and
OFFICIAL RECORD
One Hundred Fifty-Sixth Session
Held at
IOWA STATE CENTER
Ames, Iowa
June 4-7, 1999 PURPOSE
In Genesis, Chapters 1 to 5, God is revealed as Creator and Sustainer of the Universe. Jesus said, "The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He has anointed me to preach the Good News to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord." Paul said, "You are the Body of Christ."
These Biblical directives mandate a concern for the physical, spiritual, and mental wholeness of each person and all people and the environment in which they live. Humankind as co-creator has been given responsibility for the constructive use of all that is and will be. The Church is the community of all true believers under the Lordship of Christ. It is one holy, apostolic, and catholic. It is the redemptive fellowship in which the Word of God is preached by persons divinely called; and, the sacraments are duly administered according to Christ's own appointment. Under the discipline of the Holy Spirit, the Church exists to provide an avenue for worship, an evangelistic spirit for the redemption of the world, and, the edification of believers through education and a social consciousness.
The United Methodist Church is to be a part of the body of Christ proclaiming God as Creator, Sustainer and Redeemer as revealed in scripture in the person of Jesus Christ extending the love, grace and power of God in the world. It requires a denominational and ecumenical strategy for action in the universe.
MISSION STATEMENT
The mission of the Iowa Annual Conference is to develop leaders who proclaim the gospel and transform the world...so that every Iowa United Methodist congregation and faith community can fulfill its mission through its primary task of making disciples.

2. Board of Trustees The Board of Trustees is composed of three standing committees; namely, Insurance, District Parsonages and Leased Offices, and Property Management and Maintenance. The Insurance Subcommittee has continued its work on a proposed conference-wide insurance program that would provide property, casualty and liability insurance on a conference-wide basis 50 IOWA CONFERENCE - 1999
to both local churches and the conference. Such insurance coverage would be available to local churches on a totally voluntary basis. The committee has compiled information from local churches within our conference and has prepared proposed legislation for the current session of annual conference. The District Parsonage and Leased Office Subcommittee has continued to work on the replacement of district parsonages. The Council Bluffs district parsonage was replaced in 1998. The committee has also continued to work with districts in moving district offices out of the district parsonages into commercial office space. The Council Bluffs, Waterloo and Spencer offices were authorized to secure commercial office space in 1998. The Property Maintenance and Management Subcommittee has been working with the Board of Camps in updating camp inventories, upgrading computer connections from the Conference Center to district offices and upgrading copiers and other office equipment at the Conference Center. The subcommittee has dealt with a number of abandoned church properties and property transfers. The Board of Trustees have granted a number of Priscilla Fund requests.

4. Commission on Equitable Compensation No report received.
5. Committee on Pastoral Care and Counseling The primary responsibility of the committee is administrative oversight of the Office of Pastoral and Counseling, of which Dr. Larry W. Sonner is the Director. The committee evaluates the director’s performance each year, and its most recent evaluation reaffirmed that Dr. Sonner has functioned extremely well in meeting the needs of the ministry professionals in the Conference during the 26 years he has served in this capacity. Each year the committee reassesses the amount of time the director spends in each area of his work. Again this year, they reaffirmed Dr. Sonner’s spending 75-80% of his time providing counseling for ministry professionals and their immediate families, and 20-25% in education in the areas of pastoral care and counseling. Dr. Sonner has announced his intention to retire in 2000. A task force was appointed in 1998, to do the preliminary work for establishing a procedure for a search for a new Director. A search committee has met and sub-committees have been organized to revise the job description; handle publicity and advertising for the position; draft an application form and interview the candidates; and arrange for travel and hospitality for the candidates and the director who is selected. The committee expects to have a new director in place by July 1, 2000.

6. Journal Publication Committee The Journal Publication Committee was not as active this year as in the past. The Conference Journal was printed by a different printer this year to keep costs as low as possible. Also, there was some investigation into producing the Conference Journal on CD-ROM as an option for those receiving the Journal. As always, the committee strives for accuracy in all that is reported on the life of the Annual Conference.

2. Board of Camps and Extended Ministries Implementation of the Master Plan completed last year has been at the center of our work this year. We began immediately after Annual Conference to seek nominations from around the conference and put together our task force to develop a finance and marketing plan for the implementation of the Master Plan to be presented to the Council on Finance and Administration for approval and recommendation to the Annual Conference for final approval. We are extremely pleased with the caliber and quality of persons who are serving on this task force. As they have worked on a finance and marketing plan, it has become evident that there will need to be more time and study done before attempting a capital campaign of such magnitude. Along with the work of the task force we have made significant progress in reducing deficits at our five camp & retreat sites. We are pleased to report that every site finished 1998 with an operational profit. No site was in deficit for 1998! Thanks to good site financial management and improved response of churches paying apportionments and their commitments for campers, the long term deficit of the Board of Camps and Extended Ministries (BOCEM) was reduced by more than $32,000 in 1998. The BOCEM made provision for every site to have at least a part-time office person to improve record-keeping and accounting. The BOCEM began the process of updating our policies and procedures to clarify and improve everyone’s understanding of responsibilities. The task force has identified and begun addressing the need to improve our marketing efforts. Our camp catalog of 336 events continues to be our most widely used and effective promotion tool for registering persons for camp & retreat events. The task force has also begun organizing a series of “grow the dream” sessions around the conference to receive input and increase the interest in the vision for changing lives through camps & retreats which comes from our Master Plan. We continue to share the vision of the Master Plan at our Annual Conference display and at the Youth Annual Conference at Simpson College as a way of informing persons about the opportunities for camping and retreats at our five sites and our off-site events through Christian Ventures. Local church camp promotions are still the primary contact for many persons to learn about and sign up for a camp or retreat event. a. Program Committee, Board of Camps and Extended Ministries - Sharon Betsworth, Chair Exciting and diverse programs continue to be offered at our five conference camp sites and through Christian Ventures, an off-site trip oriented, multi-generational ministry of the Board of Camps and Extended Ministries. The Program Committee of the Board of Camps seeks to keep programming before the BOCEM and the whole conference as the heart of our camping ministry. We guide the sites in their programming plans as together we implement the early phases of the Master Plan. Part of our Master Plan includes helping each site develop their ministry “niche.” Together, we strive to initiate and develop new, cutting edge programs for the future, keeping our camps moving forward into the 21st Century. b. Leadership Development Committee, Board of Camps and Extended Ministries - Jackie Cordon, Aldersgate Camp Leadership Development provided a state-wide volunteer event director training prior to the 1998 camping season. Worship, music, workshops and speakers all contributed to an inspiring and educating weekend at Wesley Woods. Trainings for adult and junior counselors were also held at each campsite in the spring. Volunteer counselors were trained in all areas of the camp program including faith development, program activities, emergency procedures and abuse issues. Prior to the summer season, campsite staff were trained in all the above areas. Additional training was given in such areas as First Aid/CPR, vehicle safety, Bible Studies, canoeing, swimming and other aquatic activities, crafts, camper discipline, leadership development and challenge activities. The National Camp Leaders Meeting was attended by over 30 Iowa camp leaders in January of 1999.
Jerry Miller, Chairperson 58 IOWA CONFERENCE - 1999
3. Board of Church and Society The Board of Church and Society’s primary task is to call local churches, individuals, the annual conference to witness to Jesus Christ in active social justice ministries. The board consists of a representative from each district; a three person executive committee, the Legislative Advocate; a United Methodist Women’s representative, one CCOM associate director; and Merlin Ackerson, jurisdictional member of the General Board of Church and Society. Three task forces and three committees are presently doing work in association with the Board: Legislative Advocacy chaired by Sue Mullins, Biblical Basis for Social Justice Ministries chaired by Tom Mohan, Latin American Task Force chaired by Robert Notman-Cook, Restorative Justice Task Force chaired by BeJe Clark, Resolutions chaired by Dave Shogren, and Affordable Housing and Homelessness Task Force chaired by H.D. Mitchell. The highest priority of the board is legislative advocacy. Legislative Lobbyist Carlos Jayne advocates the official Iowa Annual Conference positions relative to matters before the Iowa General Assembly and the U.S. Congress; maintains a clearly identifiable and continuing presence at the State Capitol, and communicates with United Methodists concerning legislative issues including developing and working with a legislative network. The “Biblical Basis for Social Justice Ministries Project” will help Iowa United Methodists articulate their biblical faith on issues of social justice and put their faith into action. The goal is to develop bi-district leadership who will assist local churches to renew and revitalize their congregations through Bible-centered, community ministries. Reverend Jerry Avise-Rouse will do the training using the Renewing Rural Iowa Bible Studies developed by Reverend Gil Dawes. The Latin American Task Force (LATF) grew out of the work of the long-standing Central American Task Force. The LATF continues faith-based solidarity work for justice with a larger view. The Restorative Justice Advocacy work is done by a steering committee chaired by BeJe Clark and consisting of people who are active with child and family polices, the juvenile justice system, peace work, churches and others. They are working to introduce and implement restorative justice programs especially for juveniles throughout Iowa. The board gives leadership in developing resolutions pertaining to justice issues for the Conference. Building on our social principles, individuals and local churches are encouraged to submit resolutions for odd-year annual conference sessions. (See Rules of Order, Article XII. I. in the IACJ). The Task Force for Homeless People works with local churches to help people become better informed and educated about the issues of homelessness. The task force encouraged districts and local churches to undertake projects which advocate eliminating the causes of homelessness and to develop models of ministry to homeless people. The task force considers state and federal legislation concerning homelessness, provides incentive funds for seed money for local church homeless ministries and advocacy, provides biblical and theological foundations for this work, communicates with bi-district staff and displays successful models, and provides materials for churches to do Housing Sabbath worship services to raise awareness.
Marsha Acord, Chairperson
4. Board of Discipleship The Board of Discipleship has attempted to respond by listening to the local churches. As a result of our intentional listening, we have totally changed the financial structure of our board. We heard the local churches saying that some of the programs developed through Board of Discipleship were not always meeting the needs of the local churches. We heard local churches saying they did not need ideas about ministry but needed a way to get new programs up and running. Local churches seemed to have enough of their own ideas. There seemed to be a more focused need for funding new programs. In 1998, the Board of Discipleship pooled its budget dollars into a new program called “Funding for Ministry.” The idea was to have local churches submit grant applications to fund their own ministry ideas. We think the response of applications is an indication that we are on track with this concept. When the September 1st deadline arrived we had received eighteen grant applications totaling well over $100,000 in requests. The sad part is that we had funding for less than a third of INFORMATION REPORTS 59 the dollars requested. The approved grants went to: 1) Wesley United Methodist Church in Ottumwa to partially fund a “Youth Evangelism Team.” 2) Eldora United Methodist Church in Eldora to partially fund an outreach program linking the church youth group with troubled youth in Quakerdale an Iowa State Training School. 3) Guttenberg United Methodist Church to partially fund a seminar on prayer and create a prayer structure in the city of Dubuque that will pray daily for the needs of children. 4) Milo-Green Plain-Liberty Center Churches for “Village Midweek.” This is an after school program for children, preschool through 6th grade. 5) Whitfield United Methodist Church in Sioux City for an after school program for children, kindergarten through fifth grade who are at risk. 6) Grace United Methodist Church in Sioux city for a daycare program that is part of a weekly support program for families in poverty. Will you pray for these new ministries funded in part by Board of Discipleship “Grants for Ministry”? We hope to be able to report on successes and learning experiences. Hopefully, we all can gain knowledge through these programs. Fred Pilecki, Chairperson
5. Board of Global Ministries Moving through 1998 and into 1999, your Conference Board of Global Ministries (BOGM) has continued its oversight and administration of a broad array of outreach ministries on behalf of all the local congregations in Iowa. Viewing all our local congregations as mission stations we have had our main focus on encouraging the development of new ministries based in our Iowa congregations. Our Community and Institutional Ministries and Parish Development Standing Committees have coordinated supportive funding for eight Shalom initiatives and 15 new children’s ministries. In addition, there are 14 community-based outreach ministries and eight health ministries. Ten of our new congregations are receiving support which includes not only Church Extension but also funds from Builders’ Calls and special funds available to Parish Development. Nineteen additional congregations are receiving assistance in extending their ministry. Under the leadership of Edwin McIntosh and Scott Lothe these committees have met diligently and have carefully considered many needs. Our Mission Education Committee under the leadership of Conference Mission Secretary, Judy Brotherton and Mission Itineration Secretary, Lois Novak have developed new guidelines for Advance Specials and have issued a new “Rainbow Covenant” book. Don and Ruth Shaw continue working with our Volunteers In Mission program. Susan Ryon our Disaster Response Coordinator has interfaced our work with the Iowa Inter-Faith Disaster Recovery Network, District Coordinators and the United Methodist Committee on Relief (U.M.C.O.R.). Our new World Hunger Coordinator, Doris Knight, has guided our advocacy in this direction and Beverly Nolte has continued her diligent work with the Iowa Nigeria Partnership. Ken Bell has carefully worked with those applying for Bequest Funds and made recommendations to the board. Our district superintendents have administered the Neighbor Helping Neighbor Fund coordinated by Wally Paige. It is anticipated there will be larger calls on these funds with the changing situation in our rural economy. Our special thanks to Hugh Stone who as our Financial Secretary has kept track of our applications and fund balances and attended numerous meetings of the Board, Executive Committee, Parish Development and Community and Institutional Ministries standing committees. Thanks also to Janet Jones who completes her term as our board secretary. Your board and standing committees look forward to building a stronger connection between all of us as we seek to reach out to make disciples and nurture others in the name of Jesus Christ.

