116 Strategic Direction

A Strategic Direction for the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference Statement of Mission and Vision Boldly Making Disciples of Jesus Christ Vitalizing the Church, Transforming the World Missional Priorities - Practicing Personal and Social Holiness “Jesus answered, “The first is, ‘Hear, O Israel: the Lord our God, the Lord is one; you shall love the Lord your God with all your heart, and with all your soul, and with all your mind, and with all your strength.’ The second is this, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ There is no other commandment greater than these.” (Mark 12:29-31) The promise and power of the gospel spring from the personal encounter with God through Jesus Christ. The church is vitalized and the world transformed when our discipleship is empowered by the faithful practice of personal and social holiness.

• By affirming this priority, the annual conference commits to leading persons to commend their lives to God, nurturing persons to give God their best in Christian living, and reaching out to the world in love as disciples that live compassionately and justly.

- Making New Disciples “Go therefore and make disciples of all nations, baptizing them in the name of the Father and of the Son and of the Holy Spirit, and teaching them to obey everything that I have commanded you. And remember, I am with you always, to the end of the age.” (Matthew 28:19-20) The mission of the Church is to make disciples of Jesus Christ. The church is vitalized and the world is transformed through a core commitment to boldly make disciples of Jesus Christ. Disciple-making is not reserved for those within the fellowship of the congregation, but is extended graciously to those beyond the congregation through respectful invitation, compassionate caring, and words and deeds that heal and free.

• By affirming this priority, the annual conference commits to proclaim the good news of Jesus Christ in word and action and to seek, welcome and gather persons into the body of Christ.

- Encouraging Excellence in Lay & Clergy Leadership “You are the light of the world. A city built on a hill cannot be hid. No one after lighting a lamp puts it under the bushel basket, but on the lampstand, and it gives light to all in the house. In the same way, let your light shine before others, so that they may see your good works and give glory to your Father in heaven.” (Matthew 5:14-16) Persons, lay and ordained, are called and gifted by God to provide leadership in the church and in the world beyond the church. The church is vitalized and the world transformed when lay and clergy leaders strive for excellence by recognizing, affirming and developing their spiritual gifts for leadership.

• By affirming this priority, the annual conference commits to developing lay and clergy leaders that give God their best so that through their leadership, the church may give God its best.

- Aligning with Our Strategic Direction “Everyone then who hears these words of mine and acts on them will be like a wise man who built his house on rock. The rain fell, the floods came, and the winds blew and beat on that house, but it did not fall, because it had been founded on rock.” (Matthew 7:24, 25)

Profound need and abundant grace call the church into action. A vital church is clear about its purpose and is an effective agent of transformation in the world when it “keeps the main thing the main thing.”

• By affirming this priority, the annual conference commits to devoting its energies and resources to its mission and vision, aligning ministries with the missional priorities and freeing itself from those things that distract and detract.

Living the Connection #1 Thursday, June 10, 2010 1:00 pm

CALL TO ORDER Bishop Bob Hoshibata called the 42nd session of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference to order at 1:00 pm, using his beloved Idaho potato masher as a gavel.

ORGANIZATIONAL MOTIONS The conference secretary presented these Organizational Motions: 1. The printed conference program is hereby adopted as the official agenda with such changes as will be proposed from time to time by the Agenda chair. 2. The pre-conference reports are hereby accepted for changes and perfections as determined by annual conference actions. 3. The bar of the conference shall be established as the seats at the tables in the meeting room, excluding the hospitality table, the floor manager’s table, and tables in the conference office. 4. The conference staff, interpreters, readers, mentors, technicians, and pages who do not hold voting privileges are allowed the privilege of working within the bar of the conference. 5. Clergy members of other annual conferences currently serving within the bounds of the Oregon- Idaho Annual Conference under par. 346.1 of the Book of Discipline shall be allowed seats within the bar of the conference, with voice but no vote. 6. The printed minutes of each Living the Connection session will be available at the conference office here onsite at the end of each day. Corrections should be given to the Conference Secretary. Motions passed.

OPENING WORSHIP Worship began with the gathered assembly singing together Charles Wesley’s traditional hymn, “And Are We Yet Alive.” Worship included an address by Bishop Hoshibata, who had accepted a challenge from the Rev. Clay Andrew to wear a very distinctive pair of pants (made by the same company who provided the pants worn during the 2010 Winter Olympics by the Norwegian Curling Team). The bishop outlined the new tools in his toolbox ( a reference to last year’s appearance by “Bishop Bob the Transformer”): this new venue (the Salem Conference Center), a new learning opportunity (Leadership Institute@Annual Conference), a leaner budget (which is an invitation to do ministry in new and creative ways), NRSVLT (New Revised Standard Version of the Leadership Team), and most importantly, God’s presence and reassurance. Conference members were reminded that we’re already on our way to Embracing Change, and he invited everyone to join him in growing healthy and vital congregations in the days ahead.

TABLE TALK Peg Lofsvold had distributed questions to each table; members were instructed to choose one or more questions to discuss at their tables. The questions were: 1) The world is changing rapidly around us. How have you experienced those changes in your own life and in your church? 2) What changes are happening in the community around your church? 3) How do these changes make you feel? Answer sheets were collected at the end of the 15-minute Table Talk session.

EMBRACING CHANGE: Conference Lay Leader Address Cesie Delve Scheuermann began with two short videos that show two visions of churches trying desperately to stay relevant, and yet missing the mark (“What if Starbucks Marketed Like the Church” and “Sunday Morning”). Cesie reminded us that the reason for growing healthy and vital churches is to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. She quoted Jim Wallis: “Faith is always personal and never private.” Cesie challenged us to go and make disciples to change the world! 118 Daily Proceedings

TABLE TALKS Peg returned with more questions for the tables: 1) How does a faith in Jesus Christ make a difference in your life? 2) What does the United Methodist church have to offer the world? 3) What can your congregation offer your community?

CABINET Scott Harkness (Assistant to the Bishop for Transition) and Donna Pritchard (Southern District Superintendent) opened with a “Rethink Church” video. They pointed out that real, systemic change in Oregon-Idaho must begin with the administration of the Annual Conference. Our mission has not changed, but we need a new focus on equipping local churches to become healthy and vital, in order to accomplish our mission of making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. They asserted that the number one priority of this new focus is to equip leaders. Donna asked the conference members to support legislation that would suspend the rules in order to eliminate the Conference Leadership Team for two years, so that we have an opportunity to try this new way of doing administration and leadership. They closed with a very short video clip about the challenge of building an airplane while it’s flying in the air!

CLOSING Bishop Hoshibata invited us to join with him in building a new vision--while flying in the air--of an annual conference that is focused on equipping healthy, vital congregations to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. It may be like herding cats at times! The bishop led in a closing prayer.

PERSONAL PRIVILEGE Alicia Webb is a Western Jurisdiction representative to Student Forum. She briefly reported on this year’s Student Forum.

LTC #1 ended three minutes early, at 2:57 pm! Conference members took a break, and then attend the Laity and Clergy Sessions at 3:30. After dinner, the Memorial/Communion worship service was held, with Donna Pritchard preaching. A reception followed for families of those being memorialized.

Living the Connection #2 Saturday, June 12, 2010 8:15 am

The session reconvened at 8:15 with singing (This Is a Day of New Beginnings), prayer, and a ReThink Rock video about doing church in a new way. The bishop welcomed us on this “Aloha Saturday” and encouraged us to be fools for Christ and do bold things to make disciples of Jesus Christ and grow healthy, vital congregations.

WESTERN JURISDICTION LEADERSHIP TEAM Donna Pritchard, chair of the WJC Leadership Team, introduced Skip Strickland, the Director of Connectional Ministries for the Rocky Mountain Annual Conference. Donna and Skip talked about the concept of “permeable boundaries.” The hope is that the annual conferences in the Western Jurisdiction can pool resources to work together, rather than having each of us invent the wheel on our own.

EMBRACING CHANGE: Church Development Dan Pitney celebrated the changes that have occurred in our thinking, strategies, and preparation when it comes to congregational development: “Wow, how things have changed!” said Dan repeatedly. Dan outlined the training, assessment, and intentional planning that are now part of the process. He expressed deep appreciation both to Bishop Hoshibata for his leadership, and to Beth Estock, our director of new faith communities. He reminded us that THE best way to make disciples for Jesus Christ is to start new churches. Beth Estock introduced our newest church start pastor, Teresa Adams, and her husband, Scott Adams. They are working on planting a new church in West Ada County near Boise. Teresa shared her vision with the conference members. Beth encouraged us to ask our local churches to pray for Teresa Daily Proceedings 119 and Scott as they begin this new ministry. She showed a video that highlights new ministries already underway in the annual conference. Lee Hunefeld, chair of the conference church development team, noted the obvious: we are all in a state of constant change! Can we be flexible enough as an institution to embrace that change? Lee and Jeff Lowery announced a micro-grant program to help fund new, “out-of-the-box” ministries; Vera Kenyon gave details about how to apply for a grant (find applications on the conference website: www.umoi.org). After sharing a video about the lay missioners program, Beth asked for anyone in the room who may have felt a nudge to begin a new ministry, and invited those persons to stand so that the conference could be in prayer for them.

TABLE TALK Peg Lofsvold directed the conference members to share responses to the church development presentation around their tables.

GIFT TO THE BISHOP John Mars told the conference members that last summer, eight women from Meridian UMC went on a Volunteers in Mission trip to the Democratic Republic of Congo. The people of the Congo sent a gift to Bishop Hoshibata as thanks “for allowing these eight women to go to the Congo!” John presented a picture showing United Methodist Men offering a hand to United Methodist Women in the Congo to help pull them out of the oppressed status under which they have suffered for many years.

READING OF APPOINTMENTS: Eastern Snake River District Bob Flaherty and Carole Sullivan assisted Bishop Hoshibata in reading the appointments, but first Bob reported that the Eastern District decided during their breakfast gathering this morning to change the name of the district to the Snake River District. Bishop Hoshibata asked the annual conference members to ratify this action. The action was approved enthusiastically. The body also expressed appreciation to Bob Flaherty for his years of service as the district superintendent.

The session took a 15-minute break.

LEGISLATIVE FORUM John Grimsted, chair of the Equitable Compensation Commission, moved adoption of this portion of their pre-conference report (as found on page 183 of the reports section of the Journal): Motion passed.

Steve Mitchell briefly explained the LegislativeAssembly process, and the actions required of the conference members today.

Steve introduced the consent calendar. It was noted that AR#28 should appear on page AR-1, the consent calendar for items requiring a simple majority. This is because the recommendation from the Legislative Assembly was to defeat the Action Request.

Jim Fellers moved to lift AR#28 from the Consent Calendar. Seconded. The motion received 40 votes, so it is lifted.

Becky Beaman moved to amend by striking “medicare” on line 33 and replacing it with the words “health care”; on line 34 delete the words “through the already successful government-run Medicare System.” Change the final sentence so that it begins, “Such a systemis needs to be...” Amendment passed.

Voting moved to the main motion as amended. Motion passed.

Michael Hollomon moved the adoption of AR#34, “Discontinuation of Williamson River UMC.” John Watts, Central District Superintendent reported on the decision of the Williamson River congregation to withdraw from the United Methodist Church.

Michael moved the adoption of AR#32, “Williamson Transfer of Property.”

Because Prairie City is only 13 miles from John Day, the remaining members of the church will transfer their membership to John Day UMC. Motion passed.

BISHOP’S AWARD This award is given to laity who exhibit extraordinary ministry in our annual conference. Bishop Hoshibata announced the recipients of this year’s award: Gerry and Dottie Edy. They have been long- time workers in hunger ministry, and are members of Sherwood UMC.

RECOGNITION OF CONFERENCE STAFF Bishop Hoshibata acknowledged the support staff in our conference and district offices. The conference members gave a standing ovation to Patricia (Pat) Breen, the bishop’s administrative assistant, who is retiring next week. Mike Gregor, vice-chair of the Episcopacy Committee, presented the gift of a new tennis racket to Pat on behalf of the conference, so that she can continue to serve, even in retirement!

READING OF APPOINTMENTS: Central District John Watts and Lisa Radford came forward to assist the bishop in the reading of the Central District appointments. Bishop Hoshibata thanked John for his many years on the cabinet, including his last two years as dean of the cabinet.

David Armstrong took a moment of personal privilege to thank the annual conference for holding his family in prayer a year ago when he and his spouse, Ruth Marsh, were called away to be with his mother in her final days.

Cesie Delve Scheuermann and Laura Jaquith Bartlett modeled “spontaneous clergy-laity teamwork” in leading a prayer for lunch.

Living the Connection #3 Saturday, June 12, 2010 1:30 pm

PRAYER AND PRAISE Following lunch, the conference members sang together Blest Be the Tie That Binds. Ruth Marsh and John Watts led in a time of prayer and reflection, celebrating the ministry of the congregations of Williamson River and Prairie City UMCs. Together, the two churches gave 270 years of ministry. The time of remembrance ended with singing O God, Our Help in Ages Past.

Carol Seckel asked for personal privilege. She and Kevin Seckel served the Williamson River church many years ago. She asked that we would take time to confess the ways that we have failed to bridge the cultural gap between the annual conference and the Klamath peoples in this ministry setting.

HISTORIC WESLEYAN QUESTIONS Bishop Hoshibata called forward the ordinands: Clay Andrew, Dan Benson, and David Childress, along with Achsah Clark, who is being received into full membership. Myoungsub Cho is also to be ordained, but was not present. The bishop asked these persons the historic questions that have been asked of ordinands since John Wesley’s time.

BOARD OF PENSIONS Robin Yim addressed the conference in place of Jamie Kienzle (the chair), who is attending his son’s college graduation. Robin presented information about the current state of the various pension plans in the conference.

Robin moved the adoption of the Recommendations under heading of Health Insurance Plan in the BOP 122 Daily Proceedings pre-conference report (pages K-7 and K-8). Motion passed.

Robin moved the adoption of the Recommendations under the heading Pension and Welfare Plans found in the BOP pre-conference report (Blue pages, K-9): items 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, and 6. Motion passed.

Robin lifted up the names of those clergy on Incapacity Leave, and offered prayer for them. Bill Mullette-Bauer introduced Barbara Hora from the General Board of Pensions and Health Benefits.

COUNCIL ON FINANCE AND ADMINISTRATION Ted Wimer, president of CF&A, thanked the members of the Council and the staff of the Treasurer’s Office. Ted introduced the conference budget, and offered the opportunity for members to ask questions about each section of the budget.

THE ADVANCE Bishop Hoshibata introduced Amanda Mountain, representing The Advance for Christ and His Church. She reported that OR-ID contributed over $195,000 to The Advance in 2009. In addition, our OR-ID United Methodists have so far given over $543,000 for Haiti earthquake relief in 2010. Amanda showed a short video about the B-1 program, which is a 24-hour fasting event for youth, sponsored by The Advance: One Being, Being One.

READING OF APPOINTMENTS: Western District Kate Conolly and Mary Foote joined Bishop Hoshibata for reading the Western District appointments. UNITED METHODIST FOUNDATION Bishop Hoshibata introduced Tom Wilson, the executive director of the United Methodist Foundation in the northwest. Tom addressed the annual conference briefly, and encouraged people to get more information on the Foundation’s website: www nwumf.org.

The conference took a brief break.

Bishop Hoshibata asked Paul Cosgrove, conference chancellor, to give an update about the sexual misconduct lawsuit, which has now been settled.

HISTORIC QUESTIONS, TAKE TWO Myoungsub Cho arrived during the break, and was asked the same Wesleyan questions answered earlier in the afternoon by the other candidates for full connection.

TIME TO GROW Beth Estock shared a testimony about the significant impact United Methodist camping has had on the life of Beth and her family. Matt Ober, soon to be a 10th grader, offered his own story about the difference camping has made in his own life. Bill Hays, campaign manager for Time to Grow, invited each person in the room to recall their own stories about camp. Bill offered questions for Table Talk: How has your life, or someone you know, been touched by a camp or retreat experience? Recall a story or a memory. What made that time important? Who were the people that made that moment special? Helen Ober, the chairperson of Time to Grow, told about going to camp for the first time in 1957. She talked about how much our camp and retreat ministry has expanded since then: now we offer events for everyone from babies to 80-somethings. But we need to update our facilities in order to accommodate this amazing age range. Helen invited conference members to fill out pledge cards and put them in the cans on the tables. Bill led in a time of prayer.

EPISCOPAL OFFICE CHANGE Bishop Hoshibata introduced Becky Deleury, who has just been hired as his new administrative assistant. Her first day will be Tuesday, June 15. Her hours for this half-time position will be Monday to Thursday from 10 to 3. The bishop also thanked Mike Gregor of the Episcopacy Committee. Daily Proceedings 123

NORTHWEST HOUSE OF THEOLOGICAL STUDIES CLOSES The bishop invited forward all persons who have taken classes at NHTS, as conference members expressed deep sadness at the closing of the House, and joy at the ministry that has taken place there over the years. The bishop offered prayer.

REFOCUS CONVERSATION The bishop reminded us that our new focus is on growing healthy, vital congregations. Peg Lofsvold reported on some of the conversations that have happened so far around the tables: we’re agreed that we’re experiencing change! Visitors were invited to join the tables, and Peg directed folks to work together around tables on this question: In our life together in the annual conference, what do you see or hear that’s ending, that’s completed, and how do you feel about that ending? After some Table Talk, Scott Harkness reported on the make-up of the new Ministry Leadership Team. He lifted up the Conference Leadership Team’s bold step of asking the annual conference to “create a space” for something new- -which would mean disbanding the CLT, the very group that was trying to provide a structure for refocusing. Scott asked the conference members to acknowledge the work of the CLT, which no longer exists but which brought us to this time of embracing change. Peggy Kessinger offered another question for Table Talk: What are you seeing that’s calling you forward? Steve Ross remembered the Lewis & Clark expedition, and the fact that there was a huge gap in the map they used to get from Missouri to the Pacific coast. He acknowledged that there is an equally large gap in the map we’re using to navigate our way forward in the vision--but that will not stop us from getting there! Steve directed the tables in one last question: What do you imagine that your role might be in helping us all together to grow healthy, vital congregations? What do you bring to this adventure together?

BISHOP’S AWARD Bishop Hoshibata gave a second bishop’s award to another lay person who has shown exemplary service to the annual conference: Kathy Campbell-Barton. Kathy served for many years as the conference’s Peace with Justice Coordinator, and she has been a tireless advocate for peace and justice causes. She has edited the Peace with Justice Advent booklets for 24 years; they have been used not only in this conference, but throughout the denomination.

Debbie Pitney announced that an Aloha Day “award” for the best Hawaii outfit goes to all the pages (who wore grass skirts and plastic leis during the afternoon session)!

PAGES OFFERING The bishop invited all the pages to the platform so that the conference members could thank them for their hard work amongst us. An offering to help defray their annual conference expenses was taken as the members left for dinner.

ORDINATION The ordination service was held at Salem First UMC. Bishop David Brauer-Rieke of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (Oregon Synod) was the guest preacher, and participated with Bishop Hoshibata in the ordination of four new elders. In addition, a new member in full connection (transferring from another denomination) was welcomed, and each worshipper was given the opportunity to come forward for prayer in response to God’s call into ministry.

THE NETWORK Gary Powell, chair of The Network, addressed the Session. The Network was created two years ago for the purpose of fostering communication, and to provide resources for clergy morale and support, continuing education, and issues of accountability.

FELLOWSHIP OF LOCAL PASTORS AND ASSOCIATE MEMBERS Margaret Golden talked about the varied ministries of the Fellowship’s members--including Lay Persons Assigned. She expressed appreciation for the support of deacons and elders, and for the times when deacons and elders have called upon Fellowship members for support and resources.

