Annual Conference Theme for 2018 The theme for annual conference for the 2017-2020 quadrennium is ‘Do This and You Will Live!’

In 2018 we considered Luke 10:25-28 where the young lawyer asks Jesus what he must do to inherit eternal life. “We’ll ask ourselves and God, Do what? Or, what does love look like?,” shared Bishop Elaine JW Stanovsky, in her invitation to conference members.

The colored quadrants in our logo symbolize the four demands to love God with all of our heart, being, strength, and mind. “God is the center of the circle, and the radii indicate the different ways human beings live,” explains Stanovsky. As we move closer to God, we also move closer to others. As we intentionally move closer to our neighbors, we also move closer to God.

Abbreviations: UMC - United Methodist Church; PNWAC - Pacific Northwest Annual Conference; PROCEEDINGS PCH - Pre-Conference Handbook; BAC - Business of the Annual Conference; GNW – Greater Northwest (our Episcopal Area). Names of ordained clergy are printed in italics. Friday, June 22, 2018, 8:30 a.m. Worship and Episcopal Address Welcome. Connie McCloud, a Puyallup Tribal elder and Culture Director, welcomed the Conference to the land of the Puyallup Tribe with a song of blessing. Bishop Stanovsky thanked her for the honor of welcoming us. Spoken Word. Katy Shedlock offered a spoken word performance, “Do What?” based in the Conference’s theme. Each service of worship for the session is rooted in the text of Luke 10:25-37, the parable of the Good Samaritan. Episcopal Address. Bishop Elaine JW Stanovsky asked, “What does Love look like?” She spoke of the state of the church in this transitional time, in which we need the reminder “that the Christian faith really is an alternative world view, and the church really must provide space for people to lay down their weapons and their armor and learn again and anew how to love one another.” As a part of her address, she invited Donna Pritchard, a member of the Commission on the Way Forward, to report on the work of the Commission. She outlined the three proposals which the Commission is forwarding to GC2019, which she labeled the Con- nectional Conferences Model, the Traditionalist Model (which was not developed by the Commission), and the model being recommended by the Council of Bishops, the One Church Model. Bishop Stanovsky asked, “What if God were using our differences to stretch us to understand the fullness of God’s vision and plan for humankind?” She offered the image of walking the labyrinth as a metaphor of the course ahead. The way is long and winding, but United Methodists in the PNW will find a way for LGBTQ people to be fully part of God’s realm. “Is it possible to move forward as one Annual Conference with hearts at peace, so no one is forced to break relationship or compromise conscience?” The coming year will be a crossover year for us: rather than waiting for General Conference 2019 to act, we will live a year of missional engagement. “The United Methodist Church may be stuck right now, but God is not stuck!” We will turn our attention to following God out into the neighborhood. Wesley said that love incites us to “do good in every possible kind, and in every possible degree, to all.” Why would we wait for General Conference? Offering. Nancy Tam Davis introduced the offering, which will support student scholarships to Africa University. Break

To bring about sustainable change in any group, including the Church, there’s a need to move from one mindset to another.

Announcements. Secretary Wes Stanton made announcements. Prayer. Jim Truitt offered a closing prayer. Anatomy of Peace. In the second teaching session, Brian Brown reviewed the inward mindset, a “heart at war,” “being in the box,” being in the flesh,” contrasting it with the outward mindset, a “heart at peace.” With the inward mindset, we treat others as obsta- cles, vehicles of our aims, or irrelevant. With the outward “heart at peace” mindset, God’s synergy takes place, the whole is greater than the sum of the parts, and we treat others as people. An inward mindset invites others’ collusion in the very behavior we may com- plain about. Ballot Results. The first ballots’ results were announced. There were no elections. Prayer. Lay Leader Nancy Tam Davis offered prayer. Small Groups. Dinner

Friday, June 22, 2018, Evening. The evening was given to a Ministry Fair in the entry area of the Showplex Center, and to a single Focus Session to consider the legislative proposals related to Administrative Support.

PROCEEDINGS Conference. Strategy for 2020 Episcopacy. Shane Moore explained the process of candidacy for the episcopacy, announcing the two bishops in the Western Jurisdiction who will reach mandatory retirement age. Those who think they might be called to the work of a Bishop are invited to give the coming year to discernment. Although nominations for the episcopacy are restricted by Discipline to the 2020 Annual Conference session, people will be invited to declare their interest at AC 2019. Anatomy of Peace. Brian Brown continued instructing the Conference in the two mind- sets we can choose. How can we turn from an inward mindset to an outward one? The “Influence Pyramid” can help us turn from a place of war to a place of peace. It’s more important to spend our time helping things go right, than reacting to things that go wrong. From bottom to top, the Influence Pyramid can be seen as a series of steps toward resolution. The first four levels have to do with helping things to go right: 1. Improve our own mindset, with the Spirit’s help. Get out of the box. 2. Once our heart is at peace, we can build relationships with the person or group – and with those who influence that person or group. Discern the imago dei in the other. 3. Listen and learn. 4. Teach and communicate. 5. The “top” level of the pyramid is “Correct.” This one is about dealing with things that go wrong, if it’s needed. If correcting (or any step) doesn’t work, step back to the previous level. With an outward mindset, a heart at peace, we work at helping things go right. With an inward mindset, we invert how much energy we put into the various levels, and mostly try to correct, when we haven’t done the more basic work. Introductions. Bishop Stanovsky introduced Curtis Brown, the Western Jurisdictional Regional Strategist of Path 1, Paula Whitbeck, of Wespath, Jenny Phillips, a member of PNWAC working with the General Board of Global Ministries, and Tim Overton-Harris, dean of the Cabinet in Oregon-Idaho. 8 2018 PNWAC DAILY PROCEEDINGS H-9 Ballot Results.

Lyda Pierce, Coordinator of Hispanic / Latino Ministries, reminded us that most of us are immigrants or the descendants of immigrants, and that when

the Church says “we,” we are considering people through God’s eyes, not those of any PROCEEDINGS nation. The family separation crisis at the border calls for the Church’s response. On Sun- day, June 24, a 6 a.m. service of Morning Prayer For Our Neighbors will be held just outside the SeaTac federal detention center, where some who have come seeking asylum, and who have had their children taken from them, are incarcerated.

Bishop Stanovsky announced that Jenny Smith has left the session to be with her family after the death of her ten-month-old nephew Grayson in Ohio. She led prayer in thanks for Grayson’s life, and in intercession for the extended family. Report from the GNW Innovation & Vitality Team. Bill Gibson, Director of Innovation for a New Church, began with a video from the I&V Team, representing the mission field of the PNW, in which there are more people outside of Christian community than inside it. As the landscape shifts, as political and theological arguments become toxic, we recognize the necessary practices of Innovation, Multi- plication, and Inclusion. There are 38 new projects in the Greater Northwest Area, 23 in the PNW Conference alone, not counting those chartered as official churches. Some examples: The Ravenna Collaboratory models a partnering of church & community, also establishing needed revenue streams. Marysville UMC staff & laity stepped out after Advent season of prayer, asking, “What if MUMC birthed 10 new expressions of church over the next 30 years?” First UMC of Canada is multiplying, as it begins the Squamish Fellowship. The South Sound UM Cooperative is bringing together several Thurston County churches and new beginnings. There’s new work in Alaska, and in Ore- 13 H-14 DAILY PROCEEDINGS 2018 PNWAC gon-Idaho. Team members include: Leroy Barber, Director of Innovation for an Engaged Church, as “chief disruptor” on the team, coming from a background of asset-based community development; Shalom Agtarap, Associate Director of Innovation for a New Church; Kristina Gonzalez, Director of Innovation for an Inclusive Church. Kristina Gonzalez spoke on Common Ground, the teaching of Galatians 3 that all are one in Christ Jesus and noting with George Yancey that this text is promoting cultural acceptance rather than simply individual acceptance. PNW and the Western Jurisdiction have led the church in the work of cultural competence and justice, and yet there is much more to do. Shalom Agtarap talked of the practice of spending more time outside the church than inside it, creating community one interaction at a time, practicing one-to-one meetings with neighbors, learning needs and issues of those whom our neighbors love. Organizing