7. Board of Laity These are exciting times for the Board of Laity as we watch the growth of the School for Lay Ministry. Graduates of the first school were recognized at the 1997 Annual Conference. Second school graduates will be presented at the 1999 Annual Conference; the third school began in November 1998. Plans at this point are to begin a new school each November. Quite an ambitious undertaking but we have faith this is the direction we should be moving. Phil Carver has been serving as interim Dean while the search for a permanent Dean is taking place. He has been ably assisted in that task by Sheryl Deskin of the Conference. Our special thanks to both of them for their commitment and for a job well done. Thanks also to those who have served as faculty for the quarterly classes. Avon Crawford as Registrar and Scott Butler as Chair of the Commission (Board of Directors) complete the team. The Conference Director of the Lay Speaking Ministry program, Christine Pauley, has developed a newsletter for more direct communication with district directors and lay speakers across the conference. We rejoice in those certified in Lay Speaking Ministries and in their service in a variety of arenas. Funds are available for grants/scholarships for continuing education for laity. The application form has been revised, and we urge lay persons who seek further training in the many avenues of lay ministry to submit their requests. Each year we see a little progress in the area of clergy/laity partnership/mutuality in ministry. We are moving into dialogue with the Cabinet to see where we, the laity, can be of service as part of a team. This, of course, has great potential for the local church from which the strength of the Iowa Annual Conferences comes. We, as the Board of Laity, are committed to inspire and validate the ministry of the laity; to develop conference, district, and local leadership; to train, nurture, and enable laity to make disciples for Christ. May it be so!

8. Board of Ordained Ministry The Board of Ordained Ministry (BOM) enlists persons for ordained ministry, mentors these persons in their educational process, examines them as to their fitness for ministry, and recommends them to the clergy session for membership in the Annual Conference. The BOM also interviews and recommends persons seeking changes in their relationship to the Annual Conference. BOM interview teams continue to uphold the high standards for ministry in the Iowa Conference. The division of elders, under the leadership of Rosemary Rhode-Frank, continues to refine the process that leads to ordination. Video tapes of sermons are now required. We are hoping to do some interviews in the candidate’s local church. The BOM is considering a change in the way psychological assessment is done. We will probably adopt a two-step process in which personality traits are assessed at the candidacy level and leadership traits at the level of probationary membership. Julie Nosek was elected as chair of the Division of Deacons. She replaces Mona Walker. The Division of Deacons examines candidates for deacon and provides support for diaconal ministers and certified personnel. The BOM, through its recruitment and enlistment task force, helped to send several persons to “Exploration 1998.” Recruiting persons for ministry will be crucial in the years ahead. The BOM will encourage all churches to observe a ministry Sunday in 1999, and try to help congregations understand what they can do to assist person’s in answering God’s call to ministry. The BOM has relaxed the financial guidelines for continuing education funds in an effort to encourage more persons to apply. This year the BOM has also greatly increased its financial support for seminary students and for students in the Course of Study.

9. Commission on Archives and History We continue to meet twice a year as a Commission, meeting every third time at the Archives located in Chadwick Library, Iowa Wesleyan College, Mt. Pleasant, Iowa. Our most significant work centers around the historical records of local churches and United Methodism and its predecessor bodies in Iowa. These are located in the Archives collection at Iowa Wesleyan College. Esther Wonderlich, our Archivist, continues to do a superb job with limited equipment and resources. She continues to process historical information as it becomes available and also process many requests for information. We continue to find it necessary to charge requesting individuals or groups for research time spent by her. There are still a number of churches in Iowa who have little or no information in the Archives. We continue to be involved with the Oral History project of recording conversations with past and present leaders in our churches and conference. During this past year, with the help of the Administrative Services of our Conference, the Archives office has become computerized. This provides linkage with the General Church Archives as well as other sources. The office is open Monday through Friday from 1-3 p.m. Telephone is: 319-385-6321. The email address is: [email protected] . Mailing address is: Iowa United Methodist Conference Archives, Iowa Wesleyan College, Chadwick Library, 601 N. Main St., Mt. Pleasant, IA 52641. Our commission is scheduled to host the North Central Jurisdictional Archives and History Convocation, July 10-13, 2000. We are in the process of developing the program for that event and plan to hold it at Iowa Wesleyan College. We provide an annual display at the Annual Conference Session, with a few for sale resources, but many more available for free or for a free-will donation. Until our supply is exhausted, we will continue to give copies of the book Between the Rivers by John Nye, to those being ordained who have not yet received one.
Donald D. Frank, Chairperson
10. Commission on Christian Unity and Interreligious Concerns Our commission continues to interpret, advocate, and work for the unity of the Christian Church and to encourage dialogue and cooperation with persons of other living faiths, as is our primary task. We work for unity of Christians on the Conference level through Ecumenical Ministries of Iowa (EMI) and 99.6% of our commission’s funds is used to support EMI. Bishop Jordan, our judicatory leader, and Nan Allen are members of the EMI Board of Directors. Reverend Ed Poston and Twila Glenn are on the Unity Commission and Reverend Everett Laning and Sue Mullins are on the Justice Commission. The commission made worship resources available to United Methodist Churches who are sharing ministry with Churches of Christ Uniting (COCU) in their local community. We had a display at Annual Conference which provided information on the national and international ecumenical bodies to which the United Methodist Church belongs. The third annual Bishop’s Awards for Ecumenism were presented at Annual Conference. The award for laity was given to Patricia and Paul Kirkegaard of Sioux City. Shirley Rozendaal of Muscatine received the clergy award. The commission calls to the attention of local churches, Ecumenical Shared Ministry (ESM), which is helping churches of different denominations who share pastoral leadership or are considering doing so. ESM is sponsored by Ecumenical Ministries of Iowa.
Shirley Rozendaal, Chairperson
11. Commission on Religion and Race The essential work of the Commission on Religion and Race is to achieve inclusiveness through monitoring, advocating, linking, sensitizing conference boards, agencies, and local congregations as well as empowering ethnic minority groups. There has been an increased 62 IOWA CONFERENCE - 1999
awareness of inclusiveness at the district and local churches’ levels. Most of the districts have included racism workshops as part of their district leadership training events. The commission has started publishing a newsletter called “CORRespondent” which will be published three times a year. In fulfillment of the 1996 General Conference resolution, the commission held its first consultation meeting on “Strengthening the Black church for the 21st Century” on October 31, 1998 at Morrow United Methodist Church, Marshalltown, Iowa. The Iowa Conference has three black congregations: Burns UMC, Des Moines; Morrow UMC, Marshalltown; and Jubilee UMC, Waterloo. Clergy and members from those congregations were invited along with some boards and agencies to the consultation meeting. The second consultation meeting was scheduled to take place at Burns UMC, Des Moines on April 17, 1998. The commission was able to hold a display booth and make a brief report at the NCJ CORR training event held on October 15-17, 1998, in Toledo, OH. There were about 150 participants from NCJ Conferences including seven from Iowa Conference. The event focused on racism and its manifestation in power and decision-making. The commission sponsored a Sensitization workshop for training facilitators of workshops on Racism on October 24, 1998, at the Conference Center in Des Moines. There were fifty-three participants from across Iowa. The facilitators came from the General commission. In small groups, participants brainstormed strategies which can be used to rectify racism. One participant defined racism as “holding a double-edged sword that has no handle.” The commission is planning to sponsor another Sensitization workshop in the fall for the conference boards and agencies. The commission made a presentation during Youth Annual Conference held on March 12-13, 1999, at Simpson College, Indianola, Iowa. A video called “I Have a Friend” was shown at the youth conference.

13. Commission on Ministry with Persons with Disabilities Emphasizing that persons with disabilities bring unique and varied gifts and grace to the Church, we continue to seek wholeness in Christ’s church through promoting the full inclusion and participation of ALL persons. We still strive to set all persons free from barriers, physical, mental, spiritual and psychological, which limit the full and meaningful understanding and expression of faith. To this end, our essential work this past year has been the development and distribution of a brochure telling about our commission. In addition, we recognized that to be knowledgeable advocates for the disabled, that we could enhance our credibility and to this end, we had our first annual retreat at Camp Wesley Woods. We invited professionals in the field to share with us information on building accessibility, education and legislation. We came away with a renewed inspiration to our task. During this past year, we have again promoted Disabilities Awareness Sunday by providing the Service of Celebration information for use by each local church. Under consideration for the year ahead is the development of a undated Disabilities Awareness Sunday booklet, specific for the Iowa Annual Conference, listing suggested scripture, sermon topics, hymns and other pertinent materials. It is our belief that the inclusion of the disabled begins at the local church. We are looking at participating in a national disabilities campaign as well as establishing contact and networking with other commissions such as ours. At Annual Conference, we had a booth featuring accessibility (and inaccessibility) in the local churches. We also completed an accessibility audit at each of the five United Methodist camps and this was beneficial to them as the Board of Camps worked on their long range goals. We are proud of our work within the Iowa Annual Conference.

14. Conference Council on Ministries 1998-99 was a year of change and transition for the Conference Council on Ministries. The beginning of my tenure as Council Chair in the summer of 1998 coincided with the departure of three Council staff persons: Director Don Mendenhall, Associate Director Paul Santillan, and Support Staff Chris Schmidt. The fall of 1998 was spent filling those positions. On November 2, Twila Glenn joined the Conference as Council Director. On January 1, Jon Gaul began work as the new Associate Council Director deployed to the Fort Dodge and Des Moines Districts and Elsa Baez-Kelderman joined the Council Support Staff. On behalf of the entire Council, I would like to thank George Wylie for taking on the responsibility of Interim Council Director, as well as Inez Dawes and Susan Mendenhall for ensuring that local churches in the Fort Dodge and Des Moines Districts received the resources and assistance they needed during that time. Because of their skill and dedication, the Council was able to move forward during a time of staff change and uncertainty. Thanks primarily to the overall improvement in the financial situation in the Conference, and due in part to the gaps in some salaried positions during the year, the Council was able to recover significantly from the most challenging aspects of its financial position, and finish 1998 without a deficit. This year, the Council began a major evaluation of the staffing model implemented in 1996. This model deploys six field staff throughout the Conference to provide intensive resourcing and services to local churches. The evaluation, which will conclude in the fall of 1999, will result in a recommendation to the Iowa Annual Conference in 2000 as to the future of the Deployed Staffing Model. In an effort to better facilitate the ministry of local churches, the Council this year created a Coordinated Funding package for use by local churches wishing to secure grant funds from the Conference. This new approach to granting special funds is intended to relieve local churches of much of the repetition and detail formerly involved in applying for grants and help them focus more clearly on mission and ministry. As we prepare for the next quadrennium and the new millennium, the Council continues to explore new ways to develop leaders who proclaim the gospel and transform the world, and to assist local churches as they seek to make disciples for Jesus Christ.

15. Conference Council on Youth Ministry The primary task of CCYM is to strengthen ministries with youth that promote thriving discipleship. About 300 U.M. youth, adult workers with youth, and ministry professionals participated in Youth Annual Conference (YAC) in March, 1999. It was a “legislative” year and the theme was “Come As A Child.” YAC delegates took part in dynamic worship, small groups, connectional forums, Christian fellowship and fun! The business of YAC included the consideration of legislation, district caucuses, and election of persons to serve in a variety of leadership positions. Leadership for YAC was provided by CCYM and YAC Standing Committee members, district youth coordinators, cabinet members, board and agency representatives, and the YAC band “Crosswired.” The “Shared Mission Focus on Young People” grant (1998-2001) continues to support our cyberspace pilot project. Sam Grotewold is the webservant and convener of the “Web-Site Task Force.” This initiative is designed to help claim cyberspace as a justifiable tool for ministry with young people. Look for our site
- The “Youth Group Challenge” guides and strengthens local U.M. youth groups and its members. Groups who take “The Challenge” work annually to meet goals that encourage disciple- making. All CCYM initiatives, programs, and events help support ministry in local churches, promote mission giving, and provide leadership training.

1. Churches United of the Quad City Area, Rock Island, Illinois Churches United Food Pantry Network: Churches United staff coordinates the work of 20 strategically-located Food Pantries in Scott County, Iowa and Rock Island County, Illinois, which in 1998, provided $383,528 worth of food to 41,760 people from 12,575 families. In 1998, we opened two new Food Pantries with evening service. One at Community of Joy United Methodist Church in Bettendorf and the other at Solid Rock Spiritual Church in Rock Island, Illinois. Since increasing numbers of those needing emergency food are the “working poor,” it is critical that pantries be open in the evening hours. Our office refers hungry clients to the proper Pantry, maintains a special bank account for Pantries to access to buy the food they give away, collects and compiles records, provides periodic in-service training and support for volunteer coordinators, and serves as coordinator of emergency hunger information for the Illinois-Iowa Quad Cities welfare reform coalitions. Churches United Meal Sites: Hot, nutritious, tasty, FREE meals are served to homeless and other hungry people Monday through Saturday evenings throughout the year at the Davenport Salvation Army Family Service Center. The East Moline, Illinois, Meal Site, which we opened in 1996, in partnership with Project NOW, serves meals four nights weekly (Monday-Thursday) at the Oak Grove Community Center, in the midst of a low-income housing area. We estimate that some 40,000 meals are provided at the two meal sites during the year. Churches United staff recruits, orientates and coordinates the serving of the congregations, pays for all supplies and serving materials, and manages relationships among serving churches, site host staff, and consumers. Jail Ministry: Churches United staff recruits, trains, supervises and coordinates some 50 volunteer chaplains, lay and clergy, at the Rock Island (Illinois) and Scott (Iowa) County Jails. Volunteers minister through active listening, Christian caring, Bible study, and worship leadership. We provide liaison between jail administrators and congregations and volunteers, and provide free Bibles and other printed materials for all inmates. The “Family Connection”: In 1994, we were invited to begin meeting with a coalition of professionals who work extensively with victims and perpetrators of domestic violence, to help them develop a site at which parents, who are separated due to violence in their relationship, could bring the children to exchange them for parental visitation without the parents encountering each other. In 1995, we helped establish The Family Connection, Inc., a partnership of the church community, the judicial, law enforcement, and corrections community, and several human service agencies. It is staffed entirely by volunteers from ten different churches, mostly affiliated with the Northwest Davenport Ministerial Association. Over 40 families have been or are being served. In November, 1998, The Family Connection, Inc. was awarded an Ecumenical/Interfaith Service Award by the National Council of Church of Christ in the USA. Goals for 1999: (1) Computerize each of the Food Pantries, and network them with each other, with our office, and with the River Bend Food Bank, the local “Second Harvest” food warehouse; (2) Recruit additional congregations to serve the Churches United Meal Sites, hopefully expanding the East Moline site to six nights weekly; (3) Explore the possibility of moving the Davenport Meal Site to a more inviting and functional site; (4) Recruit and train additional Jail Chaplains, especially from among the Hispanic and other ethnic minority communities.

