the progress of that mission.

With earthquakes in Haiti, Chile and Guatemala, there was great need for support in the form of extra hands, financial support, loving and nurturing. UMVIMers are a tremendous resource for those things plus much more! UMVIMers would not be able to be as effective as they are without the support of our local churches. Thank you to everyone who donates and lifts our individuals and teams in prayer during their mission experiences!

“Christian Love in Action” is alive and well in the Oregon-Idaho Conference. 182 Reports Oregon-Idaho Partnership Task Force with the Partnership with Liberia Beverly J. Walker, Chair

We have a committed group of people who serve on the Partnership Task Force with Liberia. These people meet one or two times a year and pay their own expenses for our meeting. Other decisions are made by phone calls and email during the year.

Our Task Force Members are: Larry Calkins, Jim & Rinya Frisbie, Gbayou Garmondeh, Geraldine Hammond, Verna Harelson, Sandy Harland, Linda Hurley, Rochelle Killett, Jackee & Larry Mehl, Steve Mitchell, Tom & Corinne Tate, Colleen & Dick Todd, and Joe & Beverly Walker.

We are pleased that Bishop John G. Innis will be at our Annual Conference this year. John has visited our Conference and met many of our Conference members in their local churches. John’s wife, Irene, will be with him. We are so glad that the two of them will be with us and will to get to know Oregon-Idaho!

We will have a dinner on Saturday afternoon and John & Irene will be speaking. They will be able to tell us how things are going in Liberia now and how important Volunteers-In-Mission Teams will be warmly greeted at Camphor Mission School.

We will be selling our Liberia Task Force Pins to raise money for scholarships for students to attend Camphor Mission. If you want to help raise money before Annual Conference, please contact Beverly Walker by phone or e-mail and she will send some pins for you to sell in your local church. Or maybe you would want to sell them in August just before school starts here in Oregon and Idaho, but school will also start in Liberia! We have funds to send for this year and next year, but we have to raise money for future years!

Camphor Mission School has gotten the attention of the United Methodist Volunteers in Mission community and there have been several long-term volunteers that have been at Camphor Mission School. Kathy & Danny Dickriede are taking a UMVIM Team to Camphor Mission School in Late June. They will have a team of 10 persons and then another six people after that. Cecilia Cephas is the new director for the school. She came in mid-March. There is a long-term volunteer, Lindsey Brown, that has been there since January and will be there until sometime this summer. Her blog, http://inpursuitofhisglory. blogspot.com/ can be accessed on the Internet. The new business manager, Obediah Dehwain, was a former teacher at Camphor Mission School. The school is going strong and any assistance for scholarships is appreciated!

We hope to have another team from Oregon-Idaho in the next few years!

Witness Ministries Team April Hall Cutting, Chair

With the loss of Conference funding, the Witness team did not meet in person this year but via conference call and email communication. We are grateful for the resources of the Peace with Justice offering fund that we continued to administer. With a smaller team, we are reevaluating our role in raising the voice of justice as the Annual Conference structure changes.

We continue to provide copies of the UM Social Principles at events and encourage local churches and clergy to engage with the Principles. We work collaboratively with the Methodist Federation for Social Action and the Reconciling Ministries network on legislative issues, tracking the AC Standing Resolutions and discerning new areas of work.

We welcome Claudia Roberts as the new Peace with Justice Coordinator for the Conference. She is a respected voice in our midst and looking forward to stepping into the job with her unique gifts. Reports 183 This winter, Peace with Justice funds provided travel for the Rev. Eilidh Lowery to attend the Young Clergy Forum of the General Board of Church and Society. PWJ also awarded two $500 mini grants – one to the Salem Peace Mosaic project (see www.salempeacemosaic.org) and one for a speaker at Oregon State United Campus ministry seminar titled “Addicted to Failure: The US Drug War Policy in the Americas” that was held on April 18, 2011. Check the conference website or contact Claudia Roberts to apply for these funds, supported by our annual Special Sunday offerings.

Hispanic-Latino Ministries Council Vera A. Kenyon, chair

This past year since Annual Conference a year ago has been very challenging. While we have been successful in creating an awareness of, and interest in ministering to our Hispanic/Latino brothers and sisters our budget was cut and will be again this coming year due to the lack of apportionment support. In an effort to make up for the lost funds an anonymous donor assisted us with the expenses so we could appeal to each congregation within the Oregon-Idaho conference to fulfill their HispanicAskings. Some of you were able to do so 100% and some of you were able to send at least a portion of the asking. For your support we are very grateful. As we face the reality that funding is not adequate for us to provide the programming we have done previously we are saddened and challenged.

Another loss is the resignation of Rev. Ron Whitlatch who has been our Conference Director of Hispanic/Latino Ministries and Director of the Hispanic Ministries Training Institute. Rev. Whitlatch and his wife, Cathy, are both GBGM missionaries and will be in New York City beginning in June. We are so very grateful for the leadership Ron has been able to provide us during the past three years.

At this writing we do not know how we will be able to provide the trainings and assistance at the level Rev. Whitlatch provided, but your conference council is working hard to be able to assist you. We are currently in consultation with Rev. Pat Bruns and Dionicio Salazar from GBGM in writing a grant which is matchable with your Askings gifts and will assist us in continuing programming for you.

While I have reported the bad news there certainly is good news too, for which we praise God. We anticipate announcing at Annual Conference a new Hispanic UMC congregation! In addition, Mira Conklin and her husband, Rev. Eric Conklin, continue their work in developing a Hispanic ministry in Cornelius, Oregon. They are working with others in their area to expand this ministry in neighboring UMC’s. Juanita Villarreal, Beaverton UMC, is conducting a Bible study at the church on Sundays as well as reaching out into the community. She has worked with several within her congregation to establish a Hispanic Resource Center which opened this spring and is extremely busy serving families. An ESL class has also begun at their church. Hillsboro is just completing its fourth year offering a very successful ESL program and beginning to offer faith-based activities. There are many other churches within our conference who are offering ESL courses in their communities. This is a great first step to reach out to others and get them into worship settings.

Rev. Jorge Rodriguez, a team of his laity from his Wilder mission church, and Rev. Al Trachsel are beginning a ministry in Caldwell, Idaho. This is an exciting and energetic ministry which will spread and grow through the area and beyond. During this past year a mix of youth and adults have formed a praise band and are assisting in the worship services. They are currently conducting Home Bible studies in Wilder, Homedale, Parma, Caldwell, and Boise. The Hispanic congregation in Wilder continues to grow and flourish.

Western District, Metro District and the Lower Snake River area of the Snake River District each have councils who are actively working with local churches assisting as they can to reach out to our Hispanic brothers and sisters. If you would like to become involved with one of these councils or start one in your area, we are happy to help. Check your Conference Journal for contact names and numbers. 184 Reports Committee On Native American Ministry Eva Johnson, Chair

The Committee on Native American Ministry (CONAM) has been active in this conference for over 25 years. When I become a committee member Carol Youngbird-Holt was the chairperson. Her love and commitment was ministering with Native people. Our CONAM committee is small and unknown to many in the conference, but I believe we continue that same love and commitment that Pastor Carol had.

A brief description of CONAM activities in 2010-2011 is shared. We continue our support of two summer camps, Hawtnin Weetes Hallowed Ground Culture Camp at Wallowa Lake and Huckleberry Family at Camp Magruder; we made a financial contribution to the Sierra Service Project who built wheelchair ramps for seniors on the Fort Hall Indian Reservation in Idaho; we sponsored a young person to attend a Leadership Academy/Family Camp and supported a committee member who is attending classes to become a Deacon.

Two committee members attended the Native American International Caucus/NAIC conference to learn about issues and advocate for Native people in North, Central, and South America and we make a yearly contribution to the Carol Youngbird-Holt Scholarship. CONAM received a $2,000 Zimmerman grant for a Native Woman’s Wellness Day in Portland with a follow-up presentation to Native youth promoting a healthy summer through nutritious snacks and Native dancing.

CONAM would like to thank individuals who contributed to Native American Awareness Sunday. The money is divided -- 50% remains in the conference to support CONAM actions and 50% is sent to the General Council on Finance and Administration. Two major uses of the national Funds are a) support scholarships for Native Americans attending United Methodist schools of theology and b) expansion/ support of Native American Urban Ministries programs throughout the United States. Wilshire United Methodist Native American Fellowship, Portland received a grant in 2003. CONAM asks that all churches in our conference promote and observe Native American Sunday, May 8, 2011 but can be celebrated at anytime. Free resources are available at www.umcgiving.org/NAMS or request guest speakers by contacting Cheryl Bittle or Eva Johnson, in the conference directory. Future plans are to concentrate on camping ministry with Native youths so they may experience the presence of God outdoors and in worship.

Campus Ministries and Higher Education Team Dan Thompson-Aue, Chair

The work of this group continues to be informed by these convictions:

Campus Ministry programs in Oregon and Idaho impact hundreds of lives in the name of Jesus Christ. Stories of life-changing experiences, spiritual growth, and leadership emergence abound, reminding us of the missional nature and effectiveness of these programs. As they nurture and support students and empower them for important roles in the church, they also challenge universities, churches and the culture at large to aspire to a just and peaceful world.

Supporting Campus Ministries is crucial to the growth and vitality of God’s church in the world. Campus Ministries actively develop and support growth strategies for the church in our region, effectively implementing the Strategic Direction priorities of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference. Failure to prioritize and support them would not only jeopardize the Conference’s Strategic Direction, but also compromise opportunities to inspire and shape the lives of the church’s future leaders at a critical time.

Last year we identified these goals and activities as vital to support of our Campus Ministries, and can report some progress on each, as follows: a. Designing and maintaining such Annual Conference administrative structure as is needed to support collaboration, cooperation, and collegiality among Conference Campus Ministry leaders and programs. Reports 185 We have agreed, as a team, that our existence matters. We are in the process of changing our function from a group distributing Conference funds to one that informs, empowers, and gives relational and spiritual support to our Campus Ministry programs. b. Prioritizing the building of a strong culture of awareness, ownership, and support for Campus Ministry programs in local congregations and communities of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference.

We have made limited progress on this one, but will seek ways to provide effective support for ownership, awareness, and support in the coming year as our team reorganizes for its new functions. c. Resourcing of local Campus Ministry boards through provision of grant funds and identification of resource persons to develop and redevelop local board structures and strategies.

We hope to have designed an effective process for providing local campus ministry board development grants by the beginning of this 2011 Annual Conference session. These grant allocations will be available to those Campus Ministries historically supported by the Oregon-Idaho Conference. Application for funds must be completed by the beginning of the 2012 Annual Conference session. d. Assigning advocacy roles for Campus Ministries to District Leadership Teams and/or Assistants to the Bishop.

We hope this advisement will be acted upon by the Ministry Leadership Team and/or District Leadership Teams.

In addition, this team will continue to facilitate the awarding of the several college scholarships to deserving students.

We covet your continuing prayers and active support for Campus Ministries and Higher Education.

Commission on Religion and Race John Go, chair During 2010 to 2011 CORR has been in transition in terms of leadership and finding resources to continue its ministry advocating for racial/ethnic justice, reconciliation and inclusiveness in the church and in society.

In response to Arizona SB1070, the General Church CORR calls upon all United Methodist Churches to denounce and oppose the rise of xenophobic, racist, and violent reactions against migrants in the United States, and to support all efforts to build relationships between diverse ethnicities and cultures. Meantime, we have signed on to endorse the ‘Drop the I-Word campaign,’ which helps to eliminate the racially derogatory term, “illegals” from use within the church, popular usage and public discourse and to choose instead to use language that affirms the inherent worth of all people in the eyes of God. More information will be provided at our Marketplace display at Annual Conference 2011. The following GCORR webpage, http://www.gcorr.org also provides a way to support this campaign.

From the fall of 2010 to spring 2011, GCORR and the leadership of the CORRs from many Annual Conferences have been gathering in online workshops to rebuild a connection and provide a leadership manual to each Annual Conference. Last February, CORR chairs and COSROW (Commission on the Status and Role of Women) chairs from each Annual Conference also had an online workshop in Texas about a “monitoring program,” which our Annual Conference may adopt as a model in the near future.

The CORR in Oregon-Idaho is in the process of building a way to communicate more effectively, so that we may also build up our team-work to provide solid action throughout the Annual Conference fighting against racial prejudice and discrimination, as well as creating and healing relationships between communities in the name of Jesus Christ. Prayerfully, we hope to work actively with local churches to adopt and create programs that respond to our call to serve in the CORR ministry. 186 Reports Commission on the Status and Role of Women Lynda Montgomery, Chair

The ministry of the Commission on the Status and Role of Women (COSROW) is the full and equal responsibility and participation of women in the total life of the church and society. The need for the Commission is affirmed inThe Book of Discipline. The tasks of the Conference Commission are: • to be informed about the status and role of women in the total life of the church, • to work cooperatively with United Methodist Women to achieve full participation of women • in the decision-making structures, • to develop ways to inform and sensitize the leadership within the conference on issues that • affect women, and • to focus on major issues related to women which may include, but are not limited to, sexual harassment policies and procedures. The Oregon-Idaho Conference Commission is committed to fulfilling these responsibilities. Annually, the Commission monitors the plenary sessions of the Annual Conference to track participation by male and female, clergy and lay designations.