PROCEEDINGS is primarily a work of listening. Leroy Barber announced that revival is coming! In fact, revival is here! Where? Go to http://ordinaryrevivals.org, and find a series of events that help us ask, “Who is our neighbor?” “What gifts do our neighbors have? How do we work with them, rather than for them?” “How is God at work in the community?” “How do we join in what God is doing?” “The new altar-call is: Get to know your neighbor.” Bishop Stanovsky shared that the team can’t do it all, but the synergy of these four people, along with the superintendents, and all the deployed leaders in the churches, can help very good things to happen. Eric Walker asked how this can be a true revival, not just a flash-in-the-pan.Bishop Stanovsky responded that the team was put together slowly, and the crossover year idea can be a “vacuum” in which the Spirit can help us fill in the course ahead – only one or two steps at a time, when we cannot see very far ahead. David Valera introduced Kathy Neary, who will serve in a newly established role as Transitional Ministry Developer, leading conversations with small churches with limited resources. The job is to help very small churches figure out what God is calling them to do and to be, walking with them in discerning God’s will, among the many available options for small churches. Announcements. Secretary Wes Stanton gave several announcements. The Bishop’s Hymn. The conference sang the Bishop’s Hymn. Prayer & Blessing. Jen Stuart offered a blessing at the close of the session. Dinner

Steeb PROCEEDINGS • Certified Lay Minister: Beryl Eugene Curtis • Laity in the life of the conference: Eugene Joseph Bratt, Lanora Marie Roper Cal- lahan, Richard Pentecost Ferguson, Robin Kerry Frisbie Galvin, Robert William Stevens, Mary Ellen Hartle Tapp, Elizabeth Barta Widel. • Bishops and spouses of bishops who have died over the year: Bishops John Wesley Hardt, Ruediger R. Minor, and L. Bevel III; Mrs. Angelina Nacpil, Mrs. Dorothy Ann Stricklin Lee, Mrs. Jean Stevens Stockton, and Mrs. Lucile Wheatley. The Conference remembered with thanksgiving the congregations which discontinued this year: Garfield UMC, Wild Rose UMC, and Yakima: Westpark UMC. The sermon, “Fully Paid,” was offered by L. Daniel Foster. Building from the quadrennium’s Gospel theme, “Do this and you shall live,” and the whole parable of the Good Samaritan, Luke 10:25-37, we in our grief were put by the roadside, left for near-dead in our grief. Help is available, but not necessarily from the sources we would expect. The anti-hero, the Samaritan, pays the price of the victim’s care in full, and promises to pay more as needed. As we are reminded in the hymn, “I Was There to Hear Your Borning Cry,” God is with us throughout the whole of our lives, and “when the evening gently closes in” God is there for God’s beloved with “just one more surprise,” of wonder. The Conference gave an offering for the Place at the Table campaign to build a new dining hall at Lazy F Camp and Retreat Center. Bishop Stanovsky was celebrant as the Conference shared in Communion.

Sunday, June 24, 2018, 10:30 a.m. Service of Commissioning and Ordination. Rev. Leroy Barber, GNW Director of Innovation for an Engaged Church preached from the theme text from Luke 10:25-37, the parable of the Good Samaritan. He invited us to disrupt our patterns that prevent us from engagement with those on the margins. God goes to the margins to pick leaders, even if we don’t. We must be willing to disrupt our routines, disrupt our comfort, disrupt our resource plans, disrupt our privilege, for the other. With Dr. King, we must one day come to see that the whole Jericho Road must be transformed, so that people aren’t beaten and robbed on life’s highway. Those being commissioned and ordained, and the rest of the Conference, were charged to “Go forth and disrupt.” The offering was given in support of Central Washington Justice for Our Neighbors (CWJFON).

PETITION #1 (Adopted Saturday, June 23, 2018) ELECTION OF CONFERENCE BOARD OF GLOBAL MINISTRIES SECRETARY Resolved: The Board of Global Ministries recommends the election of Marilyn Reid as Conference Secretary of Global Ministries. Lynn Magnuson, Chair Affirmed by the Conference Board of Global Ministries ACTIONS PETITION #2 (Adopted Saturday, June 23, 2018) UMVIM AWARENESS SUNDAY Be it resolved: United Methodist Volunteers in Mission (UMVIM) Awareness Sun- day shall be observed annually on the second Sunday of September. An offering may be received and given to support the programs of the Western Jurisdic- tion (WJ) through the Advance (the Advance for the WJ is 901 463). Promotional and local church resources will be available through the Western Jurisdiction UMVIM program and Global Missions. (Book of Discipline ¶265.5) Explanation: At General Conference in 2016, legislation was approved in support of the United Methodist Volunteers in Mission program at the Jurisdiction level to support the UMVIM and Disaster Programs of the annual conferences. UMVIM Awareness Sunday calls the church to celebrate those who have served in short-term missions, the partnerships that have been developed, and the work of UMVIM throughout the world. In the Western Jurisdiction, the UMVIM Annual Conference Coordinators are volunteers with paid personnel only at the Western Jurisdiction UMVIM office. The funds gathered on this Sunday would be used to further resource and train our Volunteer Conference Coordinators and others. The purpose of the jurisdictional volunteer-in-mission coordinator is to provide resources and support for the coordination of volunteers, in collaboration with annual conference UMVIM and Disaster Response Coordinators within their jurisdiction and the Global Ministries Missions Volunteer Office. The jurisdictional UMVIM Coordinator may support the Disaster Response Minis- tries including Early Response teams in collaboration with UMCOR. (Book of Discipline ¶538) Support of the UMVIM program by the local churches is important for the sustainability of this vital ministry of the church. Using UMVIM Awareness Sunday will bring increased awareness of how local church and annual conference can both take part in and use UMVIM’s resources to support and expand their mission and ministries within their communities, nationally, and internationally.