b. Iowa State University, Ames - Rev. W Scott Grotewold, Director; Rev. James B. Shirbroun, Associate Director and Campus Minister; Rev. Cynthia McCalmont, Associate Director - Our mission is to model implement and affirm what it means to be the body of Christ. We will provide spiritual growth opportunities through service, sharing, worship, counseling, study and celebration for students, faculty and staff of Iowa State University. The Wesley Foundation at Iowa State University is strong because of committee students and staff striving to fulfill the above mission. Service: Students sponsored a Harvest party for children from Arbor Hills, a neighboring apartment community. At Christmas time students raised $87 from a missions calendar project to donate to Christmas Closet. Non-student members of Wesley Board matched it with another $85. Individual students served at Youth Works in Montana, Iowa Wesley Foundations Summer Company, and Appalachian Service Project. Sharing: Fourteen students participated in a deputation to West Liberty UMC during spring semester. Large cookies were delivered to ISU students who attended worship for the first time each Sunday beginning fall semester. Although plans were made for a coffee house ministry in Wesley Place, not enough students were found to staff it regularly. Wesley Board members greeted new students and their families during the ISU summer orientation fair. Seven students attended a Iowa United Methodist Student Movement gathering in Des Moines in November. Worship: Students took turns leading weekly vespers. A band was organized which played at vespers. Students wore name tags at Sunday morning worship to help new students feel welcome and to have worshipers know who they were. Wesley Singers (our vocal group) assisted with various Sunday morning worship services. A student led Sermon Lunches, which involved a group eating together and discussion the sermon. Midweek chapel was offered on campus. Counseling: When requested, pastors counseled Wesley students as well as other ISU students. Students and Wesley Board members also did informal counseling when call upon. Study: Covenant discipleship groups were formed in the fall semester. Questions of Faith met weekly. Church school used Faith Link curriculum from Cokesbury. Celebration: Summer alumni reunions were held in 4 locations around the state. Fall “Welcome Back” and “Welcome to” picnics were held. Wesley Board members hosted a Christmas progressive dinner. Submitted by Beverly Kruempel, ISU Wesley Foundation Board Chair

c. University of Iowa, Iowa City - David Schuldt, Director; Marsha Acord, Associate Director - The Wesley Foundation at the University of Iowa serves as the extension of the United Methodist Church in mission on the campus. A local board initiative this year was the beginning of a visioning and long-range planning process. Under the director of Paul Shultz, the Board held a INFORMATION REPORTS 69 retreat in the fall. We gathered information from alumni, students, parents of students, sub-district ministers, other campus ministers and peer ministers. This data combined with financial and building information will form the basis of a strategic plan for campus ministry for the next decade. When the Wesley Foundation Board has approved the plan it will be shared with the Conference Board of Higher Education and Campus Ministry and the Annual Conference. There was a major remodeling project completed in the old brick house at 213 E. Market over the summer. Two weekends with twenty-three volunteers helped get the work done. The painting, carpeting, cleaning and remodeling was organized and coordinated by Brent Patterson a student peer minister. In addition to the work at 213 E. Market an emergency sprinkler system was installed on the top floor of the main building. This was required by the City as one of several changes in order to house students in the rooms and apartment in the building. On December 1, 1998 the Wesley Foundation parsonage was sold to the pastor of the Iowa City Korean Church. Proceeds from the sale will be used to provide a housing allowance for the ministry staff. The Conference Trustees and the Conference Chancellor assisted with the details of the sale. Our ministry continues to respond to the call of Christ to be in service to the world as we provide space for the Free Medical Clinic, the Free Dental Clinic, the Free Lunch Program, The Wesley Hostel, the Chinese Church and the Interdenominational Christian church (African American). We are grateful to the Annual Conference for the financial support we receive which enables us to be in ministry on the campus of the University of Iowa.

d. University of Northern Iowa, Cedar Falls - David Glenn-Burns, Director John Wesley was a campus minister!” So reads a pin that has been around Wesley for several years. We are proud to claim this faith heritage of the Wesleys’ “Holy Club” at Oxford University. They sought to add vital, life changing piety and social concern to the educational experiences of their time. We seek to carry on that tradition as we minister in this setting. Central to our ministry is a belief that God is creative, made manifest in the beautiful love, grace and justice for all shown in the life and ministry of Jesus. Ministering from this basis becomes less a formula or program item and more of a work of art whose beauty emerges from the combination of elements such as artists, the media used, the environment, the context, etc. The beauty of this year’s ministry art shows forth in such elements as: -the expanded outreach to international students and their families through English language and culture groups, a food bank, and several cultural social events; -the Christians in Action worship and outreach teams; -the New Visions Summer Company outreach (expanding to three teams in ‘99); -the variety of Bible Study groups, including the Serendipity series and “Claiming the Promise”; -the new Track Team Fellowship Group; -Student representatives at several National, Jurisdictional and Conference United Methodist Student Movement events; -3 Covenant Discipleship Groups; 70 IOWA CONFERENCE - 1999

1. United Methodist Women The 1998 theme for United Methodist Women was “God’s Word: Changing Life at the Crossroads” with Jeremiah 6:16 as our Bible verse for the year. Mission studies were: “The Bible: The Book That Bridges the Millennium,” “Uprooted! Refugees and Forced Migrants” and “Indonesia In Shadow and Light.” The youth camper study was “Islands of the Rainbow.” School of Christian Mission was held at Cornell College and the Mini Education Event was held at Starlite Village, Ames. One addition to the school was the spiritual growth study taught in Korean. We were happy to have four Korean women with us and hope to increase that number. In March, we had a two day legislative advocate training for Conference officers and the district presidents and social action persons. In November, we had Mission Today led by the NCJ CORE Planning Team for the Conference team and all the district officers. This was to better acquaint us with the mission of United Methodist Women. The districts are busy with plans for our Always in Mission (AIM) program with hand-on and educational sessions to carry out mission locally. Our Annual Meeting was held in Storm Lake, October 7, with Barbara Campbell as our speaker. We strongly urged our women to be advocates and to not merely talk about the needs around us and in the world. We continue to strive to carry out the Purpose of United Methodist Women, seeking God’s will for us as we do so. INFORMATION REPORTS 71

2. United Methodist Men Iowa UM Men agree that “Our highest priority is to build and promote the spiritual growth of men,” (1999 EMS brochure). The General Commission on United Methodist Men, as the newest agency of the United Methodist Church, seeks to impact millions of men in the UMC. The mission of the GCUMM and Iowa UMM is: “Assist men to know Jesus Christ, to serve Him, to grow spiritually, and to seek daily to do His will. The GCUMM seeks to offer the best materials and opportunities to U.M. men. Iowa UMM in connection with the GCUMM, the North Central UMM, the west area of the NCJUMM, and Iowa districts offer opportunities for every man to share in evangelism, mission and spiritual life. Nearly 500 Iowa United Methodists, lay and clergy, contributed $25 as individuals in 1998 to the Every Man Shares program. Over 100 men’s groups contributed $50 to certify or renew a chartered group. These annual contributions are used to support the Upper Room Prayer Ministry, youth and scouting ministries, the Moving United Methodists Program, evangelism ministries, mission ministries, and spiritual life ministries at national, jurisdictional, conference and district levels. These contributions also help to fund training, resources, administrative costs, etc. and brings the quarterly “UM Men Magazine” and the bimonthly newsletter “MensNews” to EMS members and charter presidents. Other missions supported by Iowa UM Men are Meals for Millions, Self Help, Heifer Project International, and specifically at this time the Iowa-Nigeria Partnership. Iowa UM Men have set a goal to help raise $100,000 for a new mission airplane in Nigeria. In conjunction with this mission Iowa UM Men are promoting the “Official United Methodist Men New Testament” to help fund the “Keep Mission Flying in Nigeria” project. Iowa UM Men were involved in spiritual life activities at district retreats, Annual Meeting, and jurisdictional events. With a renewed emphasis on small groups, many local UM Men have become more involved in spiritual life, mission and evangelism. Iowa UM Men will continue to declare the centrality of Jesus Christ at the local, district, conference and jurisdictional levels through evangelism, mission, and spiritual life.

3. Morningside College After the resignation of Dr. Jerry Israel, who left Morningside in order to serve as president of Indianapolis University (also UM-related), Dr. David Marker, former president of Cornell College, served as interim president 1998-1999. A new president, John Reynders, a vice-president at UM- related Allegheny College in Pennsylvania, has been hired and will begin his responsibilities on July 15, 1999. We are looking forward to the leadership and vision he will bring to Morningside. 1998-1999 marked the entrance of the first class of students under our new curriculum, which has been redesigned to better serve the needs of the liberal arts students of today. Our total enrollment has increased again, for a total of 1,113 students. A highlight of this year was the visit of Bishop Leontine Kelly, retired UM bishop, for our Wright Lecture Series. The all-campus worship serve at Grace UMC during which she preached, was most memorable, and many are calling it their favorite event of the year. We are grateful and honored that Bishop Kelly was able to be with us. We continue to be amazed and humbled by the support of our alumni, friends, students, and families, churches and the annual conference. May our ministry of education continue to touch the lives of others in life-changing ways.

The College continues its long standing commitment of providing quality academic preparation and concern for the whole person. Rust maintains an environment conducive to support these commitments. Its curriculum is designed to prepare students from varied cultural backgrounds and different socioeconomic status for professional and graduate study, community service, and employment in numerous fields. The future of Rust College continues to hold promise because of the United Methodist Church’s commitment to education and support through apportionments, the Black College Fund, individual giving and local church donations. This support is critical as it assists the College in expanding its endowed scholarship program and places Rust in a better position for attracting additional students in its Honors Program. The College operates on a $13 million budget and an endowment of $18 million. Rust closed the 1997-98 fiscal year with a balanced budget, the 31st consecutive year for this institution. The dedication and leadership of Trustees serving from the Iowa Conference (Bishop Charles Wesley Jordan, James V. Poulsen, and Thomas Brown) are appreciated. The Rust College family values the unceasing moral, spiritual, and financial support of the United Methodist Church and expresses gratitude on behalf of our young people who continue to benefit from your investment in their future during this “new era in quest of excellence.”

5. Methodist Manor Retirement Community, Storm Lake Methodist Manor Retirement Community, located on the north shore of beautiful Storm Lake in Storm Lake, Iowa, has made some major changes this past year. First of all, we changed our name from Methodist Manor to Methodist Manor Retirement Community. The reason for the name change was to state the whole continuum of care that is now available. In August of 1998, we opened our independent living facility known as Lake Pointe Villa. The facility has 38 one and two bedroom apartments. As of this date, only one one-bedroom apartment is vacant. We also started a new dietary building known as Central Commons which includes a modern kitchen, a maintenance area, much needed offices, a new therapy room and a community room. These changes along with other ones follows our mission statement which is “Methodist Manor Retirement Community is a multi-level services community for older adults providing a quality care in a loving Christian environment.”

4. Ecumenical Ministries of Iowa 1998 was a year of both accomplishment and transition for EMI. Accomplishments included a successful Winter Conference on Ministry held in Ames, and provided excellent speakers as well as worship and workshops for 250 participants. The Unity Commission began a study on Ecclesiology by hosting Dr. Michael Kinnamon for the Spring Faith and Order discussion of the Board of Directors. The Justice Commission moved ahead on the "Building Hospitable Communities" project. $15,000 in grants was distributed to five Iowa communities to assist in addressing concerns relating to immigrants. The Commission also produced a 1999 Legislative Issues Video entitled "Yearning for Justice: A Plumb Line in the Midst of My People." "Comm-UNITY for the Common Good" continued under the direction of Diane Patton. The project addresses the issues of welfare reform and enlists local congregations in support of those families leaving welfare. Transition began as Dr. James Ryan left EMI for a position in Colorado. Rev. James Ebbers was engaged as the Interim Director. Rev. Sarai Schnucker Beck of Ames was called to the full time position. The EMI Board concurred with a recommendation from the Justice Commission that the rural economy was again becoming a critical issue.

7. Christian Educators Fellowship of Iowa Iowa’s Christian Educators Fellowship assists lay, ordained elders and deacons, certified and consecrated persons serving in areas of Christian education with both professional and personal needs. We provide opportunities for spiritual growth, continuing education, sharing of program and curriculum ideas, fellowship, and personal support through national conventions, retreats and district cluster meetings. Iowa was well represented at the National Ecumenical Christian Educator’s event, Faith Odyssey, held in Chicago last February. During that week, Iowa’s educators had a chance to participate in workshops on worship, music, family, milestones, youth and many other topics. Nationally known speakers and authors in their specific fields led these workshops. It was also a time of fellowship and sharing as the Iowa educators met for dinner one evening and many shared rooms. The state chapter holds two spiritual retreats a year. Last fall Josie Ravenwing shared worship and meditation experiences from the Native American culture. The fall retreat also includes a new educator’s orientation meeting. The spring retreat will host Carol Krau from the General Board of Discipleship in Nashville speaking on “Growing and Nurturing a Great Volunteer Staff.” District clusters (small groups based on district boundaries) determine their own meeting times and agendas. Cluster groups can provide ideas, information, a web of professional links, friendship and support. CEF publishes a quarterly newsletter called MICE. Educators are invited to contribute ideas and information about Christian Education and/or Youth Ministries. Iowa CEF urges churches who employ persons in the area of Christian education and youth ministry to contact the Conference Center or the President of the Iowa CEF so that educators can be connected with a cluster group and receive the MICE mailing.