ORDER OF DEACONS Janine Watkins and Ann Bateman, co-chairs of the Order, gave a joint report, reminding the clergy 128 Daily Proceedings session that deacons are called to serve as a connecting bridge between the church and the marketplace. They encouraged us to seek out persons who may be called to be ordained as deacons.

Patty Meyers offered prayer for Jane Hill, diaconal minister, who is not here because her husband is undergoing surgery for cancer today.

SEXUAL ETHICS POLICY Gay reminded clergy members about the requirement to take the online test about our conference sexual ethics policy.

ORDER OF ELDERS Thom Larson and Peg Lofsvold, co-chairs of the Order, invited elders to a gathering in Bend this fall, October 12-14, 2010. The presenter will be Richard Groves, executive director of the center for the sacred art of living in Bend. Thom indicated that members of the Bend First UMC are willing to offer homestays for elders who need help with lodging in order to attend the gathering. Peg encouraged elders to contact Thom and Peg with ideas for “courageous questions” for discussion in Bend. Thom clarified that attendance at the Order gathering is required for elders.

VISION FROM THE BISHOP Bishop Hoshibata and Cesie Delve Scheuermann (conference lay leader), along with Gary Powell, addressed the clergy session. The bishop talked about the difficulty in making decisions about change that may cause pain to people that he cares about. He lifted up the importance of accountability and invited a new partnership: he asked the members of the session to hold him accountable in honesty and love, and he told them to expect the same from him and from others. Cesie acknowledged that it is highly unusual to allow a lay person to address the clergy session, and she thanked the members for the privilege. Cesie talked about empowering laity, and offered clergy ideas about how (and how NOT) to empower laity to be transformational disciples. On behalf of The Network, Gary Powell invited clergy into a conversation about what it means to grow healthy, vital congregations. Sheets of paper were distributed with questions to help in the conversation.

The clergy session was adjourned at 5:30 pm. Ordination 129

AR#6 Adding Abuse Awareness Standards to Safe Sanctuaries Policy Sponsor: Bishop’s Task Force on Abuse Prevention Responsible Parties: The Bishop’s Task Force on Abuse Prevention Adopted. Add the following to the Safe Sanctuaries Policy adopted by the Annual Conference in 2008 immediately following the Definitions section of the “Minimum Standards for Abuse Prevention Policies of Local Ministry Settings:

“MINIMUM STANDARDS FOR ABUSE AWARENESS Abuse comes in many forms and occurs in many ways and in many places. Prevention of emotional, physical, verbal and sexual abuse is vitally important to us as United Methodists. Children, youth and adults hear about abuse and abuse prevention in school and in public media. It is important for all to know that their church is vitally concerned with their well-being as children of God. Abuse Prevention Month is observed nationally in April and could be an appropriate time for a faith focus on abuse as well.

The following are MINIMUM standards for raising awareness about abuse: Each local church ministry setting shall annually designate one Sunday on which abuse awareness and abuse prevention are incorporated into the worship experience. Each local ministry setting shall annually offer an educational opportunity for children, youth, and/or adults on abuse prevention.” Make available resource materials on abuse prevention for children, youth and adults for use in local ministry settings. These resources will be available on the conference website by December 1, 2010. Request clergy to report annually to the all church conference ways in which minimum standards for abuse awareness were met. AR#8 Replace Conference Rule 2.016 Sponsor: Annual Conference Sessions Committee Responsible Parties: The Sessions Committee Adopted. Replace Conference Rule 2.016 as follows: “Child and dependent care information and scholarships will be provided, as requested, for each session of the annual conference. The Sessions Committee will continue to study the need and options for child and dependent care.” AR#10 Allow Churches to Opt Out of UMPACT Sponsor: Immanuel United Methodist Church Defeated. AR#12 Suspend Conference Rules that Establish and Define the CLT (9.000, 9.010, 9.015) Sponsor: The Conference Leadership Team Responsible Parties: Ministry Leadership Team Adopted. Suspend conference rules 9.000, 9.010, and 9.015 until June 30, 2012.

Create an “Oversight Board” charged with the responsibility of holding the Ministry Leadership Team accountable to the vision and strategic direction of the Annual Conference. The “Oversight Board” will consist of the Conference Lay Leader, the District Lay Leaders, and four to six other lay persons selected by them with an eye to diversity and specific skills that will enhance the work of this board. Guidance for their work shall come from the section of the supporting material below labeled “The Proposal” 136 Actions & Resolutions

Furthermore, the term “Ministry Leadership Team” or “MLT” shall be substituted where any references to “Conference Leadership Team” or “CLT” occur in the remaining 9.xxx rules. AR#14 Policy Concerning Marriage of All Clergy And Article of Religion XXI Sponsor: Sweet Home United Methodist Church Adult Sunday School Responsible Parties: All Conference Boards and agencies involved in clergy marriage. Adopted as amended. “The General Conference shall not revoke, alter, or change our Articles of Religion or establish any new standards or rules of doctrine contrary to our present existing and established standards of doctrine.” [Section III, Article I of the Constitution of The United Methodist Church]

“The ministers of Christ are not commanded by God’s law either to vow the estate of single life, or to abstain from marriage; therefore it is lawful for them, as for other Christians, to marry at their own dis- cretion, as they shall judge the same to serve best to godliness.” [Article XXI]

Whereas the Articles of Religion take precedence over the Book Of Discipline, we believe that any Disciplinary provision denying marriage to some clergy is unconstitutional and contrary to the Articles of Religion and the first Restrictive Rule;

Therefore, we adopt a policy that all clergy in this Annual Conference may be legally married at their own discretion, when permitted by civil law. We direct that all Conference Boards and agencies conduct their business consistent with this policy. AR#16 Drop Rule 1.321 Sponsor: Board of Pensions Responsible Parties: Reviewed by the Rules Committee and approved by the annual confer- ence. Adopted. Drop annual conference Rule 1.321.

AR#34 Williamson River United Methodist Church Discontinuation Sponsor: John Watts, Central District Superintendent Responsible Parties: The Conference Board of Trustees is caring for the property until its transfer to the Klamath Tribes can be accomplished. Adopted. To discontinue the Williamson River United Methodist Church (¶2548.2).

PETITIONS TO BE FORWARDED TO GENERAL CONFERENCE 2012 GC#6 Amend Social Principles II. The Nurturing Community B) Marriage Sponsor: Sweet Home United Methodist Church Adult Sunday School Adopted. 140 Actions & Resolutions Standing Resolutions

We commend these issues to local churches for continued and further study and action. The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference recognizes that sincere and dedicated Christians can differ on matters of proper Christian ethics and actions. These resolutions are the expression of the belief of the majority of those gathered in the Annual Conference Session. They are commended to the membership for their prayerful study and individual consideration.

1. BAN ON TORTURE (2008) 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 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) 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 teachings 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 that of God in every one, 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,” PO Box 361, Portland, OR 97207-0361 (www.oadp.org). In Idaho, information can be obtained from www.deathpenaltyinfo.org. Actions & Resolutions 141

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.

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. 142 Actions & Resolutions

7. 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 and transgender people repel many youth and young adults, limiting the evangelistic ministry of churches in transitional com- munities.

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.

9. CONSUMER RIGHTS IN HEALTH CARE (1996, Revised 1999, 2002, Revised 2005, Revised 2008) Sponsor: 2008 Revision sponsored by Conference Witness Team WHEREAS, the health care system in our country and in our states is undergoing massive changes which include the shift away from non-profit health insurance plans and hospitals and increasing competition and cost cutting efforts among insurers; and, WHEREAS, those changes include increasing insurance company control over decisions that should be made by practitioners in consultation with their patients and with the health interests of the patients in mind; and, WHEREAS, people without insurance coverage pay the highest price for their hospital bills, medical debt is the primary reason for bankruptcy, and people with insurance are the fastest growing portion of those filing bankruptcy as a result of medical debt, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED that the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference work at state and national levels in coalition with organizations such as Families USA, Universal Health Care Action Network, Idaho Citizens Network and the Oregon Health Action Campaign in efforts toward establishing, implementing, and ensuring enforcement of patient rights for; a) self-pay and under-insured patients at risk of losing homes, retirement and education assets to unaffordable charges billed by hospitals and providers; and b) consumer access and quality in all insurance plans.

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. Actions & Resolutions 143

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 (2005, Revised 2008) Sponsor: Conference Witness Team We resolve to take positive action to curb emissions that may contribute to global warming. As stewards of God’s creation we acknowledge our way of living, principally our use of energy, creates emissions that warm the planet and threaten all life. We urge local ministry settings and members to be better stewards of the resources by conserving energy. 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. We also encourage members to take simple steps to reduce greenhouse gas emission by driving “smart and less,” by using fuel-efficient vehicles or alternate methods of transportation and by investigating the use of additional and all energy resources. We can take action by contacting elected officials and urging them to address the global climate changes, and by creating a task force of energy professionals and activists to create an energy audit template and to suggest a conference wide strategy to enact an energy efficiency and conservation program.

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 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.

14. HEALTH ACTION CAMPAIGNS (1989, Revised 1990, 1993, 1996, 1999, 2002, Revised 2005, Revised 2008) Sponsor: Conference Witness Team We endorse the Oregon Health Action Campaign and Idaho Citizens Network. By authority of this action, the organizations will be entitled to list our Annual Conference as a supporting body. The Oregon Health Action Campaign and the Idaho Citizens Network are grass roots organizations dedicated to mobilizing multi-organizational and individual efforts for the development of health policy that ensures access to comprehensive, quality, affordable health care for all Oregonians and Idahoans. It is estimated that two thirds of the nation’s and region’s uninsured children are eligible for but not enrolled in existing publicly supported health programs; in keeping with the policy of our denomination concerning 144 Actions & Resolutions health care issues, the Social Principles of the United Methodist Church: Right of Health Care clearly states: “Healthcare is a basic human right.” We urge the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference to continue to endorse the Oregon Health Action Campaign and the Idaho Citizens Network. We also challenge our communities of faith to seek their role in making “Health Care For All” a reality by participating in such activities as the observance of a Health Care Sabbath, the distribution of information about publicly supported health programs for children and families, and the opportunities for congregational advocacy.

15. 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.

16. 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 of the Oregon and Idaho United States Congresspersons of our support of this action and that the Bishop be a signatory of this annual notification.

17. 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. Actions & Resolutions 145

18. 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.

19. 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.

20. 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 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.”

21. REJECTION OF WAR AS FOREIGN POLICY (2005, Revised 2008) Sponsor: Methodist Federation for Social Action, OR-ID Chapter Revision sponsored by Conference Witness Team WHEREAS, the Social Principles of the United Methodist Church (¶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 Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church affirms its commitment to ¶ 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 146 Actions & Resolutions

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.

Bush acknowledged in Nov, ‘02 that, “Cubans are the only exception to the country’s immigration laws because of Cuba’s communist regime.” And, a 2002 government resolution states that Haitians who manage to reach US land must remain in custody while their asylum petitions are reviewed; and, WHEREAS, The “wet-foot-dry-foot” policy allows Cubans who reach U.S. soil to be processed and released pending their asylum hearings; and, WHEREAS, The USA and Mexico share contiguous borders which extends to the rest of South American countries also affords the nationals of these countries greater chances of entering the USA because of our porous borders with Mexico; now, THEREFORE BE IT RESOLVED, That the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference call for the repeal of unjust laws; promote this resolution; and educate churches, and encourage our local, state and national leaders to address the plight of the Haitian people.

23. 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, Actions & Resolutions 147

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 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.

24. STAR WARS (1993, Revised 1994, Revised 1997, Revised 2000, Revised 2004, Revised 2007) We urge the Annual Conference and its members to contact members of the U.S. Congress urging them to enact legislation, which would prohibit continued funds for development, testing, production, and deployment of any space based weapons, and for the testing of Ballistic Missile Defense (BMD) Program weapons, whether based on land, sea, air or space. 1. The Star Wars National Missile Defense System (NMD) is being supported by our current administration with $10 billion annually, expecting to raise to 19 billion by 2013; and is being promoted for deployment by the President; and recalling the clear expression of concern by our bishops about the development and 148 Actions & Resolutions deployment of a space-based defense system in their pastoral letter and foundation document, In Defense of Creation: 2. Postpone operational deployment of the expensive and untested deployment of a ground-based strategic midcourse ballistic missile defense (GMD) system and transfer the associated funding to accelerated programs to secure the multitude of facilities containing nuclear weapons and materials and to protect our ports and borders against terrorists who may attempt to smuggle weapons of mass destruction into the United States.

25. STATEMENT OF WELCOME TO ALL SEXUAL MINORITIES (1999, 2002, revised 2005, Title revised 2008) Sponsor: Jeanne G. Knepper For in one spirit we are all baptized into one body…and we were all made to drink of one Spirit…If one member suffers, all suffer together with it; if one member is honored all rejoice together with it. (I Cor. 12:13, 26) We, the members of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church affirm that all are welcome in our faith communities. This means that we commit ourselves to welcoming persons of all sexual orientations and gender identity into the life of the United Methodist Church. It also means that we commit ourselves to building bridges of understanding and trust between persons who have been divided on this issue. We acknowledge with humility that we have been unable to arrive at a common mind on the compatibility of homosexual practice with Christian faith. Some consider this practice incompatible with Christian teaching. Others believe it is acceptable when practiced in a context of human covenantal faithfulness. We seek further understanding through continued prayer, study, and pastoral experience. In doing so, we continue to affirm that God’s grace is freely given to all and that the members of Christ’s body are called to be in ministry for and with one another and to the world. Alone, we are not equal to this task, but we are not alone. We ask God to lead us as we enter into the work of trust, hospitality and welcome.

26. STUDY ON THE SOCIAL PRINCIPLES (2008) Sponsor: Conference Witness Team We urge the local churches of the annual conference to encourage the members of their congregations to become educated about the Social Principles of the United Methodist Church through such means as: -Adult study groups -Confirmation training -New member training classes -Worship services that include the Social Creed in music, litany or responsive reading, and in which the pastor makes the connection between the Social Principles and their scriptural basis -Church newsletter articles -United Methodist Women’s Schools of Christian Mission 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. Actions & Resolutions 149

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. 150 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 10 through June 13, 2010 Bishop Robert Hoshibata, Presiding Date When Organized: 1969 Number of This Session: 42

The Conference Leadership Team Rev. Scott Harkness, Assistant to the Bishop for Transition

Were you there for the Conference Leadership Team PowerPoint presentation to last year’s Session of Annual Conference? It was a bold statement!

In the first place, the CLT reminded the Annual Conference of our Strategic Direction, which begins with our Mission/Vision statement: “Boldly Making Disciples of Jesus Christ - Vitalizing the Church, Transforming the World,” and builds on four priority commitments: 1) the Christian practice of personal holiness and social holiness, 2) making new disciples of Jesus Christ, 3) developing excellence in both our lay and clergy leadership, and 4) staying on track by keeping the “main thing” the main thing at all levels of our church. (It is this last commitment that has most likely influenced our thinking and acting in the last few months).

The Conference Leadership Team then took on the mantle of bold leadership and in last year’s report spoke the truth as they saw it. The longer they shepherded the vision of the Annual Conference, they more they realized that leadership is more than management or coordination. This Annual Conference requires something more than management. The church cannot be “managed” into vitality. Management does not bring about transformation! The CLT arrived at the understanding that in these times, in the face of challenging questions and issues, the church requires a new a different kind of leading.

One of the primary tasks of leaders is to help define reality, so the CLT did some “truth-telling” to the Annual Conference last year. Displaying a series of PowerPoint slides of storm clouds, your Conference Leadership Team told it like they saw it. Remember what they said?

“In all honesty, the Conference Leadership Team sees some major storm clouds building over our Annual Conference. While there are definitely some bright rays of sunlight beaming in various locations throughout our connection, the overall forecast shows some rough weather ahead. For example, at our most recent CLT meeting Bishop Hoshibata talked with us about the difficulties of appointment-making this year. Because of guaranteed appointments for active elders, fewer clergy retirements, and more churches unable to pay full-time salaries, gifted local pastors, lay pastors and pastors from other annual conferences did not receive appointments in our churches. And this may be more than just a temporary symptom of a bad economy, but a reality for our conference for years to come. It raises huge questions about our system of guaranteed appointments, clergy qualifications and effectiveness, escalating health insurance premiums and other costs related to clergy compensation, shrinking and aging congregations, our ability and commitment to start new faith communities, clergy and congregational morale, and more.

“At another meeting we discussed what appears to be the growing ‘disconnect’ in our connection, manifested in apportionment support, lowering expectations of the annual conference, and a tendency to operate independently of each other at all levels of the connection.

“The sky grew darker for us as we learned from the Council on Finance and Administration that unless something significantly changes in our income or spending patterns, our main eserver (called the General Fund Reserve), which the Conference relies on for cash flow from month to month, will essentially dry up sometime in 2011. We need to make this very clear - In two years our Annual Conference could find itself in the precarious position of beingunable to meet its financial obligations.

“And there was the conversation CLT had about our United Methodist system and how authority, responsibility and accountability are spread out in such a way that no one seems to know who can make change happen. Even though we’ve been talking about these approaching storm clouds for years, our Reports 169 system seems to get in the way of an effective and timely response. Who’s in charge? How do we make things happen?”

The Conference Leadership Team concluded its report by going on record with the promise that “when we gather again in June, 2010, we will propose bold, creative, and faithful action based on Rethinking Church for these times. We know that this will be challenging for us and for the whole Annual Conference. We know we may be exploring radically new territory for our connection. We know that while change is not usually easy, it is often necessary if we want to be true to our calling. We know we must start Rethinking Church and the CLT is in the position to lead the way.”

A new vision for the Annual Conference has indeed been percolating since last June. You will learn a lot more about it in the weeks leading up to the 2010 Annual Conference Session and we will address it in June when we meet in Salem. The Conference Leadership Team has had a hand in its formation. And as a picture emerged of an Annual Conference primed and prepared to focus its energies and resources on transforming the world by making disciples of Jesus Christ in healthy, vital congregations, the CLT realized it had a big decision to make. This kind of effort, to be successful and effective, needs bold leadership – not management! The truth is, the Conference Leadership Team is designed to function as a representational body of clergy and laity meeting 4-5 times a year to coordinate the traditional ministries of the Conference. There was a time perhaps when this system worked well, but not today. “Business as usual” in the Annual Conference does not (and probably cannot) effectively support the development of healthy, vital congregations in today’s world and is not sustainable by our churches. So at its March 9, 2010 meeting after a day of prayerful discernment and decision-making the Conference Leadership Team demonstrated bold leadership and voted itself out of existence! It was a consensus decision of everyone present.

It is not that the CLT had grown tired of its work. It is not that the vision had grown dim or that they lost their inspiration. Quite the opposite! Energized by a new vision for the Conference and recognizing the need for a new structure and system to make it work, the CLT determined that responsibility, accountability and authority needed to be lodged in one body and that that body should be the newly expanded Ministry Cabinet. As a result, an action request has been submitted by the Conference Leadership Team itself proposing that the conference rules relating to the structure of the Conference Leadership Team be suspended for two years to determine if this is, indeed, a better and more effective way of operating as an Annual Conference. Please read AR#11 and consider the advantages to empowering the expanded Ministry Cabinet to work as the operational team of the Conference, meeting regularly as the “Ministry Leadership Team” and accountable for results in terms of healthy, vital congregations making world transforming disciples of Jesus Christ. If after two years the conclusion is this is not an improvement, we can try something else or revert back to the system we’re accustomed to!

It has been a true privilege serving Jesus Christ through leadership in this Annual Conference. While we are not clear about the all the details of the new vision, we are eager to see healthy and vital United Methodist churches transforming the world through their disciple-making and believe the most effective thing we can do as a Leadership Team is to step aside and offer the mantle of leadership to a new group of bold, innovative persons who will move us forward toward our vision of healthy, vital congregations.