45 J-2 ACTIONS 2018 PNWAC PETITION #3 (Adopted as amended Saturday, June 23, 2018) PHILIPPINES: DEMOCRATIC GOVERNANCE, HUMAN RIGHTS AND THE PEACE PROCESS Resolved that the 2018 Pacific Northwest Annual Conference session of the UMC expresses solidarity with the United Methodist churches and the National Council of Churches in the Philippines as well as with all peoples crying in common for justice and peace in the wake of the spate of harassments and assassinations, and Further resolved that a copy of this resolution be sent to the Philippine Central Conference Council of Bishops, and Further resolved that, no later than September 1, 2018, the Secretary of the Pacif- ic Northwest Annual Conference submit a copy of this resolution to the Senators from Washington and Idaho and the Philippine Ambassador to the US, denouncing the extrajudicial killings and expressing unconditional support for human rights advocates and religious leaders working in the Philippines, as well as calling on them to inquire into actions being taken by the Philippine government in connection with human rights violations with a special emphasis on murdered human rights advocates and religious leaders. Explanatory Statement: The 2016 UMC General Conference adopted Resolution

ACTIONS #6118 titled Philippines: Democratic Governance, Human Rights and the Peace Process which calls on the United Methodist Church at all levels to work with Philippine annual conferences, ecumenical bodies, and nongovernmental organizations in joint undertak- ings to address the peace and human rights situation in the Philippines. On December 11, 2017, the Philippine Central Conference Board of Church and So- ciety warned that anybody whom the military considers an enemy of the state is without protection and that the situation is ripe for open State terrorism. On May 23, 2017, President Duterte declared martial law throughout the whole island of Mindanao when the Maute group attacked the city of Marawi, which despite statements from the Philippine military that they had successfully defeated the Maute group, has been extended until December 2018 under claims of continued threat of rebel- lion. The sharp rise in killings both extrajudicial killings in line with the governments counter-insurgency program and killings in the name of the drug war, forced evacuations, and militarization of communities in the Philippines, are exhibiting a disturbing and chilling pattern of impunity among wielders of power and authority. Impunity has led to wanton violation of human rights, the desecration of human lives and widespread disre- gard for human dignity. The March 3, 2017 update of the 2016 US State Department Country report ac- knowledged that the human rights problem in the Philippines has increased sharply over the past year. It is not hard to imagine the appearance of an open season on peace with justice advocates including church workers and human rights workers in the Philippines. Within the days of each other in late 2017, a human rights worker, a Catholic priest, a United Church of Christ Philippines lay pastor and Protestant pastor were all victims of extrajudicial killings. While clergy and laity alike have not been spared but are targets of harassment and repression, on February 22nd, 2018, following an International Solidarity mission 2 United Methodist Missionaries, were held by police and detained under suspi- cions of being “terrorist with ISIS”. The national wide human rights group Karapatan say that they have documented 126 extrajudicial killings as part of the Philippine governments counter-insurgency program 46 2018 PNWAC ACTIONS J-3 and at least 14,000 victims killed in the Philippine governments war on drugs from July 1, 2016 when Duerte took office until the end of 2017. On February 24, 2018, the Philippine Central Conference Board of Church and So- ciety addressed these human rights violations by declaring that it is the responsibility of governments to protect human rights, including the right to conduct independent inves- tigations into reports of human rights abuses, and the right of peoples and individuals to international solidarity.

PETITION #EE-2 BOARD OF PENSIONS – RECOMMENDATIONS PAST SERVICE PENSION RATE (Adopted Saturday, June 23, 2018)

Resolved: that effective January 1, 2019, the Ministerial Pension Rate and the Lo- cal Pastors Pension Rate shall be $756 and that Supplement One to the Clergy Retirement Security Program be so amended. Explanation: Supplement One to CRSP is the name of Addendum A to MPP (ministerial pension plan) and CPP (comprehensive protection plan) that was originally adopted by the 1981 session of this Annual Conference (1981 Journal, page 178), and all other provisions of Supplement One/Addendum A continue as previously adopted. This new pension rate represents an increase of 2% over the 2018 rate. Plan rules don’t require any increase in the past service rate. The conference board of pensions recognizes the disparity of pension benefits between more recent retirees and those that have been retired for many years. 48 2018 PNWAC ACTIONS J-5 PETITION #EE-3 RETIREMENT ANNUITY RESPONSIBILITY (Adopted Saturday, June 23, 2018)

NEW PETITION #1 (Adopted Sunday, June 24, 2018) SUPPORT FOR THE PEOPLE’S CAMPAIGN Resolved: that the Pacific Northwest Annual Conference of the United Methodist

ACTIONS Church issue a press release supporting the Poor People’s Campaign: A National Call for Moral Revival; and that the Conference encourage our congregations to study the Poor People’s Campaign and become informed on the issues raised by the campaign: race, poverty, homelessness, human suffering, environmental destruction and discrimination. Explanation: 2018 is the 50th anniversary of the Poor People’s Campaign of 1968 begun by The Reverend Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr. and the Souther Christian Lead- ership Conference (SCLC). The 1968 Campaign reflected the awareness that there could be no racial justice without economic justice. In April 1968, King was murdered when he traveled to Memphis, TN to be in solidarity with the striking sanitation workers. Under Ralph Abernathy, SCLC continued with the Campaign. The Campaign has some success, including the Head Start program - starting in Mississippi and Alabama. The original Poor People’s Campaign was defeated by many forces. In 2018, using what has been learned in 50 years about successful organizing, the Campaign seeks to bring real progress in justice. Specific demands include: • the immediate full restoration and expansion of the Voting Rights Act • a clear and just immigration system • equity in education, ensuring every child receives a high-quality, well-funded, diverse public education • public infrastructure projects and sustainable, community-based and controlled economic initiatives that target poor urban and rural communities • that the wealthy and corporations pay their fair share of our country’s urgent needs • an end to mass incarceration and the continuing inequalities for black, brown and poor white people within the criminal justice system • a fully funded public water and sanitation infrastructure that keeps these utilities and serve under public control and that prioritize poor, rural and Native communities that have been harmed by polluting and extractive industries • the protection of public lands and the immediate cessation of opening up public lands for polluting and extractive industries • an end to military aggression and war-mongering • a stop to the privatization of the military budget and any increase in public spending 52 2018 PNWAC ACTIONS J-9 • that all policies and budgets are based on the five key principles of the U.S. Constitu- tion: Establishing Justice, Ensuring Domestic Tranquility, Providing for the Common Defense, Promoting the General Welfare and Securing the Blessings of Liberty to ourselves and our posterity

tion violations ACTIONS 2.

INLAND DISTRICT As I complete my second year, I continue to be grateful for your grace as we live into the future with both uncertainty and hope! During our fall charge conference season, and especially with the Table Talks this past spring, I am keenly aware of the diversity of opinion within every congregation and across our district and conference. We don’t exactly know what will come, but I have been assuring folks of two things: things will be different after 2019/2020, and God will still be active in our world! Our District continues to nurture the new church starts launched a year ago, and both are thriving and developing. Planters Katy Shedlock (launching “The Studio” multisite project out of Audubon Park UMC in Spokane) and Steve Michael (launching “Commu- nity Northwest Ministries” multisite project out of Community UMC in Coeur d'Alene) continue to carve out these “new places for new people” in our area. We are always

looking to develop new future possibilities within our District, so keep me apprised of D.S. REPORTS the dreams God is speaking into your communities of faith. There were a number of pastoral movements as this appointive year comes to an end. We said a fond fare-well to those leaving our District via retirement: Barbara Caviezel, Spokane: Moran and John Hunsberger (Ritzville: Trinity) In addition, Brent Dehlbom moved midyear to South Carolina (vacating Sandpoint ID) in September and Bonners Ferry (ID) in December), and TJ Parker (lay person assigned to the Clark Fork Parish (ID)) moved in June to Nebraska. We also said goodbye to Lucas Boomsma after one short year as his training as an intentional interim pastor is needed in Connell. Bill Schillereff will be moving within the bounds of the district from Wallace-Burke UMC to serve the Clark Fork Parish (which includes Noxon and Heron, MT of the Yellowstone Conference).Come July, we will welcome Cody Natland from the Puget Sound District to serve Spokane: Moran, Wesley Stanton from the Tacoma District to serve Ritzville: Trinity, and Jeung Hee Kim from the Tacoma District to serve Davenport: Edwall. Moving from outside the PNW Conference, Ken Hagler (an ordained Elder in the N. Georgia Conference) will move here to serve Bonners Ferry ID, and Pearl Whistler (a retired licensed local pastor from the Oregon-Idaho Conference) will move here to serve Sandpoint ID. As far as churches go, we did say goodbye and celebrate the witnesses of two congregations this year: Wild Rose UMC after 129 years of ministry, and Garfield UMC after 137 years of ministry. Please see their history in another part of this journal. In addition to closures, we had two congregations (Pomeroy (WA) and Wallace-Burke (ID)) take the courageous step of becoming “lay-led” congregations, which in essence means they develop a covenant about who will take care of the various responsibilities in the life of the church, but we are not appointing or assigning pastors there. My encouragement is to continue to build relationships with your whole community, so we can be in touch with the work the Holy Spirit is already up to in the world. Let me know if I can be a help or resource in any way!