Lay Leader’s Report Cesie Delve Scheuermann “I prayed for twenty years and received no answer until I prayed with my legs.” Frederick Douglass, freed slave

We have often used the image of the ocean liner to describe our annual conference. We use this visual aide to remind us that, unlike a speedboat, a big, huge, hulking, massive piece of steel takes a lot longer to turn around than a nimble and lightweight boat with an external motor. For years (maybe decades?) we wrung our hands because our numbers were declining and our churches lost their vitality. There were undoubtedly many prayers lifted up. But just like Fredrick Douglass observed – in the last two years, “our prayers have legs.” We have been working hard to turn the ocean liner around and although it’s not fast enough for most of us, we are beginning to see glimpses of a culture shift throughout our Annual Conference.

For another year, I have had the very real privilege of representing the laity on the Ministry Leadership Team. The work has been diligent and focused on seeing health and vitality in all of our churches, no matter the size or geographical location. Many new things are been bubbling up as a result.

Each District has played a role in this new way of looking at ourselves. The laity, along with the clergy, have also played an enormous role in this gradual shift. The work that they (you) have been doing has been significant. For example, the Western District hosted a number of leadership development and skill- building seminars during the year. Most notably, Reggie McNeal, the author of Missional Renaissance, spoke to over 125 people about the church as a verb and being “the people of God partnering with Him in His redemptive mission in the world.”

The Southern District offered an exciting enrichment event, “Takin’ it to the Streets,” with the provocative subtitle, “God is active in our communities. Are we?” Peter Nathan from Portland and Mark McMurray of Vancouver, Washington inspired 160 attendees with evidence of the many creative ways God works in and through ordinary individuals to touch lives in Jesus’ name. Because of their geographical proximity, the Metro District hosted a number of half-day workshops focusing on leadership development and gaining a greater understanding of the changes that are happening in the Annual Conference.

Each of these events yielded new insights and excitement on ways to change the world as the people of God. These are just a few of the ways that we are responding to a changing world. These are indeed signs that our “prayers do have legs.” Once again, thank you for allowing me to be a part of this exciting time in the life of the Annual Conference. God is indeed good…all the time! Reports 187 Conference Youth Ministry Report Dan Benson, Conference Youth Coordinator

I begin by thanking the many churches that have responded positively in supporting Conference Youth Ministry through Conference Askings, as our operations are no longer a part of the Annual Conference budget. Your generosity has been an important part of the sharing of the gospel with youth and in strengthening leaders to be more effective in their work.

We also credit the District Youth Coordinators and District Youth Councils for preparing and leading powerful youth retreats. And we are thankful for the work of the Camp and Retreat Ministries that provide excellent spiritual development for youth in transforming ways.

The work of the Conference Youth Ministry Team has been to find ways to focus upon the strengths that already exist within our Conference and to build upon them. Our goals are to promote communication and connection for those who are involved in working with youth in United Methodist settings, and to promote outreach to youth not yet connected with the church.

To this end, we have been working on gathering and compiling the contact information of all active youth groups within our conference, as well as contact information for the churches without youth groups that they may find ways of interacting with other groups. Also, towards this end, there has been some collaboration between area groups that has formed through the desire of the leaders, other collaboration has been necessary due to the numbers youth in the churches, and finally other groups are being helped to identify partners in their area with whom they might work for mutual benefit.

United Methodist Women Carol Johnson, Conference President

United Methodist Women (UMW), Oregon-Idaho Conference, have had an excellent year. Once again the 2010 Schools of Christian Mission were excellent. Our geographic study of Sudan was particularly timely. We had over 20 first-time attendees and are looking forward to the 2011 Schools with the topics of “Reconciliation: Coming out on the Side of Grace,” “Haiti Mission Study,” and “Joy to the World: Mission in the Age of Global Christianity.”

Our Annual Meeting in October 2010 featured a visit with Missionary Janice McLain and a Skype conversation with UMCOR. The reaction to both of these well-done presentations was very favorable.

In November the 2010 Zimmerman Trust Grant administered by the Oregon-Idaho Conference UMW sponsored a highly successful Native American Wellness Day along with a follow-up session in March 2011. Additionally the recipients of the 2010 Charter for Racial Justice Recognition Award, also sponsored by the Conference UMW, were Mira and Eric Conklin along with the Cornelius United Methodist Church congregation for the important work they have done in establishing and supporting racially diverse church services. In March 2011 we sponsored our Legislative Education Event with a large group of men and women meeting in Salem, visiting the capitol and their legislators. On May 21, 2011, we are sponsoring a Young Women’s Event to be held at Aldersgate Retreat Center in Turner. Oregon.

We are looking forward to our 2011 Annual Meeting and are inviting all women of the church to join us at Hillsboro United Methodist Church on October 22. It will be a party with the theme of “Celebrating Creativity.” We expect to have special music, dancing, balloons and all the other things you associate with a party!

We continue to follow our purpose with a new logo and tag line saying, “Faith, Hope, Love in Action” to guide us in our work in bettering the well-being of women, children and youth both in our own neighborhoods and also throughout the world. With God’s help we will continue in these endeavors. 188 Reports Young Adult Ministries Eilidh Lowery, Conference Young Adult Coordinator

The young adult ministry team this year has focused on creating a support network for young clergy, helping nominate young adults for the legislative assembly, and working with leadership from the Annual Conference Sessions team to create informal activities for young adults at annual conference.

The centerpiece of our focus on young clergy networking was a retreat at Camp Magruder in February focused on spiritual renewal and deepening our collegial relationships. We plan to hold another retreat in 2012. The efforts to find young adults to serve on the Legislative Assembly and to provide a little bit of coordination for activities at conference provide a voice for young adults and a way for young adults to connect with one another.

We continue to also offer the Young Adult Ministry Mentor program, which works with churches that are passionate and interested in young adults and help them with all the knowledge we have been able to acquire at various trainings over the years and with our own perspectives as young (or youngish) adults. We have not worked with any churches this year.

Board of Ordained Ministry Philip J. Airhart, Chair

The mission of the Board is to provide excellent ministerial leadership for the church so that we might boldly make disciples of Jesus Christ, revitalize the church and transform the world.

The Board of Ordained Ministry is responsible to the Annual Conference for overseeing the enlistment, certification, and theological education of candidates for ministry through the work of the District Committees on Ordained Ministry; to examine candidates for fitness, readiness and effectiveness for ministry; to train and provide mentors and residency experiences for candidates for ministry; to recommend approval to the clergy session the licensing of local pastors, commissioning of provisional members, and ordination and full membership of deacons and elders; to provide continuing education and other support for clergy; to recommend to the clergy session approval for individuals to take leave of absence, return from leave, retirement, and other changes in status; and to monitor the well-being of the clergy so that the work of Jesus Christ through the local church may be faithfully fulfilled (¶635).

As of this writing, the Board is composed of 25 members: 12 elders in full connection, including one Assistant to the Bishop; 4 deacons in full connection; 2 associate members; and 7 lay persons. The member directory and other information about the Conference Board of Ordained Ministry can be found using the links from the Conference website.

We are committed to aligning our work with the conference strategic direction in light of our Disciplinary requirements and budget constraints. Our primary focus has been on the missional priority to encourage excellence in lay and clergy leadership. We understand that calling forth effectiveness and excellence in our clergy promotes excellence in our laity and effectiveness in the ministry of our local churches. To that end the Board of Ordained Ministry is working with the Cabinet to determine standards of effectiveness and excellence, and ineffectiveness in ministry. To help us recognize, affirm and develop our ministerial candidates’ spiritual gifts for leadership some of our requirements for residency, evaluation, and interview processes for commissioning and ordination are undergoing significant change. Members of the Board of Ordained Ministry interviewed a class of five applicants for commissioning or ordination this past January, and we will be recommending that the clergy session approve one candidate for provisional membership as an elder, one candidate for full membership as a deacon, and three candidates for full membership as an elder.

Members of the Board of Ordained Ministry continue to count it a privilege to serve the Annual Conference in this significant aspect of our life together. Reports 189 Commission on Equitable Compensation John A. Grimsted, Chair

Every year our Commission helps to establish a minimum salary package. This is a difficult task. We know that the salary package has to reflect what the church can afford, but at the same time it needs, as the Discipline says, to enable clergy “to devote all your time to the work of God.”

Pastors and churches need to be aware that what the Equitable Compensation Commission sets is a minimum salary package. Once that package is established, the church and pastor are free to move the money into categories that would be of the greatest benefit to them. Moving money out of salary and into either: (A) parsonage/utilities allowance or, if possible, (B) housing allowance would be very beneficial to pastors. We recommend that you place the maximum amount possible in these funds.

Two years ago, we recommended no increase in minimum salary packages and last year, we recommended a 2% increase. We are once again recommending a 2% increase. We feel that this modest increase is within the reach of most churches. We recommend that minimum salary packages for 2012 be set as follows: $35,600 (for elders in full connection), $33,800 (for provisional members), and $32,000 (for local pastors). We strongly urge local churches to put at least $4,500 of that money in parsonage/ utilities allowance (more if possible).

In addition, the minimum salary package should be increased by $100 per year of service in the United Methodist Church, capped at a maximum of ten years or $1,000.

The Commission also recommends, but cannot require, that business and professional expenses be set at no less than $3,000 per year. This represents a $300 increase over what this amount has been for many years.

Housing is to be considered as part of the ministerial compensation package. Here is our recommendation for 2012-2013:

1. For our purposes, every parsonage will be considered as meeting the minimum salary package. This is true whether the clergy is working full-time or part-time. 2. That a percentage of housing allowance be paid to each pastor that is commensurate to the percentage they work (e.g. one quarter-time receives one quarter the housing allowance, one-half time receives one-half the housing allowance, etc.). 3. In lieu of a parsonage, churches will pay a minimum housing allowance as part of the total compensation package. A two-tier formula will be applied consisting of $12,000 for most areas and $14,000 for churches in areas with unusually high housing costs (so far this means only Portland). Tier designations will be determined by the Equitable Compensation Commission. These two tiers will be reviewed every two years. Appeals may be made to the Commission. 4. Churches and pastors may apply for an exemption to housing allowances under certain conditions (for example, a pastor already has a home in the area, etc.). If the Commission does not grant an exemption, then churches must pay the housing portion of the ministerial compensation package.

The Commission has requested that the Council on Finance and Administration set our budget for 2012 at $60,000, including $2,000 for the administrative costs of the Commission. This represents a decrease of $40,000 or 40%.

Council on Finance and Administration Ted Wimer, President

God blesses us with gifts that are both amazing and plentiful. As Christians we are called to take care of all God has provided. One of CF&A’s tasks is to faithfully steward the funds of the Annual Conference 190 Reports throughout the year. The Oregon-Idaho Conference had an exciting year full of blessings and challenges. In 2010 we started making dramatic, transitional changes in our organizational structure and in our budget. We have taken on the task of changing our operation to be more sustainable as we do what God is calling us to do.

In 2009 and 2008 we faced large drops in our General Fund reserve. In response our Conference team made many cuts in programs and salaries. Some areas had to curtail activities. We reduced and/or froze staff salaries. In 2010 we maintained these austerity steps including the invoking of a spending plan early in the year.

We are starting to see the results of these tactics. Because of the conscientious efforts of all Boards and Agencies we were able to spend $446,000 less than in 2009. The operating results for 2010 showed we spent $3,485,324. We received $3,354,785 in apportionment income from local churches. Designated Reserve funds were able to cover some of the shortfall. Our other income sources and earnings on our investments allowed the General Fund to end at $651,682. This is good news; the General Fund stopped decreasing. The General Fund needs to have sufficient reserve to allow for three to four months of operations (approximately $1.5 million). A chart of the recent history of the General Operating Fund Reserve is shown below.

The other good news is we are finding new ways to do what God is calling us to do. Disciples are made and nurtured at the Local Church level: Our Conference operations and budget are focused on supporting the health, vitality and fruitfulness of local churches and their leadership.

At our 2010 Annual Conference Session CF&A proposed a “Unified Budget” which was adopted. In the Unified Budget, common areas of expense are gathered under descriptive titles with a single bottom line. The reaction to this new view has been positive from local church treasurers. We moved our Conference programs off-budget to encourage and allow local churches to be more intentional in their support of mission & ministry. In this new paradigm, local churches that become more healthy and vital in their settings will grow; and our entire United Methodist Connection will benefit from each success.

As we entered 2011, CF&A noted that the 2010 apportionment income came in at a lower percentage of the budget than in 2009, even though the 2010 budget had decreased. Therefore CF&A has invoked a 2011 Spending Plan!