May God bless this hope and dream.

Camp and Retreat Ministries Rev. Bill Gates, Chair

“Spiritual but not Religious” – Who are they? What do they seek? How do we connect with them? They’re all around us here in the northwest. I meet them on the bus. They play in my neighborhood park. Many of my close friends are included in their numbers. And I have learned that I may just be one. Matthew Fox was the main keynote speaker at the Earl Lectures in Berkeley this January. The theme for the lecture series was “Spiritual but not Religious: Chasing the Divine.” I attended seeking knowledge 170 Reports (who, what, why and how). What I walked away with was a bit of wisdom. Fox reminded me why I fell in love with Christian camping almost thirty years ago.

As Fox spoke about experience-based spirituality my mind raced to experiences of camp. Drifting down the near-freezing headwaters of the Boise River fresh from snowfields and underground springs at Camp Sawtooth under the heat of summer sun reminded me of just how alive I felt. “Remember your baptism and be thankful.” I am. Experiencing Holy Communion around the warmth of a Suttle Lake campfire or at the pass high in the Mt. Jefferson Wilderness reminds me of the great connection with God’s creation and creatures. I find myself speechless in awe of the explosion of the billions of Milky Way stars painted in the moonless sky above us all. These experiences light fires in my heart with the sense of stewardship and responsibility for the earth. I remember the deep gratitude I felt when hearing the heart-felt stories of faith from teenagers in small groups on the beach at Camp Magruder. My eyes fill with tears of joy with the memory of discovering the depth of grief that is shared in safe places of trust with companions in faith who have worked together, shared a cabin together, and who have washed dishes elbow-to-elbow.

As Camp and Retreat Ministries we are committed to Christian experiences of: awe and mystery; finding ways of sharing how God is working in our lives and the lives of those around us; grieving loss; celebrating life; justice and compassion; praying with friends and foes; finding confidence in self and beauty in others; practicing silence; practicing laughter (often and deeply); engaging children in worship; developing and following youth in leadership; creative problem solving; active worship.

Camp and Retreat Ministries leaders are dedicated to a close partnership with local congregations. Together, we will find ways to share the spiritual practices of our faith and tradition that promises to transform our communities to health and vitality.

“You can’t teach spirituality in a knowledge-based system. Spirituality can be taught only in a wisdom-based environment.” Matthew Fox

CRMT Board Goals for 2010: Strengthen connections between camping and local churches; 100% board support for Time to Grow Capital Campaign; continue exploring strengthening camping possibilities for Southern Oregon congregations; investigate strategies to add to the principal of the CARE fund.

CRMT Accomplishments in 2009: gocamping.org website re-design completed; renovations at Camp Magruder (Edwards and Bunch lodges); significant progress with US Forest Service process toward approval of building new showerhouse at Suttle Lake; “Great Hymns of the Faith” series started at ALCRC; provide support and leadership for Time to Grow conference capital campaign; ground-breaking for 10th yurt cabin at Wallowa Lake.

Communications Committee Brian Kennedy, Chair

In 2009 the Conference Communications Committee struggled with the realities of recruiting committee membership, finding meeting time, and functioning with reduced financial resources in the conference. Despite these challenges, there have been many activities in communication areas in the last year.

In November 2008 Greg Nelson was selected as the Director of Communications. 2009 has been a year of learning for him and establishing a new perspective on communications and the role of the staff person with that primary assignment.

Many technical changes have happened over the last year. In February 2009 a new website structure was launched. Since that launch several improvements have been made. They include: • Updates to menus • Improved editing software for page masters • The addition of social media tags Reports 171 • Published the 2009 Journal using searchable text and non-pdf attachment for tabular data • Provided two training sessions for district and conference office staff • Installed a form tool to allow for feedback forms and simple event registration via a web page

The number of people trained to add content to page areas of the website continues to grow and new features continue to be added to the site. Work continues on the site to find ways to assist those seeking information, to integrate directory information and church listings and to include more video messages.

Another change was the rather sudden end of publication of the United Methodist Online. This previously printed publication had moved to an electronic distribution, and publication was halted around the dual issues of it effectively reaching an audience as distributed and the cost of preparation. The Communications Committee feels there is still a need for some type of periodic magazine-format item in the conference and is continuing to explore the options for preparation, presentation, distribution, and funding. Linda Sullivan, retired Director of Communications, is to be commended for her quality writing and editing of The United Methodist in both print and online formats for 11 years.

Two other new tools for the conference this year are Video Teleconferencing and Social Networking. Through a shared license with United Methodist Communications, the conference is using Adobe Connect Pro to provide video teleconferencing services for committees and other working groups. The next year should see increased use as training continues and committees learn how to effectively use this new tool. The Annual Conference officially came to FaceBook in February 2010. The number of fans grows steadily as this becomes a new way to share what is happening in the conference and engage members and non-members.

2010 will bring a new emphasis on training to the Communications Committee. The conference refocus on building effective leaders calls for areas such as the communications committee to provide training and resources to core leaders in local churches. Toward that end Director Nelson, Committee Chair Brian Kennedy, and Committee member Sally Jones have attended training at United Methodist Communications on effective training processes and training resources on key areas such as web ministry, “Rethink Church,” and connectional giving. They will be working together to provide this to various areas of the conference in 2010.

Connectional Ministries Table Rev. Steve Ross, Chair

The time for rethinking how we do connectional ministry in Oregon-Idaho is upon us. Our annual conference session will be acting upon an action request to suspend the current rules related to some of our conference structure for two years. The Connectional Ministries Table will officially cease to function (it has already actually ceased to function) for two years if this action request is passed. This will be part of an experiment in being conference in a more focused and purposeful way for two years. I urge you all to seriously consider doing this experiment. If it doesn’t work we will return to the current structure.

This past conference year there was only adequate funding in the spending plan for the fall convocation and the spring meeting was cancelled. Some of the active programs met apart from the convocation or by electronic means such as conference calls or video conferences. You can learn about the specific work of the various program groups in their separate reports.

We are in a time of significant change in the Oregon-Idaho Conference as well as in the United Methodist Church. The United Methodist way of being church that has served its people and communities very well for many decades is showing undeniable signs of obsolescence. The program committees of the Connectional Ministries Table have certainly experienced these signs. The things we do and the ways we do them seem to become more and more difficult and less and less fruitful.The signs have developed steadily over the past 20 years, but they have reached crisis proportion over the past three or four.

The straw on the camel’s back of our Connectional Ministries Table structure has been finances. We often 172 Reports have barely enough funding for the elected committees to meet. And meeting seems irrelevant if there is no money to provide programming. But the real crisis is not finance, it is a crisis of fruitfulness.Those who have worked hardest know better than anyone how often their significant efforts have been met with meager results.

We have come to the point where, if we are to be faithful to our calling to make disciples for Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world, we must try to do it in new ways. The structures and programs that have served in the past must be replaced with new means of being church. And we do not yet know fully what these new means will be. What we do know is that, trusting in the Spirit’s guiding, we are ready to step out in new ways to share the faith and to fulfill our mission.

Whether or not the experiment is adopted, funding for meetings of the Connectional Ministries Table will not be included in the 2011 budget. This does not mean that we are forsaking efforts in ministry with ethnic populations, witness to justice and peace issues in our communities, development of discipleship commitment among our children and young adults, or nurturing excellent leadership. It means we will be experimenting with new means by which these missions can be fruitfully lived out in the current landscape of the ripe mission field where we live.

Nurture Team Jill Plant, Chair

The Nurture Team encompasses Worship, Christian Education, Stewardship and Spiritual Formation. The Team met once in the last year during Fall Convocation to discuss the focus of the team and how we can effectively be in ministry with the churches of our Oregon-Idaho conference. We talked about the issues with the current budget and the fact that we would not be meeting twice this year. We did agree to pursue two goals for the year. They are: 1. Establish new conference-wide points of contact for Christian Education resources and 2. Establish a web-based skills database available on the Conference website. As the structure of the Conference takes new shape, we will see how these goals can complement the work of others to help local congregations in our Annual Conference make disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.

Thank you to all of the congregations who gave offerings on Christian Education Sunday in September. We received $3,296.81 from 21 congregations in the Conference for the Christian Education Sunday Fund to bring the current total to $15,258.31. 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 2009-2010 include: funding for attendance of two people to the Older Adult Ministry Training at Alton Collins Retreat Center ($90); partial funding for the Small Group Ministry Training held at Montavilla UMC (up to $2000); and funding for two young adults to attend the Global Young People’s Convocation in Berlin, Germany this July 2010 ($500 total).

Outreach Team David King, Chair

For the last three years it has been my privilege to serve as chair of the Outreach. This diverse group of people works on a wide range of outreach-related ministries. The mission secretaries help to bring the face of mission right to your local church by providing for the itineration of missionaries throughout the conference. The Task Force for the Partnership with Liberia continues to foster and grow this Annual Conference’s historic relationship with our fellow United Methodists in Liberia. Conference Disaster Response makes sure that we are ready to deal with any natural disasters in our area, such as the extreme coastal storms of a few years ago. We help local churches and individuals to find avenues for direct service through our United Methodist Volunteers in Mission (UMVIM) Coordinator. Our Refugee Coordinator helps churches who want to sponsor refugees. And we provide support to our Conference’s Reports 173 Hispanic Ministries. With the unfolding changes to the structure of our Conference’s program ministries, the future of the Outreach Team is unsure. Still, it has been a pleasure to serve as chair while I have had the chance, and I trust that even as structures change, this conference will continue it’s commitment to outreach ministry and will find effective ways to carry the grace of Jesus Christ to those most in need.

United Methodist Volunteers In Mission Brenda St. Clair, Chair

2009 turned out to be a great year for UMVIM despite the economy! The OR-ID Conference is made up of amazing and faithful people. We had 16 teams (173 team members) that served others in Guatemala, Peru, Bolivia, Nicaragua, Kenya, Brazil, the Congo, Uruguay, Argentina, Chicago, IL, Baldwin, LA, and New Orleans, LA. They worked a total of 112 days! Those are some pretty impressive numbers. Thank you to all of you who served so faithfully and diligently. Also, a big thank you to everyone who supported these team members with their gifts and prayers. This is truly what UMVIM is all about.

In January 2010, Haiti was struck by a catastrophic earthquake with multiple aftershocks. The loss of life and infrastructure damage was tremendous. Then in February, Chile was struck by the strongest earthquake they have had in half a century. UMVIM teams are in great demand. And, I am sure UMVIM teams will respond to these demands.

2010 is sure to be another year when individuals will answer the call to assist those in need. If you have never participated in an UMVIM experience, come join us to see what you have been missing. May God continue to bless all of our teams and each one of you!

Oregon-Idaho Task Force for the Partnership with Liberia Beverly J. Walker, Chair

This year we will offer for sale all the pins that we have sold in the past few years. You will be able to have a full set of these pins that go 100% to the Scholarship Fund for students at the Camphor Mission School in Grand Bassa County, Liberia!

T a s k F o r c e M e m b e r s a r e : J i m ( a n d M a r y E l l a , w h o d i e d i n O c t o b e r o f 2 0 0 9 ) B r e n t l i n g e r , L a r r y C a l k i n s , Maude Caldwell, G. Gbayou Garmondeh, Geraldine Hammond, Verna Harelson, Sandy Harland, Linda Hurley, Rochelle Killett, Jackee & Larry Mehl, Corinne & Tom Tate, Jim & Rinya Frisbie, Shirley Knight, Steve Mitchell and Joe & Beverly Walker. We pay all of our meeting expenses personally, so that all the money raised goes to Camphor Mission School & Station and to My Daughters’ Place that meets at Camphor Mission.

This year brought many changes at Camphor Mission. Dr. Danny Dickriede & Rev. Kathy Dickriede from the East Ohio Annual Conference have been working at the Camphor Mission School and Mission Station. They are the first foreign missionaries to be assigned at Camphor Mission since it was founded in 1947. Danny, a medical doctor, will provide first-class medical services at Camphor, plus help with the medical needs of the inhabitants of the rural communities surrounding Camphor Mission. Kathy will teach at the school and will be administrator of the School and Mission Station. Ms. Helen Roberts, Director of the Department of General Education and Ministry of Liberia Annual Conference, will give us information about Camphor Mission.

Paul J. Glaydor, Sr. is the new Mission Superintendent at the Camphor Mission Station and the Principal of the Camphor Mission School. His recent letter says: “We have adopted a new ten-year development plan. These plans included gradually moving the Mission Station away from at least 85% donor dependency towards financial independence/self sustainability and the eventual expansion of their projects between 2010 and 2020. The focus of the financial initiatives will to eventually enable the Mission to locally fund operational costs, including salaries, fuel, and supplies in order for other 174 Reports donors to fund special needs such as staff housing, manpower development, infrastructure, etc. This will hopefully expand the present elementary and junior secondary school to a full high school by 2015! We are also extending the health clinic to provide in-patient services, plus they will be adding a vocational and skills training program to expand adult literacy.” We can be a part of expanding the services at Camphor Mission School and Mission Station.

The Camphor Mission Station has 200 acres of land. The 20% of the land that is presently being used can be expanded to another 20%. The remaining 60% can be used for agriculture to reach financial sustainability. They have already planted 1,500 strums of rubber trees, plus harvesting and making oil from the oil palm farm. They are clearing 50 acres for vegetable plantation. Other projects being developed are for poultry, piggery and general animal husbandry projects. Joseph Roberts is the Agriculture Coordinator and Johnson Kulah is the Vice-President of Camphor Mission School.

The Director of My Daughters’ Place, Frido N. Kinkolenge, received the funds that we sent from OR-ID to purchase a motor-bike for help with activities in and around the villages and city. He was also able to buy a mattress to serve the babies after they have been breastfed. His new project will be educating the women at Camphor who can’t read and write.

Disaster Response and Preparedness Team Al Trachsel, Coordinator

The Annual Conference Disaster Response and Preparedness Team is proud to report that we were NOT the victims of any disasters in 2009. Judy Johnson reports that there are some lingering projects from the big wind storm on the Oregon coast a few years ago. This year, we were able to send Brenda St Clair, from Eastern Idaho, to Sager Brown, near New Orleans, to receive UMCOR training. Next year we hope to send Rev. Bruce Wenigmann, from Wilsonville, to the training. Bruce has also agreed to be our denominational representative to OVORAD, a state-wide organization in Oregon designed to address disasters. We are constantly thankful for people like Judy, Brenda, and Bruce who are willing to step out and take on the difficult tasks of disaster response and preparedness.

Witness Ministries Team April Hall Cutting, chair

The Witness team focused this year on helping local churches and ministry settings implement the 2008 resolution to study our United Methodist Social Principles. We provided two training events: In October 2009, Rev. Clayton Childers, General Board of Church and Society staff for Conference Relations, provided an informational plenary session at the Connectional Ministries convocation, a workshop at Salem 1st UMC, and preaching and teaching at Rose City Park UMC in Portland. In March 2010, Rev. Neal Christie, GBCS Assistant General Secretary for Education and Leadership Formation led train-the- trainer events for teaching the Social Principles in Boise and in Idaho Falls, as well as preaching. Free distribution of over 250 copies of the new edition of the Social Principles booklet and sales of many more at discount prices supported the effort to encourage churches to do a study. This spring we are assessing how many congregations and ministry settings held studies and what impact they had.

We continued to monitor, renew, and generate action requests and standing resolutions on a variety of social justice issues and peace with justice issues. We coordinate this work with the Methodist Federation for Social Action and other groups and individuals.

The 2009 Denman Evangelism awards were given to outstanding persons making an outstanding witness for Christ’s work in the world: Lisa Radford of Bend UMC and Rev. Jorge Rodriquez of the Wilder Reports 175 Hispanic Ministry. The oversight of this award may shift to another ministry area in the future.

We received with regret the resignation of long-time Peace with Justice Coordinator Kathy Campbell- Barton as she dealt with serious health issues.

Kathy Campbell-Barton attended the national Ecumenical Advocacy Days in Washington DC in March 2009. Rev. Courtney McHill attended the Young Clergy Forum at the GBCS in Washington in February 2009. Funds are available for others to attend these events in the future. Members of the team participate in the monthly telephone/telecast conferences with Church and Society leaders from around the nation.

We are thankful for the continued support of Peace with Justice offerings and apportionments that contribute to the work of social justice witness in our conference. As the Conference refocuses, we are assured that Methodist passion for social holiness will continue to rise and call forth action from individuals, groups, churches, and the Annual Conference.

Council on Racial-Ethnic Leadership (COREL) Kwang Seog Oh, Chair

COREL endorsed the Youth Work camp organized by the Korean UMC Committee pastors and the Committee on Racial and Ethnic Leadership, and Rev. John Go, pastor of the Nyssa and Fruitland UMC. Among the COREL members, Rev. Kwang Oh, Rev. Myung Sub Cho, and Rev. June Fothergill helped this event with great energy. The theme of the camp was “Walking with Christ.” This Youth Work camp was a good chance for the Inter-Racial Ethnic participants to get to know more about each other, and aid in the development of the youths’ spiritual lives. It took place at Nyssa UMC last summer. Twenty-two youth, three Korean pastors, and two Korean pastors’ wives from the Portland-metro area and four UMC pastors in the local areas near Nyssa participated on June 21-25, 2009, serving the local community of Nyssa. The youth painted low-income houses, weeded gardens and fixed up the Nyssa UMC church school rooms that hadn’t been used in years. When the kids weeded a very large garden, the elderly homeowner was very grateful and called the kids “young angels sent from heaven.” It was hard work for all but they also had fun sharing a potluck with church members, playing in a local hot springs, and having joint worship with some Hispanic youth of Wilder UMC.

Last year, the Korean ministry council was organized and the Korean pastors have strongly cooperated for Korean ministry in the Portland area. Especially, they helped the Korean Community Center to support old Korean immigrant people. Some members of COREL participated in its activities.

COREL will continually make efforts toward developing ethnic leadership and ministry and to develop connections among ethnic churches, ethnic pastors, and people who have concerns for ethnic ministry in our annual conference.

Conference Hispanic Ministries Vera A. Kenyon, chair

Our outreach across the conference is expanding. Rev. Ron Whitlatch, our Conference Director of Hispanic/Latino ministries, has been very busy providing consultations to individual congregations, trainings to pastors and laity, workshops on immigration, and many other activities as others begin to notice the opportunities which lie at their door steps in outreach to our Hispanic brothers and sisters. These trainings and workshops have been well received and are still available upon request.

A very exciting event occurred in Wilder, ID, in August. Rev. Scott Harkness visited the mission church congregation to award Rev. Jorge Rodriguez the Denman award for Evangelism. Several from the conference, the Lower Snake River HM Council, and others attended this very special worship service and the celebration afterwards to acknowledge Jorge’s wonderful work. 176 Reports In mid-November we held training in Caldwell, ID to train five pastors and four laity in Module I the skills to develop faith communities in their areas. The pastors were Rev. Al Trachsel, Caldwell; Rev. John Go, Fruitland/Nyssa; Rev. Michael Hollomon, Wendell/Hagerman; Rev. Jennifer Mercer, Ontario/ Vale; and, Rev. Phillip Kearse, Payette. The laity were Carole Sullivan, Emmett; Sue Faw, Ontario; Andrea Buechler, Gooding; Rochelle Killett, Nampa. We anticipate offering a Module I and II in 2010. Ron Whitlatch and his wife, Cathy brought Module III on immigration to Wilder in February. This same workshop was offered three times in Oregon with Mira Conklin assisting in the presentations. Rev. Bill Mefford, GBCS, will be presenting a workshop in both Idaho and Oregon on church organizing for immigration. Mira Conklin continues her work in developing an Hispanic ministry in Cornelius and other locations in Western Washington County, Oregon. Juanita Villarreal and Ron Whitlatch worked with DS Bonnie Parr Phillipson to develop a Metro District Hispanic Ministries Council. Juanita is a lay person working with Rev. Steve Wolff in Beaverton conducting a Bible study in Beaverton at the church on Sundays as well as reaching out into the community. Hillsboro is just completing their third year offering a very successful ESL program and beginning to offer faith-based activities. Rev. Jorge Rodriguez, a team of his laity, and Rev. Al Trachsel are beginning a ministry in Caldwell. This is an exciting and energetic ministry which will spread and grow through the area and beyond.