Respectfully, Rev. Gregg Sealey

PUGET SOUND DISTRICT This was an interesting year for the Puget Sound District on many fronts. Perhaps most notably was the awareness that the present twenty-nine faith communities would be transitioning to an entirely new district by year’s end, joining more than twenty other faith communities from neighboring transitioning districts. The Puget Sound District name would also change, adding the word “Missional” to the title to remind churches of the need to move beyond their congregational walls to “missionally” respond to their respective communities. The present Puget Sound Leadership Team worked diligently to help prepare churches for this change, and need to be applauded for their efforts. Team members were pastors Tom Steffen, Jim Clarke, Cody Natland and Kathy Hartgraves. They were assisted in their work by Co-District lay leaders Lori Flores, Brian Rockum, Eve Carty and Keith Skore. Each member was a valuable contributor. This same team also helped organize cluster charge conferences, as well as clergy and spouse dinners throughout the course of the year. Our annual “Roots and Wings” training event was a success, bringing together leaders from the conference staff, as well as from within the district to provide excellent training. The theme was the “Inward and Outward Journey” of the Christian. The event was held at Marysville UMC where the congregation proved to be wonderfully generous hosts. Our thanks to Pastor Jenny Smith and her team of volunteers. The event that brought out the largest number of participants was the “Table Talk” gathering held at Edmonds UMC the end of April. We were fortunate to have Bishop Elaine J.W. Stanovsky present to help lead the event. The Edmonds congregation also proved to be excellent hosts, and our thanks to Pastor Sandy Brown and his volunteers for their hospitality. In particular, I would like to thank District Co-Lay Leader Keith Skore for D.S. REPORTS his extra mile efforts. There are many other things that could be mentioned, but suffice it to say that this “final” year for the district was a good one, However, in the midst of the many good things to note, there are also moments of genuine sadness. That certainly was the case for Ce- dar Cross UMC pastor Jim Clarke, and his wife Paula McCutcheon (Lake Washington UMC) who tragically lost their nineteen year old son, Kenneth, who was struck by a car in Washington D.C. where he was beginning his college career at American University. Our hearts and prayers continue to go out to them. Finally, as I move into retirement, I want to make sure I clearly express what an honor it’s been to serve alongside such good and faithful people. I have memories I will trea- sure forever from my seven years as the Puget Sound District Superintendent. Respectfully, Rev. L Daniel Foster SEVEN RIVERS DISTRICT The Seven Rivers District joined the other districts of the Pacific Northwest this year in becoming a missional district. Our focus across these last years has been turning ourselves outward and learning to build life-giving relationships beyond our normal circles of friends and family.

A fall workshop on Compassion helped us reflect on and practice ways of being more fully present with whoever it is we are with. The spring retreat at Lazy F was titled 84 2018 PNWAC DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT REPORTS L-3

“Monarchs, Gray Whales, and Us: Stories of Migration.” Led by Lyda Pierce, participants shared personal and family stories of migration. Our stories ranged from moving slowly through the generations from New York to the west coast, to moving every other year as dad was moved for his corporate job, to being newly arrived in the US from Central America. In telling our own stories and listening to those of others, we deepened our understanding of ourselves and one another. Spring also saw our first round of Table Talks. These gatherings were designed to help Greater Northwest Area churches and their leaders prepare for the 2019 General Con- ference. Participants received information on the work of the Commission on the Way Forward and the Council of Bishops and the legislation to be presented for consideration at the Special Session of General Conference in February, 2019. Using tools of the Chris- tian faith that faithful followers of Jesus have used through the centuries to ground and prepare themselves, we engaged in conversation in small groups. In these “kitchen table conversations” we shared the way we each approach conflict and how church and our life experiences have shaped our thinking. Since its earliest days, the Christian church has had to navigate divisive issues. There is always something that arises to divide us. As people of faith, followers of the way of Jesus, we must learn to engage those differences in grace-full ways that lead all towards life, even when our paths diverge. D.S. REPORTS Respectfully, Rev. Mary Huycke TACOMA DISTRICT The 2017-2018 appointment year was a busy one for the Tacoma District with 11 total pastoral changes. Three pastors are moving within the district: Pat Longstroth, from Brownsville to Bremerton; Dan Breznau, from St. Andrew’s to Fircrest and Bethany; and Nathan Hollifield, from Fircrest and Create Commons to full-time at Create Com- mons, a church plant in Tacoma. Pastors moving out of the district include: Don Ford who will move to Coos Bay, Ore- gon to serve a local congregation there; Marion Moore-Colgan, who will serve Elma; Wesley Stanton who will serve Ritzville: Trinity; Ferdinand Llenado to Renton: Fair- wood; Jeung Hee Kim to Davenport: Edwall; and Ron Myers to Ocean Shores. We also welcome nine pastors into our district including: Marc Kennedy who will serve Kingston: Redeemer; Denise Roberts who will serve Buckley: Foothills; Heather Spark- man who will plant a new church on Steamboat Island; Justin White, from the Mississip- pi Annual Conference, will serve Brownsville and North Mason; Dirk Wooten, from the Virginia Annual Conference, will serve St. Andrew’s; Ken Macklin, from California Pa- cific Annual Conference, will serve Tracyton; and Bernard Ritchea, from the Rio Texas Annual Conference, will serve Eatonville. In addition, we welcome back Sharon Moe who will serve Tacoma First. I am blessed to be joining all of you in the local church in the next appointment year as I will serve Puyallup UMC. During this year, we met with churches in the Seattle District for a training day in January where we talked about clergy health, learned about contemplative prayer, and considered how to reach out to our neighbors. It was a wonderful day to share with so many of you.

On May 6, the District celebrated with Tacoma First Korean as they officially moved into the former Fern Hill UMC building. The ceremony included worship with Bishop Elaine Stanovsky preaching, Rev. Joseph Jung translating, and former Fern Hill members honored. It was a beautiful ceremony and celebration! As this is my last superintendent report and the last Tacoma District report, I would like to express gratitude for each and every church and pastor of the Tacoma District who welcomed me and my family. I am especially thankful for the leaders of the District including Lynn Magnuson who chaired the District’s Building and Location Committee; Katie Klosterman who chaired the District Committee on Ordination; and for the clergy who served as cluster leaders including Pam Osborne, Nancy Ferree-Clark, Ruth Mar- ston-Bihl, Wesley Stanton, Melissa Ramming, Jim Head-Corliss, and Ann Lock. In addition, I would like to express my gratefulness for the many retired clergy who stepped in to serve local congregations when needed. It has been a pleasure to serve as your superintendent for the last four years. May God continue to fill you with your Holy Spirit and bless your ministry. Respectfully submitted Rev. Cara Scriven SEATTLE DISTRICT This was a challenging year. Two of our pastors (D.J. del Rosario and Gloria Kymn) went on medical leave, and two of our pastors (Joanne Brown and Paula McCutcheon) went on family leave as they wrestled with the deaths of a spouse and a son. There has been wave after wave of grief, and yet thankfully, equal waves of love, kindness and compassion. The clergy of our District wrapped themselves around their colleagues, and the laity raised over $13,000 to help stricken congregations fund temporary pastoral re-

