  • Methodists in Search of Unity Amidst Division
    Methodists in Search of Unity amidst Division: Considering the Values and Costs of Unity and Separation in the Face of Two Moral Crises: Slavery and Sexual Orientation [Presented at the Oxford Institute for Methodist Studies, August 2007.] By Bruce W. Robbins [Author’s Note: This paper will undergo revision in the fall of 2007. The revised copy will be posted on the Oxford Institute website when completed.] Introduction For the last decade and more, The United Methodist Church (UMC) has been facing conflict caused by contrasting views of a moral issue: whether or not persons who are Lesbian, Gay, Bisexual or Transgender (LGBT)1 should be welcomed as others into the UMC as lay members or as clergy. The debate has been distressing to all in the church , for many because it has prevented debate and action on many of the other issues associated with Christian ministry. During the last four years, the debate has evolved into intense discussion of ecclesiological issues and has led some members to question the value of maintaining unity within the UMC, or to wonder whether it would be better and, perhaps, more faithful to separate into different institutional structures. Nearly two centuries ago, the church faced another major divide over a moral issue- slavery. Alongside many differences between the two historical contexts, there are also similarities that church members faced, similarities that can be seen through the debates and actions within the annual and general conferences of the church. The slavery debates in the 1830s and 40s culminated in several splits in Methodism, the largest of which, in 1844, saw no reunion until ninety-five years had passed.

Rutgers School of Law–Newark Immigrant Rights Clinic The Clinical Program at Rutgers School of Law–Newark is designed to provide law students the opportunity to work on actual cases and projects and to learn essential lawyering skills, substantive and procedural law, professional values, and applied legal ethics. The program is one of few free legal service providers in New Jersey. All of the legal clinics help fill large voids in service coverage for low-income and underrepresented persons and communities throughout Newark and the greater New Jersey area. Launched in January 2012, the Immigrant Rights Clinic (IRC) at Rutgers School of Law–Newark serves the local and national immigrant population through a combination of individual client representation and broader advocacy projects. Under the supervision of Professor Anjum Gupta, students in the IRC represent immigrants seeking various forms of relief from removal, including asylum; withholding of removal; relief under the Convention Against Torture; protection for victims of human trafficking; protection for battered immigrants; protection for victims of certain types of crimes; protection for abused, abandoned, or neglected immigrant children; and cancellation of removal. Students also engage in broader advocacy projects on behalf of organizational clients, primarily immigrant rights organizations. This report is the result of one such project. Working under the supervision of Professor Gupta, and on behalf of the American Friends Service Committee, the following law students assumed primary responsibility for the production of this report: Nicole D. Finnie, Roman Guzik, and Jennifer J. Pinales. b. American Friends Service Committee Immigrant Rights Program The American Friends Service Committee (AFSC) is a Quaker organization that has worked for over 90 years to uphold human dignity and respect for the rights of all persons.