Our dreams are many. With the refocus of our conference we know that our task to be able to fund the trainings, consultations, workshops, etc. will be challenging; however, we continue to pursue the dream of Hispanic faith communities all across Oregon and Idaho. Be watching for ways you can monetarily support Hispanic Ministries so that together we can accomplish this dream. Visit our tables at the Ministry Fair during the annual conference session to learn more.

Native American Ministries Council Eva Johnson, Chair

Native American Ministries Council began its year with a strategic planning session to achieve measurable objectives for the council in the coming four years. The areas of focus included:

*Enhanced communications, *Working with churches near Native communities in Oregon and Idaho, *Continuing funding of the Carol Youngbird Holt Scholarship, *Promoting Native American Family Camp and *Supporting Native American representation at general and jurisdictional levels of the church.

To put the words into action, the council prepared an article for the UM Communications after each meeting so the conference was aware of meetings and actions taken and planned. The council agreed to place 10% of the Native American Ministries Sunday funds into the Carol Young bird Holt Scholarship fund to work toward endowment of the fund. In addition, two awards for individuals who are seeking higher education training to better serve Native populations and/or the church have been given this past year. Attendance at the Western Jurisdictional event “Creating a Culture of Church Planting” was supported and information was shared with the council to be used in activities of working with congregations near Native communities.

The Council has supported camping experiences for Native American families for the past summers and will continue to do this coming camping season. It has served as an effective introduction for urban families to the church in a natural environment which relates to many Native American traditions and cultural practices. Each year a family has experienced it and used the experience to make a positive change in their life. The Council will continue its work in this area to serve those families especially in the urban area where many changes constantly affect the family structure.

In the work of a church near an urban Native Community the council will continue to support the work of the Native American Fellowship at Wilshire United Methodist Church. This association has served as a home for many Native American events and developed an ongoing structure for Native participation in the United Methodist Church. Reports 177 Plans are underway to continue to implement the objectives of the Council and to participate in the development of healthy Native American participation in active vital churches within the conference.

Board of Higher Education and Campus Ministries Rev. Dan Thompson-Aue, Chair

Our work in the coming year will focus on realities of the restructuring of our Annual Conference. We face the challenge of coping with evaporating financial support from theAnnual Conference even as campus ministries model vital and effective mission and ministry. In this light, I share with you these insights of the Blue Ribbon Committee on Campus Ministry, a group commissioned by the Conference Leadership Team to suggest a direction for the future. As of this writing these recommendations have been referred to the Ministry Cabinet: * * *

Our Campus Ministry programs 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.

Campus ministry is an investment, both in terms of the people who are impacted by that ministry today and in terms of those whose future beliefs and actions are shaped by their experiences on campus and the relationships and behaviors they develop in the future.

In this light, please receive the following prayerful recommendations regarding Campus Ministries in the Oregon/Idaho Annual Conference:

1. As existing Campus Ministries are visionary, effective, essential missional programs aligned with the strategic direction of the Oregon Idaho Annual Conference and of the United Methodist Church, that the Oregon Idaho Conference provide continuing strong advocacy and support as the Conference restructures to empower vital congregations and localized ministry programs.

2. That Annual Conference support for Campus Ministries include the following components: 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 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 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 d. Assigning advocacy roles for Campus Ministries to District Leadership Teams and/or Assistants to the Bishop. 178 Reports Commission on Christian Unity and Interreligious Concerns Michael Powell, Chair

With the dissolving of the Annual Conference Connectional Ministries structure we recognize the increased importance of using our section of the AC web page to provide information about important ecumenical and interfaith dialogues and ministries in order to provide a model for ecumenical and interfaith dialogue and ministry. We have been discussing what role CCUIC might play as a discernment group in addressing the various issues that arise as ecumenical and interfaith ministries evolve.

As a way of organizing our reflections, Lowell Greathouse shared his experience of the World Café model used by a group preparing for the Parliament of World Religions, in which participants rotated tables discussing specific questions such as: “What is it that enriches you from your faith?” “Where do you see faith values expressed in community?” “What gives you hope?”

We have also undertaken a review our survey results regarding local church interfaith, ecumenical activities in our annual conference. We intend to continue having members of CCUIC write articles about current activities reported in the survey in order to inform and hopefully inspire other local churches to organize and participate in similar ministries. Our web page articles will focus on such questions as: 1. Why the activity was originated 2. How it was organized 3. How it has benefited the community and enriched the ministries of the participants

Commission on Religion and Race Rev. Clay W. Andrew, chair

As it has been for the entire Conference, this has also been a year of transitions for CORR. Changes in our Annual Conference structure and funding, a new educational emphasis for the clergy of the Conference, the desire to provide new resources to local churches and significant changes to the General Commission on Religion and Race have been challenges and opportunities for our Commission members.

After the 2009 Annual Conference adopted legislation calling for the development of training for cultural competency for clergy, CORR spent most of its time and energy supporting this effort. Our plan was to allow the Conference to develop its cultural competency training and then find or develop anti-racism resources that would be complementary to this training.

At the fall 2009 Convocation meeting, CORR began to brainstorm new ways to do our work together in the face of the end of the semi-annual Convocations. We also began to answer the question of how to bring resources to our geographically large, very rural Annual Conference. We are currently exploring resources developed by the General Commission on Religion and Race as well as other advocacy and training groups. Although we are still in the midst of our discussion and no decisions have been finalized, it seems likely that web-based resources will play a significant role in CORR’s educational work in the coming years.

2009 saw significant changes to the General Commission on Religion and Race. Facing severe budget shortfalls, the General Commission was restructured and every job description was rewritten. Those serving the GCORR were dismissed, given severance packages and allowed to apply for the new positions. Although this did not have a direct or immediate effect on our Commission, it will likely mean changes in GCORR’s resources and role in the future.

Despite these challenges, the members of the Commission remain passionate about the ministry of advocacy and education that we are called to. New opportunities to serve the Church await. New ways Reports 179 of bearing witness to the Kingdom are just around the corner. God calls us forward to a day of full inclusion of all of God’s children in the Church.

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 working to fulfill these responsibilities. Annually the Commission Monitors the plenary sessions of the Annual Conference to track participation by male and female, clergy and lay designations. The results of the monitoring are reported to the Annual Conference and to the larger church through the conference newsletter.

Annual Conference Lay Leader/Board of Lay Ministry Cesie Delve Scheuermann

“The experience of God’s presence is not void of pain. But the pain is so deep that you do not want to miss it since it is in this pain that the joy of God’s presence can be tasted…The experience of God’s unifying presence is an experience in which the distinction between joy and pain seems to be transcended and in which the beginning of a new life is intimated.” - Henri Nouwen, Genesee Diary

The past year has been one indeed in where “joy and pain seems to be transcended and in which the beginning of a new life is intimated.” We in the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference leadership have been struggling to come to grips with the realization that we must experience pain in order to come to a new and vibrant place as we strive to be faithful disciples of Jesus Christ. Growth, of course, does not usually come easy. I have had the privilege of representing the laity in this challenging and exciting journey our Annual Conference has embarked on. I have sat in countless meetings struggling, arguing, praying, and rejoicing as we try to determine who we are as Jesus’ disciples and what it will take for us to establish “healthy, vital congregations.”

And yet, in the midst of these important meetings, equally important work continues to be done in our individual districts. The “joy of God’s presence” is very real and has exhibited itself in the following ways:

District Lay Leader Mary Foote reported that Forest Grove UMC was the setting for this year’s Western District Leadership Event. With a focus on life-long Christian learning, Rev. Chuck Foster, author of Educating Congregations: The Future of Christian Education, was the keynote speaker and addressed over 130 people who then broke into small groups to apply his concepts to their personal and congregational lives. McMinnville Coop was the center of three days of Western District Renewal Events. The theme, “Thrive Where You’re Planted,” was based on addressing spiritual and congregational needs unique to the Pacific Northwest. Patricia Killen, author ofReligion and Public Life in the Pacific Northwest: The None Zone, was the keynote speaker. The 110+ attendees focused on beginning revitalization, worship, small group ministries, mission, and coaching. 180 Reports In the Southern District, over 100 people gathered in Roseburg to learn about “God’s Green Earth: Congregations Keeping Creation Together.” District Lay Leader Julian Tuck reported that the keynote speaker was the Rev. John Pitney, a nationally known speaker on the interaction between faith and sustainable living. An additional twelve workshops gave participants the spiritual and practical tools they needed to return home and make a difference in their communities.

Their close geographical connection gave the Metro District numerous opportunities to learn from each other. With an emphasis on cultural diversity, there was a “Nuts and Bolts” training event in January with over 100 persons in attendance. In March there was a Metro District Service Day with the opportunity to provide a day of service at a number of Portland area non-profits. The Day of Service was a great success and plans are in place for doing it again. There were two Laity Roundups, one in September by the Rev. Steve Sprecher on “Peace with Justice in the Local Church” and one in April by the Rev. Beth Ann Estock on “Reaching More People to Become Like Christ in the World.” According to District Lay Leader Norm Dyer, “It was a great year in the Lord’s Name for the Metro District.”

There has been a lot going on! We have been blessed and we have much to celebrate in our past. As we look to the future, I have felt and continue to feel “God’s unifying presence” as we journey to a new land – a new healthy and vital Annual Conference where we will proudly and joyfully live out the call that has been given to us as brothers and sisters in Christ.

United Methodist Women Carol J. Johnson, President

Oregon-Idaho Conference United Methodist Women have had a dynamic, productive year. Our approximately 4,000 members from Oregon-Idaho continue to work to support local, national and international mission. Many local mission projects have been aided through both hands-on help and monetary donations. These gifts make a difference in numerous people’s lives. National and International missions are supported through both in-kind and monetary donations. Nationally, the Women’s Division 2009 pledge to mission, supplemented by special gifts, was met.

The Idaho Legislative Education Event – Poverty in Idaho was held Feb. 21 and 22, 2010 and was highly successful. This was the first Idaho event held in four years because of capitol renovation. Plans for the Oregon Legislative Education Event are underway with expectations that it will be held in March 2011.

The first annual Charter for Racial Justice Recognition Awards were given in 2009. Recipients and congregations were pleasantly surprised when Charter for Racial Justice Committee members and others visited the recipients’ local churches to present the award. The awards were established both to recognize individuals or groups who have filled The Charter for Racial Justice objectives and also to familiarize congregations with The Charter. Currently the award nomination application for 2010 is available.

The Charter for Racial Justice Committee currently is calling for Requests for Proposals (RFP) for a $2,000 grant. The grant is to be awarded in 2010 to aid in Native American or African-American leadership development. The Isobel F. Zimmerman Trust Fund, administered for us by Women’s Division, is the source of the grant funds. Additional information on both of the above projects is available at www. umoi net/our-ministries/united-methodist-womenmen/united-methodist-women .

We continue to run successful Schools of Christian Mission in both Idaho and Oregon. In 2009 the topics were: Food and Faith, The Beauty and Courage of Sudan, and Giving our Hearts Away – Native American Survival. In 2010 we will repeat the study on Sudan and add: For the Love of God: John’s Letters and Joy to the World: Mission in the Age of Global Christianity. Won’t you join us?

We continue to work on increasing our active membership. Our goal is to provide opportunities to share the joy we have experienced while fulfilling our Purpose. Reports 181 United Methodist Men Bill Cook, President

We have been pleased with five new charters so far this year. Our umbrella ideas seem to be positive as we approach men’s ministries. Every church has active men, we urge them to become chartered, both in the Conference and with the Commission on United Methodist Men. Ideas abound, each local church has areas of interest, these put together make a vibrant group in our conference.

Adult Ministries Jane L. Hill, Coordinator

Now is the time and here is the place to celebrate Adult Ministries in the Oregon-Idaho Conference! Each of you who presents, attends or reads about the variety of ways adults in our congregations respond to the call to lay ministry are IN MINISTRY where you are, right here and right now. Some of you participated in the wide variety of Laity Workshops during 2009-2010 Annual Conference settings, others traveled to the District leadership and development gatherings and even more of you pray and plan for activities in your local congregations. Thank you for your faithfulness as we journey together and experience the support given and received.

Throughout the geographic area of our Annual Conference, leadership development and practical methods for sharing God’s love were generously shared. I am particularly inspired by my observation that, instead of larger centralized convocations and gatherings, your current way of sharing has been localized through person-to-person workshops in District-wide events and discussions in your hometown settings. These are great examples of planning for, providing and reflecting on adult ministry in the full measure of its creative and flexible possibilities. Thank you to each of you who presented or attending one of these workshops. Gratitude also is given to each of you who, once you receive the ideas and suggestions, make your own adjustment, adaptation and implementation of these practical and exciting ministries.

The result is that together, we nurture expanded adult ministry opportunities at home, in the region and throughout the full connection of The United Methodist Church. Keep up the good work, your partnership with Clergy and connection with other Laity through Adult Ministry.

Young Adult Ministries Eilidh Lowery, Coordinator

The young adult ministry team continues to focus on resourcing and supporting churches while developing young adult leaders. The primary focus has been the young adult ministry mentor program. The team is working with our first church and we have learned a lot in the process. It is exciting to connect 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. The website continues to be a place to find resources and our plan is to work more on expanding that in the coming year.

New young adults have joined the team and we continue to seek ways to connect those persons and other young adults to leadership trainings and other opportunities in the conference and beyond. Networking with lay young adults continues to be a challenge and we hope to create a web of connections over the coming year through conversations with local church leadership and by partnering with Camp and Retreat Ministries.

Rejuvenate continues to be the main programmatic focus of young adult ministry in the conference. We hope to eventually expand with retreats for newly married young adults and for others. This ministry continues to be an exciting place to work; we are blessed with very capable and talented team members. 182 Reports Board of Ordained Ministry Gay Jeffery, Chair

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

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 of absence, 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).

The board is currently composed of 26 members: 14 ordained elders, including one district superintendent; 3 ordained deacons; 1 associate member; 1 licensed local pastor; and 7 lay persons. The directory and other information about the Conference Board of Ordained Ministry can be found at www. umoibom.org.

We are committed to aligning our work with the conference strategic direction in congruence with 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 to determine standards of effectiveness and excellence in ministry. We also continue to be in dialogue with the Cabinet on ways and means to mitigate ineffectiveness. 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 ordaining are undergoing significant change.

Members of the Board of Ordained Ministry interviewed a large class of applicants for commissioning or ordination in January. We will be recommending that the clergy session approve the commissioning of several candidates as provisional deacons or elders. We will also be recommending the approval of a number of provisional members for ordination and full membership as elders. We are encouraged not just by the numbers, but also by the experience and excellence of this class.

Committee on the Episcopacy Rev. Laura Ann Beville, Chair

The Committee on the Episcopacy continues to serve in an advisory and listening role between the Bishop, his staff, and the members of the Annual Conference. Comprised of both lay and clergy, our members this year include: Andy Belcher, Jack Lorts, Brett Landman, Connie Tripp, Erin Pitney, Elizabeth Swenson, Laura Beville, Mike Gregor, Elaine Steele, Cesie Delve Scheuermann, Greg Nelson, and Laura Jaquith Bartlett.

This year, our committee worked closely with Bishop Hoshibata on the “Covenant for Vital Ministry.” Not only did each active clergyperson in our Annual Conference participate in this self-assessment, but our Bishop participated in developing a covenant with his advisory committee. Together, we uplifted the following qualities and areas of competency in Bishop Hoshibata’s work in and throughout our Annual Conference: • Passion for ministry Reports 183 • A heart for justice matters • A bridge-builder • Prayerful leadership • Spiritual leadership • Inclusive and aware of others

We agreed to support Bishop Hoshibata in his goals to enhance and measure our Annual Conference, which were: • Supporting (and modeling) self-care • Supporting the Bishop being a change-making agent and encouraging the Bishop to use the Episcopacy committee as a supportive group regarding these changes.

The Committee on the Episcopacy agreed to support the Bishop by: • Providing constructive feedback on positive and negative comments that we hear of throughout the Annual Conference. • Pray for Bishop Hoshibata and his family • Giving feedback regarding the Bishop’s “missives”

The Episcopal Residency Committee has addressed several needed maintenance tasks, lead by Michael Gregor. There are several upcoming needs that will be addressed regarding Bishop and Mrs. Hoshibata’s place of residence, including fixing the tile in the master bathroom and a crack in the kitchen ceiling.

There are many changes in our Annual Conference, including some changes that affect the Committee on the Episcopacy. The first change is the retirement of Patricia Breen, the Bishop’s Administrative Assistant, on June 30, 2010. Pat has served our Annual Conference for many years, and has been a pleasant addition to the Office of the Episcopacy. Our prayers are with her as she looks forward to new adventures of traveling to exotic locations, taking a variety of classes, tutoring ESL students, and everything else she dreams of accomplishing during her retirement!

In this time of transition, we are helping the Bishop develop a job description for the next Administrative Assistant, who will hopefully be in place by the middle of June 2010. Additionally, the Committee on the Episcopacy will serve in an advisory and listening role for the new Assistant to the Bishop for Transition, Scott Harkness.

There are many changes in our Annual Conference, and Bishop Hoshibata, Patricia Breen, Scott Harkness, and the future Administrative Assistant to the Bishop need our prayers. May God bless this Annual Conference as we create and maintain places of God’s hospitality in vital and vibrant ways.

Commission on Equitable Compensation John A. Grimsted, Chair

Our Commission’s most important job is to establish a minimum salary package. There is always a strong tension that exists between what pastors need and deserve and what churches can afford. Of course, the minimum salary package needs to be such that clergy are enabled, as the Discipline says, “to devote all your time to the work of God”.

Pastors and churches need to be aware that what the Equitable Compensation Commission establishes is a minimum salary package. Once that package is established, the church and pastor are free to move 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.

Obviously we are living in very difficult economic times. Last year the Commission recommended no increase in the minimum salary package. This year we are recommending an increase of approximately 2%. This modest increase seems appropriate, especially in light of the $600 increase in out of pocket 184 Reports expenses for health insurance. We are recommending that minimum salary packages for 2011 be set as follows: $34,900 (for elders in full connection), $33,100 (probationary/provisional members), $31,400 (local pastors). We strongly urge churches to put at least $4,200 of that total in parsonage/utilities allowance (more if possible).

In addition, the salary minimum 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 $2,700 per year.

Housing is to be included as part of the ministerial compensation package. Here is our recommendation for 2010-2011: 1. That for our purposes, every parsonage will be considered as meeting the minimum salary package. This is true whether the clergy are 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 allowing, 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 churches) and $14,000 for churches in areas with unusually high housing costs. Tier designation will be determined by the Equitable Compensation Commission. These two tiers will be reviewed every two years. Appeals may be made to the Equitable Compensation 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, 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 at $100,000, including $2,000 for the administrative costs of the Commission. This represents a decrease of $50,000 or 33.3%.

Council on Finance and Administration Ted Wimer, President

God’s gifts to us are amazing and plentiful. As Christians we are called to take care of all God has provided. Our active Stewardship includes everything from taking care of God’s people to proclaiming the Gospel and nurturing new Christians. We are thankful to God for all the gifts we have, especially God’s gift of our Savior, Jesus Christ.