Since 1992, it has been a chapter affiliated with PAUMCS (Professional Association of United Methodist Church Secretaries). The group currently has 57 members although more attend some of the area meetings. Two state meetings were held in 1998. The first was held at Calvary UMC in Ames on Saturday, June 6, during Annual Conference. Kae Tritle, Wellness Coordinator of the Annual Conference, spoke on “S O S - Rescue Me From Stress.” In the afternoon Rev. Brian Milford, pastor at Lovely Lane UMC in Cedar Rapids, spoke on the topic of “Staying Out of the Middle.” The fall meeting was held at First UMC in Cedar Falls on Wednesday, September 16. Rev. Paul Shultz, Bi-District Field Staff, presented a program in the morning centering on “Ministry Across Generations”; and in the afternoon he focused on “Using the Internet as a Ministry Tool.” Eight area meetings were held throughout the state during the year. Having area meetings allows the secretaries to get together close to home so that more may attend.

11. Shesler Hall, Sioux City If there were one word to describe 1998, it would be the word “change”. We are still providing a room and board residence to women with special needs but we have changed how we are providing support to the residents at Shesler Hall. Although we’ve always had a staff person in the building 24 hours a day, 365 days a year, we now have 3 full-time staff plus 4 part-time staff. Prior to 1998, I was the only full-time staff member and everyone else was part-time. Instead of a secretary, Shesler Hall now has an Administrative Assistant and instead of a Housekeeper/Cook, we now have a Life Skills Coordinator. This position is an exciting new change for Shesler Hall. We now have the opportunity and the staff person to work with the residents to work on their independent living skills so they can move in to their own apartment. It is a program that we can “grow into” and modify as the needs of the women change and grow. Forty-nine women called Shesler Hall “home” some for a day and some for the whole year. Twenty-three women came to Shesler Hall because they were homeless or near homeless. We provided 616 days of housing for women we call “emergency placements” and are here under our “Emergency Placement Program.” They have a variety of special needs from being homeless to having multiple disabilities. Seventeen women came to stay at Shesler Hall and were in our “Transitional Housing Program.” This is a program for women who have been diagnosed with a chronic form of mental illness like schizophrenia, manic-depression, depression, or borderline personality disorder and we provided 1,920 days of housing to them. They stay at Shesler Hall for 2 years or less. The last program is “Permanent, Low Cost Housing for Women with Special Needs.” These women have lived at Shesler Hall for longer than 2 years and may or may not have a diagnosed mental illness. They may need to live in a supportive living environment. We provided 4, 919 days housing to women in this program. It is hard to believe as I type this report that I have been at Shesler Hall 12 years this month. It has been a joy and a challenge to work with the women we serve. It has also been a privilege to be here...and without the support of the United Methodist Women and United Methodist Church we would not be able to do this mission work. Thanks for your continued prayers and support! Vera L. Ludwig, Executive Director 80 IOWA CONFERENCE - 1999
12. The Methodist Federation for Social Action Each year MFSA holds two retreats. The 1998 February meeting was an interaction with Joe Volk, national legislative coordinator for the American Friends Service Committee. The fall meeting brought Dorothy Higdon to lead sessions on working conditions and child labor. This was a tie-in with teaching and action she and others are doing as United Methodist Women. The Annual Conference banquet was well attended, with George Tinker speaking. Social Justice Awards were presented to Marsha Acord and to the Church and Society Committee of Grace Church, Sioux City. The selections were based upon Rev. Acord's long and effective service in social action ministries and the Sioux City Committee's active role in supporting working people, including a major conference on labor issues. MFSA sought to play an effective role at the 1998 Annual Conference sessions, with attempts at building linkages around issues which might produce major conflict without some efforts before floor debate. Chapter member Tom Mohan is now a national co-president of MFSA.

17. Wall Street Mission/Goodwill Industries Wall Street Mission/Goodwill Industries (WSM/GI) completed a banner year in 1998. There are several areas of innovation and expansion that are worth noting. In client services 91 persons were placed in competitive employment throughout the year. We served 773 clients in our vocational and residential programs. In community services Goodwill provided three major events: Summer Camp, Thanksgiving Dinner, and the Shoe and Mitten Party. Summer Camp was expanded to include the Siouxland Y’s day camp program. This allowed the children and youth of the Y program to have an outdoor location for their camp experience. Along with four hundred children in the Goodwill Camp program nearly another 100 children per week from the Y were served for eleven weeks by the Goodwill Camp. Our Thanksgiving Dinner served over three thousand dinners to persons in Sioux City, Le Mars, Mason City, Sioux Falls, Yankton, and Norfolk. Our Christmas Shoe and Mitten party gave over 2,600 children shoes, socks, mittens, and hats. Parties were held in Sioux City, Mason City, INFORMATION REPORTS 81

LEGISLATIVE SECTION I
101. Board of Camps Master Plan and Feasibility Study Request
1999 ANNUAL CONFERENCE REPORT FINANCE AND MARKETING TASK FORCE OF THE MASTER PLAN DEVELOPMENT PROCESS BOARD OF CAMPS AND EXTENDED MINISTRIES
Formation and Focus of the Task Force Following the 1998 Annual Conference directive, a Finance and Marketing Task Force was created and began meeting in July.
They endorsed: The essential work of Board of Camps and Extended Ministries to provide Christian growth experiences, where Jesus Christ transforms lives, persons grow in Christian discipleship, and leaders are developed to empower their local churches in the world.
A Vision for Changing Lives through Camps and Retreats based on the Kaleidoscope Master Plan Development study with its analysis of current operation, focus on ministry development and creation of facilities that provide the environment where people can experience Christian community and grow in their walk of faith.
They saw opportunities for: Local church and camps/retreats ministry working together more closely in making and nurturing disciples.
Linking with groups and individuals in developing retreats and conferences that train leaders and empower persons for ministry in the world.
Focus on wholeness of mind, body and spirit in outdoor settings that offer respite and renewal.
What is Being Done
1. Management of the camping ministry: Camper evaluations indicate 95% of respondents rated their experience excellent or good. 85% of respondents indicated camp had helped them grow in their relationship with Jesus.
Changes in apportionment funding to campsites, increased fees and user days, and careful management of budgets has significantly reduced deficits in 1997 and 1998. The Board of Camps and Extended Ministries has a financial plan to be deficit free by 2000.
Each campsite has at least a part time secretary who provides timely financial and usage data for effective management. The data also keeps the Kaleidoscope analysis current and enables REPORTS OF CONFERENCE ACTION 149 tracking of our progress in reaching future ministry goals
More aggressive use of volunteers and part time staff for day-to-day operations of the facilities is allowing Site Executive Directors to become more focused on program development, training staff and volunteers, supervising the management of the site, marketing and networking with persons and groups in the site's area.
2. Structure and accountability:
The Board of Camps and Extended Ministries is undertaking a comprehensive evaluation of the structure, roles, staffing systems and their management with the help of an outside consultant and the assistance of CFA.
The Board is updating its Policies and Procedures Manual. This process is clarifying structure, roles, relationships and procedures for effective ministry.
3. Marketing: Information is being gathered on our current program and marketing strategies as well as other factors affecting participation in our camps, retreats and hosted group ministries. Working with the Board and sites, plans will be developed to increase the effectiveness of promoting and marketing the ministry in 2000.
Where We are Going
1. Grow the Dream Meetings: A series of Grow The Dream meetings is being planned across the conference this spring to give persons the opportunity to be in dialog and share their hopes for the ministry. The vision from the Kaleidoscope study will be part of the dialog. This market research will bring greater clarity to the vision and enable the creation of a compelling case statement for development.
2. Database Development: Developing a broad base of names is critical for a successful capital funds campaign. Database needs include all United Methodists in the Conference, as well as the names and addresses of persons who have attended camps or been on camp staff in past years. Details about the creation and maintenance of the database are not yet complete. However the database will be handled with integrity and used with good stewardship.
3. Feasibility Study: Early in 2000 a feasibility study will be needed to test the support for a capital funds campaign. This is a critical step in planning a successful campaign. The study will test the support for the vision and the development. It will advise us how to proceed and the level of financial support that can be raised. The results of the feasibility study will be part of our report to the 2000 Annual Conference.
4. Annual Conference in 2000: It is the plan of the Board of Camps and Extended Ministries that the Finance and Marketing Task Force have a compelling case statement for future ministry and development as well as the results of the feasibility study by early in the year 2000. This supporting information along with the plan for a successful capital campaign will be presented to the Council on Finance and Administration with the request for their approval and presentation to the Annual Conference for final approval. The Next Step
The Board of Camps hopes to undertake a Feasibility Study to test the level of financial support for a capital funds campaign which would support the programmatic and capital expansions under consideration.
Approval History: 1. February 23, 1999 - The Board of Camps acted to pursue professional services to conduct a feasibility study to test support for a capital funds campaign at a cost not to exceed $51,000. At the same time, the Board of Camps committed $10,000 of its 1999 funds to the study, and acted to provide the balance of funds necessary from its Camps Maintenance and Improvements account 150 IOWA CONFERENCE - 1999 in the year 2000.
2. March 6, 1999 - The Conference Council on Ministries approved the Board of Camps’ decision to pursue the Capital Funds Feasibility Study. At the same time, CCOM committed $5,000 in 1999 funds to the study and agreed to consider committing $9,000 in 2000 CCOM funds to the study.
3. March 16, 1999 - The Council on Finance and Administration approved the Board of Camps’ pursuit of a Capital Funds Feasibility Study.
Action The Iowa Annual Conference received this report as an update regarding the progress of planning for major programmatic and capital expansion of camps and extended ministries. Further, the Iowa Annual Conference approves the Board of Camps and Extended Ministries’ request to pursue a Feasibility Study to test the level of financial support for a Capital Funds Campaign.
GENERAL CONFERENCE PETITIONS
127. Continuation of the Peace with Justice Special Sunday with Church-wide Offering The Iowa Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church petitions the 2000 General Conference of The United Methodist Church to retain the current statements on the Peace with Justice Special Sunday and Offering as they appear in ¶266, ¶267, and ¶816.5 in the 1996 Book of Discipline of The United Methodist Church.
Rationale: The Peace with Justice Special Sunday is the only church-wide Sunday in the life of The United Methodist Church where peace and justice ministries are particularly emphasized. As Wesleyan people, we are called to social holiness. ¶267 in the 1996 Book of Discipline of The United Methodist Church specifies that Peace with Justice Sunday be celebrated on the Second Sunday of Pentecost. “Pentecost celebrates the outpouring of the Holy Spirit calling for God’s shalom. Peace with Justice witnesses to God’s demand for a faithful, just, disarmed, and secure world.”
The Peace with Justice Special Sunday Offering was established after congregations from throughout the church petitioned the 1984 General Conference; and
Because of growing grassroots support and promotion, the Peace with Justice Special Offering has increased an average of 10.33% every year this quadrennium ; and
Every annual conference retains fifty percent of the Peace with Justice Special Sunday Offering, providing significant funds for their own peace and justice ministries. In many annual conferences, this is the primary funding source for Conference Board of Church and Society programming ministries. There are over 3,600 Peace with Justice Network members. 38 PwJ Educators have been placed in a number of annual conferences over the last 15 years. PwJ Coordinators are active in almost every annual conference. Peace with Justice ministries include legislative advocacy on land mines and nuclear weapons, providing conflict resolution training for children and youth at risk, advocating for job training programs, and promoting a hospitable atmosphere for immigrants and refugees.
The Peace with Justice Special Sunday offering provides vital funding to the General Board of Church and Society to administer a growing, grass-roots network and programming for that network in peace and justice ministries. Local church and annual conference ministries are strengthened through these efforts and through Peace with Justice Program grants.
130. Petition for 2000 General Conference 1. Ordained clergy and associate members carry the qualifications and responsibilities for ministry in the United Methodist Church.
THEREFORE, BE IT RESOLVED: That they also have full rights to practice their connectional relationship by having the right to vote in such matters as constitutional amendments, election of clergy delegates to the General and the Jurisdictional or Central Conferences, and matters of ordination, character, and conference relations of clergy.
The following change would be required in the Discipline: Page 309 (1996) Section IX. The Annual REPORTS OF CONFERENCE ACTION 151
Conference, 602 - C. Change the word “except” to the word, “including.”
LEGISLATIVE SECTION II
RESTRUCTURING 201. Restructuring Task Force Report on History, Background, and Outline of Proposed Changes
This report describes the background of the proposals to restructure some of the administrative functions of the Iowa Annual Conference. In addition, it briefly outlines those proposals. Adoption of this item does not, by itself, make any functional changes. Instead, adoption of this report ensures that the background and intent of the changes will be recorded in the Reports of Conference Actions.
In 1995 the Annual Conference Session approved the restructuring of the program agencies of the Iowa Conference. The enabling report recommended that a new task force be established for the restructuring of the administrative committees of the Iowa Annual Conference.
Following the 1996 General Conference, additional changes in the Iowa Annual Conference Rules of Order were necessary to comply with new legislation.
The 1996 Annual Conference approved a recommendation that Bishop Jordan be authorized to appoint a task force to present a plan of restructuring of the conference administrative committees of the Iowa Annual Conference (Legislation #665).
The initial Task Force appointed by Bishop Jordan began its review of the Administrative Committees in the fall of 1996. Members of that Task Force were: The Rev. Dr. Nancy L. Allen, Chair The Rev. Jon Disburg Ms. Jody Gooch The Rev. Dan Herndon The Rev. Dr. J. Robert Burkhart, Consultant Mr. Don Mendenhall, Consultant The Rev. Dr. Charles Smith, Consultant
The Task Force held as its guide the mission of the Iowa Annual Conference: “to develop leaders who proclaim the gospel and transform the world...so that every Iowa United Methodist Congregation and faith community can fulfill its mission through its primary task of making disciples” (p.4, 1996 Iowa Conference Journal). The entire administrative structure and respective Rules of Order were reviewed in light of this mission statement.
Each administrative body was asked to respond to a questionnaire designed to explain its role in assisting the Conference in fulfilling its primary task. The questions were: 1. How do you see your committee supporting this task? 2. How and whom do you serve through that? 3. How does your existing structure support the task? If it does not, what suggestions or recommendations would you make? 4. Is there other information you believe we should know?
The Task Force then went through a process of evaluation, consultation, with respective groups, and re-evaluation to create a series of recommended structure revisions with concurrent changes in the Rules of Order. These recommendations and changes were presented at the 1998 Iowa Annual Conference. After much consideration, the 1998 Annual Conference Session took two actions: 1. Item #216 (listing the changes in the Rules of Order necessitated by accepting the Task Force Report) was referred back to the Task Force for further consultation with the instruction that another report be returned to the 1999 Annual Conference Session (p. 173, 1998 Conference Journal). 2. Item #217 (a report from the Task Force) was received but implementation of the item was delayed until the 1999 Annual Conference adjourns (p. 173, 1998 Conference Journal).
Since the 1998 Annual Conference Session, the Task Force has engaged in several forms of 152 IOWA CONFERENCE - 1999
“further consultation.”
First, the Task Force was expanded by further nominations from Bishop Jordan. Further, the Rev. Dr. Nancy L. Allen resigned from the Chair and the Task Force due to the increasing time demands of her appointment. The current Task Force is: Ms. Beverly Spencer, Co-Chair The Rev. Jon Duisburg, Co-Chair Deacon Ruth Ann Scott The Rev. David Wendel Mr. Jody Smith The Rev. Dan Herndon Ms. Jody Gooch Ms. Twila Glenn, Consultant The Rev. Dr. Charles Smith, Consultant The Rev. Dr. J. Robert Burkhart, Consultant
Second, the Task Force conducted several listening and feedback sessions to which all concerned boards, agencies and committees were invited. The feedback from these sessions led to a large amount of changes in this year’s Task Force recommendations. Not the least of which, the changes include an effort to make the entire presentation easier to understand, less lengthy, more workable and more representative of the Conference. The Task Force thanks all whose formal and informal feedback, suggestions and ideas contributed to this report.
There are seven proposals of the Administrative Committees Restructuring Task Force. They are: 1. Create a new committee, the Personnel Committee. 2. Create a new council, the Annual Conference Administrative Coordinating Council. 3. Replace the Annual Conference Session Committee and the Journal Publication Committee with a new committee, the Annual Conference Session Planning Committee. 4. Divide the Conference Nominations and Leadership Development Committee into two separate committees: a. The Conference Leadership Development Coordinating Committee - a thirteen member committee, including one representative from each district; the functions will be as currently outlined in V.C.3.b., with some modifications. b. The Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee - a thirteen member committee, including one representative from each district, plus the Executive Secretary as a consultant; the functions currently outlined in V.C.2.a(1) and (2) will be modified so that the committee performs a coordination function and does not, itself, make any nominations -- instead, it structures and oversees a process whereby District Nominations Committees and other agencies and offices make nominations for conference positions. 5. Encourage each district to develop a plan for leadership development. 6. Update the rules which govern nominations processes and which define eligibility of nominees. 7. Further define the functions of the Committee on Rules of Order.
202. Annual Conference Administrative Coordinating Council
This change creates a coordinating council, chaired by the Bishop and convened at least twice a year. Its job is to ensure that committees responsible for various aspects of administration and Annual Conference Session planning share information with each other regularly, are accountable to each other for their work, and pursue common goals.
There shall be an Annual Conference Administrative Coordinating Council. (1) Membership: (a) The membership shall consist of the chairs and one additional member of each of the following: Conference Council on Ministries, Conference Council on Finance and Administration, Annual Conference Personnel Committee, Annual Conference Planning Committee, Rules of Order Committee, Resolutions Committee, Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee and Conference Leadership Development Coordinating Committee. Consultants shall be the Dean of the Appointive Cabinet, Administrative Assistant to the Bishop, Director of Administrative Services/Conference Treasurer and Director of REPORTS OF CONFERENCE ACTION 153
Conference Council on Ministries. (b) The chair of the Annual Conference Administrative Coordinating Council shall be the Bishop or Bishop’s designee. (2) Function: (a) Meetings of the Council shall be scheduled to ensure accountability, communication, clarity and shared purpose related to the common work of the Annual Conference Planning Committee, Annual Conference Personnel Committee, Rules of Order Committee, Resolutions Committee, Committee on Nominations and Committee on Leadership Development. (b) The Council shall articulate the long range, overall direction and theme for the Annual Conference sessions.