There is good news in our report for 2010. Our national economy continues to recover, and our states are following. As we go ahead during this time of transition and change in our Annual Conference, every person’s efforts are needed; we need every local church to be growing in their discipleship. We want to thank you for offering back to God the gifts of your continued prayers, presence in mission and ministry, your time in stewarding God’s people and God’s word, and your financial gifts. We are all a part of Christ’s Church and we need to nurture our United Methodist connections; the ties that bind us together. May God’s abundant blessings continue and may we always be thankful. Reports 191 ANNUAL RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE COUNCIL ON FINANCE AND ADMINISTRATION

1. Between sessions of the Annual Conference, the Council on Finance and Administration shall implement a spending plan based upon anticipated receipts and projected expenses. This plan shall be determined by the Council after consultation with the Bishop, the Ministry Leadership Team and the Director of Stewardship and Finance. 2. The first 200 miles to theAnnual Conference session will be exempted from mileage reimbursement. 3. Lay Members entitled to reimbursement under Conference Rule 1.030 will be reimbursed for housing and meals while attending the session; the maximum amount of reimbursement is set at $277 for 2011. 4. The Oregon-Idaho Conference Council on Finance and Administration is authorized to borrow up to $500,000 on an open line of credit to cover essential and authorized expenditures during intervals dictated by cash flow needs. Interest on such borrowed funds will be paid from the “Contingency” line item in the budget. 5. The General Fund is maintained and administered by the Council on Finance and Administration. The General Fund reserve (balance) provides working capital (cash flow) for the operation of the Conference, emergencies and unexpected needs that arise from time to time. The annual net operating results in the budget funds not otherwise designated will provide the basis for the General Fund. The General Fund reserve needs to be large enough ($1.5 million) to support several months of operating expenses for the Conference – to act as a cash flow. 6. The following organizations are given permission to solicit funds among the churches of the Conference without quota: Willamette University Pacific School of Religion Alaska Pacific University Rust College United Methodist Campus Ministries of the Conference Willamette View Foundation United Methodist Retirement Center, Salem Clergy-mates Emergency Fund Ecumenical Ministries of Oregon Northwest United Methodist Foundation Oregon-Idaho United Methodist Minister’s Retirement Fund Partnership with Liberia Annual Conference

Rules Committee David Armstrong, Chair

The Rules Committee is not proposing any changes to the Conference Rules for the 2011Annual Conference. Action Requests 5, 11, 15, 17, 19 and 21 involved rules changes and were approved by the Rules Committee before consideration at the 2011 Legislative Assembly. If any other legislation is submitted to the 2011 Annual Conference, the Rules Committee will review the changes to confirm there are no conflicts with the Book of Discipline or other parts of the Conference Rules.The Conference Rules will be revised based on the legislation approved at Annual Conference.

I’d like to welcome Colleen Todd to the Rules Committee and thank Kirk Jeffrey, Warren Light and Jim Murch for their continued service. 192 Reports Board of Pensions & Health Benefits Jamie Kienzle, Chair

At the April, 2011 Board of Pensions and Health Benefits (BOP) meeting, we reviewed how the Oregon- Idaho Annual Conference mission and vision related to the annual conference BOP. Some of our top BOP VALUES include: Equity (retired and active, lay and clergy), Wellness, Stewardship of all resources available to the board, and Protection—for churches and clergy. It is easy to get involved in the numbers and forget the overall mission of the local church.

The reserve funds used for the Board of Pensions and Health Benefits (BOP) health and pension programs have made a modest comeback in 2010. However, all the 2008 stock market losses have not yet been fully restored. Draws from a number of BOP reserve funds will be required to balance the current 2011 budget. The same will be required for the proposed 2012 budget. The 2012 conference BOP budget is being held at the same level as 2011 with reserve funds used for balancing the pensions and health insurance budget items.

This is a challenging financial time for both the annual conference and local churches.To contain premium increases, the Board instituted a cost-sharing measure that requires a $50 per month contribution for participants with one or more dependents. This has also encouraged clergy spouses who have group health insurance coverage from their own employment to drop HealthFlex coverage. Any dependent who loses their group coverage can return to HealthFlex at any time or upon retirement if the enrollment change is done during the annual open enrollment or upon loss of eligibility of the other coverage.

The total HealthFlex plan premium rates are determined by three factors: First, the loss ratio, second, the available reserve accounts, and third, the increased costs of health care. We should celebrate a drop in the loss ratio from 120% in 2009 to 90% in 2010! The 2012 blended active premium rate for 2012 is recommended to be $1240 per month. This is a 3 percent increase. Two 2011 HealthFlex options will continue to be available for 2012. The first option, for the active participant’s health plan choice is PPO B1000 (P2) premium. The second option is the Consumer Driven Health Plan--CDHP (P2) plan.

There were some immediate changes required in HealthFlex as a result of the passage of the national healthcare bill such as dependent coverage for children up to the age of 26. HealthFlex is continuing to study the healthcare bill to understand immediate and future changes (if any) to the current HealthFlex health insurance plans.

Policy Changes: The BOP is continuing a careful consideration of all past policies. Some policies have been rendered no longer valid by more recent action and have been dropped. Several policies and conference rules are being discussed and revisions will be suggested to represent current practices. The BOP has made several recent policy changes to address specific issues:

1. The BOP will use available overfunding in the Pre-1982 pension funds to make payments for any defined benefit pension plans, as needed. 2. The BOP will provide some funds from reserves to the Central Conference Pension Initiative (CCPI). 3. The BOP has established a study committee to examine a new HealthFlex retiree health insurance option and to make a recommendation for 2013.

Current Pension Program (Clergy Retirement Security Program-CRSP) Clergy participants in the United Methodist pension program are now participating in the pension plan called the Clergy Retirement Security Program, Defined Benefit (CRSP-DB and CRSP-DC, Defined Contribution) approved by the 2004 General Conference.

Funding for the CRSP-DB (defined benefit) pension program will come from billings to local congregations. For 2012, local congregations will pay 13% of the pastor’s compensation. Some funds from other pension reserve funds will be used to pay the actual billing for CRSP-DB. Reports 193 CPP – The Comprehensive Protection Plan (CPP) provides clergy death benefits, survivor children benefits, minimum surviving spouse benefits, disability benefits, and pension supplements to CRSP-DB accounts.

The Board of Pensions (BOP) met on 10/10/2009 and discussed the three-year Comprehensive Protection Plan (CPP) premium holiday from the GBOPHB. We also discussed the 2011 Clergy Retirement Security Program Defined Benefit (CRSP-DB) and Ministerial Pension Plan (MPP) expected increase payments due to the 2008 stock market losses. We chose to select the CPP premium holiday for the years 2010, 2011, and 2012.

The CRSP-DB and MPP pension plans are now underfunded. This will require a new conference contribution estimated at $256,926 for MPP in 2011 and an estimated increase of $65,034 for 2011 CRSP-DB payments. The projected conference FTE of 152.5 for the 2012 payments will require the total conference CRSP-DB contributions of $992,503. The BOP has proposed to use a new term to replace the CPP in the 2010 annual conference budget in the line item “Apportioned Pension & Benefits Funding.” We shall rename “CPP” with Clergy Pension Restoration (CPR) for the years 2010, 2011, and 2012. The equivalent apportioned Ministerial Support funds available from the CPP holiday (now called CPR) will be reserved for the 2010, 2011, and 2012 increased CRSP-DB conference contributions and the new 2011 MPP conference contributions.

Pre-1982 Pension Plan: This is the 8th year we have been able to report that our pre-1982 pension obligation is fully funded. As required by the 2000 General Conference, the General Board approved our funding plan for this obligation. The BOP recommends raising the 2012 pension rate for the Pre-82 plan to $536 per service year. This is 1 % of the Conference Average Compensation (CAC).

Health Insurance Matters: Our loss ratio was 102.7% for 2008 and was up from 81% in 2006. The 2009 active plan loss ratio was 116% and the Medicare Companion Plan loss ratio was 89.9%. The HealthFlex program continues to put health associated incentives into the program to try to keep costs and claims down. The good news is that the 2010 HealthFlex loss ratio was 90%!

The HealthFlex Program continues its pharmaceutical benefits for retirees rather than have them participate in Medicare Part D (the Medicare pharmaceutical program).

The Board is sensitive to the increased costs of those clergy who serve in areas without network health care providers. We are seeking ways to address this inequity.

Wellness: Increasing clergy wellness remains an important way to lower costs and to increase effectiveness in and satisfaction with ministry. We encourage dialogue between clergy and SPRCs on clergy wellness. Our Board has developed an excellent “Clergy Wellness Agreement” which could be a basis for conversation. We also encourage the Assistants to the Bishop to discuss wellness issues with congregations. We strongly encourage all clergy to have an annual wellness exam and to complete their Health Quotient (HQ) available through the General Board at www.gbophb.org. The HealthFlex Program has many aids available to help each participant to get healthier and many of these aids are keyed to the HQ data.

The HealthFlex incentive program was changed in 2010. It is the expectation of HealthFlex that ALL active participants or retired participants under the age of 65 continue to complete their Health Quotient (HQ). The HealthFlex associated programs like WebMD and a number of other HealthFlex programs are keyed to the HQ information. Those participants that don’t want free personal health coaching can specify at the first call or at any time and the health coaching calls will stop! Other online HealthFlex helps are also available.

The HQ can be completed without having all the blood work or other health numbers or even knowing your ID number. The HQ can be updated at any time during the year when the health numbers are available using the VERY SECURE HQ website. The yearly HQ completion requirement will continue into future years. 194 Reports Health Insurance Endowment Fund: Earnings from this fund subsidize health insurance premiums for seminary students and those participants on disability. The endowment is currently valued at $ 4.69 million (4 million as of 1/1/2010, down from $4.4 million as of January 1, 2008).

Health Insurance Retiree Subsidy: The unfunded liability increased from $18 million (2006 actuarial report) to $20 million in the 2008 actuarial report. The subsidy changes and plan changes approved at the 2009 annual conference will provide considerable help in reducing the unfunded retiree health insurance liability in 2011 and 2012. The December 31, 2010 actuarial report places our unfunded liability based on the Retiree Health Insurance subsidy changes, now at $11.5 million! This decrease in our unfunded liability and the decreased future related annual costs to the Annual Conference budget should be celebrated. However, even though there was a necessary change in the subsidy, the BOP is still concerned about the increased health insurance costs to the retired clergy.

Your Conference Board of Pensions and Health Benefits present the following recommendations for your consideration and action. The Recommendations and the Pensions and Welfare plans below require annual conference vote.

RECOMMENDATIONS

Health Insurance Plan The Conference will continue to participate in the HealthFlex Program offered through the General Board of Pensions and Health Benefits.

1. That the Conference Board of Pensions, in consultation with the Council on Finance and Administration, is authorized to adjust the Conference Budget for Health Insurance Premiums and the monthly billed amount between sessions of the Annual Conference, if necessary, due to the receipt of new premium rate information from the General Board of Pensions and Health Benefits. 2. That the Conference Board of Pensions is authorized to adopt new eligibility policies as required by the General Board of Pensions and Health Benefits for the HealthFlex Program. These policies may include procedures for the cancellation of coverage due to various circumstances. The effective date of these policies will be determined as required by the General Board. 3. That 100% of the Health Care Insurance Premiums be billed to local churches. Fifty dollars will be billed to the participant for coverage other than the participant. 4. That the active HealthFlex plan be either choice (1) PPO B1000 (P2)—prescription Percentage copay or P2) OR Choice (2) the Consumer Driven Health Plan—(CDHP P2). 5. That the Medicare Companion Plan be the Medicare Companion Plan 1 (P2—Percentage copay). 6. That the following Health Insurance policies be continued: a. No premium subsidy will be granted to participants retiring prior to the age of their Medicare eligibility. They shall be responsible for the full payment of their health insurance premium. Those who are eligible to retire under the forty-year rule, (¶359.2) will be granted an exception to receive the retired subsidy for their health care premium. Upon reaching the age for Medicare eligibility, and enrolling in the Medicare program, the clergy member shall be eligible for conference subsidy based on the then current schedule as approved by the annual conference provided the member has remained a participant in the conference health insurance plan since retiring. b. 100% of the premium payment for those persons eligible for benefits under CPP or BPP Disability programs. c. That the Subsidy Supplement Formula, outlined below, continue as previously approved.

Current Retirees (or surviving spouses) with twenty or more years of Pre-82 service credit No Change

All Other Retirees who retired before 1/1/2011 Beginning in 2011, reduce subsidy formula by 5 percentage points each year for five years to stabilize premiums. Spouses receive same subsidy as participant.

Retirees must be in the HealthFlex program five years prior to retirement.When applicable: spouses of retirees will receive 50% of the subsidy the retiree receives. Surviving spouses receive the same subsidy as the participant. For clergy couples, the higher participant years of service will be used to determine the subsidy.

NOTE: The Annual Conference has adopted the Small Employer Exemption to the Medicare Secondary Payer Rules. These rules REQUIRE any participant, active or retired, to enroll in the Medicare Program at age 65. At age 65, the Medicare Program will become the Primary Health Coverage for ALL PARTICIPANTS OVER AGE 65.

Pension and Welfare Plans 1. That effective January 1, 2012, the Pre-82 (MRPF) pension rate for ordained and local pastors shall be $536.00 per service year, with 70% continuing payment to surviving spouse, and that Addendum A of the Clergy Retirement Security Program be so amended. 2. That concerning the Clergy Retirement Security Program (CRSP): The Conference Treasurer will bill each local church for CRSP at the rate of 13% of the pastor’s compensation (including cash salary plus utilities and housing allowance [25% of cash salary if a parsonage is provided], plus any tax deferred annuity and/or contribution towards Social Security). Local churches served by retired clergy are exempt from this billing. 3. The CPP contribution is 3% of plan compensation and the estimated cost, $270,000, is included in the Shared Ministries Apportionment for the 2012 budget. The General Board of Pension and Health Benefits has declared a CPP premium holiday for three years to allow annual conferences to use the funds for unfunded pension programs. The BOP has chosen to select the three years starting in 2010—see 4. Below. 196 Reports 4. That the CPP apportionment be designated as Clergy Pension Restoration (CPR) for the years 2010, 2011, and 2012. The CPR funds will be used to fund shortfalls in CRSP-DB and MPP pension funds, which are now underfunded due to 2008 stock market losses. 5. Up to 100% of the year 2012 payments to retirees and disabled Clergypersons be designated as housing allowance in accordance with the “Resolution Relating to Rental Housing Allowance for Retired or Disabled Ministers of the Annual Conference” as stated in the attached Addendum C. 6. That the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference meeting in Salem, OR June 15-18, 2011 approves the Funding Plan for Supplement One to the Ministerial Pension Plan, for 2011, as submitted by the Conference Board of Pensions and approved by the General Board of Pensions and Health Benefits.