The Oregon-Idaho Conference Council on Finance &Administration (CCF&A) had a year of challenges and blessings. Our blessings include the caring and careful stewards who offer their gifts of service, time and prayers. I want to thank our members of CCF&A: Rev. Scott Allen, David Clark, Karen Bolin, Alva Mitchell, Rev. Tim Novak, Rev. Debbie Pitney, Dr. Alan Stanek, Dr. Steve Tollefson, Dennis Werth, and Rev. Wendy Woodworth. I also want to recognize and thank Rev. Scott Harkness, Rev. Bonnie Parr Philipson, Rev. Bill Mullette-Bauer, and Sandra Sittser for their participation and contributions to our CCF&A business. This year, we also want to thank Bishop Hoshibata, the Bishop’s Budget Task Force, and the Conference Leadership Team (CLT) for the work they did in pursuing a new vision for our Annual Conference. We also thank all the ministry and program area leaders who had to accept cuts to their operations due to the shortfall of anticipated income from our shared ministry apportionments. The work they do in support of our overall connectional operation is essential to the health of every local church!

The challenge coming into 2009 was the continuation of the draining of our reserve fund. In the past two years we have experienced a drop of $110,000 in our General Fund reserve. CCF&A invoked a Reports 185 Spending Plan in February, 2009 to address our monthly cash flow shortages. Parts of the Spending Plan were set at the same level as had been spent in 2008. Some areas were cut across the board. Other areas had to be kept intact due to legal requirements. Many areas had to reduce their activities. The District Superintendents, their staffs, and the Conference Center Staff all accepted salary decreases to help with the continued income shortfall.

The operating results for 2009 show we received $3,604,393 in apportionment income from local churches. The approved budget for 2009 was $4,794,690. We had to use Designated Reserve funds to cover some of our expenses. Even with the spending plan in place we ended the year using $38,087 of the General Fund Reserve. This isn’t nearly as drastic as last year; however it is still taking the General Fund in the wrong direction! This reserve needs to be $1.5 million to provide three to four months operating reserves. We ended 2009 with only $569K in reserve, as you can see from the chart below. The reason: Our Conference operating budget is receiving only 75% support from our Local Churches.

As a result of the changing times and a continuation of the lower receipts from local churches paying their shared Ministries, a Budget Task Force was created by the Bishop and the CLT. The task force and CLT met throughout 2008 and 2009. They examined the overall trends and results from prior years and possible new ways of supporting our budget. Their conclusion was that we couldn’t continue to do what God is calling us to do in the same old way. Disciples are made at the Local Church level, and we need a budget which supports the empowerment of the Local Church laity and clergy leadership.

CCF&A has been working with the Bishop, CLT and the Budget task force on how to transition into this new paradigm of operation. CCF&A has changed the look of the budget into a “Unified Budget” where common areas of expense are gathered under descriptive titles. In the 2011 budget we have moved several programs into an “off-budget” category. This is in alignment with empowering local congregations to grow in their mission. Local Churches will need to continue to support our overall operating requirements that keep our Conference operating. In addition, local congregations will now be able to choose to support specific Conference programs such as Campus Ministries, Hispanic Ministries, New Church Development, and others. These second mile giving programs will appear in the “Apportioned Non-Budget Asking” category. We will provide a suggested contribution amount as a “fair-share value of support” for each church, based on their church’s Grade Figure. Each local church can then decide at what level they want to support these mission program areas.

We are grateful to those Finance Chairs, Treasurers and Pastors who deal with the day to day cash flow at their local churches and continue to pay their shared ministry apportionments in full each month. Fortunately, our economy continues to recover. We all need to pray about how we go about Making Disciples of Jesus Christ, especially during this time of transition and change in our Annual Conference. Every person makes a difference in our combined efforts. Your support allows our Connection to pursue common goals and keep the overall operating costs of being Christ’s church lower than what it would cost if each local church had to do all of its own operational nitty-gritty. God bless you. 186 Reports ANNUAL RECOMMENDATIONS OF THE COUNCIL ON FINANCE AND ADMINISTRATION 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 Team and the Director of Stewardship and Finance. 1. The first 200 miles to theAnnual Conference session will be exempted from mileage reimbursement. 2. 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 $206.15 for 2010. 3. 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. 4. 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. 5. The following organizations are given permission to solicit funds among the churches of the Conference without quota:

Rules Committee David Armstrong, Chair

The Rules Committee is not proposing any changes to the Conference Rules for the 2010 Annual Conference. If others submit any such changes, 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. Reports 187 Board of Pensions & Health Benefits Jamie Kienzle, Chair

The reserve funds used for the Board of Pensions and Health Benefits (BOP) health and pension programs have made a modest comeback in 2009. 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 2010 budget. The same will be required for the proposed 2011 budget. Limited reserve funds from the BOP will be used to prevent significant increases in the local church billed health insurance premiums and the local church billed pension payments!

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 dependents. This has also encouraged clergy spouses who have group health insurance coverage from their own employment to drop HealthFlex coverage.

The 2010 plan changes recommended for active and retired clergy health insurance were intended to eliminate the increase otherwise necessary for the billed and apportioned amounts to local churches (See 2009 AC Journal, page 201--items 4 and 5). The result of the 2010 plan changes is that the church billed active HealthFlex rate remained the same in 2010 as in 2009.

The total 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. Collectively, those factors resulted in an 8 percent premium increase for our current plan in 2011! With a BOP recommended change, the first 2011 option, for the active participant’s health plan choice of PPO B1000 (P2) premium will have a 3.4 percent increase. The second recommended option, the Consumer Driven Health Plan--CDHP (P2) plan will also have a 3.4 percent increase from the 2010 premium. However, it is the intention of the BOP to keep the 2011 church HealthFlex billed rate the same as 2010 by drawing on limited reserve funds and by covering the remaining 2011 3.4 percent premium increase.

The Board of Pensions is sensitive to the direct effect on the clergy on raising their health insurance deductibles, but must balance that effect in NOT raising the local churches’ billed monthly clergy health insurance premiums. We are very excited about the Consumer Driven Health Plan (CDHP) option and the advantages of that plan. The CDHP plan stresses wellness and preventative care as part of its medical coverage.

There will be 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 will be studying the healthcare bill to understand immediate and future changes (if any) to the current HealthFlex health insurance plans.

Policy Changes: The BOP continues to review all policies on a regular basis. 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. Unpaid retiree health insurance premiums: That where a person who is delinquent after two months, they will receive a letter, after 4 months they will receive a letter requesting payment in full and requirement of making Pension Insurance deduction or EFT, and insurance will be dropped at 6 months. 2. The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference will make disability payments to those granted Incapacity Leave for up to three months while the disability claim is being adjudicated.

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 (CRSP) approved by the 2004 General Conference. There are presently 160 clergy actively serving the Oregon-Idaho annual conference and 10 disabled clergy all in the CRSP pension system. Of those 170 persons, 43 percent are female and 57 percent are male. 188 Reports Funding for the CRSP pension program will come from billings to local congregations. For 2011 local congregations will pay 13% of the pastor’s compensation. Previous subsidy from the Pre-1982 “over- funding” to CRSP is no longer available for 2010 and 2011 since the Pre-1982 program is no longer significantly over-funded. Without using other BOP funds, the CRSP-DB 2011 local church pension billings would need to be increased to 16% of the pastor’s compensation. The BOP thought the increase to 16% of the local church CRSP billings would be too burdensome to local churches.

Unpaid Clergy Pension billings: The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference is billed monthly by the General Board of Pensions and Health Benefits for health insurance and pension contributions for each active clergy or employee in the conference. The annual conference is obligated to pay even when a church does not pay their health insurance or the pension contributions on time. The Board of Pensions (BOP) faces a difficult decision when a church is several months behind in health insurance payments, and our present policy allows for dropping health insurance coverage of the individual clergy serving that church after a considerable effort has been made to collect past payments. The conference bears the cost of the unpaid premiums. However, there is presently no recourse for unpaid pension payments other than Cabinet action, and we are forced to include these deficits in our BOP budget.

Portland Korean and Grace Korean churches have not paid their clergy’s pension contribution for 2009, the amount of which is $10,134.00. In the BOP’s 2009 budget, we have had to draw on reserves to pay for the unpaid pension billings for 2009 for these two churches. Over the past five years, the amount of unpaid health insurance and pension payments for these two churches, paid from the BOP reserves, has been $116,850.56. As of this date, the treasurer’s office has NOT received any 2010 pension payments from the two Korean churches.

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.

In early 2009 we learned that due to the stock market decline, the funding levels for the CRSP and the MPP (Ministerial Pension Plan) had fallen below acceptable levels. Additional deposits would be required starting in 2011 for seven years. For our conference the initial estimate was $236,000 for MPP and $179,000 for CRSP. The General Board of Pension and Health Benefits (GBOPHB) has studied how it could provide some relief to annual conferences in this economy. The result is a premium holiday in the CPP premiums billed to each annual conference for three years and drawing on the General Board’s reserves. The money from the CPP premium holiday is reserved for unfunded pension plans including CRSP and MPP.

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 (CRSP) and Ministerial Pension Plan (MPP) expected increased payments due to the 2008 stock market losses. We choose to select the CPP premium holiday for the years 2010, 2011, and 2012.

The additional contribution requirement for 2011 will be $256,926 for MPP in 2011 and $65,034 for CRSP. The projected conference FTE of 157.5 for the 2011 payments will require the total conference CRSP-DB contributions of $1,092,162. 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 2011increased CRSP-DB and MPP contributions and future conference contributions.

Pre-1982 Pension Plan: This is the 7th 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 2011 pension rate for the Pre-82 plan to $524 per service year. This is 1% of the Conference Average Compensation.

Health Insurance Matters: The 2009 active plan loss ratio was 116 % and the Medicare Companion Reports 189 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 change in the 2010 active and Medicare supplement deductible (approved at the 2009 AC) went into effect in January, 2010. The 2010 actives plan is presently PPO B750 (FX2) and the Medicare Companion is Plan 1 (FX2). If the BOP recommended plan changes to the active HealthFlex plan are not made, then the active plan premiums will need to increase by 8 percent for 2011 or about $90 per month for each local church billed amount. The 2011 Medicare companion plan if unchanged would need a 7.1 percent increase.

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

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 the 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.

Wellness Incentives: ProCheck screening will be free to all HealthFlex participants on Friday and Saturday morning at the 2010 annual conference. It is preferred that you fast before the check, but some adjustments can be made is you don’t fast. The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference received a wellness credit from HealthFlex for $18, 879. This rebate was based on the conference’s participation in the Health Quotient (HQ), the ProCheck screenings, and the Virgin Health Miles (VHM) walking and exercise program! The BOP has arranged for computers to be available at the annual conference site for all participants to complete their HQ! Please take advantage of those computers to fill out your HQ! Congratulations to all those who completed the HQ, did the ProCheck screening, and added miles on the Virgin Health Miles (VHM) program. These are the 2009 incentive numbers: Active participants or spouses—170 HQs completed and 87 completed the ProCheck. Because VHM rewarded active participants and retired participants, there were 21 retired clergy and 17 spouses of retired clergy that participated in the VHM program! In 2009, all active HealthFlex participants and spouses received total incentives payments of $2,175 for ProCheck and $17,000 for HQ completion! Rewards for all VHM participants were $23,475! Did you get your VHM rewards?

The HealthFlex incentive program has changed for 2010. It is the expectation of HealthFlex that ALL active participants or retired participants under the age of 65 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 assistance calls can specify at the first call or at any time and the health assistance calls will stop! Other online HealthFlex helps are also available.

There will still be 2010 cash incentives through the Virgin Health Miles program. A credit of 500 health miles will be awarded for the pro check and 500 health miles for completing the HQ. However, if the Health Quotient (HQ) is NOT completed by the participant and covered spouse by August 1, 2010, those individual’s or family’s health insurance deductible will increase in 2011! For those NOT completing the HQ by August 1, 2010, the plan deductible will increase by $250 for a single participant or $500 for a family effective in 2011. 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.

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 million (as of 1/1/2010, down from $4.4 million as of January 1, 2008). 190 Reports 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 beginning in 2011. Based on a one-time request, the BOP allotted $17,000 from the Health Insurance Reserve Account to reduce the retiree health Insurance subsidy budgeted item in the Ministry Support part of the 2010 annual conference budget. This is intended to help balance the 2010 budget.

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 currently the 2010 PPO B750 (FX)—(prescription Fixed copay 2 or FX2) change for 2011 to 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 currently the 2010 Medicare Companion Plan 1 (FX2) change for 2011 to 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. Premium payment, by the percentage indicated below, for those retirees eligible for the Conference Health Insurance Plan based on years of credited service in the Oregon-Idaho Conference and/or the Alaska Missionary Conference: 1-4 years not eligible 10-14 years 60% subsidy 5-9 Years 50% subsidy 15-19 years 70% subsidy 20 years or more 75% subsidy

7. That the retiree premium payments change in 2011 to the following: a. Those current retirees with twenty or more of Pre-1982 service credit have the same premium coverage as 6 c. above—no change. b. Beginning in 2011, that the subsidy payments for all other current retirees be reduced by 5 percentage points from 2011 to 2015. (See the 2009 Annual Conference Journal, Page 200) c. After December 31, 2011, all new retirees will receive premium payment, by the percentage Reports 191 indicated below, for those retirees eligible for the Conference Health Insurance Plan based on years of credited service in the Oregon-Idaho Conference and/or the Alaska Missionary Conference: 1-4 years not eligible 10-14 years 25% subsidy 5-9 years not eligible 15-19 years 30% subsidy 20-24 years 35% subsidy 25-29 years 40% subsidy 30-34 years 45% subsidy 35 years or more 50% subsidy

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, 2011, the Pre-82 (MRPF) pension rate for ordained and local pastors shall be $524.00 per service year (2.5 percent increase), 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 Ministerial Support Apportionment for the 2010 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. 4. That the previous 2010 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. The CRSP-DB and MPP pension funds are now underfunded due to 2008 stock market losses. 5. Up to 100% of the year 2011 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 10-13, 2010 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 2011 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 thereunder 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.

The Past Service Rate (PSR) for the Oregon-Idaho Conference is established annually by action of the Annual Conference. For the year 2010, our Annual Conference set this PSR amount at $514.00

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 2010, our CAC is $51,153. At $514.00 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 $21,031,230. 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). For 2008 we did use $200,000. Due to the decline in market value of the Pre-82 account, we did not use any of the overfunding in 2009, nor do we plan to do so in 2010.

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, 2008 for 2010, is summarized as follows:

Present Value of Benefits as defined by GBOPHB Funds in the plan $21,031,230 $31,893,947

The Conference Archives is located in the Micah Building at First United Methodist Church in Salem, Oregon. To gain access to them you will need to contact Don and Shirley Knepp, our Oregon Records Archivists to make arrangements to visit them. They work hard to keep up with the new materials received from Conference Boards and Agencies along with materials received from local churches and the requests for information and give assistance to local churches.

Linda Tewksbury is the Idaho Records Archivist and 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. The records are kept in a climate controlled facility which only allows access 2 to 3 times a week when needed. Linda does keep a number of working files at her home for immediate access when working on projects and responding to requests for information.

The Commission has a core of hard working volunteers which are the key to the progress that is being made in computerizing and updating our records.

The Commission is asking our 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.

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 for the Idaho churches archives.

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 also like to receive notices of church anniversaries or other historic celebrations. Remember to send copies of your special programs, bulletins or newsletters to the Conference Archives. 196 Reports United Methodist Ministers’ Retirement Fund Betty Foster, President

We are saddened by the retirement of Dr. Raymond Balcomb as president of this committee for reasons of ill health. We thank him for his commitment and knowledgeable leadership during his many years of service.

The investment committee, with the commitment of providing our service to the Conference Board of Pensions, has had a challenging year. The fund will not be able to give as much to the Conference Pension fund as last year; however, we are able to give $91,181.00. This will directly impact the amount each congregation would otherwise need to pay for their apportionment for pensions.

A fund letter was sent to members of the United Methodist Church in the last quarter of 2009. It raised $6295.00, which is added to the investment portfolio. Donations from wills, gifts and endowments are always welcome to increase the ability to serve in this way.

The committee feels a great responsibility to deal with the monies entrusted to us in the best way and with the best knowledge available to meet the need of our retired clergy.

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

Few Christians would disagree that Christ taught us to love our neighbors and to demonstrate that love by feeding the hungry, healing the sick and clothing the naked. We generally support the idea of Christian charity without hesitation. Advocating for justice is not nearly as well accepted as part of our call as Christians. Our Social Principles, however, are very clear on that point: “The strength of a political system depends upon the full and willing participation of its citizens. The church should continually exert a strong ethical influence upon the state, supporting policies and programs deemed to be just and opposing policies and programs that are unjust.” - Social Principles of the United Methodist Church 164 B. Therefore, the Bishop’s Task Force to Eliminate Hunger has been working to encourage increased involvement in advocacy.

Two workshops on advocacy-one in Oregon and one in Idaho-were planned in April. Members of the task force are willing to provide similar training to individual congregations so that we may all more fully live out our calls to discipleship.

Thanks again to a generous outpouring of support through the Change Hunger Fast offering at Annual Conference, we were able to fill several grant requests. Cornelius UMC, as part ofWestern Washington County Hispanic Ministries, used grant monies to host a bilingual, multigenerational theater class that incorporated cooking and gardening themes, and provided a bilingual home nutrition and food preparation course focusing on the use of inexpensive ingredients and foods commonly distributed at food pantries. Hillsboro UMC expanded their weekend backpack program and offered classes on food and nutrition, and food preparation demonstrations for persons receiving food from the community food pantry. Ontario First UMC, a partner in the Next Chapter Food Pantry, needed assistance for their ecumenical “shopping style” food pantry. Emmett UMC, a partner in the Emmett Valley Friendship Coalition, is continuing to upgrade their kitchen to meet the needs of their rapidly growing programs and will be purchasing a commercial grade dishwasher. Family Kitchen, of which Bend UMC is a member, is also involved in a kitchen remodel and needed funds to purchase a convection oven.

These, and so many other congregations, are reaching into their communities in substantial ways, working in interfaith partnerships, and opening their doors and hearts to community members regardless of religious affiliation. Many are also engaged with the Idaho Interfaith RoundtableAgainst Hunger (IIRAH) and the Oregon Faith Roundtable Against Hunger (OFRAH) in contacting elected officials, advocating for legislation that will address the root causes of hunger in all our communities. Reports 197 District Hunger Coordinators continue to be available for consultation, training and assistance in implementing new ministries. District Coordinators are: Central District – Lisa Radford; Eastern District – Shannon Jensen; Metro District – Janice Stevens; Southern District – Bob Hartsock; Western District – Gerry and Dotty Edy. In addition to their work on the task force, Gerry and Dotty Edy have become State Conveners for OPRAH. Special thanks and recognition go to Bob Hartsock, who has been forced to resign due to health concerns, for all the work he has done in Western District.

The Hunger Task Force welcomes suggestions for more effectively connecting with all congregations throughout our conference. Names and email addresses of District Hunger Coordinators and Task Force members may be found on the conference web site. We also encourage each congregation to get to know their state legislators during the time they are not in session. Invite them to an informal gathering, make them aware of the need in your community and share the work you are doing to eliminate hunger through education, advocacy and direct service.

Africa University Jim Salley, Associate Vice-Chancellor for Institutional Advancement

Africa University has many stories to tell – to the nations of Africa, and the world.

During Zimbabwe’s economic and political struggles of recent years, United Methodist-related Africa University continued to educate leaders for all of Africa. For a time in 2009, it was the only institution of higher education in Zimbabwe open for classes. We celebrated our 3,000th graduate with the 2009 graduating class.