D.S. REPORTS placements. It certainly was an outstanding example of our United Methodist connection working together. I would like to especially commend the Des Moines, Tibbetts, Bothell and Lake Washington congregations for standing with and supporting their grieving, and wounded pastors. It was truly holiness in action. Another challenge has been the ever-rising costs of living in the Seattle/King County region. Our congregations are feeling the stress of housing costs for pastors without parsonages, and the escalating costs of maintenance of buildings. University Temple made the seismic decision to enter into partnerships with developers and will tear down their buildings, rebuilding on their land with two towers. A whole new ministry awaits in the years ahead. Another large building, Trinity in Ballard, decided to sell their property and move elsewhere. The congregation is still in discernment concerning next steps. There were lots of pastoral movements as this appointive year comes to an end. We said a fond fare-well to those leaving our District: Pastors John Mark Galang(Beacon) and Kathleen Weber (Trinity) have become District Superintendents. Janelle Kurtz (Sand Point) will move to Snohomish. Colin Cushman (Seabold) moves to Bay View/Sedro Wooley, Joyce O’Conner Magee (Fairwood) to Goldendale, and Matt Gorman (Wood- land Park/Crown Hill) to Leavenworth. Marc Kennedy folded his new church experiment in Burien and will be appointed to the parish of Redeemer UMC in Kingston, WA. Come July we will welcome Hubert Rigor (Connell) to Beacon, Ferdinand Llenado (Tacoma First/Bethany) to Fairwood, Nico-Romeijn-Stout (Anchorage) to Sand Point, and Cindy Roberts (Chelan/Manson) to Seabold. Several pastors will continue in the District but at new churches: Troy Lynn Carr (Bryn Mawr) to Grace, Mel Woodworth (Grace) and Meredith Dodd (on leave) to Bryn Mawr in a team ministry, Joanne Brown

(Tibbetts) will become Associate Pastor at Des Moines, Sarah Casey (Bothell) will be appointed to Tibbetts, and Willie Deuel (Green Lake) will add Woodland Park as a two- church appointment. We also have recruited Aaron Strietzel from outside the denomination to become pastor of Trinity, and Janet Sonnanburg to serve at Crown Hill. Our largest congregation, Bothell UMC, was truly rocked with lots of movement this year. As their pastor, DJ del Rosario, went expectantly to disability leave, their Associ- ate Joe Kim stepped up into the Lead Pastor role and has now been appointed into that role. I want to commend retired pastor Dave Orendorff for his heroic, sacrificial love as he stepped into the Bothell congregation for three months as an unpaid interim helping to keep the congregation stable and thriving. This year Pastor Joe Kim will be joined by Casey Banks (Vancouver) who will serve as Associate Pastor. Lots of movement! We continue to experiment with doing church in new ways. Thomas Yang has shifted his new church start from Bellevue into the South Park area, and Valley and Mountain is giving birth to the Ravenna Collaboratory: a north and south Seattle partnership. As we close this year we also close the Seattle District. Next year we will merge 39 of our congregations with fifteen congregations in Tacoma and become a new SeaTac Mission Field. As a primary urban ministry we will focus on how to re-present the good D.S. REPORTS news of Jesus Christ into an increasingly spiritual, but non-religious culture. The challenges ahead are difficult and will require much courage and wisdom. So I will close with my favorite blessing: Our times are too desperate for anything but the truth. The work of our time is too hard for anything but hope. The world is too small for anything but love. Respectfully submitted, Rev. Rich Lang VANCOUVER DISTRICT The 2017-18 appointment year was busy for the Vancouver District with 14 pastoral changes. Pastors moving within the district are as follows: Pam Brokaw from Castle Rock to Rochester and Oakville; Dean Anderson from Grays River to Kalama; and David King from the Pacific Parish (South Bend and Bay Center) to Fern Prairie. Pastors moving into the district are as follows: Rebecca Patterson from Oregon-Idaho AC to Grays River; Dave Horning from retired Cal-Pac AC to Satsop; Marion Moore-Colgan from Bonney Lake: Foothills to Elma; lay pastor Allison Mattocks from California to Longview; Denise Westfall-Neuschwander from retired to Ocean Park; Ron Myers from Puyallup to Ocean Shores; John Hiestand from Rocky Mountain AC to Salmon Creek; and Vivian Hiestand from Rocky Mountain AC to Washougal. In addition, the Pacific Par- ish (South Bend and Bay Center) and Skamokawa churches have elected to use a laity-led model and will be utilizing their own laity as well as guest preachers to support worship. We said goodbye to K. Marcella Bramstedt who moved into retired status; Joyce Emery who took a position with the National Presbyterian Church in Washington DC; David Emery who moved to Washington DC; Rene Devantier who moved to Spokane; Mary Evelyn Long who re-retired; Wayne Schneider who re-retired and is relocating to Arling- ton; Casey Banks who was appointed to Bothell UMC; and Tom Tucker who re-retired. 87 L-6 DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT REPORTS 2018 PNWAC Heather Sparkman will be a new church start pastor on Steamboat Island near Olympia. In January, we lost Beryl Curtis who passed away of a heart attack. Beryl had faithfully served the Skamokawa church for 10 years as a Certified Lay Minister, providing excellent worship and pastoral leadership to this small congregation. Services were held January 31 at Skamokawa UMC to an overfilled sanctuary. Activities in the District included the 3rd Annual Drive Out Golf Tournament at Orchard Hills Country Club in Washougal again supporting the Clark County Council for the Homeless. This year raised $8000 thanks to the many golfers, churches and local businesses who donated items in support of this event. District clergy gathered for an Advent celebration at Chehalis with a lunch that followed at Jeremy’s Farm to Table Restaurant. 40 youth participated in the District Youth Retreat at Ocean Park Camp over Presidents Day Weekend. Rachel Neer and Sean Crews from Project Transformation were keynote speakers. In the spring, the Vancouver District Leadership Team sponsored a Passionate Worship workshop led by keynoter Shalom Agtarap. There is change for all of us as we have been re-districted and renamed to become the Crest to Coast District, which will encompass the former Vancouver District and churches north to Puyallup. The larger area will be an adjustment to all, but our new Superinten- dent, Kathleen Weber, will capably guide us. As I conclude this term as Vancouver District Superintendent, I reflect with gratitude on the ways in which the Vancouver District clergy and churches have blessed me in my time. Your stories and our experiences together have left an indelible imprint upon my soul, and I will continue to hold you all close to my heart. Respectfully submitted, Rev. David Nieda D.S. REPORTS

89 M-2 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC OFFICE OF CONNECTIONAL MINISTRIES

Ministries of the Conference will be reviewed based on how well the funding request addresses the mission and vision of the Annual Conference. The following questions along with the enclosed vision statement will provide the basis for that review. Please provide a narrative response to each question below:

1. In the past year, using financial resources from the Pacific Northwest Conference: How did your ministry make disciples of Jesus Christ and transform your community and the world? This may include making new disciples, helping those who work with the ministry to grow in discipleship and service to the world.