RESOLUTION RELATING TO RENTAL/HOUSING ALLOWANCES FOR RETIRED OR DISABLED CLERGYPERSONS OF THE OREGON-IDAHO ANNUAL CONFERENCE

The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference (the “Conference”) adopts the following resolution relating to rental/housing allowances for active, retired or disabled clergypersons of the Conference:

WHEREAS, the religious denomination known as The United Methodist Church (the “Church”), of which this Conference is a part, has in the past functioned and continues to function through ministers of the gospel (within the meaning of Internal Revenue Code section 107) who were or are duly ordained, commissioned, or licensed ministers of the Church (“Clergypersons”); and

WHEREAS, the practice of the Church and of this Conference was and is to provide active Clergypersons with a parsonage or a rental/housing allowance as part of the gross compensation; and

WHEREAS, pensions or other amounts paid to active, retired and disabled Clergypersons are considered to be deferred compensation and are paid to retired and disabled Clergypersons in consideration of previous active service; and

WHEREAS, The Internal Revenue Service has recognized the Conference (or its predecessors) as the appropriate organization to designate a rental/housing allowance for Clergypersons who are or were members of this Conference and are eligible to receive such deferred compensation;

NOW THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED: THAT an amount equal to 100% of the pension or disability payments received from plans authorized under The Book of Discipline of The United Methodist Church (the “Discipline”), which includes all such payments from the General Board of Pensions and Health Benefits (“GBOPHB”), during the year of 2012 by each active, retired or disabled Clergyperson who is or was a member of the Conference, or its predecessors, be and hereby is designated as a rental/housing allowance for each such Clergyperson; and

THAT the pension or disability payments to which this rental/housing allowance applies will be any pension or disability payments from plans, annuities, or funds authorized under the Discipline, including such payments from the GBOPHB and from a commercial annuity company that provides an annuity arising from benefits accrued under a GBOPHB plan, annuity, or fund authorized under theDiscipline , that result from any service a Clergyperson rendered to this Conference or that an active, a retired or a disabled Clergyperson of this Conference rendered to any local church, annual conference of the Church, general agency of the Church, other institution of the Church, former denomination that is now a part of the Church, or any other employer that employed the Clergyperson to perform services related to the ministry of the Church, or its predecessors, and that elected to make contributions to, or accrue a benefit under, such a plan, annuity, or fund for such retired or disabled Clergyperson’s pension or disability as part of his or her gross compensation.

NOTE: The rental/housing allowance that may be excluded from a Clergyperson’s gross income in any year for federal income tax purposes is limited under Internal Revenue Code section 107(2) and regulations there under to the least of: (1) the amount of the rental/housing allowance designated by the Clergyperson’s employer or other appropriate body of the Church (such as this Conference in the foregoing resolutions) for such year; (2) the amount actually expended by the Clergyperson to rent or provide a home is such year; or (3) the fair rental value of the home, including furnishings and appurtenances (such as a garage), plus the cost of utilities in such year. 198 Reports Funding Plan Oregon-Idaho Conference of The United Methodist Church For Supplement One to the Clergy Retirement Security Plan For 2011

The Past Service Rate (PSR) for the Oregon-Idaho Conference is established annually by action of the Annual Conference. For the year 2011, our Annual Conference set this PSR amount at $524.00

Paragraph 1506.7 of The Book of Discipline mandates that this rate cannot be less than 0.8% of the Conference Average Compensation (CAC) and recommends that the rate be not less than 1% of the CAC. For 2011, our CAC is $52,409. At $524.00 we are in compliance with that mandate at 1.00% of our CAC.

In the long term, we project earnings on our present assets to average 7%.

In the long term, we project that we will annually increase our PSR in the range of 4%. The actual increase will vary since it is our intention not to fall below the rate of 1.0% of the CAC as indicated above.

We recognize that the actuarial projection of our pre-1982 liability totals $18,644,574. This liability is calculated using RP2000 mortality table. We have been paying into that obligation for a number of years and, as reported by the General Board of Pensions and Health Benefits (GBOPHB), are currently in an over-funded situation. In other words, following acceptable guidelines for investment growth and future payout requirements, we now have enough money set aside to meet our future needs.

It is our intention to utilize a portion of the overfunding in our pre-1982 Plan to cover some of the cost of the Clergy Retirement Security Program (CRSP). Funds in excess of 100% funding of our Pre-82 Plan will be used to cover some or all of the costs of annual CRSP payments as well as the required additional MPP payment in 2011.

The philosophy of our conference related to the Past Service Rate is to maintain that funded position. In other words, we will not attempt to raise the rate in any manner that re-establishes an unfunded liability. Along with that core concept, we will also 1. try to match or exceed, if possible, the cost of living, and 2. keep our traditional tie to the Conference Average Compensation All of the assets dedicated to this pre-82 obligation are on deposit with the GBOPHB and are invested in the Multiple Asset Fund (MAF). Because our investment earning projections are identical to the General Board of Pension and Health Benefits assumptions, and since they also manage the MAF, we feel confident that the investment growth of the Multiple Asset Fund will be sufficient to meet our PSR goals as stated above. Because the basis of our PSR philosophy is to avoid an unfunded position, we do not believe a long discussion of the GBOPHB investment philosophy, history and guidelines is relevant to the purposes of this document.

Our funding plan, as of January 1, 2009 for 2011, is summarized as follows: Present Value of Benefits as defined by GBOPHB Funds in the plan $18,644,574 $21,837,046

I am pleased to report to you on the activity of the Oregon-Idaho Conference Board of Trustees during the past year. The Trustees met twice in the last year in Portland (October 1, 2010 and April 1, 2011) and reviewed issues of insurance, finance, facilities and properties for which theTrustees are responsible.

Property matters have been a major agenda item for the Board over the past year. In particular, the Board has responsibility for the property of congregations that have closed. We are nearing completion of the transfer of the Williamson River property to the Klamath Tribes. This is the culmination of several years of work. We have entered into a buy-sell agreement for the property from the Shedd Church, and hope to have the transaction finalized prior to annual conference. We are extremely grateful to Bruce Nelson of the Trustees and to Elisa Chandler from the Shedd congregation for their excellent work and dedication to this matter. Some years ago the conference entered into a lease-purchase arrangement with a congregation in Myrtle Point. Since it is apparent that the agreement will never be realized, we have begun negotiations to sell the deteriorating property immediately. We are maintaining the Prairie City church property as we seek a potential buyer. The Trustees further continue to seek out properties of the United Methodist Church in the Conference that have been lost, abandoned or ceased to be used for purposes in service to the Methodist Church. Any information on this subject should please be directed to Bill Mullette-Bauer in the conference office.

The Trustees have also been involved in a lawsuit filed in November 2010 in Malheur County Circuit Court against Ontario Community Church Inc. (an independent non-denominational church in Ontario, Oregon), its corporate directors, and its pastor. The suit was filed by the Trustees in order to recover property and funds that are held in trust for the mission and ministry of The United Methodist Church. The complaint the Trustees filed contends that members of the church did not have the right to take United Methodist Church property and divert it for use as a non-denominational church. In addition to the church building itself, the lawsuit calls for the turnover of bank accounts and other property in the building including historic documents and membership records. For context, the United Methodist Church (formerly The Methodist Church) founded the Ontario Community UMC in 1945 and it has operated as a constituent part of The United Methodist Church since that time. The Trustees’ position is that the United Methodist Church’s rules have always made clear that local church property is held in trust for the entire denomination. In June of 2010, some members of the Ontario Community United Methodist Church took that church’s property from The United Methodist Church, action which is not permitted by church law. Since then they have been operating as “Ontario Community Church, Inc.”

After unsuccessful attempts to negotiate a resolution of the dispute, the Trustees voted to file suit in order to regain possession of the church property and funds. Greg Tollefson made the following statement to the press in his capacity as Chair of the Board: “It’s unfortunate when a church dispute must be resolved in court; however we have been unsuccessful in trying to resolve the matter short of litigation. In addition, we have an important responsibility to protect property which has been part of The United Methodist Church for 65 years. We understand that certain current members wish to leave the denomination, but this departure does not entitle them to occupy property of The United Methodist Church or appropriate church funds for other purposes.”

There was an initial hearing in March 2011, where the Court rejected the Community Church’s initial challenge to the UMC’s claims and the Court also commented favorably with regard to the Trustees’ contention that the UM Book of Discipline should govern the issues in dispute. It now appears, however, that the parties have reached a tentative agreement. The settlement will uphold the trust clause that applies to property held by all congregations for the use and benefit of the United Methodist Church. Further reports will follow.

We have established two task forces: one to develop detailed procedures for handling the closure of churches and the other to establish minimum standards for insurance for our local congregations. We still continue to work with UMPACT in their re-structuring in hopes that the ultimate outcome will be affordable, quality insurance for the conference and our churches which choose to participate. Reports 201 Commission on Archives and History Charles W. Chase, chair

The Conference Archives has been located in the MICAH Building at First United Methodist Church in Salem, Oregon. This past year the Archives in the MICAH Building was devastated when it was flooded with water and then experienced extensive damage from mold and mildew. Both Don and Shirley Knepp, our Oregon Records Archivists have worked hard to salvage our priceless materials.

Currently, all the materials have been moved to another room in the MICAH Building awaiting decisions that need to be made regarding the future placement and care of our Archives. We are working to keep the Archives materials available as best we can at this time.

Idaho Records Archivist Linda Tewksbury oversees the archival materials stored in Boise, Idaho which include the churches, camps and colleges from the former Idaho Conference. To gain access to these records you will need to contact Linda.

Each church is asked to submit their histories in one of three categories: 1) New Local History, 2 Updated Local History, and 3) Annually Updated Local History. If you have a Church History, please send at least two copies to the Commission for the Conference Archives. If you are uncertain as to whether a copy of your church history has ever been submitted to the Commission, please check with our Archivists, Shirley and Don Knepp at the Conference Archives in Salem or with Linda Tewksbury in Idaho.

The Commission is continually working to seek out and designate places of historical significance to the Annual Conference. The Commission continues to ask all churches to re-examine their historical background and submit applications for Conference Historic Sites if they meet the Guidelines for Official United Methodist Historic Sites which are available from the Commission.

Those Conference Historic Sites currently recognized by the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference are: 1) First United Methodist Church of Salem, Oregon; 2) Mission Mill Museum in Salem, Oregon; 3) Jason Lee United Methodist Church at Blackfoot, Idaho; 4) Willamette Mission State Park, at Gervais, near Salem, Oregon, 5) Newman United Methodist Church at Grants Pass, Oregon, 6) the Gooding College site at Gooding, Idaho; 7) Waller Hall on the campus of Willamette University, in Salem, Oregon; 8) Lee Mission Cemetery, Salem, Oregon; 9) the Belknap Settlement (which includes the Bellfountain Campground, as well as the sites of the Ebenezer School and Simpson Chapel), near Monroe, Oregon; 10) Philomath College, Philomath, Oregon; 11) Pleasant Home United Methodist Church, Gresham, Oregon; 12) Tabor Heights United Methodist Church, Portland, Oregon; and 13) Pulpit Rock in The Dalles, Oregon, part of the Wascopam “Dalles” Mission founded in 1838.

The Commission requests that all Conference Boards, Agencies and Commissions read and review Chapter 7 of the Conference Rules Relating to Archives and History. It is important that all written documents placed into the Conference Archives are filed on acid free paper. We need your minutes and reports sent into us on a regular basis.

The Commission would like to receive notices of church anniversaries or other historic celebrations. Please send two copies of your Anniversary and Historical Books or materials to the Archives for safekeeping. Remember to include copies of your special programs, bulletins or newsletters to the Conference Archives.

United Methodist Ministers’ Retirement Fund Betty Foster, President

For over a hundred years, the United Methodist Ministers’ Retirement Fund has provided financial support to the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference to assist in its support of our retired clergy. Although our investment portfolio has not yet fully recovered from the stock market decline of 2008-2009, we 202 Reports have stayed committed to both our long-term investment strategy and our policy of distributing funds to the Conference Board of Pensions. Even in the down years, we continued to contribute 5% of the three- year average ending balance of our funds. In 2010 we were able to contribute $91,181, and this year the amount will be $85,148.

As a denomination, and as a society, we have become aware of the increasing challenges faced by pension funds and we are all conscious of the stress on the finances of our local congregations.The net result of the UMMRF annual contribution is a reduction in costs for our local congregations. In addition to investment earnings, we solicit contributions annually during the third quarter of the year. Additionally, this past year we received a bequest from the estate of Howard Somers in excess of $20,000. Howard was a long-time supporter of UMMRF and served as investment counselor to the fund for years. We are grateful for his gift and hope his generosity might inspire others to consider the fund in their estate planning.

The UMMRF is directly connected to the annual conference. We ask that you elect the members of the Board of Directors that we have placed in nomination.

Church Development Team Peg Lofsvold, chair

New places for new people! The United Methodist Church is seeking new ways to share the good news of new life in Christ. Building healthy, vital congregations! The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference is committed to re-energizing congregations for mission and ministry and creating new relationships with spiritually thirsty people. The Church Development Team (CDT) is passionate about this work. Let me share a few highlights of the past year.

Leadership development is now the primary focus for CDT’s work. Excellent leaders who are called, equipped, assessed, and deployed for new ministry, are key to developing vital, new ministry settings. We are identifying a large pool of leaders and assisting them with their discernment process, in partnership with our Ministry Leadership Team, Hispanic Ministries Council, and Path1 of the General Board of Discipleship.