In the 2009-2010 academic year, our 1,100 students represented 28 African countries. We have a substantial waiting list of students eager to attend on campus or through our emerging distance-learning curriculum.

For all of this, we thank God for the prayers and support of United Methodists. In 2009, annual conferences contributed more than $2 million to the apportioned Africa University Fund. That represents 86 percent of the $2.5 million goal set by the 2008 General Conference.

United Methodists’ support for Africa University creates opportunities for Africans to help Africans. Our graduates are living out the United Methodist vision for the Four Areas of Focus:

Leadership: The Rev. Tolbert Thomas Jallah Jr. is a prime example. A graduate of AU’s Institute of Peace, Leadership and Governance, the former advisor to Liberian President Ellen Johnson Sirleaf is now Secretary General of the Fellowship of Christian Councils of Churches in West Africa.

Global Health: Bigi Ruhigita, a nurse from the Democratic Republic of Congo, earned her master’s degree in public health at AU. She returned to Congo to work in a 50-bed clinic she and her siblings founded in honor of their father.

Ministry with the Poor: Isaiah Njimbu, a 2006 graduate, returned to Lubumbashi, DRC, to find many children orphaned because their parents died of AIDS. In response, Njimbu started the Child Action Initiative, a nongovernment organization. Today, this ministry still thrives.

Church Growth: The Rev. Daniel Mhone was instrumental in establishing 28 local churches in the newly established Malawi (Africa) Missionary Conference. He credits Africa University for increasing his capacity as a pastor.

In December 2009, we joyfully celebrated the inauguration of Bishop David Kekumba Yemba and professor Fanuel Tagwira as the university’s third chancellor and vice chancellor.

Democratic Republic of Congo President Joseph Kabila praised the university’s dedication to Africa at 198 Reports our annual seminar commemorating former United Nations Secretary General Dag Hammarskjöld.

Every annual conference is vital to the success of the dream that has become Africa University. Your support educates leaders in theology, agriculture, social sciences, health sciences, and peace and justice.

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

Guided by our mission to educate faithful and creative leaders for the church’s ministries in the world, Candler School of Theology continues to proclaim the Gospel of Jesus Christ by developing leaders called by God to serve in Christian ministry. Our distinctive commitment to both inspiring minds and empowering 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.

As one of the 13 official seminaries of The United Methodist Church, Candler is grounded in the Christian faith and shaped by the Wesleyan tradition of evangelical piety, ecumenical openness, and social concern. As one of nine graduate professional schools of Emory University, Candler provides a rich context for learning and formation supported by the extensive resources of a top-tier research university. As a school located in the major metropolitan area of Atlanta, Georgia, Candler offers students a learning laboratory that reflects the highly diverse communities of our 21st century world.There is no better place for preparation that addresses our major denominational priorities: developing leaders, starting and growing churches, ministry with the poor, and improving global health.

To ensure that our students are prepared for leadership in an increasingly global context, Candler has placed a new emphasis on internationalizing the curriculum. In 2009, we established the Office of International Initiatives, led by Dr. David Jenkins, and received several grants related to international engagement. Through one of these, Candler partnered with International Relief and Development, Inc. to send seven student interns to Mozambique, Indonesia, and the Republic of Georgia in the summer of 2009. Other grants are assisting Candler in initiating a national conversation on best practices for internationalizing theological education. In spring semester of 2010, Dr. Wesley de Souza, Arthur J. Moore associate professor in the practice of evangelism, team-taught a distance education class in real time with a professor and students at a seminary in Sao Paolo, Brazil, the first collaboration of its kind at Candler. The March 2010 visit of Roman Catholic Cardinal Walter Kasper, president of the Pontifical Council for Promoting Christian Unity, ushered in a yearlong special emphasis on internationalization at Candler.

A hallmark of the Candler MDiv experience, the Contextual Education program continues to shape our students’ pastoral identities by interweaving service at ministry sites and churches with academic reflection in the classroom. 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. Last year, Candler’s ConEd students provided 1/3 of the service hours responsible for Emory University winning the U.S. government’s Presidential Award for General Community Service, the highest federal award a college or university can receive for its commitment to community engagement.

Candler’s Teaching Parish Program, directed by Dr. Alice Rogers, continues to expand into more conferences in the Southeastern Jurisdiction, providing United Methodist students with the opportunity to serve churches throughout their seminary education, earn academic credit for pastoral experience, and complete their MDiv degree in three years. Through the Course of Study regional school at Candler and our five extension schools in the Southeast, we oversaw the educational process of 918 people this past year.

Bishop’s Award

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

Maximum Funding for the above four categories over each quadrennium is based on the applicant’s base salary in the year of the application. The average conference salary for that year shall be that computed by the Conference Board of Pensions. Maximum Funding per Quadrennium: Salary is less than average conference salary (ACS) $2,800 Salary not more than $3,000 over ACS $2,400 Salary is more than $3,000 over ACS $2,000

Seminars and other group educational events, such as Pastor’s School, are very helpful in providing quality continuing education for clergy in our conference. Consequently groups which are hosting seminars or other group educational events for pastors may apply for grants for as much as 50% of the cost of the event, with the maximum grant not to exceed $1,500 for anyone event.

5. Scholarship assistance is available to those from outside our denomination who must com- plete the “Methodist Requirements” prior to joining our conference 224 Conference Policies

SAFE SANCTUARIES ABUSE PREVENTION POLICY For Conference & District Events of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church

INTRODUCTION Our hope and belief today is that the church is a place where all people will find the unconditional love and care they so desperately need to grow and thrive. But, we know that abuse occurs in churches, large and small, urban and rural. It is a problem, which cuts across all economic, cultural, and racial lines. In April 1996, the General Conference of The United Methodist Church adopted a resolution aimed at reducing the risk of abuse of children, youth, and vulnerable adults in the church. It was renewed by the 2004 General Conference (Resolution 65, “Reducing the Risk of Child Sexual Abuse in Churches, pg. 201, 2004 Book of Resolutions). As Christians we must take our responsibilities to our children, youth, and vulnerable adults very seriously. While we may not be able to completely prevent abuse in every situation, it is possible for us to greatly reduce the risk by following a policy of prevention. We are responsible to create an environment of safe sanctuary for children, youth and vulnerable adults, and those who work with them. Thus we establish this Abuse Prevention Policy to demonstrate our absolute and unwavering commitment to the safety of all our children, youth, and vulnerable adults.

PURPOSE It is the purpose of this policy to 1) protect from abuse the children, youth, and vulnerable adults that participate in church activities, and 2) protect our staff, both paid and volunteer, from unfounded and/or malicious allegations of abuse through a comprehensive plan that includes: screening, training, supervision, reporting procedures, and a response plan.

SCOPE This policy shall be applicable to all Conference and District activities or events involving children, youth, and vulnerable adults within ministry settings of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference. Conference Policies 227

DEFINITIONS • Abuse: Intentional negligent or reckless treatment by a volunteer or staff person that is harmful, injurious, or offensive. Child Abuse – an act committed by a parent, care giver or person in a position of trust which is not accidental and which harms or threatens a child’s physical or mental health or a child’s welfare. Physical Abuse – When an adult injures a child other by accident, including, assault, shaking, slapping, burning, scalding, kicking, and strangling. Sexual Abuse – Sexual contact between an adult or other significantly older, more powerful person and a child, youth, and vulnerable adult. Includes behavior such as inappropriate verbal stimulation, taking or showing sexually explicit photos of or to a child, or exposing a child to pornography or adult sexual activity. Emotional Abuse – verbal assault or emotional cruelty that effects a child’s self esteem. • Adult: a person 18 years old or older. • Activities: any activity or programs in which children, youth, or vulnerable adults are under supervision of staff persons or volunteers. • Background Checks: Researching references and records for indications of past or potential abusive and/or criminal activity. • Child: person from birth until they turn 12 years old. • Conference: The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church. • District: The level of church organization between the Conference and the local church. There are five Districts in the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference; Central, Eastern, Metropolitan, Southern, and Western. • Ministry setting: (To be defined) • Person-in-Charge (PIC): Staff person or volunteer who is the person responsible for the event or activity. • Staff person: any person employed by the Conference or District that is responsible for activities involving children, youth, or vulnerable adults. • Volunteer: a person who assists in conducting activities under the supervision of person(s) in charge. • Vulnerable Adults: any person 18 years of age or older with diminished physical, mental, or emotional capacities. • We: The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference. • Youth: any person 12 years old to his/her 18th birthday.

SCREENING PROCEDURES Careful screening can be important to the prevention of abuse. It provides some assurance that the most reliable, committed and experienced staff and volunteers are in place for every program that involves children, youth, and vulnerable adults. The following are the MINIMUM standards: 1. All adults, volunteer or staff persons, who have regular and direct contact with children, youth, and vulnerable adults shall be required to complete the “Voluntary Disclosure” form. 2. Minimum background screenings shall include:

a) Reference checks from Voluntary Disclosure form. b) Review of the Oregon and Idaho lists of sexual offenders or State or National criminal background checks. 3. The policy shall be implemented in the following manner:

a) All staff persons and volunteers, who have regular and direct contact with children, youth, 228 Conference Policies

and vulnerable adults will submit to the screening procedures. b) The screening procedure shall be repeated every five years. c) The person in charge of the event and/or their designee is responsible for review and approving each application before a person’s service begins. d) All records are confidential and will be maintained for a period of at least five years.

SUPERVISION Competent and trained staff and volunteers are important to any event. The procedures described below are designed to reduce the possibility of abuse to children, youth and vulnerable adults, and to protect staff persons and volunteers from unfounded accusations.

The following are MINIMUM standards and each event may adopt more stringent requirements if necessary. 1. Training is required for all persons having direct contact with children, youth, and vulnerable adults. Training shall include an annual orientation that includes information about this Policy, supervision of children, youth, and vulnerable adults, and identification and reporting of abuse. 2. All children, youth, and vulnerable adults will be supervised by adults. No adult will be alone with any one child, youth or vulnerable adult out of sight of others. 3. No person shall supervise any group of children or youth unless he/she is AT LEAST 5 years older than the children or youth.

REPORTING Once an incident of abuse is recognized, it is crucial that it be dealt with speedily and in a clearly outlined manner. The adult who observes or hears of an alleged abuse shall: 1. Assure the safety of the victim. Take whatever the victim says very seriously. Make sure that the victim is in a safe place and watched over. Do not confront the accused abuser with anger or hostility but immediately remove him/ her from further involvement with children and youth until the matter can be investigated. Notify the proper authorities. 2. If there is a situation of immediate risk call the police at 911, otherwise follow the procedure as listed below: a) Report the incident immediately to the Person-in-Charge (PIC) of the event or activity in which the incident occurred. b) The PIC shall: i) Ascertain the details needed to make an accurate report. This report must be made within 24 hours. The report should include the following information if obtainable: • The name, address, age and sex of the alleged victim; • The name and address of the alleged victim’s parents or other person responsible for his/her care; • The nature and extent of the alleged abuse or neglect; • Any evidence of previously known or suspected abuse or neglect of the alleged victim or their siblings; • The name, address and relationship, if known, of the person who is alleged to have perpetrated the abuse or neglect; and • Any other information known to the person making the report that would be helpful to the investigation of the alleged abuse. ii) Contact the appropriate State or law enforcement agency as soon as possible to file the abuse report and provide the aforementioned information and follow the instructions of the agency. iii) Notify one of those trained and designated by the Conference to respond to reports of abuse as listed in the Crisis Communications Plan. The alleged perpetrators of the abuse will be required to refrain from all events involving children, youth and vulnerable adults until the incident report is resolved. In any removal of a person from any activities, care must be taken to handle this in a discreet manner, recognizing that an investigation is being conducted. Conference Policies 229

RESPONSE PLAN • A quick, compassionate and unified response to an alleged incident of abuse is expected. All allegations will be taken seriously. In all cases of reported or observed abuse in an activity, the entire staff of that activity shall be at the service of all official investigating agencies. • Follow the procedures outlined in the Crisis Communications Plan, When a Crisis Strikes…Are You Ready? • Pastoral support shall be available and offered to all persons involved with the incident.

TRAINING The Conference shall develop and implement training and orientation procedures for persons in leadership who work with children, youth, and vulnerable adults in local ministry settings within the Annual Conference. Training shall include but is not limited to this policy and its related procedures.

POLICY REVIEW

All abuse prevention policies will be reviewed annually.

CONCLUSION In all of our ministries we are committed to demonstrating the love of Jesus Christ so that each child, youth, and vulnerable adult is “surrounded by steadfast love…established in the faith, and confirmed and strengthened in the way that leads to life eternal” (Baptismal Covenant II,United Methodist Hymnal, pg 44). This policy and associated procedures are effective as of July 1, 2008. The policy will be reviewed on an annual basis in a manner determined by the Conference Leadership Team. Modifications will be made subject to the approval of the Conference Leadership Team. All such modifications will be promptly conveyed in writing to all persons affected by the modification.

SAFE SANCTUARIES ABUSE PREVENTION POLICY

Minimum Standards for Abuse Prevention Policies of Local Ministry Settings

INTRODUCTION Our hope and belief today is that the church is a place where all people will find the unconditional love and care they so desperately need to grow and thrive. But, we know that abuse occurs in churches, large and small, urban and rural. It is a problem, which cuts across all economic, cultural, and racial lines. In April 1996, the General Conference of The United Methodist Church adopted a resolution aimed at reducing the risk of abuse of children, youth, and vulnerable adults in the church. It was renewed by the 2004 General Conference (Resolution 65, “Reducing the Risk of Child Sexual Abuse in Churches, pg. 201, 2004 Book of Resolutions). As Christians we must take our responsibilities to our children, youth, and vulnerable adults very seriously. While we may not be able to completely prevent abuse in every situation, it is possible for us to greatly reduce the risk by following a policy of prevention. We are responsible to create an environment of safe sanctuary for children, youth and vulnerable adults, and those who work with them. Thus the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference has established for its local ministry settings these minimum standards for abuse prevention to demonstrate our concern for and commitment to the safety of all our children, youth, and vulnerable adults.. 230 Conference Policies

POLICY All local ministry settings of the annual conference need to have an Abuse Prevention (aka “Safe Sanctuaries”) Policy. All employees and volunteers covered by the policy are to be trained on the policy. The policy shall be reviewed annually by the appropriate body and revised as necessary. Update trainings are necessary for all employees and volunteers following any revisions to the policy.

PURPOSE The purpose of these minimum standards is to establish a basic level of abuse prevention in ministry- settings across the annual conference, regardless of size, location, or average age of membership. In many cases, higher standards for abuse prevention can be instituted and should be. But these minimum standards are expected of all local ministry settings as they develop their own abuse prevention policies that will: 1) protect from abuse the children, youth, and vulnerable adults that participate in church activities, and 2) protect staff, both paid and volunteer, from unfounded and/or malicious allegations of abuse through a comprehensive plan that includes: screening, training, supervision, reporting procedures, and a response plan.

SCOPE These minimum standards for abuse prevention shall be applicable to all ministry-settings within the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference that involve children, youth, and vulnerable adults. In general, the term “ministry settings” refers to chartered local churches, unchartered fellowships, cooperative parishes, campus ministries and camp sites.

DEFINITIONS • Abuse: Intentional negligent or reckless treatment by a volunteer or staff person that is harmful, injurious, or offensive. Child Abuse – an act committed by a parent, care giver or person in a position of trust which is not accidental and which harms or threatens a child’s physical or mental health or a child’s welfare.

Sexual Abuse – Sexual contact between an adult or other significantly older, more powerful person and a child, youth, and vulnerable adult. Includes behavior such as inappropriate verbal stimulation, taking or showing sexually explicit photos of or to a child, or exposing a child to pornography or adult sexual activity. Emotional Abuse – verbal assault or emotional cruelty that effects a child’s self esteem. • Adult: a person 18 years old or older. • Activities: any activity or programs in which children, youth, or vulnerable adults are under supervision of staff persons or volunteers. • Background Checks: Researching references and records for indications of past or potential abusive and/or criminal activity. • Child: person from birth until they turn 12 years old. • Conference: The Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church. • District: The level of church organization between the Conference and the local church.

MINIMUM STANDARDS FOR SCREENING PROCEDURES Careful screening can be important to the prevention of abuse. It provides some assurance that the most reliable, committed and experienced staff and volunteers are in place for every program that involves children, youth, and vulnerable adults. The following are the MINIMUM standards for screening procedures to be incorporated into ministry setting abuse prevention policies: 1. All adults, volunteer or staff persons, who have regular and direct contact with children, youth, and vulnerable adults shall be required to complete an application including voluntary disclosure of information including legal name and other names previously used, date of birth, and voluntary disclosure of any convictions of abusive behavior. 2. Minimum background screenings shall include:

a) Reference checks from application form. b) Review of the Oregon and Idaho lists of sexual offenders or State or National criminal background checks. 3. At minimum, ministry setting abuse prevention policies shall incorporate the followingr

a) All staff persons and volunteers, who have regular and direct contact with children, youth, and vulnerable adults will submit to the screening procedures. b) Reviewing bodies shall be established (ex: Pastor/Staff Parish Relations Committee, Education or Nurture Committee, or other organized body). c) The reviewing body is responsible for review and approval of each application before a person’s service begins. d) The screening procedure for each individual shall be repeated every five years. e) All records are confidential and will be maintained for a period of at least five years. f) The ministry setting will not knowingly hire anyone with a history of committing sexual abuse on any child, youth or vulnerable adult.

MINIMUM STANDARDS FOR SUPERVISION Competent and trained staff and volunteers are important to any activity or program in the local church or ministry setting. The procedures described below are designed to reduce the possibility of abuse to children, youth and vulnerable adults, and to protect staff persons and volunteers from unfounded accusations.

The following are MINIMUM standards for supervision to be incorporated into ministry setting policies: 1. Required training for all persons having direct contact with children, youth, and vulnerable adults. Training shall include an annual orientation that includes information about the local ministry setting abuse prevention policy 2. Our standard practice is that all children, youth, and vulnerable adults will be supervised by adults. Our standard practice is that no adult will be alone with any one child, youth or vulnerable adult out of sight of others. The minimum standard is an open space (open door, window, etc) such that activities can be observed. In addition, an adult is assigned to periodically observe the activities. 3. No person shall supervise an age group a group of children or youth unless he/she is AT LEAST 5 years older than the children or youth.

MINIMUM STANDARDS FOR REPORTING AND RESPONSE Once an incident of abuse is recognized, it is crucial that it be dealt with speedily and in a clearly outlined manner. A quick, compassionate and unified response to an alleged incident of abuse is expected. All 232 Conference Policies allegations will be taken seriously. In all cases of reported or observed abuse in a program or activity, all persons involved in the program or activity shall be at the service of all official investigating agencies. Pastoral support shall be available and offered to persons involved in the incident.

The alleged perpetrators of the abuse are to be excluded from future events involving children, youth and vulnerable adults until the incident report is resolved. In any removal of a person from any activities, care must be taken to handle this in a discreet manner, recognizing that an investigation is being conducted.

MINIMUM STANDARD FOR TRAINING The MINIMUM standard for training to be incorporated into ministry setting policies is that each local church or ministry setting shall implement or participate in training and orientation procedures for persons in leadership who work with children, youth, and vulnerable adults. Training shall include but is not limited to the local ministry setting’s abuse prevention policy and its related procedures.

MINIMUM STANDARD FOR POLICY REVIEW The MINIMUM standard for policy review to be incorporated into ministry-setting policies is that the abuse prevention policy in each ministry setting shall be reviewed annually at the charge or church conference.