Rev. David Valera Executive Director of Connectional Ministries The bulk of our work as the Office of Connectional Ministries (OCM) is found supporting Districts, Local Churches, New Faith Communities, Conference Boards and Agencies and the larger connection beyond the Conference. The OCM is sometimes likened to a hub, where much of the work cross-pollinates and in turn, affects the whole ecology of the connection. Through this office, alignment and support is provided for ministry areas that relate to Leadership Development, Congregational Development, Compassion and Justice, and Communication. So as the success of making disciples of Jesus Christ is the work of the local church, the Office of Connectional Ministries exists to support and provide the necessary tools and resources for individuals, local churches and faith communities. The goal is to support the formation of disciples who not only change the world, but continue to make disciples as well.

This fund provides salaries and program resources for Conference staff tasked with support and leadership. This also funds resources for meetings, travel and training for most of the Boards and Agencies of the Conference. Beyond meetings and events, this budget

REPORTS enables Conference-wide communications through the PNW website (www.pnwumc. org), News Digest, Channels, our social media presence, and other print and online publications. It also includes information management and support for implementing technology in ministry. Additionally, the Regional Media Center and duplication center handle the purchasing and lending of media resources to local churches on a fairly regular basis. The Annual Conference Session is one of the key events that the Office of Connection- al Ministries is deeply involved in. In conjunction with the Treasurer’s Office and the Bishop’s Office, the OCM provides much of the staffing support that is necessary for the success of the event. Time is spent on going through the previous years evaluations and suggestions so that improvements can be lived out through the leadership of the AC sessions design team, worship committee, technical teams and all other groups involved in the process.

Because discipleship happens primarily at the local church level, a significant amount of time and financial resources are dedicated by the staff of the Office of Connectional Ministries to “bridge the gap” between the various levels of church structure; moving the church from a traditional hierarchical structure to one that is more collaborative, while equipping and supporting local churches in their primary mission of making new disciples.

90 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-3 For 2017-2018, The Office of Connectional Ministries is composed of: • Executive Director of Connectional Ministries • Director of Leadership Development for an Inclusive Church • Director of Faith Community Development • Associate Director of Faith Community Development • Coordinator of Hispanic/Latino Ministries • Director of Communications, Ministries with Young People • Program Associate for Youth and Young Adult Ministries • Office Manager/Administrative Assistant for Connectional Ministries • Assistant for Leadership/ Congregational Development • Help Desk Manager • Graphic Designer and Print Manager • Regional Media Center Manager • Regional Media Center Technician

The Office of Connectional Ministries also shares resources and collaborates with: • Executive Director, Camping and Retreat Ministries (Camping Board of Stewards) • Executive Director, United Methodist Foundation of the Northwest

Boards and Agencies, to whom OCM staff is assigned, are provided with behind the scenes support and a link to resources and information. I usually help find answers to questions like, “What’s going on with the rest of the connection?” or “How are other conferences dealing with this issue?” So, it is our task to be aware of not only what’s going REPORTS on within our community, but with the global connection as well. Whether it’s the Cabi- net, Board of Congregational Development or Council on Youth Ministry, we, the staff of the Office of Connectional Ministries feel blessed with the many opportunities of mission field engagement and opportunities of sharing the love of Jesus Christ to everyone. Here are a few testimonies from staff:

Jesse N. Love Graphic Designer and Print Manager Leadership Development Through my position in the Conference, I help nurture and grow the communications interests of our United Methodist volunteers. Monthly, I seek out writers to help process and crunch relevant news and cultural issues that reflect the PNW’s stance on said issues. Currently, I am awaiting content in response to the recent #metoo movement and in the past, I have sought out contributors to respond to Martin Luther King’s legacy and to Black Lives Matter. Helping to encourage and develop voices of young adults simply by producing and editing content alongside them is one way I’ve helped develop leadership. As a designer, I’ve occasionally worked with young people, namely our young Filipi- no-American United Methodists. I’ve recently assisted in working with Nica Sy and young people at Seattle: Beacon UMC to help develop their vision of a “Beacon Youth” logo/sweater design. Just the back-and-forth talks that are a part of refining a design is an experience that will be with them in future decision-making in other areas of their life in ministry.

Congregational Development/Church Growth As the Conference Office’s resident graphic designer, I have supported the work of four separate faith community developers: the Revs. Dave Gillespie, Curtis Brown, Bill 91 M-4 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC Gibson, and Shalom Agtarap. I’ve helped them execute their design visions and refined logos for The Greening Edge, materials for the Ministry Fund Drive, and recently logos for a developing Vitality office. My purpose is to use tools provided by the Conference to design, offer advice regarding a design’s compatibility with a larger project (website, campaign, etc.), and assess the potential risks of bad design (work that distracts or does not fulfill the mission, purpose, or intention of a project).

On the local church level, I lead a communications conversation with members of the Olympia Cluster. This meeting involved sharing the work I do for the Conference and teaching how they can apply design practices and research to their own communications outlets for ministry.

Missions/Connection I have regularly worked with our Conference Secretary on Global Ministries (either Mar- ilyn Reid or Joan Hackett) to help feature pieces that highlight the work of missionaries we support, especially Global Mission Fellows. Through Channels and The PNW News Blog, I help generate copy and photograph content as well as nurture volunteers to assist in highlighting Mission u, and the actual work of our missionaries (examples: advocacy work of Global Mission Fellows at Tacoma Community House and Faith Action Net- work; the missionary work of Katherine Parker in Nepal; requesting assistance of young people in sharing their experiences at Mission u).

Ian Patrick McKnight Regional Media Center Manager Leadership Development: The Regional Media Center has a plethora of leadership development resources that are checked out regularly, by both clergy and lay people. Additionally, over the last year, pastors who are going through the ordination process have been checking out cameras to film themselves. REPORTS Congregational Development/Church Growth: On a day to day basis, the RMC primarily serves local churches, providing a simple way to access resources, from congregational development to confirmation curricula. The RMC also provides services for local churches that involve copyright. The RMC manages the conference’s group licenses (CVLI and CCLI) that provide major discounts for local churches and the conference. CVLI normally costs an individual church $240, but on our group license the cost is only $125. We receive a blanket discount of 25% off of CCLI for all churches as well.

Missions/Connection: The majority of involvement in this area for me is in event work. Last year, I worked on our joint PNW/OR-ID team to ensure a smooth Annual Conference. With my personal background in Stage Technology, I am able to bring some of my personal skills into the mix during this time each year. Last year, I was responsible for a good portion of the tech for our outdoor event on the Columbia River. Additionally, last year, I served to assist in the setup and logistics of the Clergy Transitions Workshop.

92 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-5 2. What criteria did your ministry use to measure its effectiveness in 2017? How can you demonstrate that Conference funds are making a difference? Please include any independent assessments of the ministry, such as accreditations or awards.

Rev. David Valera Executive Director of Connectional Ministries Because the Office of Connectional Ministries deals with numerous events, trainings and projects, there are multiple ways by which the work is effectively measured. After event evaluations, whether printed or online, are one good source of feedback and information. Most OCM-led or supported events offer online evaluations. These results are then col- lated, analyzed and shared with the organizing bodies. This helps us keep track of what works and what needs to be improved. With the ever-changing dynamics of the world we live in, the church needs to be constantly updating its practices with new learning trends and proficiencies, while maintaining a deep sense of faithfulness to our call of the ages. An example of OCM leadership work that is most reviewed is the Annual Conference Session. For 2017, we received comments, evaluations, affirmations and feedback on this (first time to be a shared-with OR-ID) event.