Providing resources for dreamers and planters, whether individuals or local churches, is our second strategy. We are pleased to offer Micro-grants for new, innovative ministries to new people. Here’s a chance for seed money for a project a leader or church is interested in starting in their neighborhood. The best ideas will be shared with others. Thanks to a Collins Family Grant, funds are available for projects in Hispanic and Anglo settings. Lee Hunefeld administers the Micro-grant program. Please contact him for your application.

We are developing a team of resource people to support these new enterprises. No one has all the tools and skills needed to launch something new. Right now, we are building a pool of volunteer consultants to assist with marketing, finance, worship and social media, or business practices. Contact Beth Estock or Lynn Egli for more information on volunteering, or requesting help. Faith Communities are coming to life! We celebrate new faith communities in Oregon and Idaho. A Hispanic ministry is growing in Caldwell, Idaho and La Cena/The Table is bringing people together in Cornelius, Oregon. A fellowship for women flourishes in the Sherwood, Oregon area. A new coffeehouse ministry is in the works in Tigard. A Spanish-speaking congregation is exploring becoming a United Methodist fellowship in partnership with an urban Portland congregation. Leaders interested in New Monastic Communities have begun meeting to support the birth of at least two new communities grounded in the intentional practices of prayer and ministry.

Strong local churches are important partners in many of these enterprises. Local congregations can begin something new by starting a ministry, class, or outreach that builds lasting relationships with new people. Churches can provide leadership, space, seed money, or skilled assistance to support someone else’s idea. Churches can encourage their best leaders to consider the leadership discernment and training available. Reports 203 Churches can pray for the new places for new people, their leaders, and their ministry. We believe these efforts touch and change the lives of seeking people--and change the lives of established congregations-- bringing new energy and strengthening disciples of Christ. We believe it because we’ve seen it.

Last year, we announced the launch of ANEW Experience in west Ada County, Idaho. A talented planter, Teresa Adams, her husband Scott, and their team hoped to establish a family community in a growing area of our Conference. They received the best training the general church has to offer, had a strong plan with clear benchmarks for success, and support from Beth Estock, staff with CDT, Kim Fields, the A2B for Snake River District, and John Grimstead, her mentor. Many thanks, John! Teresa put her heart into this first new church launch in 20 years. But new church starts are tough, especially in the Pacific Northwest. Despite her efforts, ANEW did not meet its benchmarks, and the launch was closed down in February. We offer deep gratitude for Teresa, her family, and her team for answering the call to create new places for new people, and pray God’s blessings be on them.

We learned a great deal from the ANEW Experience launch. We will continue to follow the best practices of the general church for launching new faith communities, but we will also ask more questions about our Northwest context and people. We will ask leaders to share their vision with others early in the process, asking for “buy in” from potential supporters and members. We will look to many different models for faith communities, learning which are most fruitful in our part of the world. We will be looking for active partnerships with strong, vital congregations. And we have learned to fail--with hope. As resurrection people, we are called to rise up with each death, to plant again the seeds of faith. Each ending is the opportunity for a new beginning.

A last word of heartfelt thanks to our staff and volunteer Team. In Beth Estock, we have a nationally- known leader in developing new faith communities. She has traveled, learned, and led on our behalf here in Oregon and Idaho, and across the country. In March, she was the local organizer for the national Network for Church Planters conference hosted in Portland. It was a smashing success as she introduced national leaders to new models and partnerships developed in the Northwest. Her address to the group was published in the Path1 e-newsletter for the wider church. We welcome Lynn Egli, who is volunteering in retirement as a staff person. His experience in launching new businesses has brought energy and clarity to CDT’s work. His expertise in planning, development, and quickly adapting new projects is already bearing fruit.

We thank CDT member Dan Pitney who was instrumental in re-organizing the mission of CDT these past few years. You are missed, Dan! And finally, many thanks to out-going chairperson Lee Hunefeld for his great contributions to the Team. We are glad he continues as the Micro-grant Administrator.

God is making all things new, in us and through us. May God lead us in this next year of creating new faith communities for people yearning for connection, healing, and joy in their lives.

The Bishop’s Initiative to Eliminate Hunger Jonathan Enz and Gayle Woods, Co-Chairs

In this year of increasingly difficult financial news, as more of our families, friends and neighbors struggle, many for the first time, with issues of hunger or food insecurity, the ministries provided by the congregations of this Annual Conference have taken on an even greater urgency. Heeding the call to “feed the hungry,” United Methodists in Idaho and Oregon have stepped out in faith, beginning new ministries or expanding existing ones to meet the needs.

The highlights of each year are the opportunities to award grants to congregations to enable them to begin or expand hunger ministries. These grants are funded primarily through the Change Hunger Fast offering which congregations bring to Annual Conference each June. In 2010, $12,927.74 was received. Additional gifts provided another $2600. Because of this, the task force was able to award nine grants in 2010/2011 totaling over $18,000 dollars. Grants were awarded to Beaverton UMC; Portland First; Asbury, Emmett, Halsey, Jason Lee Memorial, John Day, Joseph, and Shelley UMC’s. Many of these 204 Reports ministries are ecumenical and involve partnerships with a variety of community organizations and agencies.

Three extensive community gardens will provide fresh, healthy food and model sustainability, offer nutrition education, and give recipients the opportunity to participate in providing for their own needs. A meal for homeless and at-risk teens will not only fill their stomachs, but will also provide an opportunity to develop relationships and assess their other needs. Expansion of an existing weekend meal program will allow even more elementary-age students to have a nutritious meal on weekends when school lunch is not available. Other existing ministries have seen a need to replace existing equipment or provide for the responsible maintenance of the part of their facility used for the hunger ministry.

Grant guidelines and applications are available on the Conference web site. Grants may be awarded for start-up expenses, infrastructure, equipment, or other one-time expenses. Programs must have a plan for self-sufficiency and have additional funding from other sources. Applicants are also provided guidance and assistance in locating and connecting with other available funding resources and following “best practices.”

Our Laity Workshop offering – Creating Hunger-Free Communities – is an opportunity for participants to learn how to identify community needs, and then plan and evaluate ministries to most effectively meet those needs.

There are currently vacancies for District Hunger Coordinators in Central and Southern Districts. District Hunger Coordinators continue to be available for consultation, training and assistance in implementing new ministries. Current District Coordinators are: Snake River District – Shannon Jensen; Metro District – Janice Stevens; and Western District – Gerry and Dotty Edy. Hunger Task Force members include Bishop Hoshibata, Jonathan Enz, Sharon Thornberry, Linda Jones and Gayle Woods.

We have been working extensively this year to find ways to more effectively communicate with congregations. For this reason, we are asking each congregation to identify a contact person who can provide information about hunger programs in that church and is willing to receive and share hunger-related information with the rest of the congregation. We are also eager to hear about the amazing hunger-related ministries currently provided throughout Idaho and Oregon. Congregations are encouraged to share their stories (preferably in writing) with any member of the task force or district hunger coordinator.

Central (Oregon Trail) District Stephan Ross, Assistant to the Bishop

The first year serving as Assistant to the Bishop for the Central District has been a wondrous experience and a steep learning curve.

We have been rebuilding and reinforcing the colloquy networks in order to provide greater collegiality and peer support for the pastors of our congregations. We have piloted leadership development processes in two ways: Pastoral Leadership Development and Congregational Leadership Development. Those pilot experiences have been very useful and we will be modifying the leadership development process to incorporate what we learned. Congregational Leadership Development will become a prominent experience for many in the Central District (and throughout the conference) over the next few years.

We have been moving into a new way of relating with congregations, focusing on leadership development rather than administrative process. Charge Conferences (rather than all-church conferences) were implemented this year. These were chaired by visiting elders instead of by the Assistant to the Bishop. This allowed me time to visit with church leaders more often around issues of church renewal that are important to the local congregation. We have been in churches more in response to their expressed needs and that seems to be fruitful. Reports 205 The people and congregations of the Central District are molded in almost every way by the dramatic and beautiful geography of the region and by the way that our people are so widely scattered across the landscape. With notable exceptions we live here in big country and very small towns.

I have been amazed at the persistence of the congregations that embody the Methodist tradition and faith in Eastern Oregon. In many places our congregations are the only functioning non-government institution in their community. Our congregations in the Central District are often the primary places where people of faith and good will for their neighbors find partners, encouragement and support for the work they do to sustain their communities.

As is true across the connection, many of our congregations worry about their future viability. Dramatic economic shifts, declining populations, and political marginalization are affecting our churches in ways that are forcing us to reinvent how we define and do ministry. As is so often in the story of God’s people, these very challenges are often occasions for heroic faith, courageous mission, and inspiring innovation.

If you are wondering how we Methodists can remain faithful and fruitful in ministry in a time of limited finances, an uninterested and unsupportive general culture, and with a small number of people – look to many of our congregations of the Central District. We have been facing these challenges for years now, and many of our churches have moved through the difficult process of finding ways to do God’s will in the world as we find it, rather than the way we would like it to be.

I am filled with gratitude for all those who have kept the faith in the Central District. I am inspired to contemplate the ways in which God is preparing to share the faith with a whole new generation of disciples through our obedience and faithfulness today.

Metro District Lowell Greathouse, Assistant to the Bishop Norm Dyer, District Lay Leader

Although the names are Lincoln Street, Westside, Montavilla, Vermont Hills, and Fremont rather than being Corinth, Galatia, Ephesus, and Antioch, the churches of the Metro District resemble their earlier counterparts in many ways. Like these early churches, we are actively engaged in figuring out what it means to live our faith in the context of rapidly changing times. We are working through our own internal struggles and shortcomings as we live in community with one another. We are finding new ways to be in ministry in the settings in which we are located.

There are examples of churches in the district that have launched new ministries, such as the Hispanic Resource Center in Beaverton (which has already served the needs of hundreds of Hispanic individuals), and the work of Sunnyside UMC, which still serves weekly meals to the homeless, but now had opened their church facilities to the wider community through their Swap Shop. But there are also churches that are still trying to figure out what their mission really is and determine how to align their ministries to their mission fields. In short, we are a mixture of churches that are at various stages of health and vitality. We still have much to learn about what it means to be faithful today.

When you look around at what is happening at local churches in the Metro District, you see: more churches growing community gardens on their property, a significant number of churches hosting other congregations so that they can worship in their facilities, and an increasing number of churches exploring what it means to be more inclusive of all people.

While our district focus is on how to assist local churches as they develop their sense of health and vitality, nonetheless there have been a number of activities that happened at a district level that are worth noting: in January, 170 church leaders participated in a training event focused on the five practices of fruitful congregations; in February, 40 individuals gathered to learn how we can address the issue of poverty in our midst; in April, 40 leaders attended workshops on key local church responsibilities, looking at issues of leadership and organizational health; over 600 people participated in 40 Local Church 206 Reports Leadership Conversations this fall/winter; in January, eight pastors began participating in our Pastoral Leadership Development pilot project; and in August, a team of 15 individuals, representing five district churches, will be a part of a Volunteers in Mission team to UMCOR West in Salt Lake City.

These are simply the outputs of our assorted activities, not the real fruit of our missional work. But many of us are shifting our strategic efforts in ways that focus outward, create opportunities for systematic learning, engage people in deeper dialogue, and create experiments to shake us out of old patterns. There is still much to do as we begin walking together in new ways.

The most important work is happening at the local church level, where many are refocusing on mission and reaching out in new ways. There are signs of hope, but there are also examples of dysfunction and places where we are stuck. Mostly, we are a work in progress. As we introduce the Vital Church Project and deepen our focus on local church health and vitality, it is my hope that we’ll (1) establish a stronger learning community, (2) create more experiments in ministry, and (3) establish clear measurements so we know how we are making progress.

Snake River District Kim Fields, Assistant to the Bishop

This past year has been a year of change in the Snake River District. It all began with a name change. Last year at the Eastern District breakfast Mike Holloman led a successful campaign to change the name of our district from Eastern to Snake River. After four years of faithful service our District Superintendent Bob Flaherty left to become the pastor of the church in Newberg, Oregon, and Kim Fields was appointed to fill his shoes, but with the new title ofAssistant to the Bishop. As the Assistant to the Bishop Kim turned over charge conferences to presiding elders and appointed connecting elders to oversee the four colloquies. This enabled him to free up time to focus on equipping churches to be vital congregations. The first Pastoral Leadership Development group was kicked off in the Treasure Valley, churches were visited and consultations begun.

But that was just the beginning of the exciting things happening in the Snake River District. The Crossroads congregation faced the loss of their new church building one month only to receive it back the next month through the faithful work of their pastor, Gary Ross; the diligent efforts of hard working, generous laity; a complex package of conference assistance; and most of all the grace of God. Thanks to churches working together the UMYWE youth retreat was a great success again and the Treasure Valley youth added a second state-wide rally. Speaking of churches working together to do great things, the Church Leadership Institute featuring the trainers from the Church of the Resurrection was as inspirational as it was educational and we look forward to a second annual Leadership Institute next year on March 9 and 10, featuring Eric Geiger (author of Simple Church) and Sue Nelson Kibbey (recently of Ginghamsburg UMC). Despite the loss of membership across the denomination we can boast several churches that are doing very well and, with the recent growth at Meridian and Eagle, we now have the three largest churches in the conference. Still not all news is good and so it is with sadness that we say goodbye to Jody Felton who is moving to Nehalem Bay, Oregon and David Buechler who is stepping out of the pastoral ministry for a time but we are excited to welcome Kathy Abend and Jeff Rickman who join us from seminary.

All in all, though the workers may be few, the fields of the Snake River District are ripe for harvest, so the good news from the east is good news with potential to get even better.