This item creates a Conference Personnel Committee which is responsible for setting and monitoring personnel policies for the Conference. This Committee will also assist Conference agencies with personnel issues, and participate in conducting searches when they hire staff. This Committee will replace the Conference Council on Ministries’ Personnel Committee and the personnel functions of the Council on Finance and Administration. In addition, it will assume the major responsibilities of the Board of Camps’ Personnel Committee.

If a family member of a committee member is hired, the latter must immediately resign from the committee with the exception of the ex officio member who must refrain from involvement in any matters for which the committee has responsibility in relationship to the family member employed. (d) The committee may from time to time contract with a consultant(s) specializing in personnel matters. (2) Function: The role of the Annual Conference Personnel Committee shall vary depending on the agency or employing body’s relationship to the Annual Conference.

204. Annual Conference Session Planning Committee
This proposal combines the current Session Committee and Journal Publications Committee. This new Committee will be chaired by the Bishop or the Bishop’s designee, and will be made up primarily of at-large members drawn from the districts. It will have sub- committees for Business and Agenda, Arrangements, and Journal Publication. Persons performing various functions for the Conference Session will work under the direction of the Committee. This proposal also changes the official status of the Journal Editor from elected Conference officer to staff member in the Office of Administrative Services. This reflects current practice.

205. Conference Leadership Development Coordinating Committee
This item creates a new committee focused specifically on leadership development in the Conference. It combines a strong coordination role with many of the leadership development responsibilities currently assigned to the Conference Nominations and Leadership Development Committee. Adoption of this proposal will place leadership development functions parallel to, rather than subordinate to, nominations functions.
There shall be a Conference Leadership Development Coordinating Committee. (1) Membership: (a) Shall consist of one person from each of the twelve districts nominated by the district committee on nominations and elected at the district conferences, and one representative each from the Commission in Ministry with Persons with Disabilities, the Commission on Religion and Race and the Commission on Status and Role of Women. The chair shall be elected from within the committee. (2) Functions: (a) Have responsibility for coordinating the development of leadership for Annual Conference boards, agencies, commissions, committees and positions in accordance with The Book of Discipline and/or the Iowa Annual Conference Rules of Order. (b) Be aware of and give support to the leadership development being done in the Annual Conference by groups such as districts, boards, councils, commissions, committees, and conference lay organizations. (c) Evaluate the leadership development opportunities available both within and outside the church to discover the gaps and overlaps and propose ways to have a full and complete program of leadership development. (d) Ensure that agencies initiate and develop continuing leadership programs which shall include: 1) Enabling a gift discovery process. 2) Clear descriptions of leadership positions. 3) Training. 4) Support. 5) Evaluation. 6) Exiting. 7) Working with and managing volunteers. 8) Group dynamics and effective leadership of a group. 9) Alternate ways of doing business in order to hold fewer face-to-face meetings with the attendant travel costs. 10) Learn how to plan the optimum number of programs which can be accomplished effectively. 11) Learn how to write good program proposals. 12) Program planning and management. (e) Distribute listings of current leadership development opportunities both within and outside the church. (f) Maintain a record of leadership development opportunities completed by individuals. Make this record available to district agency and local church nominations committees. A system of recording Continuing Education Units (CEUs) might be developed. (g) Help groups do leadership development at their regular meetings or retreat settings. (h) Coordinate, with the twelve District Councils on Ministries, the development of a design for leadership development and the implementation of this design within the districts to assist local churches in making disciples. (i) Assist district Leadership Development and Nominations Committees in securing information concerning the interest, experience, and competency of individuals who are willing to serve on specific conference agencies prior to nomination to a conference agency. This information shall serve only as a guide in the selection of nominees and in no way shall it bind the district committees on nominations in making their selection of nominees. (j) Initiate efforts to coordinate the work of the committee with the leadership development efforts of the Board of Ordained Ministry, Order of Elders, Order of Deacons, the School for Ministry Commission and the Board of Laity and other agencies working with Leadership Development. REPORTS OF CONFERENCE ACTION 157
206. District Leadership Development
Adoption of this item establishes a mechanism to provide for district leadership development coordination capacity. This capacity will complement the new leadership development coordination process at the Conference level created by the re-structured Conference Leadership Development Coordination Committee.
Following the 1999 Annual Conference, each District Council on Ministries shall appoint a task force to design and implement a comprehensive plan for leadership development on the district in cooperation with the Annual Conference Leadership Development Coordinating Committee. One of the members of this task force shall be the district representative on the Annual Conference Leadership Development Coordinating Committee. This task force shall be funded by the District Council on Ministries.
207. Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee
This changes the Conference nominations process significantly. First, responsibility for actual nominations for Conference positions shifts to District Nominations Committees. Second, the Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee receives those nominations and coordinates them, acting as clearing house, organizer, and resource. The Conference Committee will no longer generate the nominations directly. Third, this proposal attempts to clarify the nature of term limits by eliminating the concept of “filling unexpired terms.” Instead, all persons beginning service on a board or agency will do so with the understanding that it is for a full four-year term (except in the case of those few agencies having unique Disciplinary specifications for their terms).
There shall be a Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee. (1) Membership: (a) Shall consist of one person from each of the twelve districts nominated by the district committee on nominations and elected at the district conferences, and one representative each from the Commission in Ministry to Persons with Disabilities, the Commission on Religion and Race, the Commission on the Status and Role of Women, and one member appointed by CCYM. The chair shall be elected from within the committee. (b) No current member of the Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee may be nominated for any Annual Conference agency or position for which the committee has coordinating responsibility until one year has elapsed since the person left the membership of the committee. If the person is completing his or her sixteenth consecutive year on two or more Conference agencies four years must then elapse before this person is eligible for membership on any Conference agency. (c) No members of the same family shall serve concurrently as members of the Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee. No person or immediate family member of a person employed as a staff member of the Iowa Annual Conference or in any capacity by an agency of the Annual Conference nor any person holding membership on any conference agency shall be eligible for membership on the Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee. If a member of the Committee is appointed to the superintendency or the position of Administrative Assistant, Director of Administrative Services/Conference Treasurer or Director of the Conference Council on Ministries, he/she shall cease being a member of the Committee. The Executive Secretary of the Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee need not be selected from the membership of the Committee. If not, he/she shall be without vote. (2) Functions: (a) Coordinate nominations for Annual Conference boards, agencies, commissions, committees and positions in accordance with The Book of Discipline and/or the Iowa Annual Conference Rules of Order. (b) Serve as a clearing house and coordinating committee for all nominations that involve election by the Annual Conference and present to the Annual Conference Session a ballot containing the names of all persons nominated for positions which require Annual Conference election. The Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee shall present a comprehensive written report of nominations to the Annual Conference at least 12 hours before election and cause the election report to be printed in the Iowa Annual Conference Journal. (c)Serve as a resource to the district committees on nominations who will nominate persons 158 IOWA CONFERENCE - 1999
for membership on agencies not otherwise provided for in The Book of Discipline or the Annual Conference Rules of Order. In resourcing the district committees on nominations, the Conference Coordinating Committee will develop a matrix for district committees so as to ensure that membership for agencies for which the district committees have nominating responsibility, be sensitive to gender, ethnicity, persons with disabilities, age, district equity, clergy who have been members of the Annual Conference for less than ten years, and lay persons who have demonstrated leadership on a district or local church level. (d) Expedite the process of nominations on district and conference levels, providing an efficient method of gathering data, keeping records, disseminating information to districts and to other persons or groups involved in nominations, and facilitating the process of reporting back to the Annual Conference the nominations from various sources. (e) Receive from district nominations committees a list of nominees for conference agencies and elected members. (f) Establish, on an annual basis, a process for addressing contingencies which arise from variations in district nominations committees’ ability to meet their nominating responsibilities. (g) Consult with district nominations committees concerning the following rules which are to be used in the selection of nominees for membership on standing Annual Conference agencies: 1) For the purposes of nominations and elections the following definition shall apply in reference to the term “Annual Conference Agencies. The agencies of the Iowa Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church are the regularly established boards, commissions, councils, standing committees, and committees. Not included are: the Conference Council on Ministries and its subcommittees, Conference Administrative Coordinating Council, Committees on Investigation, Joint Committee on Disability, Boards of Trustees (other than the Board of Trustees of the Iowa Annual Conference), Local campsite boards and the Standing Committees of the Board of Camps and Extended Ministries, the Committee on the Episcopacy, task forces or task groups, ecumenical groups, or committees related to the conduct of the annual sessions of the conference. Chairpersons of standing committees are eligible to be members of the standing committee’s respective agency. 2) Only active members in The United Methodist Church shall be eligible for nomination unless The Book of Discipline or the Iowa Conference Rules of Order specifically provide for ecumenical representation. 3)If a person nominated is a family member of a member on the district committee, the latter must refrain from any involvement in decision making about the position for which nominations are being sought and recommended. No member of a district committee may nominate a member of his or her family for membership on any Annual Conference agency or position for which the district committee has nominating responsibility. 4) An employed staff member of the Annual Conference shall not be eligible for any agency membership. 5) Since district superintendents are members of several agencies on an ex-officio basis, they shall not be nominated for additional membership. A district superintendent shall not be the chairperson of any agency; neither shall a clergy person continue as a chairperson if he/she is appointed district superintendent. 6)The term of office for members of agencies of the Conference are for four years. If the election occurs at Annual Conference, the term of office shall begin at the conclusion of the morning session of the last day of Annual Conference, unless otherwise provided by Articles of Incorporation or proper authority. 7) There shall be an eight year tenure limitation for members of Conference agencies unless a lesser number of years is specified elsewhere, including elective and ex-officio district representation. If a new agency is established, membership on a predecessor agency shall be counted as tenure limitations. Regardless of previous positions held on the Conference Council on Ministries, no person (except the Bishop, members of the Appointive Cabinet, the Conference Secretary and Administrative Assistant to the Bishop) shall serve as a voting member of the Conference Council on Ministries for more than eight consecutive years. A person whose tenure has expired may not be re-elected to that agency until being off for four years. A person filling a vacancy on a conference agency shall not be subject to the term of office of the preceding member. This applies also to a district representative on a conference agency. No person shall serve more than sixteen consecutive years on two or more Conference agencies. After reaching the sixteen year limit, a person will not be eligible for membership on any Conference agency, until four years have elapsed. REPORTS OF CONFERENCE ACTION 159
8) The Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee shall encourage the district committees on nomination to be reasonably certain that the persons they nominate are: (a) Competent to represent the church in this particular field. (b) Willing to make an effort to attend meetings. (c) Willing to do a reasonable amount of home work on committee assignments for the agency. (d) Active members of a local United Methodist Church. (e) Able to demonstrate a commitment to the United Methodist connection, the biblical and historical foundations of the United Methodist Church and the good stewardship of Annual Conference resources. 9) No person may be an elective member of more than one annual conference agency, including those nominated for district representation. However, ethnic persons may serve on one agency in addition to the Commission on Religion and Race; persons with disabilities may serve on one agency in addition to the Commission on Ministry with Persons with Disabilities. 10) A member of the Council on Finance and Administration shall not be permitted elective membership on any other conference agency or any other agency receiving financial support from the Conference. (h) Shall provide the names of members of the conference agencies and the tenure of each member for printing in the Iowa Annual Conference Journal. (i) When revisions or additions to agencies need to be made following the closing session of the Annual Conference, interim elections (for the remainder of the Conference year only) shall take place as follows: 1) Elections necessary to provide district representation on an agency by the District Council on Ministries in consultation with the Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee. 2) When vacancies occur in the general or at-large membership of an agency, the appropriate body or the Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee shall seek nominations from the pertinent district committee on nominations and submit to the Conference Council on Ministries a nomination for each vacancy. If necessary, the election may take place by mailed ballot to the Conference Council on Ministries members. After 15 days from such mailing, a majority vote by return ballots shall constitute an interim election. 3) When interim vacancies are filled by conference agencies in accord with The Book of Discipline, the names of all persons involved shall be cleared through the Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee to determine eligibility and to adjust records. (j) Shall request annually from the secretary of each of the agencies a report on the attendance record of members. The secretary of each agency shall contact in writing each member of the agency who has missed two consecutive meetings calling attention to the absences and request a response on a return card within 15 days indicating a desire to remain as a member of that agency. If there is not a request for continuing membership, the office shall be declared vacant. The vacancy shall be filled in accordance with the Rules of Order. (k) Shall coordinate nominations from the Annual Conference floor. 1) Members who wish to make nominations from the floor following the first report of the Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee shall file within two (2) hours a completed form in duplicate available from a Page. 2) The person being nominated must have given his/her consent. 3) The Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee shall check to see if the nomination would violate any Conference Rules of Order and shall have a copy of this form returned to the nominator prior to the voting, so marked to indicate that the nominee is eligible, or reason he/she is ineligible for election. 4) When the second Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee report is given, members will be given the opportunity to make nominations from the floor of persons who have been determined by the Committee as eligible to serve. In most cases, the member making the nomination will have to state not only the agency in which they would have their nominee serve, but also the position and term of office for which the person is being nominated. 5) As each nomination from the floor is made, a vote will be taken for that particular position. When all nominations from the floor are finished, a vote on the entire Conference Nominations Coordinating Committee Report will be taken. 160 IOWA CONFERENCE - 1999
208. District Nominations Committee