But even before 2017, the most detailed, time consuming yet critical work of the OCM is planning and implementing the many facets of each year’s Annual Conference Session and ensuring that the decisions made are followed up and implemented. The logistics alone of preparing and hosting an Annual Conference Session are extensive. Included is the development and publication of the pre-conference handbook, the registration of hundreds of participants, and maintaining open lines of communication with leaders and planners of the conference session. REPORTS

Kristina Gonzalez Director of Leadership Development for an inclusive Church Leadership Development The primary role of my position is to increase leadership capacity among lay and clergy of the PNW Conference. My passions and expertise are in intercultural communication and competency. I bring this lens to all that I do. I ascribe to a servant-leader model, which attempts to recognize and support the resourcefulness and giftedness of each person. I am in the enviable position of raising issues of inclusion in all aspects of our ministry life, a position that is quite unique in our United Methodist connection.

Congregational Development/Church Growth I have staffed the Board of Congregational Development for many years. The primary strategy for revitalization of existing congregations has been through leadership development. I play an active role in supporting ethnic and multicultural ministries through advocacy, training of new leaders, and support for the intercultural work that is so important in today’s context.

Missions/Connection I support the Commission on Ethnic Ministries, which has traditionally been the first funder for many new ventures designed to serve non-dominant cultures. I am able to advocate for the needs of these missional ministries, opening access for them to financial and other resources of the conference.

93 M-6 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC Anna Conklin Office Manager and Administrative Support As part of the support staff for the Office of Connectional Ministries I help maintain up- to-date membership lists with contact information for boards and agencies based on the information we receive from our churches. Part of my responsibilities includes dupli- cating and distribution of meeting notices, agendas and other printed materials. We are also available to help in setting up registrations along with hospitality such as meals and assistance in locating and booking space for meetings/special events. If unable to attend the meeting in person, arrangements can be made for conference/ZOOM calls. During Annual Conference I support the Office of Connectional Ministries at the remote location offering assistance in making copies and the distribution of printed materials. Following the Annual Conference Session, I am part of a team that collects and organizes material for our Conference Journal which is distributed in the fall of the year. By providing behind-the-scenes support it is my hope that in making meeting logistics run smoothly agencies/boards can spend their time more effectively in reaching out to help make disciples of Jesus Christ who transform the world.

Teri Tobey Associate Director for Ministries with Youth and Young Adults Over the past year, I’ve worked with over 80% of our local churches to answer questions and help them with national background checks and abuse awareness training through our provider MinistrySafe.

Leadership Development I support our conference and district youth teams in helping our young people to learn how to be leaders. We offer training about leadership and opportunities to put those principles into action. They learn about the consequences of their decisions and following through on projects.

Patrick Ferguson Assistant for Leadership and Congregational Development

REPORTS Leadership Development and Congregational Development/church growth I work to coordinate the administrative needs of congregational development: communications with a complex network of staff, offices, a large number of churches, boards, committees, and the general public in person and by phone, email, and social media. I also provide support and organization for events: registration, publicity, flyers and meal planning. This may require occasional evening responsibilities or overnight/weekend travel. I also provide high-level support to boards and agencies, such as the Board of Congregational Development and Commission on Ethnic Ministries.

Missions/connection In this area, I support and encourage the employees of the PNW Conference and the GNW Area Conference of The United Methodist Church as we all strive to become disciples of Jesus Christ and transform the world. I care for the administrative needs of the executives of the PNW Conference and the GNW Area of The United Methodist Church where needed which requires that I am familiar with the structure, language, polity, and processes of The United Methodist Church.

Tyrone Olds Regional Media Center Technician The only outcomes I get to see directly from what I do every day are simple things - a five-minute video on YouTube, a conference call during a meeting, an event where you 94 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-7 can hear the speaker just fine, or a full water cooler in the lunch room. But I know that there are lasting effects that I barely get to hear about. Maybe someone calls the office looking for a recording of an offering from Annual conference. Maybe a board with members spread out all over the state gets used to Zoom (video-conferencing) and starts using it all the time (saving valuable time and money). I think my favorite event lately was the Compassion facilitator training with Frank Rogers. Even before finishing the material, there were churches who felt empowered to lead their own workshops, spreading the palpable love of God in their communities.

I feel like our region is on some of the leading edges of culture and Christianity, and it's neat to be a part of that.

3. For 2019, describe your major ministry plans in terms of the making disciples of Jesus Christ and transforming your community and the world.

Rev. David Valera Executive Director of Connectional Ministries There are three (3) words that will help us align our work with the rest of the Greater Northwest Episcopal Area for the remainder of the Quadrennium: Innovation, Multipli- cation and Inclusion. These three words have begun to set the Greater Northwest in a trajectory of being pro-active in searching for new and better ways of being in ministry, expounding our capacity to make disciples of Jesus Christ, and being intentional at welcoming by learning from all others who have not been embraced by the church. I believe these words will help guide us in developing and measuring how we continue to live out our calling as God’s Church in this part of the world and beyond. REPORTS

With that said, 2019 will be the beginning of living out the dream of having Episcopal Area staff. Those three words (Innovation, Multiplication and Inclusion) will guide the focus of the area office to which the PNW-OCM will be supporting. These focal points of ministry are designed so that in our quest to follow Jesus Christ, we do not remain complacent, satisfied with the status quo, or continue to consider exclusively the needs and opinions of those who are in the church already.

The PNW OCM will help provide a framework through which access to these episcopal area resources can be prioritized, resourced and most of all, maximized. To find out more about these three words, please refer to the budget request from the PNW Board of Con- gregation Development.

For 2019, The Pacific Northwest Office of Connectional Ministries will be composed of: • Executive Director of Connectional Ministries • Director of Communications, Ministries with Young People • Program Associate for Youth and Young Adult Ministries • Coordinator of Hispanic/Latino Ministries • Office Manager/Administrative Assistant for Connectional Ministries • Publication Manager/Creation Care Advocate • Help Desk Manager • Regional Media Center Manager • Regional Media Center Technician

95 M-8 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC While the Greater Northwest Episcopal Area Staff will be composed of: • Director of New Faith Community Development • Associate Director of Faith Community Development • Director of Leadership Development for an Inclusive Church • Director of Congregational Development • Assistant for Leadership/ Congregational Development • Assistant for Congregational Development

Although it may appear that this 2019 staffing structure will cost more money for the PNW, this shift in coverage and responsibilities will actually help bring the cost down by a significant amount. Why? Because Greater Northwest Episcopal Area staff will now be a shared cost between PNW, OR-ID and Alaska Conferences.

This reduction is reflected in the attached spreadsheet.

4. How will you measure the results of your 2019 work? How will you know if you were successful at the end of the year?

Most of the events and programs that the Office of Connectional Ministries leads, or are significantly involved with, offer an evaluation or feedback system that is either printed or online. Many improvements to events have been a result of collating data and information shared from such surveys and evaluation forms. The OCM seriously considers every reasonable suggestion or comment that participants share. For 2019, we hope to offer a more robust online feedback and evaluation system that should continue to help us deliver better trainings, programs and events.

We also evaluate different items by the response they receive. If a training is cancelled or poorly attended, that tells us as much as one that is very successful. Similarly, as we con-

REPORTS tinue to transition our communications to digital formats, we get more data to consider as we can see how people consume what we produce to a greater degree. In either case, we seek to be responsive to the real needs of the faith communities we serve and allow feedback to drive iterative change to our ministries.