CONCLUSION In all of our ministries we are committed to demonstrating the love of Jesus Christ so that each child, youth, and vulnerable adult is “surrounded by steadfast love…established in the faith, and confirmed and strengthened in the way that leads to life eternal” (Baptismal Covenant II, United Methodist Hymnal, pg Conference Policies 233

44). The minimum standards for abuse prevention policies of ministry settings are effective as of July 1, 2008. They will be reviewed on an annual basis in a manner determined by the Conference Leadership Team. Modifications will be made subject to the approval of the Conference Leadership Team. All such modifications will be promptly conveyed in writing to all persons affected by the modification. Adopted June 2008, revised June 2010

Sexual Ethics Policy For Clergy1 of the Oregon Idaho Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church.

Statement of Policy: Clergy and employees of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church shall not engage in sexual misconduct, sexual abuse, or sexual harassment.

Theological Foundation2 The 2004 Book of Discipline states in ¶161(G) the following. “We recognize that sexuality is God’s good gift to all persons. We believe persons may be fully human only when that gift is acknowledged and affirmed by themselves, the church, and society. We call all persons to the disciplined, responsible fulfillment of themselves, others, and society in the stewardship of this gift.We reject all sexual expressions that damage or destroy the humanity God has given us as birthright, and we affirm only that sexual expression that enhances that same humanity. We believe that sexual relations where one or both partners are exploitive, abusive, or promiscuous are beyond the parameters of acceptable Christian behavior and are ultimately destructive to individuals, families, and the social order.” Sexual misconduct involves a misuse of the gift of sexuality. Acts that should signify the intimacy of a committed relationship between equal partners instead are tainted with ambivalence, confusion, guilt and sometimes fear. Secrecy, which often accompanies such acts, only reinforces these feelings and further signals that there is something “wrong” with the relationship. Sexual misconduct within a ministerial relationship leaves the victim bearing a burden of trauma attached to their expression of sexuality. Victims are thus robbed of the joyous celebration of the sacredness and dignity of their sexuality. God entrusts the workers in the church with the responsibilities of sharing both Holy love and the Divine Word. Our sexual behavior, like any of our behaviors, must comply with the highest standards of a Christ-like life. We in the church are expected to live in covenant with each other and hold each other to those standards. By being speakers of the Truth, persons are offered freedom and redemption and God’s Grace can be employed for restoration of right relationships and alternative paths.

Definitions Clergy: Clergy membership of the Oregon Idaho Annual Conference consists of Deacons and Elders in full connection, probationary members, associate members, affiliate members, local pastors and retired members within the meaning of ¶602.1 of the 2004 Book of Discipline of The United Methodist Church. Clergy Relationship - A clergy relationship exists between a clergy person and any other person (i) when the other person is a parishioner of a congregation to which that clergy person was previously or is currently appointed, (ii) when the other person is supervised by, is a colleague with or receives ministry from a clergy person serving in any function for which he or she was ordained, licensed, hired or approved by the Annual Conference or its representatives, (iii) when a clergy person uses the authority of the clergy office or role in establishing a relationship with the other person, and (iv) when the other person is a member of a community which recognizes the authority of the clergy person as a person in ministry (i.e. appointments beyond the local church and honorable location, retirement, leaves of absence and other situations in which a clergy person serves a community other than a local congregation). 234 Conference Policies

Clergy Sexual Misconduct: Clergy sexual misconduct occurs whenever a clergy person initiates or allows any sexual contact or behavior with a person with whom he or she has a clergy relationship and includes, but is not limited to, sexual abuse and sexual harassment. This includes the chargeable offenses listed in ¶2702 of the 2004 Book of Discipline of The United Methodist Church. Clergy sexual misconduct must be understood primarily as an issue of the abuse of the power, trust, and status inherently present in any clergy relationship rather than an issue of the sexual morality of an individual clergy person. An inherent imbalance of power exists in any clergy relationship simply through the clergy role and totally separate from the clergy person’s character, personality and style of ministry. A similar imbalance of power can also exist when one clergy supervises another clergy. The same sacred trust inherent in ordination, consecration and licensing that makes effective ministry possible leaves persons in clergy relationships open and vulnerable. This predisposes those persons to believe that clergy shall act only in ways that will contribute to their well-being. The only appropriate and acceptable clergy response to the trust and power given to clergy through their role is ministry to the emotional, spiritual and temporal needs of those who come to them for help. A single clergy person may be involved in a romantic relationship within the parameters discussed in the following section. Clergy Sexual Misconduct In Context of Single Clergy Romantic Relationship- A single clergy person engaging in a romantic relationship with a single person with whom he or she has a clergy relationship does not necessarily commit sexual misconduct. The clergy person must be aware of the inherent imbalance of power that he or she has in this type of clergy relationship and take full responsibility for the related potential for harm. A single clergy person entering into this type of relationship bears the burden of demonstrating that there has been no exploitation in the relationship, in light of all relevant factors, including the personal history and mental status of the other person and the likelihood of an adverse impact on the person or on others. A clergy person should refrain from entering into a romantic relationship with a person with whom he or she currently has a pastoral counseling relationship. Should a pastoral counseling need arise for a person with whom the clergy person is romantically involved, that clergy person would make recommendations of two or three choices for pastoral or other professional counselors. Neither shall a single clergy person enter into a romantic relationship with a person whom he or she has had a pastoral counseling relationship for at least two years after cessation or termination of the pastoral counseling (consistent with the American Psychological Association Code of Ethics of 1992). The clergy person who engages in such activity after the two years following cessation or termination of the pastoral counseling relationship bears the burden of demonstration that there has been no exploitation, in light of all relevant factors, including the amount of time that has passed since the pastoral counseling relationship terminated, the nature and duration of the pastoral counseling, the circumstances of termination, the personal history of the counselee and others and any statements or actions made by the clergy person during the course of the pastoral counseling suggesting or inviting the possibility of a post-termination romantic relationship with the counselee. Sexual Abuse: The laws of both the States of Idaho and Oregon contain definitions of SexualAbuse. These legal descriptions constitute the primary definitions of SexualAbuse used in this policy. (See ORS 163 & Idaho Statues 18-1506). In Summary, Sexual Abuse is an actual or attempted sexual invasion of the body by force and without full consent.

Pastoral Counseling - Pastoral counseling is the special dimension of ministry in which a clergy person utilizes a variety of counseling perspectives and techniques to help people handle their problems and crises and thus work toward healing. A pastoral counseling relationship begins at the point that the clergy person and the person or persons seeking pastoral counseling explicitly agree to enter into a relationship wherein is understood that the clergy person shall apply special skills to assist the other person or persons in resolution of problems or crises. NOTE: The above definitions are provided solely for the purpose of thisS exual Ethics Policy. The definitions do not create any chargeable offenses pursuant to The Book of Discipline of The United Methodist Church. This policy does not sanction any conduct, which may constitute a chargeable offense pursuant to The Book of Discipline of The United Methodist Church.

Implementation Of Policy The Oregon/Idaho Annual Conference commits itself to fast and expedient investigation of any charge of sexual misconduct within its churches and acting in compliance with the current Book of Discipline. Responsibility for the implementation of this policy resides jointly with the Office of the Bishop and the Board of Ordained Ministry. This policy shall be available to all Clergy, church employees, and local churches of the Oregon Idaho Annual Conference by annual publication as part of the Oregon Idaho Annual Conference Journal. Workshops/continuing education events reviewing this Clergy Sexual Ethics policy shall be provided annually by the Board of Ordained Ministry. Attending at least one event annually shall be mandatory for all Clergy, church employees and employees of the Annual Conference. Exception may be made by special permission from a District Superintendent. Application for exemption shall be made in writing and shall be kept on file in the Bishop’s office. Attendance shall be considered part of the regular working hours of non-clergy employees and they shall be compensated accordingly. The office of the Bishop, through the District Superintendents, shall provide annual training events in these policies for laity, with particular attention to including Pastor/Staff Relation Committee members from each congregation and members of conference personnel committees. Knowledge or information about clergy sexual misconduct should be reported to a district superintendent or the bishop. When allegations of clergy/ church worker sexual misconduct are made, every attempt 236 Conference Policies shall be made to have two District Superintendents (one male, one female) investigate the matter by meeting first with the accusing party, then with the accused. Where required, further information shall be gathered and a full report then made to the Cabinet. The Bishop and the Cabinet shall make every effort to resolve allegations, complaints or charges in a timely manner and within the requirements of the current Book of Discipline. Further procedural recommendations are found in the appendix of this policy.

Making a Complaint A complaint about any clergy person in violation of this policy may be made to any District Superintendent, or the Bishop. A complaint against a clergy person that involves a child may also need to be reported to the proper authorities, but there are also laws that may prevent disclosure of information obtained during a confidential discussion between a clergy person and another person seeking spiritual guidance from the clergy person. All complaints shall be dealt with promptly and in confidence according to ¶362 of the 2004 Book of Discipline of The United Methodist Church. Persons who report misconduct or file a complaint must not be subject to retaliation. Persons who have knowledge of alleged misconduct are expected to come forward. Persons who knowingly give false information or reports shall be disciplined. All investigations of clergy shall be conducted according to ¶¶2701-2706 of the 2004 Book of Discipline of the United Methodist Church.

CLERGY HOUSING STANDARDS AND POLICY

Responsibility for housing to be used by clergy of the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference. A. The primary responsibility for clergy housing resides with the Administrative Board. One of the responsibilities, as defined by the 1984 Discipline, ¶256.c(f), is the “Review the recommendation of the Pastor-Parish Relations Committee regarding the provision of adequate housing for the pastor(s), with attention to Annual Conference parsonage standards, and report the same to the Charge Conference for approval. It is the responsibility of the Administrative Board ot provide adequate housing for the pastor(s). Housing shall not be considered as part of compensation or remuneration, but shall be considered as a means provided for the local church, and for the convenience of the local church, to enable its ministry and the itinerant ministry of the Annual Conference.” See II below for church-owned parsonage standards, and III below for housing allowance standards. B. The Administrative Board may delegate administrative responsibility for clergy housing to the Pastor-Parish Relations Committee or to a Parsonage Committee. However, it is understood that ultimate responsibility resides with the Administrative Board. C. If a housing allowance is provided in lieu of a parsonage, it shall be reviewed annually prior to the adoption of the clergy salary package for the coming year by the Pastor-Parish Relations Committee. Provision shall be made for an adequate allowance. See III below. D. If a Parsonage Committee is established, membership is to be nominated by the Committee on Nominations and elected by the Charge Conference, or appointed by the Administrative Board. It is suggested that its membership include the following: One trustee selected by the Board of Trustees, one member of the Pastor-Parish Relationsh Committee, three members at large, the minister, the minister’s spouse. This committee, which should inspect the parsonage in April to determine if these housing recommendations are being maintained and refer to the Board of Trustees any recommendation for improvement, should meet at least annually, and should report to the Charge Conference. (Discipline, ¶267.2f, (4)) E. Parsonage recommendations and the definition of an adequate housing allowance (See IIIA) should apply to all ministers under appointment to a local church regardless of marital status or family size. F. If a church or charge does not have a parsonage, and no provision has been made to provide for a housing allowance, the church should either 1. Develop a plan to acquire a suitable parsonage with sufficient funding for the purchase, or Conference Policies 239

2. Provide for an adequate housing allowance for the minister(s). (See IIIA) G. During the annual Charge Conference the District Superintendent may ask if the housing allowance provided by the local church is in compliance with Conference standards. Each local church is to be provided with a copy of the Clergy Housing Standards and Policy.

RECOMMENDATIONS AND POLICY

II. Church-owned Parsonage Recommendations

A. The House 1. Ownership and Privacy. It should be recognized that a minister occupying a church-owned parsonage is in a relationship similar to that of a renter, with the church being understood as the landlord. The Discipline, ¶267.2f(4) says, “The parsonage is to be mutually respected by the pastor’s family as the property of the church and by the church as a place of privacy for the pastor’s family.” 2. Suggested minimum number of rooms: 3 bedrooms, dining area, kitchen, one and one-half (preferably two) baths, with adequate closet space in each, linen storage, garage and/or carport for a minimum of two automobiles, and storage for lawn equipment. 3.

Consideration should be given to providing floor lamps in parsonages that have no overhead lights. 6. Condition: when furnishings and equipment are no longer in good condition with 240 Conference Policies

regard to appearance and usability, then should be removed and replace as soon as practical. Out-of-date items or the discards of others should not be placed in the parsonage. Decisions in this regard should reside with the Parsonage Committee and pastor. 7. Inventory: an up-to-date list of all parsonage furnishings, including dates of purchase, serial numbers, and related data should be kept, with copies to be filed with the Parsonage Committee, church office, and the District Superintendent. C. Care of Property 1.

Clergy are responsible for insuring personal property, including furniture. 2. Repairs: an amount shall be provided in the local church budget for repairs and maintenance of the parsonage. (An amount equivalent to two percent [2%] of the value of the parsonage is recommended. This can be achieved by paying one-twelfth [1/12th] of the yearly amount each month into a special reserve, which should be cumulative.) 3. Interior and exterior painting should be provided as required to keep the house in good condition and appearance. 4. Operating Procedures: a. A formal agreement between the pastor and the church shall be instituted. The agreement shall clarify the expectations of both the church and the pastor with regard to the matters listed in this policy statement. A review upon the arrival of the incoming pastor and two weeks before the departure of the outgoing pastor is in order to conform to the agreement. (see revised sample form below) b. The Pastor-Parish Relations Committee/Parsonage Committee in cooperation with the Board of Trustees shall be responsible for seeing that all necessary work is done to keep the parsonage up to these recommendations. c. An annual review should be made of the agreement, involving the Pastor- Parish Relations Committee/Parsonage Committee and Board of Trustees, with the pastor’s family. d.

Ministers are encourage to live in the parsonage(s) provided by the local church where the parsonage(s) is adequate according to these guidelines. Consultation between the church, District Superintendent, and the pastor should occur if the parsonage is not appropriate. 2. The parsonage is the home of the pastor and family and their rights and privacy should always be respected by members of the congregation. With rights comes responsibilities for the appearance and condition of the parsonage. The minister’s family and the Parsonage Committee should work together to exercise good care of tall parsonage property. (See IIA and IIC4 above.) 3. When the pastor moves, the Pastor-Parish Relations Committee/Parsonage Committee should see that the lights, telephone, and water are left connected. The deposit for public utilities should be provided by the church. 4. If a gift of furniture or furnishings is made, the donor should designate specifically if it is to remain in the parsonage or is a personal gift to the pastor.

III. Housing Allowance Standards

A. An adequate housing allowance may be defined as an amount sufficient to rent a house in the community that would meet the standards of a church-owned parsonage and its furnishings and equipment (as defined by IIB). B. Churches are encourage to be attentive and responsive to the individual needs of minister with regard to housing. C. In the event that a church and its pastor are considering a change from a parsonage to a housing allowance, this is to be done in consultation with the District Superintendent and the District Committee on Church Location and Building. Thorough attention should be given to the advantages and disadvantages of such a change. A church should be prepared, through careful preservation of adequate assets, giving attention to market values and trends, to provide future housing which meet Conference standards. (Discipline, par. 2537 and 2538) D. Where the housing allowance is provided and in order to allow the minister maximum benefits allowed by the Internal Revenue Service, the following guidelines are suggested: 1. For churches reporting to the Charge Conference and the District Superintendent, the amount designated for Housing Allowance should be the amount required to rent a house in the community that would meet the standards for a church-owned parsonage. Other amounts designated for housing allowance may be mutually agreed upon between the pastor and the church with the consent of the District Superintendent. Consideration should be given to costs of maintenance and repair that would otherwise be paid by the church to maintain a parsonage. The housing allowance is in addition to any amount designated for utilities. 2. For Federal Income Tax purposes, it is recommended that the Pastor-Parish Relations Committee make a separate allocation of total compensation including housing allowance as established by the Charge Conference in order to reflect the actual cost of providing a home. This designation should be made in a letter to the pastor in advance of the effective date.

IV. Cabinet Policy Regarding the Sale of Parsonage See Conference Rule 12.062 242 Conference Policies

We also remember with love and gratitude all of the faithful members of our local churches who have died this past year. 244 Memoirs CLERGY:

Stanley E. Andrews May 1, 1920-December 26, 2009 Reverend Stanley Everett Andrews was born on May 1, 1920 in Aurora, Illinois to Burton E. and Nellie (Margaret Tuttle) Andrews. He attended Young and Bardwell grade schools, East Junior High and East Aurora High School, graduating in 1938. He graduated from Aurora College in 1943 and Garrett Biblical Institute in 1946. On June 18, 1946, he married Dorothy Elizabeth Wells in Howes Memorial Chapel on the Garrett campus, with Horace G. Smith, President of the seminary, officiating.

Stan and Dorothy honeymooned on the way to their first pastorate: the Methodist Church in Kimberly, Idaho. His ministerial career continued in Payette, and Meridian; and six years as district superintendent of the Western District in Idaho. Next he moved to Oregon when he was appointed the Associate Pastor at First Methodist Church in Portland. Continuing in Oregon, he served in Coos Bay and Wesley United Methodist Church in Eugene. Returning to Idaho he served the Burley United Methodist Church. While in Burley, Dorothy succumbed to breast cancer in August 1974. Through a friend, Stan met Patsy (Rowland) Kurtright and they were married in 1977, continuing their ministry in Burley. Leaving Burley for the metropolis of Boise, Stan was appointed as Associate Pastor at First United Methodist Church in Boise (The Cathedral of the Rockies). Retirement from appointive ministry came in 1985, leaving him time to volunteer at Veterans Hospital, exercising his strength of pastoral care. Retirement also found him on the golf course with other pastors, parishioners, and friends.

He is survived by his wife of thirty-two years, Patsy; daughters Judy (Ron) Lovell of Coos Bay, Oregon and Ruth (Bob) Andrews-Bryant of Boise, Idaho; stepdaughter Sharon (Mark) Holzrichter of Colorado Springs, Colorado; brother Donald (Char) Andrews of Montgomery, Illinois; eight grandchildren and three great grandchildren; three nieces, and one nephew. He was preceded in death by first wife Dorothy, stepson Daniel Kurtright, and sister Eleanor (Howard) Kneller.

Thomas Richard Fletcher July 10, 1926-October 4, 2009 Reverend Doctor Thomas Richard Fletcher grew up in New Jersey. In 1949 he served in the Greater New Jersey Annual Conference of the Methodist Church. Later he served in Colorado in the Rocky Mountain Annual Conference and completed his ministry in 1990 in the Northwest with the Oregon-Idaho Annual Conference. In 1982 he completed his Ph.D. in Rhetoric and Communications from the University of Oregon.

Tom attended Western Maryland College where he met and married his beautiful wife Rene. They shared more than 61 wonderful years together.

Through Tom’s dedication to God and the United Methodist Church he touched countless lives. He was a scholar and masterful orator. His sermons were filled with theological references, scriptures, stories from his life, from the lives of the people he served and from those he admired.

He was an activist for peace, justice and the environment. Tom inspired us to live with humility, to care for those who have less than we do, and to make the world a better place. The most important thing Tom taught us was to love.

He is deeply missed and abundantly loved. His wife and his three children survive him. Memoirs 245 J. Ross Knotts March 20, 1912-April 26, 2010

The death of J. Ross Knotts on April 26, 2010 prompted a celebration of his life of 98 years. He was born on March 20, 1912, in Junction City, Oregon and lived in Marshfield, Cottage Grove, Grants Pass, Roseburg and The Dalles. He became an honors graduate of Willamette University in Salem and of Drew Theological Seminary in Madison, NJ. From 1937 to 1978 he served as a pastor of United Methodist churches in Oregon at Odell and Pine Grove. In 1943, while pastoring St. Johns Pioneer (Portland), he married Marjorie Cooley Knotts. Together they served as lifetime partners in ministry in Bend, Ashland, Springfield, and Medford. Since 1967 they lived in the Rogue Valley. Following official retirement he continued in ministry at Gold Hill-Upper Rogue and Talent, and was interim at Ashland Congregational Church (UCC).