1. Membership. The District Nominations Committee is nominated and elected by the district conference, by written ballot and majority vote and shall be composed of twelve members and the district representatives to the Commission on the Status and Role of Women and the Commission on Religion and Race, or their designees plus one youth member which shall be elected at Youth Annual Conference (YAC). It is strongly recommended that the membership consist of four laywomen, four laymen, and four clergy, with sensitivity to gender, ethnicity, persons with disabilities, age, geography, clergy who have been members of the Annual Conference for less than ten years, and lay persons who have demonstrated local church leadership. These persons shall serve a four year term of office and cannot serve more than eight consecutive years or a major part of two terms, except for the first election, at which time the terms of office may be shortened to set up the rotating pattern. In the event a person moves from the district which elected him or her, he or she shall not continue on the District Nominations Committee, and the district shall provide for another person to fill the unexpired term. It is strongly recommended that the election shall take place so that one clergy, one layman, and one laywoman shall rotate off each year. After such service, four years shall elapse before a person shall be eligible for membership on the Nominations Committee.

This reduces the number of members of the Resolutions Committee from eleven to six, and specifies that it relates to the newly created Annual Conference Administrative Coordinating Council. It makes no other changes in the organization or function of the Committee.
There shall be a Conference Resolutions Committee which relates to the Annual Conference Administrative Coordinating Council. (1) Membership: (a) The membership shall consist of six members, at least one clergy and one laity shall be from churches under 200 members.

210. Committee on Rules of Order
This action does three things. First, it specifies that this Committee relates to the newly created Annual Conference Administrative Coordinating Council. Second, it adds the Director of the Conference Council on Ministries as an ex officio member, increasing the total number of members from eleven to twelve.

211. Implementation of the Restructured Agencies
This item provides the implementation process for those restructuring proposals adopted by the 1999 Annual Conference. The year between the 1999 Annual Conference and 2000 Annual Conference will be a transition period during which budgets and nominations will be aligned to reflect the new structure. The structure will become fully effective at the close of the 2000 Annual Conference.
A) The Council on Finance and Administration will ensure that budgets for agencies created or modified by the 1999 administrative restructuring actions are presented to the 2000 Iowa Annual Conference.

212. Placement of the Restructured Agencies within the Rules of Order and Reconciliation with the remaining Rules of Order
This item authorizes the Rules of Order Committee, working with the Restructuring Task Force, to place the new and restructured agencies in the appropriate places in the Rules of Order. It also authorizes the Rules of Order Committee to make editorial changes elsewhere in the Rules of Order (such as name changes, additions and deletions on various lists, etc.). Finally, this item includes a provision for returning in 2000 for Annual Conference authorization to make any such change that may not be strictly editorial.
A) The Rules of Order Committee, in consultation with the Administrative Restructuring Task Force, will prepare a list of Rules of Order editorial changes necessitated by the 1999 administrative restructuring actions. The Journal Editor will be instructed to make the editorial changes in the Rules of Order. B) In the event that the Rules of Order Committee and the Administrative Restructuring Task Force find that a Rule change would be substantive rather than editorial, that Rule change will be brought to the 2000 Annual Conference for action.

LEGISLATIVE SECTION VI
600. The 2000 Iowa Annual Conference Budget Budget Recommendations Explanation: The Council on Finance and Administration (CFA) in presenting the year 2000 Annual Conference Budget faced a dilemma. The goal of CFA was to present a budget that would be no larger than the estimated budget that was presented to the 1998 Iowa Annual Conference for 2000. The budget presented in l998 reflected a 2.8% increase over the l999 Annual Conference approved budget. However, three factors combined to make reaching this goal difficult.
1. The retired clergy health insurance fund is in deficit. Collections from apportionments and fees have not kept pace with the rising cost of the retired clergy health insurance. The retired health insurance fund ended l998 with a $133,493 deficit. Even though more money was apportioned for this fund in l999 and premiums paid by the retired clergy increased, the fund is projected to have a deficit in l999. The following chart shows the activity of this fund.
Retired clergy Medicare/Medicaid Supplemental Insurance: 1999 2000 Total premiums paid $ 941,291 $ 988,944 Fee paid to GBOP&HB 922 922 Total cost 942,213 989,866 Retiree share of premium (313,764) (329,648) Interest income from GBOP&HB (467) ( 467) Net Expenditures $ 627,982 $ 659,751 REPORTS OF CONFERENCE ACTION 171
Apportionment askings (492,146) (690,000) Shortfall in Apportionments 22,398 31,400 Ending Deficit $ 158,234 $ 1,151 Cumulative Deficit $ 291,727 $ 292,878 Average number of retirees 696 713 Percent change 2.5% 2.5% Percent change in premium cost 15.7% 2.5%
2. The Conference Average Compensation (CAC) increased more than predictions based on historical trends. The CAC is calculated by the General Board of Pensions and Health Benefits and that figure is applied to a formula in our conference that then determines all the Conference Professional and Support Staff salaries. The estimated 2000 Budget included a 3% increase in the CAC. The actual increase was 4.58%.
3. A review by the Treasurer’s Office of the computing formulas used in many of our calculations showed an error in the way the CAC was applied to determine Conference staff salaries. Rule of Order VII.K. states that the compensation for members of the Administrative Cabinet “shall be 174% of the CAC less the housing factor.” The CAC is determined by the average compensation of full time clergy appointed to local churches in the Conference, plus 25% for housing. This means that the salary figure reported by the General Board of Pensions and Health Benefits (GBPHB) as the CAC is actually 125% of the cash compensation for clergy. Therefore, in order to determine the compensation figure to be used in the Conference salary formula, the 25% for housing allowance must be removed from the figure. In order to do that, the GBPHB reported CAC must be multiplied by 80% (125 x 0.80 = 100) However, the multiplier used has been 75% (125 x 0.75 = 93.75). Consequently, the CAC figure applied to the Conference compensation formula has been too low. The effect of this error is that compensation was at a lower rate than it should have been. By using the correct formula, the Administrative Cabinet salaries would increase by 7.3% in 2000. This increase is felt throughout the Conference budget, since all professional and support staff salaries are expressed as a percentage of the CAC formula.
Following is a chart that compares the CAC and Administrative Cabinet salary: Columns (1) the CAC in dollars, (2) the percent change in CAC, (3)the amount that should have been paid to the Administrative Cabinet if the rule of order had been applied correctly, (4) the actual cash salary paid to the Administrative Cabinet, (5) the percent change in actual salary (this amount affects the salaries paid to other professional and support staff of the conference), (6) as a point of reference, what the Administrative Cabinet’s salary would have been under the previous rule which was the average of the clergy compensation of the 26 highest compensating churches, and (7) the percent change in compensation using the former rule of order.

There are two mitigating factors that have affected the 2000 budget. First, the General Board of Pensions has set the past service liability funding for retired pastors at a lower amount for l999 than was originally projected. This allows the Conference Board of Pensions to offset a large share of their increased retired health insurance costs, but not all of the increase. Second, the apportionments assigned to our Conference by the General Church for 2000 are less than was projected. Even with these mitigating factors, the Annual Conference 2000 budget exceeds the estimated budget presented to and approved by the 1998 Annual Conference.
CFA believes it is in the best interest of the Annual Conference and the local congregations to maintain the budget total approved at the l998 Annual Conference. Therefore, CFA makes the 172 IOWA CONFERENCE - 1999
following recommendations:
Recommendation One: The Bishop establish a Conference Staff Compensation Task Force, with a CFA member as Chair, to review the reasons for the fluctuations in the percentage increases of CAC (from 1.5% to 9.1% and the disparity between the percentages and anecdotal evidence). In addition, the Task Force would recommend an equitable and competitive compensation method for determining the salaries for Professional and Support Staff of the Iowa Annual Conference. The report is to be made to the 2000 Annual Conference.
Recommendation Two: The Rule of Order VII K Compensation Formula be suspended for one year and the compensation percentage be set at 170% of the CAC less the housing factor instead of the current rule which is 174% of the CAC less housing factor.
CFA discussed this matter at length in three of its regular meetings and does not make this recommendation lightly. Following is a list of reasons for and against the 174% (Rule) and the 170% ( Suspended Rule) approach. The list is not exhaustive but it does represent some of CFA’s struggle and rationale.
Pros and Cons for Keeping the Current Formula at 174% PROS 1. It would allow for the Conference Professional and Support Staff salaries to make up for the extraordinarily low salary increases in some of the past years. 2. The higher salaries might improve recruitment conditions for some positions. 3. The formula would correct past mistakes in calculating compensation. 4. The Rule of Order would be applied correctly.
CONS 1. The higher salaries would exceed the goal of keeping the total budget increase for the year 2000 to 2.8% or less. 2. The increase in apportionments could cause additional stress on some local congregations who already find themselves in difficult financial situations because of commodity prices and other economic circumstances. 3. The higher salary increases would mean the Administrative Cabinet’s salaries would increase 7.3% ( to $57,831) for the year 2000. This is a significantly higher percentage than most local pastors received and is higher than commonly found in comparable secular professions.
Pros and Cons for Suspending the Rule and Using 170% for 2000 Compensation PROS 1. The 170% would allow the Conference Budget for 2000 to stay within the 2.8% increase as presented to and approved by the l998 Annual Conference. 2. The salary increase for the Administrative Cabinet would be 4.79% (to $56,500) which is comparable to the percentage increase of the CAC (4.6%) and more reflective of what is happening in other secular professions. 3. The 170% more closely reflects the way in which the Rule of Order has been applied. 4. The rule suspension would be for one year only to allow a task force to make a recommendation to the Annual Conference regarding compensation methods.
CONS 1. The salary increases would be lower than the Rules of Order currently require. 2. The 170% requires a suspension of the Rules of Order. 3. Staff morale may suffer because this approach does not completely correct the prior mistakes in the rule application.
Recommendation Three: CFA recommends the following budget to the Annual Conference as the working budget for the conference. REPORTS OF CONFERENCE ACTION 173