Southern District Donna M.L. Pritchard, Assistant to the Bishop

“Growing healthy, vital churches who make disciples of Christ for the transformation of the world.” That has been the goal of the Southern District in this year! The change in title, from District Superintendent Reports 207 to Assistant to the Bishop, is just one outward and visible sign of some deeper, inward change designed to keep the focus on the local church and its mission.

Presiding Elders were recruited and trained to lead Charge Conferences throughout the district this year, freeing up the A2B to help congregations envision their ministry and its impact on their communities. To that end Local Church Leadership Conversations (LCLCs) were held in nearly every one of our churches. These meetings helped to clarify and inspire outwardly-focused, sustainable ministry. They also helped to strengthen our connection by brokering resources that can help congregations meet their ministry goals.

In January the first Pastoral Leadership Development (PLD) group began meeting monthly. Eight clergy from around the District are being led by two A2Bs in learning about leadership and the missional church. Monthly class sessions are augmented by significant reading and coaching toward action. In February the District Leadership Team presented “Takin’ It to the Streets,” an excellent Enrichment Event for laity and clergy, offering both inspiration and concrete help for churches to engage those beyond themselves. All of this learning and stretching is beginning to bear fruit in deeper lay/clergy partnerships for mission and in creative responses to the needs of our neighbors.

It has been my pleasure to serve the Southern District for the past eight years. As I leave this position I give God thanks and praise for the faithfulness of our churches and the courage of our people in facing the changes we must make to remain vital disciple-making congregations.

Western District Rev. Dr. Katherine Simmons Conolly, Assistant to the Bishop Mary Foote, District Lay Leader Linda Grund-Clampit, District Administrative Assistant

“My friends, what good is it to say you have faith, when you don’t do anything to show that you really do have faith? …Faith that doesn’t lead us to do good deeds is all alone and dead!” James 2:14a,17 (CEV)

The United Methodist congregations of the Western District have been living out their response to the Apostle James’ challenge. In March we gathered together to hear from Rev. Reggie McNeal about “missional church.” This was the latest in a series of annual Western District renewal events that provided food for thought and practical skills in turning our faith outward. All our learning and conversations are bearing fruit. We’ve seen God’s hand in our daily work and the presence of the Holy Spirit in our communities.

WD ministries are expanding in new directions. In Cornelius, “The Table” – a monthly dinner and bi-lingual discussion group, gathers to unite the community through the love and harvest of the Lord. In Forest Grove, The Grand Lodge is the setting for “Theology on Tap” – an unofficial but spiritually alive conversation group. Following the lead of Tillamook UMC, in-door playgroups are blessing Fellowship Halls during previously quiet hours. Most WD congregations are involved in some type of hunger ministry from food bank support to backpack programs to community gardens. In Salem, Trinity UMC hosts a food bank and community garden where students from the school next door share in the giving and the receiving. Dallas UMC has opened their building for a community meal called “James 2 Kitchen” and has experienced their first mission trip outside their community.

Keizer’s Clear Lake UMC sponsored their 12th annual trip to Mexicali, Mexico. This year a group from Clear Lake UMC, Canby UMC, and Wilsonville UMC supported their Mexican host church in planting seeds for a new congregation, even as they celebrated the growth of a satellite congregation they nurtured in the first six years of their trips. God rewards faithfulness in our work!

Relationships are valued and accepted on a “come as you are” basis. In McMinnville, 12 Step groups are welcomed any time, any day. Will the participants be in a pew on Sunday? Who cares – it’s their church, 208 Reports in their way, for their time. Silverton UMC welcomes teens and elders to the informal, contemporary “Dirt Road to Glory” Bible Study and Worship on Sunday evenings. Oregon City UMC’s “Ashley’s Closet” is the mission arm of the youth group, with a special focus on learning about and serving homeless youth in Oregon City and beyond.

These are just an intriguing sampling of the wonderful ministries being done in Western District communities by congregations whose concern and faith spill out of their church buildings.

In the months since our last Annual Conference, we’ve celebrated the lives of dear friends while weeping for our loss. These servants of Christ who’ve built our churches and energized our mission are remembered and honored by our continued dedication. In the United Methodist Church, our history fuels our future.

As the new year unfolds, we’ll stay open to the possibilities the Lord presents while walking the Christian path we cherish. Thanks be to God!

Seminaries & United Methodist-Related Schools

Africa University James H. Salley, Associate Vice-Chancellor for Institutional Advancement Africa University: Serving God. All the Time. Everywhere. Support from United Methodists around the world has enabled Africa University to strongly emerge from Zimbabwe’s recent economic and political crises.

“As we have endured Zimbabwe’s national crisis, we have, indeed discovered not only what we are, but reinforced whose we are,” says Dr. Fanuel Tagwira, vice chancellor. “We are preparing Africa’s newest generation of leaders while proclaiming our faith and allegiance to Jesus Christ.”

The University is preparing to celebrate its 20th anniversary of ministry and service to Africa in 2012.

The University offers its thanks to the 21 annual conferences that met 100 percent of their apportionments for the Africa University Fund. In 2010, United Methodists contributed nearly $2.2 million to the Africa University Fund. That represents more than 86 percent of the $2.5 million goal. The Fund supports general operating costs, such as faculty and staff salaries and upkeep of facilities.

While meeting apportionments is important, second mile giving to the University’s endowment for student scholarships is vital. Our students have a great need for scholarship support.

Africa University graduated 349 students in June 2010, and opened the 2010-2011 school year with 1,200 students representing 25 African countries. Since opening in 1992, more than 3,500 students have earned bachelor and master’s degrees. Africa University prepares leaders in theology, agriculture, business and social sciences, health sciences, and peace and justice.

Africa University’s curriculum and support of the surrounding community reflects our biblical commitment to service and our Wesleyan heritage. Our graduates are prepared to serve Africa in ways that reflect the church’s four areas of focus, ministering to the poor, combating diseases of poverty, creating and revitalizing congregations, and developing principled Christian leaders.

The 2010 graduating class included 39 recipients of the University’s inaugural Master’s Degree in intellectual property. They represented 15 African countries. Africa University is the first university in sub-Saharan Africa to offer this degree. It stresses the value of protecting intellectual property for the people of Africa. It is one more example of the ethos of the University – preparing leaders who remain in Africa to serve Africa. Reports 209 Another important aspect of the University is our commitment to gender diversity. Our student body is nearly evenly divided between females and males. That is a significant development in Africa – a positive sign for the expanding role of women across the continent.

Another positive sign is the commitment of African United Methodists to take an even more active role in supporting the University. African bishops broke ground in the 2010-2011 academic year on a new housing facility for staff – funded by annual conferences in Africa. This housing unit is expected to be ready for the opening of the 2011-2012 academic year in September.

Africa University is preparing to add additional cyber campuses. Student applications far outstrip our ability to educate students on our Old Mutare campus. That is why we are adding more locations to our on-line cyber courses. Our first virtual campus is located in Maputo, Mozambique.As we broaden our service to all of Africa, we are planning virtual campuses in the Democratic Republic of Congo, Liberia, Côte d’Ivoire and Sierra Leone. A key to the success of these cyber campuses will be our new, expanded ability to reach the world through the Internet. We recently finished connecting with a new high speed, fiber optic cable system that links Zimbabwe with the world.

All of this is happening through the prayers and financial support of United Methodists around the world. Encourage your church to meet its Africa University Fund shared ministry obligation this year. Your support is part of The United Methodist Church’s response to God’s call to serve Africa. Your support helps to prepare Africa’s next generation of leaders. They will spread the Gospel of Jesus Christ, improve health care and living conditions, expand business and commerce, and educate another generation of leaders in this rapidly changing region of the world.

Boston University School of Theology Mary Elizabeth Moore, Dean

Greetings from Boston University School of Theology, one of your United Methodist partners in mission! We thank you for your prayerful support of us through the past year, and will share some new developments in our School.

News flashes from the School! • New Faculty: We welcomed three new faculty this year and they are already contributing mightily to the life of STH. Dr. Walter Fluker is the Martin Luther King, Jr. Professor of Ethical Leadership. He teaches exciting courses, consults with international organizations on ethical leadership, and leads the Howard Thurman Papers Project, now based at STH. Dr. Christopher Evans is Professor of the History of Christianity and Methodist Studies. He brings expertise in American Christianity and the history and theology of Wesleyan traditions. Besides, he is a great teacher. Dr Courtney Goto is Assistant Professor of Religious Education, reviving the STH program in educational ministry with her distinctive interest in teaching and the arts. She has recently studied the artful ministry of her Japanese-American UMC congregation, especially its sanctuary art, worship, and Japanese garden. • New Curriculum: The new curriculum – “Faith Engaging the World” – has arrived, and we are discovering the potential of this curriculum to prepare spiritually-centered, prophetic, intelligent, practical religious leaders who can contribute to renewing and transforming the church and the world. Not only are M.Div. and M.T.S. students benefitting from the new curriculum, but we have also launched our new one-year Master of Sacred Theology program for military chaplains, responding to their increasing needs to address issues of ethics, trauma, and conflict transformation. • Church Connections: United Methodist Women will read two books authored or co-authored by our faculty in the UMW Mission Studies this summer: Dana Robert’s Joy to the World!: Mission in the Age of Global Christianity and Stephanie Hixon and Tom Porter’s The Journey: Forgiveness, Restorative Justice and Reconciliation. In addition, Bryan Stone and his students continue to initiate and support new church starts; several of our faculty and students have spoken or consulted with church boards and agencies; and our graduates are giving strong leadership in their home churches and conferences. 210 Reports • Global Connections: Travel seminars have studied this year in Ephesus (modern Turkey) and Russia, and the School has collaborated with people in Korea, China, South Africa, Norway, and Australia. Dr. Thomas Thangaraj has been Visiting Professor in Global Christianity and Mission, teaching courses in Images of Christ and Christian Encounters with Hinduism. Professor Dana Robert, Truman Collins Professor of World Christianity and Mission, delivered the opening keynote address in the 100th anniversary of the Edinburgh World Missionary Conference and in the opening convocation of the 2010 Boston Conference: The Changing Contours of World Mission and Christianity. The Reverend Canon Ted Karpf, recently of the World Health Organization, has joined our team as Director of Development. He is already building new global connections that will challenge and stretch us! • Contextual Engagement: The School received a grant of $200,000 to support its LINC program – Learning in a Nexus of Communities. We continue to build partnerships with local churches and service agencies, as we contextualize theological education at STH. We are grateful to the Arthur Vining Davis Foundations for supporting these efforts. • Community Building: Community life is buzzing with dynamic weekly worship, followed by a community meal, and with daily morning prayer. We have expanded our efforts to strengthen community and spiritual life with the addition of a Spiritual Life Coordinator, the Reverend Robin Olson, and the addition of a Coordinator of Communications and International Student Life, Philippa Mpunzwana. • Sustainability Charge: We have charged ourselves to build toward greater sustainability, having implemented energy conserving practices, designed a green community center for our basement, and launched an intentional living community for some of our students in the “Green House.”

Still to Come! • New faculty searches: We are presently searching for faculty in preaching, pastoral theology, and history of Christianity. • People’s History: The STH People’s History Project continues, and we have had some wonderful oral history interviews with alums this year. Contact the Alumni Office if you are interested in sharing your story with us: (617) 353-2349. • Lifelong Learning: Our work in lifelong learning has just begun, but we have begun collaborations with churches and other educational institutions to respond to the needs of local churches, clergy, and lay leaders. We welcome your ideas. • Alumni Networking: We are decentralizing alumni activity to conferences and regions in order to facilitate the exchange of ideas, knowledge and collaborations. Jaclyn Jones is the point of contact for these efforts to stimulate the connection between alumni and Boston University School of Theology. Jaclyn is reached at [email protected].

We are abundantly grateful for our BU graduates and friends in your conference, and also for our church partners throughout the United Methodist connection. We continue to pray for you and we welcome your prayers for us. We are in this ministry together!

Candler School of Theology Jan Love, Dean and Professor of Christianity and World Politics

Candler School of Theology prepares real people to make a real difference in the real world. Our distinctive commitment to authentic discipleship and relevant ministry enables us to develop uniquely well-rounded leaders who are challenged academically, encouraged spiritually, and immersed in Christian service from the first day they arrive on campus.

Candler’s student body continues to reflect the diversity and breadth of the Christian faithful. Our enrollment stands at 469, with 358 seeking the Master of Divinity, 67 the Master of Theological Studies, 16 the Master of Theology, 14 the Doctor of Theology, and 14 enrolled as Special, Non-Degree students. The total student population is 25% US ethnic minority, 9% international, and 52% women. Forty-six denominations are represented, with 52% of MDiv students being United Methodist. The median age of our entering class of MDiv students is 26, with 57% of total enrollment under thirty. Reports 211 To ensure that our students are prepared for leadership in an increasingly global context, Candler continues its emphasis on internationalizing the curriculum. This fall, Rev. Dr. Beauty Maenzanise, dean of the theology faculty at Africa University in Zimbabwe, joined us as the 2010-11 McDonald Chair in the Study of Jesus and Culture, and the Rev. Dr. Margot Kaessmann, former head of the 14 million- member Protestant church in Germany, joined us for a semester as visiting Theologian-in-Residence. This year, Candler has academic exchange partnerships with theology schools across five continents and nine countries, including many related to The United Methodist Church. In addition to our ongoing summer internship program with the Methodist Church in the Bahamas, Candler once again partnered with International Relief and Development, Inc., to send eight student interns as far as Cambodia and as near as Gulfport, Miss., to address a broad range of issues, including democracy and governance, HIV/AIDS, child poverty and mortality, and community development. Travel seminars in 2010-2011 include the Middle East Travel Seminar in May-June and World Methodist Evangelism Institute evangelism seminars to the Philippines, India, and Colombia.