The Rev. Knotts’ authentic concern for young people blossomed in his leadership of youth programs that encouraged generations to raise families rooted in positive values. He was known for his compassion and leadership in providing human services through the founding of Rogue Valley Manor, CERVS, and Habitat for Humanity. He served prisoners through the Jackson County Jail (planning, pastoral care) and obtained a grant for a medical clinic at Takilma.

His passion for justice encouraged fair treatment and open doors to opportunity for all. His ministry included support for the rights of minorities—Japanese Americans, African Americans, shipyard workers, refugees, homeless persons, families suffering from lumber mill closures, migrants, hippies, gay men and lesbians. He was a lifelong advocate for peace and justice.

As a United Methodist pastor whose larger parish was the Rogue Valley, he provided ministries that saw multiple generations through marriage, birth, death, and life changes. He was known for his abilities as a preacher and teacher, who opened up the meaning of the Bible to many, his work with young people in youth group and camp settings, and his capacity to be hopeful and lead into the future. He is remembered for campfire songs and stories and his love of hymns and music.

Knotts treasured nature and the environment. He grew vegetable gardens, explored back roads and hiked trails all over southern Oregon, at times knowing where to find lost hikers. He climbed mountains and, at age 88, set a record for sliding over the falls near Camp Latgawa.

Knotts is survived by his wife of 67 years, Marjorie Cooley Knotts of Medford; son Joe Knotts and granddaughter Tessa Edwards Knotts of La Grande; daughter Alice Knotts of San Diego, granddaughter Laura and spouse Shawn Bowman, great grandchildren Andrew Joseph and Ellie Grace Bowman of Salem; Kazuko Sacon of Tokyo and Joshua, Tom, Elijah, and Rebekah. 246 Memoirs Gertrude Sorlien December 9, 1907-October 2, 2009

The Reverend Gertrude Sorlien was born on December 9, 1907. She was nearly a hundred and two years old when she passed away on October 2, 2009. She began her ministry in the Pacific Northwest Conference in 1943. Gertrude married Reverend J. Palmer Sorlien in 1955. They were married for fourteen years before he passed away in 1969.

Before 1956, Gertrude was barred from full membership in the Annual Conference due to her gender. However, she still completed years of education to prepare herself for effective ministry. In 1956, the General Conference voted for women to have full conference membership. Although Gertrude asked to be accepted as a full conference member, she was told that conferences could not accept a clergy couple. Therefore she served with her husband for the next two years. In 1958 she was appointed to serve in Gardiner, Oregon. After the death of her husband, she was appointed to serve Yoncalla United Methodist Church. She was then appointed to Wallowa and Joseph as an Associate Member of the conference. At the 1975 session of the Oregon-Idaho United Methodist Conference, Rev. Gertrude Sorlien was granted full membership in the conference and retired as a full member.

Rev. Sorlien is survived by children Glen Dealy, Paul Dealy, and Ross Dealy; eleven grandchildren and nineteen great grandchildren.

John A. Wallace December 13, 1919-August 21, 2009

The Reverend John A. Wallace (Jack) was born in Bridgeton, New Jersey on December 13, 1919. He attended Temple University and received a B.S. in Education in 1946 and the S.T.B. in 1949. He served in the New Jersey Conference where he was successful in establishing a program of Visitation Evangelism and trained and guided several groups of visitors. He served on several Conference Boards and committees. After the death of his first wife, his daughter suggested Dot (a widow in his church) would make a good pastor’s wife. They were married in 1966 and moved to Iowa. Their ministry there included the merging of two churches with a total of 1,800 members. He directed the structuring of a new church, a building program, and the buying and selling of all the properties of the two former churches.

Because the climate in Iowa was hard on both of them he took a sabbatical and moved to Lakeland in 1973. He became first a Parole and Probation Officer and then a Corrections Counselor. He established GED, drug counseling, alcohol awareness, religious programs, libraries, recreation programs, etc., in both the stockade and the jail.

In 1979 he was appointed to First United Methodist in Twin Falls, Idaho, first as an Associate and then as Senior Pastor. After four years in Twin Falls, he asked for a church in the Portland area so Dot could finish her college work. He retired in June 1986 and moved back to Florida.They built a home in Vero Beach. At the time he said, “For us this is a dream come true. We had often visited Vero Beach and felt it would be a wonderful place to spend our years of retirement. It has been our prayer that we could find a church where we could make a real contribution of Christian ministry during these years.” Reverend Wallace served as a new Director of Caring Ministries in Vero Beach for many years.

Olive Grace Bayly, Mother, Grandmother, and Great-Grandmother passed peacefully on June 3, 2009.

Olive was born to James and Janet Miller along with her twin brother George on December 17, 1921 in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada. She weighed two-plus pounds and was a medical miracle at that time. Her devoted mother fed her by dripping milk from a teaspoon into her mouth and keeping her on her bosom for warmth. She thrived and even survived diphtheria as a young girl. Her days growing up in Edmonton with her eight siblings were memorable times. That is where she met her handsome husband, Edwin C. Bayly. They married and served together in various churches. Edwin pastored throughout Alberta, Saskatchewan, Washington, Oregon, and Idaho. Olive was a vital support whether it was in Christian education, directing choir, dramas, visitation or entertaining. She was famous for her hot tea and enormous cinnamon rolls which cheered many hearts. Upon their retirement, they traveled in their motor home. When those days were over, Olive spent time volunteering in the schools reading with first graders. She loved children, chocolate, roses and anything pink.

Olive and Edwin were blessed with sixty years of marriage before Ed died in January 2004. Olive never quite recovered from losing her soul-mate first to Alzheimer’s and then to death. Olive was nicknamed the “Energizer Bunny” because she overcame so many medical odds and kept bouncing back. Family members say they were fortunate to “have her back” for many months before she said she was ready to go to heaven. Olive was playing Bingo with two cards and anxious to win the prize the day before she died.

Olive and Edwin are survived by eight children: Ruth Bayly Mead, Dr. Kennety Bayly, Don Bayly, Linda Sue Trickey, Jan Madison, Irene Bayly-Gayman, Jim Bayly, and Carolyn Mozel; 19 grandchildren and eleven great-grandchildren. Their message: “Thank you, Mum and Dad, for your example of faith, love, and commitment to each other and to your children.”

Loma Ruth Haines February 5, 1915-April 12, 2010

Loma Ruth Haines was born to missionaries on February 5, 1915 as Loma Ruth Housley. She passed away on April 12, 2010 in Springfield, Oregon.

Loma was the widow of the late Rev. J. Harry Haines, a member of the Oregon-Idaho Conference. The Haines were married for sixty-three years before Rev. Haines passed away in 2007. The Haines served with the General Board of Global Ministries for over twenty-one years before Rev. Haines retired in 1984.

Loma was preceded in death by two sons. The surviving sons are Dr. John Haines of Eugene and David Haines of San Francisco. 248 Memoirs Maxine L. Ohling July 25, 1927-May 2, 2010

Born July 25, 1927 to James Ertis and Mary Bessie (Mathews) Larkin, Maxine once said that her Mama was playing for Sunday evening service at the Alpine Methodist Church when the water broke, and if she’d only been a few hours earlier, she would have been born on the piano stool. Instead, there was time to finish the service, send someone for the midwife, and return to the farmhouse outside Alpine before she was born.

Maxine graduated from high school in Monroe. In 1945 she was accepted into the Samaritan School of Nursing in Nampa, Idaho, which was affiliated with Northwest Nazarene College (NNC). She graduated in 1948 with both a Nursing School Diploma from Samaritan, and a BSN from NNC. Next stop was Portland and Cascade College where she spent another two years getting a BA in Christian Education.

Maxine moved back to Eugene, near her hometown of Alpine, where she worked as office nurse for pediatrician Margaret Tingle. Maxine left her job to get married to Ralph D. Ohling in March of 1955. Dr. Tingle gave them the “usual parting gift” of free doctor care for any offspring.

Ralph had been appointed to his first charge in 1951 at the McFarland and Alpine churches. Maxine was a pianist and Sunday school superintendent at her home church in Alpine. Timothy Ralph was born in February of 1956. At that time they were serving the Methodist Church in LaGrande. In 1962 the family of three moved to West Linn and then in 1963, Ralph was appointed to Rainier. While there, the couple started working on adoption and in 1966 brought home two daughters: Deborah Maxine and Rebekah Mary.

In 1983 Maxine became a grandma for the very first time. In 1986, Maxine and Ralph moved to Gold Hill and Rogue Valley where they pastored the two churches. While living in Gold Hill Maxine was challenged more than she ever had been. After being diagnosed with breast cancer she underwent a radical mastectomy. She received treatment and while her faith in God remained steadfast as ever she was completely healed and cancer free.

In 1987 Ralph retired from the ministry and the couple moved to Salem to be closer to their beloved granddaughter and family. While Ralph remained retired, Maxine went back to work as the secretary for Salem Evangelical Church where the couple attended church regularly. Maxine also played the organ for the evening services.

In 1993 the couple moved to Newberg and joined the Friends church where they attended regularly. On March 15, 2006 Maxine’s dear husband of almost 51 years went home to be with the Lord. After Ralph’s death, Maxine continued to decline and broke both hips, one right after the other. The doctors had little hope of Maxine’s recovery due to a three day coma, but God miraculously brought her out of it. After going home and months of therapy she still was steadily declining.

On May 1, 2010 Maxine fell and was taken to Emergency where they treated her and she said her goodbyes to her family as she knew she was going to go home with her lord and savior whom she served so faithfully for so many years. After returning home, Maxine, with family by her side, peacefully slipped away to be with her father in heaven where she so dearly wanted to be. Memoirs 249 Carol Shay July 3, 1931-August 13, 2009

Carol Elizabeth arrived on July 3, 1931 in Hawthorne, New Jersey just in time to usher in the nation’s birthday on July 4, their birthdays to be celebrated together ever after. Throughout her childhood she enjoyed participating in church youth activities, Girl Scouts, and family trips to the Atlantic shore with her parents Henry & Paula Buseman and older siblings Dick and Evelyn.

Eventually Carol enrolled in Hope College in Holland, MI. While she was there, a dreamboat in navy uniform sailed onto campus. Guess who. She graduated with a degree in religious education on June 3, 1953. Three months later on September 29, 1953 she and Mervyn (Mike) were married.

They came out west on the Oregon Trail (then Highway 30, now Interstate 84) in August of 1954. Mervyn had accepted an appointment to the Vale Methodist Church, where they started their ministry in the Oregon Territory. It was a joint ministry. Although Mervyn was the ordained member of this duo, Carol was fully engaged in sharing the love of Jesus.

1954 was a very good year. After they traveled across the country in an old 50’s something car with no A/C in the middle of hot, dusty, sage brush riddled August, daughter Kathryn, was born on September 21. Whew! Two more children followed, Nathan & Jeremy. This was the beginning of her effort to re-populate the Shay Family (Mike was an only child). What a beginning it was with grandchildren as well – Matt, Andy, John, Ann, Kenny, and Cory. She also engaged the family in caring for several foster children throughout the years.

One of Kathryn’s fondest memories of her mother was weekly house cleaning on Saturday mornings. Carol played the Texaco broadcast of the New York Metropolitan Opera. She often related her experience of attending the Met in the standing room only section. This exposed Kathryn to this particular art form and it was also a time for Carol to reconnect with her east coast roots. At times, “out west” must have still seemed somewhat savage, what with wrangling with bears and poison oak and such. Kathryn enjoys opera to this day.

“They” retired to Fruitland, ID in 1986. Retired was not in Carol’s vocabulary. She played piano for various churches (not always Methodist), sang in the choir, and contributed her talents to United Methodist Women and Church Women United (she served a term as president). She enjoyed gardening, concerts at Treasure Valley Community College, Fruitland High School football games, and participating in Payette Seniors.

Even when ill, there were always opportunities for quality time. The family went to see the film “Up” not long before she died. Her indomitable spirit connected with this film’s portrayal of joy, wonderment and intrigue.

Carol died on August 13, 2009. The family all selected mementos, but perhaps Kenny chose the best – a ceramic that hung on her wall everywhere she went with this scripture: “In quietness and in confidence shall be my strength” - Isaiah 30:15. 250 Memoirs OUR HONORED DEAD Walter W.

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 Historical 257

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 258 Historical 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- Historical 259

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.

A year ago I reported that 2008 was a year of transition. Well, change has become a way of life, as expressed in the theme for this year’s annual conference session.

The past year was another challenging one, particularly in light of the economy. I know it has been challenging, and I am grateful to all of you for your support (sometimes sacrificial) of our Shared Ministry. The people and teams responsible for controlling spending are to be commended for their frugality, as is our Council on Finance and Administration for its continuing diligence in its work.

In our office we continue to grow in our services in support of local church ministry, providing tools to help congregations do their vital work. We continue to publish “Grace and Gratitude” on a weekly basis as well as consulting with local churches a providing leadership for annual fund programs. We recently launched an experimental program to assist churches in their annual audit by training audit teams which will trade auditing services with one another. I continue to be blessed with opportunities to be present in local congregations for a variety of reasons.

Let’s take a look at some of the statistics for 2009.

The Local Church Year-End Reports for 2009 show that the grand total spent by the local churches of our Conference was $31,718,406. This is a decrease of about $4,607,065 or 12.7% from 2008.

Local congregations decreased their budgeted expenditures by $3,848,152 or 12.31% from 2008. This includes decreases in staff expenses (1.27%), current operating expenses (7.54%), current program expenses (6.29%) and capital spending for debt reduction, building construction, and improvements (43.8%). Clergy support expenses increased 1.20%.

Receipts processed through our office from local congregations totaled $6,675,238, a 2.6% decrease from 2008. The decrease was due largely to lower receipts in our shared ministry apportionment support. Receipts on our shared ministry apportionments were 75.52% of the total amount apportioned to the local congregations compared to 76.56% in 2008. Shared ministry apportionments provide the core financial resources for the operational and legally required financial obligation thatwe (each local congregation) share collectively as part of the Oregon-Idaho Conference. Support for all shared ministry categories decreased 1.36% from their 2008 support. Support for the three continuing askings decreased 18.7%.

The special giving category (also known as Second Mile Missional giving) decreased $117,876 or 29.4% from the previous year. This category includes all General, Conference, and World Service Specials, all special Sunday offerings, district church extension society receipts and other non-budget receipts.

You will notice that our 2011 Budget has a different look than it has in prior years. Notably, the budget is presented as only one fund, rather than the six we have been accustomed to, and is broken in to categories that we hope better reflect the new way we are doing our work. Additionally, the Camp and Retreat Ministry Budget item has not been included in the general operating budget, although we still claim Camp and Retreat Ministry as a vital part of our mission.

In terms of anticipated expenditures for 2011, the budget reflects our priority of supporting local congregations, especially through the work of the Assistants to the Bishop. It also reflects a de-emphasis on programming at the conference level, and the inclusion of both Campus Ministry and Hispanic Ministry askings rather as apportioned amounts.

In our health insurance plan (HealthFlex), our 2009 loss ratio for the active plan decreased from 120.3% to 116.4% and was significantly higher than the overall HealthFlex ratio for active plans. For the Medicare Companion plan, the loss ratio decreased from 92.2% to 89.82% which remains significantly lower than the overall HealthFlex ratio for retired plans. In 2009 we had 6 large claims (claims over $50,000) totaling $876,122 representing 46.8% of our medical claims in the active plan. Budget Summary & Report 325

For 2011, the Board of Pensions is proposing changes in plan design that shift more cost to the participant in order to maintain the active plan premium at its 2010 level and hold the premium for the retired plan to a 1.7% increase. The total estimated premium for our 2011 HealthFlex Plan is $3,170,000. $1,837,700 is for the active plan and includes some administrative costs and funding for future retiree health care costs. If the recommended plan changes are approved, the monthly cost of the active plan will remain at $1,200.00 for each clergy participant. This is billed to the local congregations served by our clergy participants. The premium costs for Assistants to the Bishop and conference staff are included in the apportionments to the local churches as is the subsidy amount for our retiree plan and totals approximately $900,000.

On a personal note, this has not been the easiest of times to hold this position, but as I’ve been involved in conversations about the role of the annual conference in the future, I am convinced that this is the most important conversation going on in the denomination. It’s a privilege to work with the leadership of this conference, paid and unpaid, who are faithfully seeking to discern God’s vision.

I find myself giving thanks on a daily basis for the team of people with whom I work most closely. The significant gifts and faithful ministry of Sandra Sittser, Nina Smith, and Jerryn Johnston are incredible assets to this conference both professionally and personally.

God continues to provide us with the resources we need to accomplish the work God has given us to do. I look forward to continuing our work together in fulfilling our shared vision of healthy, vital congregations making disciples and transforming the world.

INTRODUCTORY NOTES

The 2011 Budget is 10.4% lower than the 2010 Budget. It also looks significantly different than the budgets we are accustomed to seeing in recent years. These changes seek to align the Budget with our vision and the priorities established by conference leadership.

The Budget looks different in a number of ways: • It is not broken down into six sections as has been true in the past. We refer to the new format as a unified budget. It will be apportioned to the churches as one single apportionment.You will no longer need to ask “Which one should we pay?” It reflects a value that all parts of the budget are important. • The line items are grouped differently. We hope this will be more helpful in understanding where the money goes. • Most of the apportionment funding for program ministries is gone. Two of these program ministries (Campus Ministry and Hispanic Ministry) have been moved to the section on Non- Budget Askings. Although each congregation will receive a suggested fair-share asking for each of these items, we anticipate that some congregations will feel a stronger commitment to these ministries and exceed that suggested support. • The Budget reflects the ways in which the attention of the annual conference is being refocused on growing healthy, vital congregations. 326 Budget Summary & Report

In keeping with past practice, the Council is not presenting a spending plan for adoption by the Annual Conference. Instead, we have asked that the Council in consultation with the Bishop, the Assistant to the Bishop for Transition,and the Director of Stewardship and Finance be given permission to develop a plan based on revenue and cost data gathered through 2010. You will find the request in the Annual Recommendations (item #1).

The 2009 Operating Report is presented later in the material. You will note that our apportionment income was lower than our expenditures, even though our expenses were in line with the budget. This shortfall in Shared Ministries required us to use designated reserve funds for several categories as well as the General Fund reserve. A rebound in the stock market helped offset the catastrophic declines we saw in our reserve funds in 2008. The Council on Finance and Administration continues to monitor carefully all of our reserve funds. Please refer to the CF&A Report to the Annual Conference.

Health Insurance The 2011 rate increase for our current health insurance program amounted to 8.0% for our Active Plan and 7.1% for our Medicare Companion Plan. In order to reduce these increases the Board of Pensions has proposed changes to the health insurance plans (AR#23 and AR#25). Adoption of these action requests will result in no increase in the blended rate for active participants and an average 1.7% increase in premiums for those on the Medicare Companion Plan.

If AR#25 is adopted the estimated 2011 monthly billed amount for clergy appointed to the local church will remain at $1,200 per month. The $1200 per month premium reflects the changes noted above as well as some subsidy from the Health Insurance Endowment Fund. The Board of Pensions chose to use reserve funds for 2011 in response to the current financial strains on congregational finances.

General and Jurisdictional Conference Apportionments The basis for all General Conference Apportionments is a formula approved by the General Conference each quadrennium. Apportionments from the General Conference must be included in the budgets of each annual conference without reduction (¶614.1(b), ¶614.3(d) & ¶615.1, 2008 Discipline.) The aggregate change in the seven General Church Apportionments for 2011 is -0.54%.

The Jurisdictional Conference Apportionments will increase by 8.1% for 2011.