The housing exclusion may vary depending upon individual circumstances.
8. Discontinuation or Abandonment of Local Church Property shall proceed following these guidelines: a. The 1996 Book of Discipline ¶2548 outlines some of the procedures for discontinuation or abandonment. The district superintendent shall obtain and consider an opinion of legal counsel as to the existence of any reversion, possibility of reverter, right of reacquisition or similar restrictions to the benefit of any party. b. Consent for discontinuation or abandonment must be received from the following: 1) vote of local charge conference 2) consent of the presiding bishop 3) consent of the majority of the district superintendents 4) consent of the district board of church location and building c. When a local church is discontinued, the district superintendent shall select another United Methodist Church and transfer its members thereto, or to such other churches the members may select. d. If the property is sold, an appraisal or other reliable data should be obtained to aid in determining a fair sale price. It is recommended that information be forwarded to the chairperson of the Conference Board of Trustees for examination and for the purpose of creating a Deed of Transfer/Sale. e. The Disposition of Property shall occur as follows: 1) if the church is discontinued but a local board of trustees remains active the sale and/or other disposition of the property and the building contents shall be the responsibility of that active board of trustees in consultation with the district board of church location and building. 2) if the church does not have an active board of trustees the church shall be declared abandoned and the Conference Board of Trustees becomes responsible for the property. Its disposition shall be in conjunction with the district board of church location and building. 3) proceeds from the sale of the property shall be disbursed in the following order of priority: a) any outstanding local bills such as utility, telephone, salary etc. b) outstanding pension or health insurance direct bills c) any unpaid apportionments for the previous 10 years d) remaining amounts shall be disbursed at the discretion of the active local board of trustees or, if the church is abandoned, the amount shall be placed in the Conference Abandoned Church Fund to be disbursed by the Conference Board of Trustees. 4) All deeds, records and other official and legal papers, including the contents of the cornerstone of the church, shall be collected by the district superintendent and deposited for permanent safekeeping with the Commission on Archives and History. 5) Any gift, legacy, bequest, devise, annuity or other benefit to a pastoral charge or local church that accrues shall become the property of the Conference Board of Trustees. The trustees shall, in so far as possible, honor the original intent of the gift, legacy, bequest, devise, annuity or other benefit. 6) The district superintendent will be asked to present to the Annual Conference any resolution for a local church(es) to be declared abandoned and/or discontinued.
9. Apportionment Formula: a. The formula used to apportion the Conference Budget to the churches of the Conference shall be the four year average of local church operating expenses (excluding utilities), program expenses, and pastoral support. All grants, loans and advance special income given to mission congregations will be exempt from determining their fair share apportionment. The actual church apportionment is limited to a maximum 10% increase. b. Newly constituted congregations shall be apportioned ten percent of its fair share of all apportionments the first full calender year after it is chartered. Its apportionments shall be increased ten percent per year based on its fair share for the first four years. For the next four years its apportionments shall be increased by fifteen percent. This will enable new churches to reach full apportionments in eight years after the charter year. The four year average of operating expenses, program expenses, and pastoral support for each newly chartered church will be determined by using the immediately previous four year’s statistics available from the Conference statistical tables or, if four years of statistics are not available, the average will be that of the years 176 IOWA CONFERENCE - 1999
entered into the statistical tables. All grants, loans and advance special receipts are exempt from being included as money used for expenses in the four year average. Limitations found in 601.9a. are only in effect when a church has reached 100% apportionment. The above process of yearly stepping up the apportionment amounts does not preclude any congregation from contributing to the apportionments a larger amount than apportioned by the formula. To help each new church know what its full apportionments would be, the Conference Treasurer will report that amount to the church at the time when the new year’s apportionments are announced. c. In critical missional situations a team of persons from the Cabinet, Conference Council on Finance and Administration, and Parish Development shall be established to review the specific issues and develop a response that would encourage a church to develop a pattern of faithfulness to our connectional apportionments. This response, made prior to calculation of apportionments (Judicial Council Decision 818), may include a temporary, partial or full relief from apportionments on a year to year basis. The plan of action is intended to allow a church to maintain a positive pattern of growth. d. The calculation steps for the formula are as follows: 1) The four year average of operating expenses, program expenses, and pastoral support for each church is determined by using the immediately previous four years available from the Conference statistical tables. If a church fails to provide statistical table information at the time determined by the Conference Statistician, their apportionments shall increase the maximum 10%. 2) The Conference four year average is determined by adding together the amounts from all churches as computed from step 9.d.1) above. 3) The result from step 9.d.1) for each church is divided into the Conference four year average from step 9.d.2) yielding a percentage for each church. 4) The result from step 9.d.3) for each church is multiplied times each of the Conference funds resulting in the apportionment for each church. 5) The result from 9.d.4) may be limited as described in 9.a. above. e. Each district may apportion an amount within that district to support the ministry and programs of that district. The formula used by the district shall be determined by a vote of the District Conference upon recommendation of the District Council on Ministries. The district apportionment must be approved by CFA and by the Annual Conference. Each year the Conference Budget shall include each district’s formula and a listing of the programs to be supported by the district apportionment as a part of CFA’s budget report.

Fund development services will be offered through purchase of service agreements, with organizations using those services directly paying the Foundation for services rendered.
5. The recommendation for the 1999 Annual Conference concerning fiscal year 2000 is that some of the Foundation’s fund development services be purchased by the Conference to continue to provide the basic services mentioned above to all churches, individuals and institutions regardless of their ability to pay. (Payment for extended services would be the responsibility of the entity being served.)

650. Comprehensive Property and Liability Insurance Program for the Annual Conference and Local Churches. 1. The Board of Trustees of the Iowa Annual Conference recommends that the Iowa Annual Conference have a Master Insurance Plan for the local churches of the Conference and the Conference owned property. The Master Insurance Plan will be a property, casualty, liability and workers compensation policy sponsored by the Iowa Annual Conference to insure its churches, camps, foundation and Conference owned property and activities. The Conference Board of Trustees will select an agency and insurance company to be the plan administrator for the Conference. Local congregations may voluntarily join this insurance program.
The Plan Administrator will underwrite the conference program and it will be priced as a single entity. The Plan Administrator will: (1) allocate the premium to individual churches who voluntarily join the program, (2) the churches will pay their premiums to the Plan Administrator, (3) the churches will be issued standard evidence of coverage, and (4) the churches will report losses and claims directly to the insurer. REPORTS OF CONFERENCE ACTION 189
The benefits to local churches are expected to be: (1) a high standard of coverage tailored to the church and Conference needs, (2) premium savings, (3) insurer may not reject any church that wishes to participate, (4) broader coverage and higher limits available, and (5) opportunity to negotiate blanket guaranteed replacement cost coverage up to stated amount.
The benefits to the conference are expected to be: (1) a guarantee that all churches are insured to a reasonable standard, (2) help provide premium savings to local churches, and (3) providing better promotions of safety and loss prevention programs.
The Master Insurance Plan will be implemented in the following manner: (1) the agency chosen to write the coverage will collect the needed information from local churches, (2) the agency will provide educational/information meetings on the District level to explain the proposed program, and (3) once 50% of the churches of Iowa have agreed to join the plan the insurance will be effective.
Hopefully the process can be completed by January 1, 2000.
2. Churches that choose not to join the voluntary master insurance plan must submit to the Conference Board of Trustees a certificate of insurance certifying that their coverage meets minimum standards established by the Conference Board of Trustees.

909. Waivers of Participation in the Ministerial Pension Plan (MPP). The General Conference of the United Methodist Church amended Article III of the MPP to allow some itinerant clergy persons and local pastors whose participation in the MPP is mandated by 1996 The Book of Discipline to elect to waive their participation in the MPP. The Iowa Annual Conference hereby adopts the policy that a clergy person who is an ordained member and is appointed to less than full time service or a clergy person who is a part-time or student local pastor may voluntarily elect not to participate in the MPP providing:
(1) a Waiver of Participation form is signed by the participant and the participant’s spouse. (2) the Waiver of Participation form is filed with the GBOPHB, the district superintendent and the Conference Board of Pensions, Inc. (3) The request for waiver is approved by the Conference Board of Pensions, Inc.
The MPP is a benefit offered to all clergy under appointment in the Iowa Annual Conference and as such no United Methodist Church in Iowa may deny their clergy participation in this plan. A participant may not be coerced into signing the waiver and signing the waiver cannot be a condition of the clergy person serving that congregation.
The clergy who elects not to participate in the MPP understands that, because of their election, no contributions will be made to this plan on their behalf, nor will any benefit accrue for them. The waiver is binding on them and their heirs and on all other persons who might otherwise claim benefits because of their participation.
The waiver is effective on the date the “Waiver of Participation” is signed and shall remain in effect until the date the clergy elects to revoke this decision. Any revocation shall apply only to future contributions. The Conference or the local church will not be required to make retroactive contributions to cover any of the employment prior to the date that the waiver is revoked. A clergy may enroll in the plan only if all eligibility requirements are met as set forth in the plan document.
The Conference Board of Pension, Inc may choose not to honor this waiver if participation in the plan is necessary in order for the plan to satisfy the requirements of any section of the Internal Revenue Code.
910. Death Notices Fund. When a death occurs of an active or retired clergy, elder, local pastor, deacon, diaconal minister, spouse, or widow(er), a notice will be sent (e-mail/mailed) to all clergy, elder, local pastor, deacon, diaconal ministers, widow(er)s, and Conference staff.

IOWA ANNUAL CONFERENCE APPORTIONING BASIS
The basis for apportioning the 2000 Conference budget adopted by the Iowa Annual Conference at the 1999 Conference Session is as follows: The 4-year average of local church operating expense, program expense, and pastoral support, divided by the Conference totals of the same expenses. The actual church apportionment is limited to a maximum 10% increase. All grants, loans and advance special income given to mission congregations will be exempt from determining their fair share apportionment. Churches that are considered “new church starts” have an application of the above formula to be phased into reaching 100% of their share of each year’s apportionments.
NOTE: Following is an example only.
Example: Anywhere, Iowa United Methodist Church Using the 1998, 1997, 1996, and 1995 and statistical reports for the 2000 apportionments calculations, the following calculation process is used: (1) The local church operating expense, program expense, and pastoral support for each year is added together and averaged over the four years: 1998 $43,502 1997 59,613 1996 52,550 1995 43,742 Total $199,407 Average: $49,852
(2) The local church operating expenses, program expenses, and pastoral support for each year is added together for all churches in the Conference and averaged over the four years: 1998 $36,249,510 1997 34,528,104 1996 34,890,870 1995 33,217,008 $138,885,492 Average: $34,578,629
(3) Divide local church average by Conference average to obtain the 4-year average percent for the Anywhere, Iowa United Methodist Church:
$49,852 = .0014416925 $34,578,629
(4) The Anywhere, Iowa United Methodist Church 4-year average percent is multiplied by the apportionment totals:
Ministerial Support $5,668,108 x .0014416925 = $8,172 Administrative Ministries 3,105,029 x .0014416925 = 4,476 World Service/Conf. Benev. 4,415,851 x .0014416925 = 6,366 Other Ministries 275,648 x .0014416925 = 397 Total 1998 Apportionment $19,411
(5) The 2000 apportionment is compared to the 1999 apportionment. If the 2000 apportionment varies more than a 10% increase from the 1999 apportionment, the 2000 apportionment is 208 IOWA CONFERENCE - 1999
then limited to the 10% increase. If the 2000 apportionment is less than a 10% increase, the apportionment may be increased by an amount that would have been originally distributed to churches that would have had more than a 10% increase. Newly constituted congregations are exempt from this 10% limit.
Newly constituted congregations shall be apportioned ten percent of its fair share of all apportionments the first calender year after it is chartered. Its apportionments shall be increased ten percent per year based on its fair share for the first four years. For the next four years its apportionments shall be increased by fifteen percent. This will enable new churches to reach full apportionments in eight years after the charter year. The balance of their fair share of apportionments are distributed to churches that would have had less then a 10% increase.
The apportionment formula expressed as a mathematical equation is:
Variable Definitions:
LC1, LC2, LC3, LC4 = Previous Four Years Local Church Expenses as defined in step (1) above.
AC1, AC2, AC3, AC4 = Previous Four Years Total Local Church Expenses across the Conference as defined in step (2) above. CBF = Conference Budget Fund (Example: Ministerial Support) APPT = Local Church Apportionment PYAPPT = Prior Year Local Church Apportionment
Formula:
LC1 + LC2 + LC3 + LC4
4 X CBF = APPT
AC1 + AC2 + AC3 + AC4
4
Where APPT is limited by: APPT < 1.1 x PYAPPT
REPORT TO THE 1999 IOWA ANNUAL CONFERENCE DR. CHARLES W. SMITH CONFERENCE TREASURER AND STATISTICIAN Bishop Jordan, lay and clergy members of this Iowa Annual Conference, in l967 as an adult I stood before the congregation at First Methodist Church in New Hampton, Iowa and confessed my faith. I, also, pledged my loyalty to the church by my prayers, my presence, my gifts and my service. On that day, not only did I covenant with that congregation to be loyal, I also became a member of Christ’s universal church. I agreed to do all in my power to strengthen the ministries of the people called Methodist. As I was thinking about this report to the Annual Conference, I began to wonder how are we in Iowa doing in fulfilling our membership pledge of loyalty and support for our church. Have we faithfully participated in the ministries of our church by our prayers? Praying is something we cannot measure with numbers and graphs; however, I must believe that on December 31, l998 Iowa United Methodist’s had 202,110 members who through the year prayed for each other. This is a 640 member decrease from last year. I must hope that we are praying for the 2,479 members who have withdrawn or were removed by action of charge conference this past REPORTS OF CONFERENCE ACTION 209 year. This is 998 more people than last year who for whatever reason have been disconnected from our family of faith. We must have faith that we have prayed for the 4,851 people baptized last year a 1,179 increase and continue to pray for the confirmation enrollments of 3,735 a 126 decrease. Of course we also pray for a variety of other issues. Sometimes because of our own opinion our prayers may be contradictory; but, we must hope that at the very least we people called United Methodist lift each other to our God for guidance, understanding, forgiveness and blessings. Have we faithfully participated in the ministries of our church by our presence? On an average week 76,644 people have been present in worship. An increase of 276 people each week and incidently this is five out of the last six years there has been an increase in worship attendance. Church School enrollment is 75,962 a decrease of 1,031. A large portion of this decrease is attributed to the reduction of adult involvement as leaders and participants in the church school program. However, our attendance at short term and on going groups, other than Church School, increased by 1,605. Our statistics do not measure the ministry of presence we have in after school programs, United Methodist Youth, Women’s and Men’s groups and our participation in a variety of other ministries. Our presence is limited only by the creativity of our imagination. Have we faithfully participated in the ministry of our church by our gifts? The value of all our local church assets is $659,590,670 an increase of 8.86% since last year. In l998 Iowa United Methodists contributed to all causes for our church a total of $77,462,911 an increase of $3,422,723 or 4.6%. Of that total 25.9 % went to support local church debt retirement and building costs and improvements, 22.9% was spent on operating and program expense, 31.2% was used for pastoral support, 4.9% given as mission advance specials and mission projects and 15.1% was for apportionments. Our apportionments receipt for l998 was 91.4% an increase of 3%. The breakdown of categories are World Service and Conference Benevolence at 86.3% an increase of 5.6%, Other Ministries which include the Black College Fund, the African University and Mission Initiative was 87.6% an increase of 5.3%, Ministry of Administration 89.4% an increase of 2.6% and Ministerial Support at 95.9% an increase of .9%. For a more detailed accounting of the Treasurers office funds, I would refer you to the Treasurer’s Report found in your conference packet. Out of the 867 churches apportioned in l998, as of today 655 or 76% of them have paid 100% of their apportionments. I am often asked how many churches did not pay any apportionments in l998 and that number is only 14 churches. This is 5 less than in l997. Even with the few who did not pay or pay in full, with our gifts we have unlimited potential for ministry. Have we faithfully participated in the ministry of our church by our service? I think it would be impossible to measure the amount of hours and the number of people who provide service to their local church. What I do know is that each year congregations give to the district office a church officer’s list and that list which contains over 14,064 names. These are people who chair local church boards and agencies and the list does not name members of the committees. Combine that number with those who work in the church school, after school programs, music departments, volunteer in mission projects, local community work groups and the number of people who volunteer their time and energy to serve on conference agencies, we will discover our church has many thousands of people involved in service to and for our God. Have we faithfully participated in the ministry of the church by our prayers, our presence, our gifts and our service. When I look at the numbers I can only respond with a resounding “yes.” We United Methodists of Iowa can rejoice in the way we have fulfilled our membership vows as we have tried to do all in our power to strengthen our churches ministry. Your Conference treasurer’s office has tried throughout this year to provide a efficient, cost- effective service to you, our churches. In doing this we have assemble a staff of dedicated, qualified workers who are committed to the ministry and mission of the church. Without this staff my job would be impossible and our office would not be able to complete the multiple tasks you ask of us. Today let me introduce the extension of your local church finance and benefits staff:

Finally, on behalf of the Administrative Services Department I want to thank each of you. Without your efforts we could not fulfill our calling in ministry. Together we make the United Methodist Church of Iowa a vital and important presence for Christ as we do all in our power to increase our faith, confirm our hope and perfect our love for one another in our culture and in the world in which we live. Thank you for faithfully participating in this mission.
REPORT TO THE 1999 IOWA ANNUAL CONFERENCE MARGARET MEYER, CONFERENCE LAY LEADER LYNN RYON, DEAN OF THE CABINET LAITY/CABINET ADDRESS Bishop Jordan and members of the Iowa Annual Conference. In keeping with our theme, “Come as A Child,” we have chosen to use some excerpts from the poem, “Balloons Belong in Church” by Ann Weems from her book Reaching For Rainbows.* “I took to church one morning a happy four-year-old boy holding a bright blue string to which was attached his much-loved orange balloon with pink stripes... Certainly a thing of beauty, and, if not forever, at least a joy for a very important now. When later he met me at the door, clutching blue string, orange and pink bobbing behind him, he didn’t have to tell me something had gone wrong. “What’s the matter?” He wouldn’t tell me. “I bet they loved your balloon...” Out it came, then mocking the teacher’s voice” “We don’t bring balloons to church.” Then that little four-year-old, his lip a bit trembly, asked: Why aren’t balloons allowed in church? I thought God would like balloons.” What would it look like if balloons were allowed in church? We would certainly see creativity, more lay involvement, new forms or alternative styles of worship. We would see churches addressing the drug problem in their communities–finding ways to meet the needs of the young people–providing meeting space in a caring environment. And can’t you picture a church whose members commit to helping the homeless among them? Why not balloons? Why not wonder and joy, delight and playfulness when we come together in the church. “Come as a child,” is the invitation we were given to this Annual Conference session. “Come as a child, is the invitation Christ gives for life in his company. How do children come, but often with questions – -questions that innocently seek understanding; -questions that don’t understand limits to possibilities; -questions that do anticipate unlimited, unconditional bounty of God’s blessings; -questions that can terrorize the comfortable and complacent; -questions like “Why?” and “Why not?” and “What if?” Questions like these have been asked in our churches in Iowa this year. “Why do we say we are a church for all God’s people when not all God’s people can be with us?” The question was asked in Bloomfield, in Brooks, and in Pomeroy resulting in buildings made more accessible. “What do we mean all are welcome when not all can be here?” The question was asked in Des Moines at Trinity and in Villisca resulting in new non-traditional worship services on Saturday evening or Sunday morning. “What do we mean when we say God provides when we act like we don’t have enough?” The question was asked in places like Chariton and Ames at Collegiate and First resulting in multi- million dollar campaigns for building repairs and expansion. “Why can’t we increase the numbers of people singing songs of praise to God?” The question was asked in places like Urbandale Walnut Hills and Mingo and Farrar resulting in “Fill the Pew Sundays” and 3-color informational brochures. “Why can’t we?” is the question asked by churches like Huxley and in one year they became not REPORTS OF CONFERENCE ACTION 211 only able to give 100% missional support through their apportionments but go the extra miles to be a Rainbow Covenant church; and in Red Oak where in two years they have gone from no apportionments to 60% paid and continuing. All it takes is just one person of vision to ask “What if?” and the response of many “Why not?” and suddenly we find balloons in church! Let’s celebrate ...the person who breaks up the meaningless routines of life, who stops to reflect, to question, to doubt ...the person who isn’t afraid to feel, ...the person who refuses to play the game. Let’s celebrate ...anger at injustice ...tears for the mistreated, the hurt, the lonely, ...the community that cares – the church. Let’s celebrate ...the church! ...the times when we in the church made it, when we answered a cry, when we held to our warm and well-fed bodies a cold and lonely world. “Come as a child,” is the invitation to this Annual Conference session. “Come as a child,” is the invitation Christ gives for life in his realm. How do children come but powerless and vulnerable, but ones on whom Jesus said God’s favor is shown. In churches in Iowa questions are being asked, “What about the children?” resulting in new forms of ministry offering safe places, loving adults and nurturing activities for children to be themselves. In Fort Dodge, Riverside has partnered with the extension agency to provide after school programs for grade school children. In Sioux City, First has targeted children at risk for special ministry. In Fort Madison, First was the catalyst to bring the community together to address concerns about drugs and youth. Recognizing that others in the community, like children are without voice and powerless in the face of their needs churches are stepping forward into ministries with them. Slater, Huxley and Cambridge launched “Friends Helping Friends” connecting member families with single parents and social service clients to mentor parenting and family life skills. Sidney initiated “Circle of Care” for people with special health care needs and to give support to primary care givers. In Council Bluffs, Broadway a Shalom Zone initiative organized a neighborhood watch. In Sioux City, Grace sponsored a regional conversation on the issues in the work place and worker rights. When we ask like a child “why not in our church?” the results invite childlike celebration. This year many of our churches like Carroll have seen an increase in membership and worship; a number of our churches like Belmond have added staff or like DeSoto started new Sunday School classes. Many of our churches have participated in the outpourings of generosity that have made possible ministries of compassion to children and others in need through our Ingathering, United Methodist Women, Hope for the Children of Africa and U.M.C.O.R. “The Scriptures say there is a time to laugh and a time to weep. It’s not hard to see the reasons for crying in a world where hatred is so manifest. But it is also not hard to see the reasons for laughter in a world where God’s love is even more manifest.” Laity and clergy of the Iowa Annual Conference, as we move into the 21st century, we challenge each of you to claim your call to be in ministry – in the world, in your community, in your workplace, in your church, in your home. Dare to be people of vision, agents of change, with courage to face new challenges. Dare to offer your own very unique gifts to God. Let the gospel come alive within you. Find new ways to share the good news. Build lives of faithfulness to God’s will, walking in the way God sets before you, knowing God has high expectations for each one of God’s children. Laity and clergy if you will accept the challenge, hold your hands high. Let’s celebrate!
“Life is a celebration, an affirmation of God’s love. Life is distributing more balloons. For God so loved the world... 212 IOWA CONFERENCE - 1999
Surely that is cause for joy. Surely we should celebrate!” Where did we ever get the idea that balloons don’t belong in church? Come as a Child!

1 2 I. PURPOSE AND STRUCTURE 3 A. Purpose 4 In Genesis, Chapters 1 to 5, God is revealed as Creator and Sustainer of the 5 Universe. Jesus said, “The Spirit of the Lord is upon me, because He has anointed me 6 to preach the Good News to the poor. He has sent me to proclaim release to the 7 captives and recovering of sight to the blind, to set at liberty those who are oppressed, 8 to proclaim the acceptable year of the Lord.” Paul said, “You are the Body of Christ.” 9 These Biblical directives mandate a concern for the physical, spiritual, and mental 10 wholeness of each person and all people and the environment in which they live. 11 Humankind as co-creator has been given responsibility for the constructive use of all 12 that is and will be. The Church is the community of all true believers under the Lordship 13 of Christ. It is one holy, apostolic, and catholic. It is the redemptive fellowship in which 14 the Word of God is preached by persons divinely called; and, the sacraments are duly 15 administered according to Christ’s own appointment. Under the discipline of the Holy 16 Spirit, the Church exists to provide an avenue for worship, an evangelistic spirit for the 17 redemption of the world, and, the edification of believers through education and a social 18 consciousness. 19 The United Methodist Church is to be a part of the body of Christ proclaiming God 20 as Creator, Sustainer and Redeemer as revealed in scripture in the person of Jesus 21 Christ extending the love, grace and power of God in the world. It requires a denomina- 22 tional and ecumenical strategy for action in the universe. 214 I.B IOWA CONFERENCE - 1999
1 B. Structure 2 1. The Iowa Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church is structured to 3 carry out the purpose of the Church, as stated above, to persons and society. 4 2. The Annual Conference and the district structure relates The United Methodist 5 Church to the congregations and to the direct ministries of the Annual Conference 6 through the conference and district agencies. 7 3. Our structure enables us to communicate and work with all portions of Christ’s 8 Church and with the religious community in general. 9 4. Districts, congregations, institutions and agencies are responsible for defining 10 their own objectives, goals and strategies in line with the conference purpose. 11 5. The Bishop, the Conference Council on Ministries Director, and the District 12 Superintendents, pastors and lay persons are programming leaders and 13 administrators. Their responsibilities include working with pastors, congregations, 14 districts and the Annual Conference for the fulfillment of the purpose. 15 6. The Annual Conference Council on Ministries is the basic Conference program 16 planning and coordinating organization. The Council on Ministries through staff 17 members of the council, boards, agencies and task forces, provides resources in 18 program areas throughout the Annual Conference. 19 7. The Council on Finance and Administration is the basic financial body of the 20 Iowa Annual Conference. It develops, maintains and administers a comprehensive 21 and coordinated plan of fiscal policies, procedures and management services for 22 the Annual Conference. 23 8. The structure will enable the effective utilization of the abilities of all persons in 24 the church. 25 II. SESSIONS 26 A.

When all have spoken who desire to do so, or when (and after) the previous 7 question has been ordered, the maker of the motion shall be entitled to speak, 8 then the chairperson and/or duly authorized member or members presenting the 9 committee’s report shall be entitled to speak before the vote is taken. 10 M. Previous Question. When any member moves the previous question (that is, that 11 the vote be now taken on the motion or motions pending), he/she shall indicate to what 12 he/she intends it to apply, if any secondary motion or motions are also pending. If 13 he/she does not so indicate, it shall be regarded as applying only to the immediately 14 pending question. This motion shall be taken without debate, and shall require a two- 15 thirds vote of those present and voting for its adoption; and if it is adopted, the vote shall 16 be taken on the motion or motions to which it applies without further debate. 17 N. Division of Question. Before a vote is taken any member shall have the right to call 18 for division of any question, if it is subject to such division as he/she indicates.

1 therefore may be offered by any member moving that the same be substituted for the 2 report, resolution, or amendment under consideration. This substitute shall be an 3 alternative to what is before the house. 4 The Conference shall then proceed: 5 -first to perfect the original report or resolution, including consideration and action 6 upon any amendments which shall be offered to it. 7 -the same perfecting process shall then be followed with respect to the substitute. 8 The questions shall then be put: 9 -first on the motion to substitute 10 -followed by the motion to adopt the report or resolution; 11 provided, however, that the motion for the previous question shall not be in order 12 on 13 -the adoption of the report or recommendation 14 -or on making the proposed substitution 15 until opportunity has been given for at least two members to speak on each side 16 of the question of substitution or adoption. 17 S. Reconsideration. A motion to reconsider an action of the Conference shall be in 18 order at any time if offered by a member who voted with the prevailing side. If the motion 19 proposed to be reconsidered is non-debatable, the motion to reconsider may not be 20 debated. 21 T. Suspension of Rules. Any of these Rules of Order and Standing Rules may be 22 suspended for the immediate business under consideration by a two-thirds majority 23 vote. 24 U. Amendments. The Plan of Organization, Rules of Order and Standing Rules may 25 be amended at any session of the Annual Conference by a vote of two-thirds of 26 members present and voting, providing that one day’s notice has been given and the 27 proposed change or amendment has been submitted in writing, and a report has been 28 given thereon by the Committee on Rules of Order. 29 V.

PART II PERTAINING TO ORDAINED MINISTERS AND LOCAL PASTORS
17. Are all the clergy members of the conference blameless in their life and official administration (¶¶604.4, 605.6)?
Yes, attested to by means of signed statements from the District Superintendents submitted to the Board of Ordained Ministry; and by the Bishop, attesting to the conduct of the District Superintendents. Your bishop and superintendents take very seriously the call to moral excellence in the lives of pastors. We gladly offer our signatures to answer this question, knowing that only by the grace of God can any of us be blameless in our life and official administration. Obviously, we make no judgment about the moral character of pastors who are involved in supervisory correction or involved in judicial or administrative complaint processes.