A hallmark of the Candler MDiv experience, the two-year Contextual Education program shapes our students’ pastoral identities by interweaving service at ministry sites and churches with academic analysis in the classroom and spiritual reflection in pastor-led small groups. In any given week, Candler deploys more than 250 ConEd students throughout the region to minister to people in congregations, hospitals, and social service agencies. This year, we will expand Candler Advantage, a program designed to pay rising third-year MDiv students for summer internships in congregations so they can concentrate fully on honing their pastoral skills beyond the first two years of ConEd.

Candler’s Lifelong Learning events strengthen the church by providing opportunities for clergy and lay leaders to learn more about the practice of ministry. Fall Conference 2010 focused on conflict transformation; the spring event featured poet, author, and funeral director Tom Lynch along with Candler’s own Tom Long, addressing “The Good Funeral.” The 2011 Fall Conference highlights “The Art of Preaching in the 21st Century,” with a chance to learn from some of the most respected names in preaching.

In addition to our Lifelong Learning events, Candler oversees the educational process of more than 900 people each year through the Course of Study regional school and our five extension schools in the Southeast.

Candler draws considerable vitality and inspiration from its relationship with The United Methodist Church. Our ability to fulfill our mission ofeducating faithful and creative leaders for the church’s ministries in the world depends upon your support, gifts, and prayers. Thank you for the countless ways you strengthen this essential ministry in the life of our denomination. We invite you to visit us in person in Atlanta or online at www.candler.emory.edu to see firsthand how Candler preparesreal people to make a real difference in the real world.

Drew Theological School The Rev. Dr. Kah-Jin Jeffrey Kuan, Ph.D., Dean/Professor of Hebrew Bible

My predecessor, Dean Maxine Beach, has said me that Drew University Theological School is “a special place” on more than one occasion. Since coming to Drew, I have begun to see how right she is. It is a welcoming, hospitable, and caring community. We do not pretend to be a perfect community but we strive hard to welcome all who come through our doors and care for the shalom, the well-being, of each individual and as well as the Common Good.

Drew is “a special place” because of the many ways we seek to equip and empower leaders for Christian ministry through the numerous programs we offer: • M.Div., S.T.M., M.A., M.A.Min., D.Min., and Ph D.; • Continuing Education opportunities for pastors and lay people; • Internships through Communities of Shalom in Shalom zones world wide • Partnership for Religious Education in Prisons program in a local men’s prison and women’s prison, 212 Reports where Drew students and inmates study and learn together; • Certification in Spiritual Formation and Camp and Retreat; • Cross-Cultural Courses in India, Turkey, El Salvador, Mexico, Taize, and Ghana; • United Methodist Liaison and Deacon Liaison to assist students in their discernment.

In my first weeks, I have begun to visit churches and alumni in the vicinity. I believe very strongly that we can only do theological education with communities, both communities of faith and other kinds of communities that our alumni serve. In many ways, we owe a debt to our churches and other agencies that work with us to train and form our students for leadership.

We take pride in having a faculty that is perhaps one of the most diverse in theological education with an almost equal number of women and men. Our student body is equally diverse. We take seriously our United Methodist identity. Drew is well positioned to be a leading progressive United Methodist seminary. I welcome ongoing dialogue as we work together to shape a vision in equipping the saints for ministry. Together we can make Christian disciples that transform the world.

Pacific School of Religion Kathi McShane, Vice President for Institutional Advancement

Pacific School of Religion and its President Riess Potterveld send greetings to the Oregon-Idaho Conference of the United Methodist Church.

A multidenominational Christian seminary, PSR has been preparing bold leaders for historic and emerging faith communities since its founding in 1866. Our graduates are known for innovative ministries of compassion and justice around the globe—in urban and rural parishes, higher education, pastoral counseling, the arts, public policy, and many other fields. PSR is a member of the Graduate Theological Union (GTU), a consortium of nine Bay Area seminaries.

This year, 248 students are studying in a variety of degree programs at PSR. 55% are female; 45% are male. 26% are under 30; 24% are over 50. 27 students (18%) are United Methodist, and they are surrounded by a cohort of United Methodist faculty and staff: Boyung Lee (Associate Professor of Educational Ministries and member of the New England Annual Conference), Virginia Chase (Director of Field Education and member of the Rocky Mountain Annual Conference), Karen Oliveto (Adjunct Professor of United Methodist History, Doctrine and Polity), and Kathi McShane (Vice President for Institutional Advancement). We both celebrate and mourn the loss of Jeffrey Kuan to his new position as Dean of Drew University School of Theology!

Annual tuition for a full-time student is just over $15,000. All across the country, seminary enrollment is declining, as churches shrink and full-time positions for clergy are harder to find. While we have always been concerned about the level of student debt that PSR students graduate with, those concerns have taken on a new urgency and have contributed to lower enrollment figures for several years now.

Like many other seminaries, PSR is in the process of “right-sizing” its operations to meet these new realities. Some staff positions have been eliminated, and the size of the faculty has been reduced. All faculty and staff have taken reductions in the rate of pension contributions and compensation. Some programs have been modified. The Earl Lectures move to an every-other-year schedule.

These reductions will allow PSR to be a better steward of the generous support of its friends and donors. They also allow the school to move forward with a renewed vision for the future of theological education. We will move toward more collaborative work with our GTU partners, including shared faculty and administrative resources. We will be offering more classes on-line, not only to students in degree programs, but to lay persons who are seeking intellectual and academic content to bolster their spiritual lives and to enhance their leadership abilities in local churches. There will be more continuing education offerings for clergy, in a “flexible learning” environment—both in person and on-line. The Doctor of Ministry program is being substantially revised. Reports 213 The challenges being faced by the seminary parallel those being faced by the church. We are together imagining new shapes for communities of faithful disciples of Jesus Christ, and Pacific School of Religion takes seriously its mission of preparing leaders for those communities.

JASON LEE AWARD

Jason Lee’s frontiers were geographic and religious. The frontiers of our honorees are electronic, the printing press, the camera. They cover the ethical spiritual spectrum. With them we share our legacy, the spirit of Jason Lee.

Believing that the Christian mission today ranks high among human endeavors for good and, at its best, constitutes divine action in meeting human needs; and

Believing that prompt and skillful presentation through the mass media is essential for optimum impact of the work of Christ, in this fast moving age;

The Jason Lee Award was instituted by the Public Relations Commission (now the Communications Committee) of the Oregon Annual Conference (of which the Oregon-Idaho Conference is the successor), and was given to persons cited for “excellence through work in or use of media that reaches beyond the local church.” Although the award was discontinued in 2007, it continues to be recorded here for historical purposes.

Bishop’s Award

In June of 2005, Bishop Robert Hoshibata insti- tuted a new honor in the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference. Titled the Bishop’s Award, this recognition is bestowed upon lay persons who have demonstrated exemplary service to the An- nual Conference. Bishop’s Award recipients do not know before the presentation that they are to receive this special honor, so annual conference members enjoy seeing the surprise unfold.

Variations in this stated policy may be approved by a 2/3 majority vote of the Cabinet. If after five years following the sale of a parsonage and the investment of the proceeds, a congregation still wishes to pay a housing allowance in lieu of providing a parsonage, with the approval of the Cabinet 100% of the interest earned may be used for providing a housing allowance. If after eight (8) years the congregation still wants to continue pay¬ing a housing allowance instead of providing a parsonage, the congregation may, with the approval of the Cabinet and the decision of a duly called Charge Conference, use all or any part of the corpus of the investment for any capital improve¬ment or construction of any building owned by the congregation.. 12.064 Each local church shall conduct a well-planned and comprehensive stewardship campaign annually which contacts each member. 12.066 Any church receiving Equitable or Supplemental salary support from the conference shall be required to conduct an annual planned giving program (Loyalty Sunday, Every Member Visitation, Circuit Rider, etc.) approved by the District Superintendent. 12.070 Clergy Salaries.

He retired, in body but not in spirit, to the John Day-Prarie City area in 1988.

Margery Kerr July 18, 1928--November 30, 2010

Born in Brooklyn, New York in 1928, Margery “Midge” Kerr was one of eight siblings – all of whom are still alive today. Midge’s family loved music and from a very early age she also fell in love with music. Midge learned to play the piano, organ and cello.

Midge wanted to go to college to study music, but because of all the soldiers returning from World War II and taking advantage of the GI Bill, she was not able to attend school in New York. So she left home and went to college at the Western School for Girls in Ohio where she majored in Music. It was in college on a blind date that Midge met her future husband, Chuck Kerr, who was studying to be a minister at another college. They married in 1951. Midge gave birth to three children – Nat, David and Tim, and adopted Lauri and Peter. She has six grandchildren and two great grandchildren.

Midge spent many years working with computers. Early in her career she worked as a computer data processor in the insurance industry. She worked in similar positions for Mount Hood Community College and the Oregon State Mental Hospital before retiring.

The Kerr family loved to camp together. Sometimes they would spend up to two weeks out in the woods camping, fishing, eating and just enjoying each other’s company. They also took trips back east to New York, New Jersey and Ohio to visit family. Midge and Chuck had the good fortune to be sponsored for a 24-day trip through Europe and the Holy Lands. They toured England, Israel, Germany and Austria. They enjoyed the adventure, but after 24 days of living out of a suitcase, they were glad to be home.

After 20 years in the Keizer-Salem area, the Kerrs retired and enjoyed spending more time together. While living on a golf course, Midge learned to play golf. She continued to exercise her love of music by performing with many musical groups: Midge played cello with the Salem Pops, and in many string quartets and trios before moving to Rose Villa in 2007. 244 Memoirs Mildred Mae Miller January 16, 1921–February 23, 2011

Memoirs 245 Clarissa Nichols May 2, 1923--March 14, 2011

Clarissa “Curty” Nichols was born in Dallas, Oregon. Along with her siblings Alvin, Wilma and Ruthie, she grew up in the Willamette Valley, graduating from Salem High School in 1941. While in high school, she met the love of her life, Elliot “Nick” Nichols, whom she first dated at her high school senior prom. They married on August 28, 1942, and enjoyed a good marriage for over 68 years. Curty was invested in raising her four children: Janice, Larry, Kent and Brian. Cherished by family and friends for her persistently positive attitude and playful way of being, Curty was a fine baker, a lover of pinochle and a person always ready to open her heart to others. She was also a very strong and resourceful person, raising her first child Jan, for a year and a half on her own while Nick was in the service, and later stepping up to help out in the various clothing stores Nick managed or owned. Being an activities director at a nursing home for several years gave her a fine outlet for her good cheer and ability to love unconditionally. When Nick became a Methodist minister in middle life, Curty became his partner in yet another way, serving as a very popular minister’s wife in the several churches they served together in Oregon. Curty loved to read and to learn with others, and was a wonderful mentor to everyone she came in contact with, simply by being herself.

Curty is survived by her husband, Nick, her four children and their spouses, her five grandchildren, and five great-grandchildren. She will be missed greatly, tough her family will remember her especially in trying to emulate the friendly compassion and persistent kindness that she expressed so fully for nearly 88 years.

Their first pastorate was in a small church in Parker, CO which they served while he attended Iliff School of Theology in Denver. Because this was the midst of the Depression the church was hard pressed to pay them - so they also ran the local Parker News newspaper, setting the type by hand on a linotype from their basement.

Mrs. McGhee and her husband also ran a newspaper in LaMonte, MO for a few years before beginning full-time ministry in Toronto, KS.

Neita was an excellent pianist and known for her love of poetry and the many quotes that were a part of her daily life. She often wrote poems for her family on their birthdays and special occasions and wrote very well. She did the daily crossword everyday over the last 20 years and had an amazing knowledge of the modern world because of it.

Dorothy Tennant September 30, 1918--May 30, 2010

At age 91, Dorothy Tennant gracefully left this world from her home in Island County, Washington. Born in Jones County, Iowa, to Joseph and Dora Fisher, she was one of six children who came of age during the Great Depression. She was the first female in her extended family, not only to graduate from high school, but to attend college as well. It was during her time at Cornell College in Mount Vernon, Iowa, that she met William “Bill” Tennant, whom she married in July 1940.

Prior to marriage, she was a teacher in a one-room school house in rural Iowa. Her passion for public education was solidified at this time and was a constant throughout her life. After getting married, she moved to Boston to join her spouse as he completed graduate school. Upon completing his degree work, and being ordained as clergy in the Methodist Church, they moved to Junction City, Oregon. Toward the end of World War II, Bill became a chaplain and commissioned officer in the US Navy. This took them to many places in both the United States and the world during Bill’s military career.

Dorothy’s love of people and places was evident throughout her life. Whether it was a new duty station or a place discovered during their many travels, she explored each locale with delight, learning about the culture, history, and community. She shared her experiences with family and friends, opening new windows in many lives with art, history, dance, theatre, and always music. She was a writer of letters, a lover and performer of music, a painter, a talented creator of textiles, an inspired cook, a loving parent and spouse, and a true citizen of the world. Those that met her met a friend. Those she loved had someone wise, kind, and supportive in their corner. Her children always knew that their mother was on their side, cheering them on, and loving them unconditionally. In her presence, joys were multiplied and sorrows diminished.

She is survived by her daughters and their spouses: Margot E. Tennant (Charles Skow) of Coupeville, WA., Kathryn E. Rogers (Raymond Rogers) of Greenbank, WA., Barbara E. Tennant-Batson (Miller Batson) of Twisp WA.; her much beloved grandsons Alexander Tennant-Jayne, Bradley Rogers, Thomas Rogers, Noah Tennant-Batson and Nathaniel Tennant-Batson, and her sisters Marian Tillett of Wyoming and Mildred Knight of South Carolina.

Organized Christianity began in the Oregon Territory in 1834 when Jason Lee, a Methodist minister from New England, responded to a call seeking a preacher to fulfill a request by Native Americans who had visited St. Louis. The exact reason for their visit is uncertain, but it was widely reported in church circles at the time that these Indians were seeking religious instruction for their people about “the white man’s Book of Heaven” they had heard about from white fur traders and trappers. The report of their visit fired the imagination of many people in the churches.The Methodist Board of Missions was the first to react by sending Lee over the Oregon Trail as head of a party consisting of his nephew and three lay persons. Their purpose was to establish a missionary effort aimed at converting the indigenous Native Americans and teaching them the arts of civilization. On the way to Oregon, near the present town of Blackfoot, Idaho, Lee preached to a gathering of trappers in a service that is regarded as the first formal Protestant sermon in theWest. The party reached Fort Vancouver, according to Lee, “after a long and fatiguing journey, replete with mercies, deprivations, toil, and prosperity” and received a warm welcome by John McLoughlin of the Hudson’s Bay Co. McLoughlin advised Lee to establish his mission in the Willamette Valley. The first station was about ten miles north of the present Salem where Lee organized a Class, the normal 19th century way for Methodism to begin a local church. Almost immediately they began caring for several orphaned Indian children. They moved later to a place they called by an Indian name, Chemeketa, on a site which is now Willamette University. They wasted no time in putting up buildings and establishing gardens for food. Soon Lee saw the need for more personnel. In 1837 a physician, a blacksmith, a carpenter, four unmarried female teachers and two more ordained ministers arrived to reinforce the mission. Then in 1838 Jason Lee set out on the long journey east to recruit more missionaries and to raise money for the Oregon Mission. On this same trip he also delivered a petition to Congress urging them to make Oregon a territory of the United States. Lee and his associates were not notably successful at converting Indians, although they believed they were preaching the pure Gospel. One of the early reinforcements of clergy to the mission, Gustavus Hines, described their preaching in this way: “We preached to them the Gospel as well as we could... giving them an account of the creation of the world, the fall of man, the advent, sufferings, death, and resurrection, ascension and intercession of Christ to save mankind from sin, death, and hell.” The lack of response by the Indians was due in part to the heavy losses among the Indian people to various white- born diseases for which they had no immunities. By 1840 there were stations fixed at Nisqually, Clatsop, Umpqua (Wilbur), Wascopam (The Dalles), Willamette (Chemeketa—now Salem), and Willamette Falls (Oregon City). (The Nisqually mission at the southern end of Puget Sound, was the first U.S. settlement north of the Columbia River and West of the Cascades.) What started out as a foreign mission to the Indians in the Oregon Territory, soon became a ministry to the increasing number of white American settlers coming by wagon train over the Oregon Trail and by ship around the Horn. To meet this unexpected need, Lee helped found the white-settler oriented churches in Salem and Oregon City. Lee’s tenure as head of the mission ended, however, when the Methodist Episcopal Board of Missions judged (from unclear evidence) that the mission operations were becoming a secular rather than a spiritual mission. Taking action unknown to Lee at the time, they recalled him and appointed George Gary to de-secularize the Oregon Mission. Gary followed orders but soon resigned to be replaced in 1847 by William Roberts, a friend of Lee’s who shared Lee’s missionary zeal to both Indians and whites. In 1849 William Roberts formally organized the Oregon and California Mission Conference that included the present states of Oregon, Idaho, Washington, California, Arizona, Nevada, New Mexico, and part of Montana! Though this vast territory included many Methodist “preaching places” most of the churches were in the Willamette Valley — Salem Circuit, Oregon City, Portland, Yamhill Circuit, Marys River Circuit and Astoria and Clatsop, a few in northern California, and one in Santa Fe. The gold rush to California soon changed everything as more preaching places arose in California than in all the rest of the Conference combined. It also caused a huge migration of men out of the Willamette Valley. In 1852 the Oregon and California Mission Conference was divided; the northern part became The Oregon Conference. At its first session in 1853 there were twenty-one traveling preachers who along with 258 Historical

Superintendent William Roberts and Bishop Edward Ames organized the conference. Gold was discovered in the Boise Basin in 1860, swelling the population to nearly 15,000 persons, most of whom rushed from one “strike” to another. These soldiers of fortune seemed like a “different breed” from the pioneer farmers of the Willamette Valley; they were much harder to evangelize, as ministers sent by the Oregon Conference soon realized. C. S. Kingsley, a retired Methodist preacher living in Idaho City, comments on this in a letter he wrote to a friend: “It is a hard soil to cultivate. People forget God up here, except to profane his name. You can hardly appreciate our difficulties, if you have never been in a mining camp.” Idaho City was one of the richest gold camps and rife with corruption and lawless behavior (“sheriffs were bandits, bankers were thieves, and drifters, gamblers, whores, pimps, and other social leaches pretty well ran the city”). In 1863 a miner who had been converted to Methodism in the gold fields of California arrived in Idaho City before any Methodist circuit riders.Within a week of his arrival, he canvassed the town and discovered four Methodists. He organized them into a Class. Three months later C. S. Kingsley organized a Society and within a year a building was built. In 1864 the General Conference designated the Boundaries of the Oregon Annual Conference to include only the State of Oregon and the Washington Territory. Idaho was not included, though in 1865 William Roberts, then Presiding Elder of the Willamette District, was appointed by the Missionary Society as the superintendent of Methodist work in Idaho with the expectation that a new Conference would soon be organized. It was not until 1873, however, that the Oregon Annual Conference was divided along the crest of the Cascades, creating two conferences, one of which included eastern Oregon, eastern Washington Territory, and Idaho Territory. Then in 1884 a Conference was formed that included only eastern Oregon and Idaho Territory. Two of the new conference’s most famous pioneer preachers were “Brother Van” Orsdell from Montana, and Thomas Iliff from Utah. The United Brethren Church had a number of members who migrated to Oregon. In 1849 a German American farmer, George Bethers, who lived on a land claim near Corvallis, wrote a letter to a United Brethren periodical asking for a preacher to be sent to Oregon. It took four years to raise enough money to send Rev. Thomas Jefferson Connor who established the first Class at the Union School house in Benton County in 1854. In 1867, Rev. Connor organized Philomath College with a starting enrollment of 100 students. In addition to the United Brethren, the Methodist Episcopal Church, South, began work in Oregon in 1858, establishing their first Class at the McFarland School House (between present day Corvallis and Monroe). The Class established in Corvallis later on bought the buildings and grounds of a bankrupt school called Corvallis College. The church made it a very successful school that ultimately was designated as the Agricultural College of Oregon. The Methodist Church, South, however, in a few years gave up its part of the school, which then became Oregon Agricultural College (later, Oregon State University). The work of these early pastors and circuit riders was not for the faint of heart. One early preacher records that “we [he and his wife] have slept many times in barns with the horses and cattle, sometimes in the wagon, or on the ground under the trees of the forest: in weariness and painfulness, in watchings often, in hunger and thirst.” He adds, “But we are richer today for these experiences, and would gladly spend another life in the same way.” Camp Meetings were the primary tool for recruiting church members in Methodism up until about 1900. In 1843 Jason Lee conducted the first camp meeting for white people ever held in Oregon. A pioneer describes a camp meeting held in the Willamette Valley about 1855: “Perhaps a thousand people were gathered. They had come in their ox wagons...many had traveled fifty miles...to renew here the experiences and rekindle the emotions of the old life beyond the Rocky Mountains...One of the older missionaries preached at 8 o’clock...At 11:00 the Presiding Elder of the Willamette District ascended the stand and delivered one of his great religious orations. At 2:00 p.m. one of the younger men who had entered the work...was the preacher. At night a still younger man...was put on the stand.” Camp Meetings gradually declined as preachers moved toward large revival meetings sponsored by local churches in their communities. Both provided a working model for the Sunday morning worship services in early northwest Methodist churches. One of the most urgent concerns of the Oregon Mission was to establish schools, at first for Indians and later for white children. This task was originally delegated to Cyrus Shepherd, a trained teacher with experience in New England schools. Lee was proud of what Shepherd was doing in what Historical 259 became known as the Indian Mission Manual Labor School. The school didn’t survive Lee’s replacement who sold the building to the Oregon Mission, which had formed a school for white children, The Oregon Institute, of which Willamette University was the direct outgrowth and successor. During the early years of the Mission, there were no public schools, but there was intense interest in children receiving an education. Methodist clergy often led moves to develop facilities and instruction either sponsored by the church or the community. From 1858 to 1865 there were five Methodist preachers who were county superintendents of common schools. In addition, the church started several schools of its own: The Portland Academy, Santiam Academy, Umpqua (or Wilbur) Academy, Oregon City Academy and Female Seminary, Sheridan Academy, Ashland College, Drain Academy and the aforementioned Corvallis College of the M.E. Church, South. Membership in the Oregon Conference showed both periods of growth and periods of decline beginning from the 1850s. By 1970 the membership was 67,215. However, this figure is the result of the 1969 merger of the Oregon and Idaho Conferences and does not reflect the time when membership in both conferences was declining. This decline continued down to 1997 when the membership was reported as 39,129. A number of mergers have enriched and pluralized Methodism in Oregon since 1900. Oregon members of the Pacific German Conference (which was organized in 1905) were merged with the Oregon Conference in 1928. Nationally, three Methodist bodies—Methodist Episcopal Church, Methodist Episcopal Church, South, and Methodist Protestant Church—in 1939 agreed, as one church historian wrote, “to kiss and make peace.” This merger created The Methodist Church and involved the merger of several Oregon congregations and conferences. A Japanese Provisional Conference had been established in 1940 on the west coast but then the members in Oregon merged with the Oregon Conference in 1964. In 1968 the Evangelical United Brethren Church nationally merged with the Methodist Church, creating The United Methodist Church. Most EUB churches in Oregon chose to form a new denomination, though a few congregations merged with the Oregon Conference. In 1969 negotiations were completed for the merger of the Idaho Conference with the Oregon Conference to form the present Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference. Currently, in Oregon Methodism the fastest growing ethnic group has been the establishment and growth of Korean Methodist congregations. Two new Korean congregations have been established within the bounds of the conference. Women preachers have been an important part of Oregon and Idaho Methodism. Some revivalist preachers were women and over the years the conference (and its predecessors) have had many women who were “supply” pastors serving local congregations, some of whom had what was termed a “local ordination.” The Idaho conference received its first woman, Grace Weaver, into full connection in 1958. The Oregon conference received its first woman, Ernestine Hitchcock, into full connection in 1960. In 1997 the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference was among the top 11 conferences with the highest percentage of women clergy (21.3% compared with the national average of 15.2%.). The style and content of preaching in Methodist churches in the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference has evolved in many forms. The circuit riders and itinerant preachers preached a message aimed at the sinner to repent and be converted. Thomas Pearne, the longtime editor of the Pacific Christian Advocate wrote in his memoirs that Methodist preaching in Oregon stressed the guilt and danger of sinners. Humor and sentiment were common in preaching. It was said that a Methodist preacher judged his (there were no ordained women among the circuit riders) sermon by the number of people weeping and thus ready to seek a new life. It took the pragmatism of an Oregon preacher, however, to remind his readers that it is not best to keep penitent people kneeling too long because they might “forget the sorrow of a broken heart by feeling the tortures of painful knees.” The style and content of Methodist preaching gradually evolved from preaching for a conversion and preaching the moral and good life, to preaching toward problems and issues facing the lives of people. Many preachers today use the Revised Common Lectionary as the basis for sermons. Issues that the Oregon-Idaho Conference has dealt with have varied from how to keep the many schools and academies afloat financially, how to increase membership in the conference, how to increase the life of the Spirit among Methodists, and how best to organize themselves for effective ministry. Over the years, the Conference recognized the importance of camping experiences for young people. A camping program using several camp and retreat sites in both states has been developed that is currently one of the finest in United Methodism. Many social issues have concerned the conference through the years. The internment of Japanese- 260 Historical

Americans on the west coast at the outset of World War II was denounced by several Methodist clergy who brought the issue to the conference. A couple of them paid a severe price for their advocacy of justice for the Japanese-American people. Various forms of pacifism were advocated in conference debates during World War II, culminating in official censure ofWillamette University for its acceptance of an Air R.O.T.C. training program on the campus. At the end of the twentieth century, the liveliest debates were on issues surrounding homosexuality. Two preachers from this Annual Conference have been elected to the episcopacy. The first was Bruce R. Baxter, who was president of Willamette University when he was elected in 1940. The second person was Minerva Carcaño, who was serving as the superintendent of the Metropolitan District when she was elected by the Jurisdictional Conference in 2004. What of the future? According to Shakespeare, “the past is prologue.” But prologue to what? It is not given to us to know. Perhaps what we can be most sure of was summed up by an historian of Oregon Methodism, Robert Peters (a retired member of the Conference): This conference has had to think of the plodding task, the often disappointed task of seeing that we’re not living in the glory days. Our glory, as a matter of fact, is not in spectacular achievement. It is rather in being faithful to the witness, to the word of hope. ... God called us to this place when it was a rustic frontier to remind each Indian, each settler, that God cared what happened here, how we live with our lives and how we built our society. And that God does not leave us alone ever, wherever we may be in seeking to be faithful. That’s our task. It’s ever been our task, and it shall be our task on into our future.