5. If Conference funds were reduced by 15%, how would this affect each area of your ministry?

Since the primary funding agency of the Office of Connectional Ministries is the Annual Conference, a 15% reduction would greatly impact the work in a negative way. It does not take much to see that the bulk of the OCM Budget relates to personnel and costs associated with them. In a connectional system that has 95 percent of its members acting as volunteers, there is a constant need to carry out relevant pieces of work, after volunteers have left the building. From helping organize next meetings and events; communication and promotions; to program monitoring and evaluations, the work of the OCM helps focus, align and implement our work as an annual conference of The United Methodist Church.

96 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-9 6. How does this ministry reach across the Conference or represent a Conference priority? For example, a new ministry may be a pilot project in a limited geographical area, but the model should have potential for Conference-wide application. Ministries that are geographically specific should represent a Conference priority.

Patrick Scriven Director of Communications & Ministries with Young People Leadership Development The two portions of my portfolio each relate to the work of leadership development, though in somewhat divergent ways. Our Ministries with Young People, for which Teri Tobey provides key coordinating support, offer more obvious leadership development opportunities. While I have had to limit my direct involvement due to other commitments, the opportunities to meet with CCOYM to discuss their plans for the year, and to support the work of these emerging leaders on the ground at events like CONVO, is a continuing blessing.

I also believe that effective communication is very much a part of leadership development. At trainings and consultations over the past year, I regularly made the connection between the need to communicate the ministry of our churches well, and to extend an invitation to the community, to our responsibility as disciples of Jesus. To be a leader, one needs to put in the hard work of listening, and follow that up with intentional translation of the Gospel for today’s world.

Congregational Development/church growth

In my experience, when it comes to church’s (existing or new) experiencing growth, good REPORTS communication is a given. The question yet unanswered is whether that presence should be categorized as causation or correlation; perhaps it depends on the situation. In workshops, and in focused consultation with local churches, I work to emphasize how important effective communication is to church growth. I try to help them to understand that their online presence (or digital doorstep) is likely the first point of contact they will have with potential visitors, offer guidance and technical support toward improvements, and counsel regarding the need to balance demands and capacity toward the end of more professional outcomes.

Missions/connection As Director of Communications I try to allocate time each week to staying on top of the work of The United Methodist Church, locally and globally. I do this so I can help to bring before our leaders the important conversations happening in the larger church, and highlight potentials resources that are available to us as a part of a global connection. Closer to home, I also try to keep an eye out for stories of local church success, and to highlight the work of those who are reaching out to their communities. Our office continues to support and collaborate closely with those engaging in disaster response and other mission related efforts. We prioritize their stories and appeals in our communication channels, and help to support and share the training efforts they plan.

Rev. Shalom Agtarap Associate Director for New Faith Community Development Leadership Development Identifying, equipping, and deploying leaders feel consistent with my work in resourcing innovation work. To that end, I have worked with youth in Christmas Institute for more than 15 years, initiated and facilitate monthly calls among planters in Peer Learning 97 M-10 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC Circles for first year planters, and support the Multiplying Ministries trainings. I am also working out a plan to identify and mentor young adults so that we can create a pipeline of new faith community developers.

Congregational Development/church growth I have offered training and facilitated conversations at existing congregations: Walla Wal- la Pioneer, Suquamish Young Adult Fellowship, Redmond UMC, and Marysville UMC. The work of supporting and retooling existing churches for the work of engaging their communities is what I enjoy in working with local faith leaders. I bring questions more than products; I model openness to Spirit movement rather than programs.

Missions/connection Much of my work depends on being keyed in to the nonprofits and social services already present in a community. Asking questions about affordable housing, living wages, opioid addition, and immigration status are missional concerns that lead a planter or existing church into deeper relationship with those most vulnerable.

7. How intentional is the leadership and outreach of your ministry with regard to inclusiveness and diversity? Describe plans to enhance the inclusiveness of your ministry in the future.

While their portfolios do not represent the entirety of our connectional efforts toward inclusion and diversity, I’d like to share the reports of Kristina Gonzalez and Rev. Lyda Pierce here because it is in their portfolios that these values have much focus. The exis- tence of staff persons so dedicated to these missional priorities is not a given across the expanse of the United Methodist connection and is a testament to our Annual Confer- ence’s commitment in this area.

Rev. Lyda Pierce Coordinator for Hispanic Ministries Leadership Development I work at discerning leadership potential and recruiting people to move into appropriate education and into larger leadership roles. I serve as teacher, coach, mentor, cheer-leader and prayer-partner to be part of the formation of leaders, particularly Hispanic-Latino persons and others in Hispanic-Latino and multicultural ministry. One aspect of this role is working with District Superintendents in understanding and connecting with Hispan- ic-Latino pastors and populations. Possibly a third of my time is in this role of support, guidance, discernment and accompaniment.

It turns out that there is much bureaucracy in leadership development which is a struggle for me to accomplish but is fruitful and necessary. This involves the details of getting people into a course of study with all the finances and paperwork done and helping candi- REPORTS dates for ministry and their District Committees on Ministry to understand each other. Serving on the full membership committee of the Board of Ordained Ministry is another specific, and time-consuming role that is about leadership development and the discernment of what kinds of varieties of clergy leadership are being called out for the conference by God.

Another important aspect of leadership development is nourishing an environment of mutual support, respect and unity. This was a specific task that was assigned to me by Bishop Hagiya when I was recruited into this position and one that I take seriously. This is primarily and informal, a constant and intentional aspect that I attempt to attend to in every relationship and task that I attend to. This is built out of my intention to treat everyone with dignity, to apologize when I constantly fail, to refer people to one another as resources, to mention people’s name to others with respect, and to seek opportunities to share different perspectives with care and respect, seeking to hear other sides.

Congregational Development/church growth Continual conversation, teaching and connection with the Hispanic-Latino churches and the starting and nourishing of new Hispanic-Latino starts is another large part of my commitments and time. Some of this ministry is formal such as working with the Board of Congregational Development and the Hispanic Ministry Committee. An even larger commitment is the consistent and informal work of staying in touch with pastors and leaders of ministries that are working hard to develop strong, vital ministries in the name of Christ in their local communities. This work is carried out in Hispanic-Latino retreats and camps, in visits, some unannounced, to local churches, and in many conversations in phone calls and shared meals. 101 M-14 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC Missions/connection In this time of increased uncertainty for immigrants, I have been working to provide resources and to converse with pastors and congregations regarding ways of building partnerships, response plans, and community organization that may contribute to making our churches and communities safer places for immigrants to live and flourish as beloved children of God. Events I have lead/design/supported in 2017. • Hispanic Family Camp - planning team, overall coordination team - PNW • Hispanic Women’s Retreat - overall coordination team - PNW • Hispanic Men’s Retreat - overall coordination support team - PNW • Seven River’s District Immigration Workshop - planner and presenter • Joint Annual Conference Workshops on Immigration - planner and presenter - PNW and Oregon-Idaho Conferences • Licensing School - planning team and professor - Western Jurisdiction • Spanish Intensive - overall coordination, devotional leadership - PNW • Roots and Wings - preacher - Puget Sound District

Narrative In a previous role as a missionary in Honduras, I knew Joel Rodriguez as a child and teenager. Then, in 2015, I learned through the jurisdictional missionary, Brenda Vaca, that he was graduating from the Latin American Biblical University, where I had once served as a professor. In a surely Spirit-led timing miracle, I was able to introduce him to former superintendent Juli Reinholz, developer Bill Gibson and with Rev. Pat Beeman in Sunny- side. I coordinated the work of the superintendent, an attorney, and the conference office staff to apply for a religious visa which, some 18 months later, led to welcoming Joel and his wife, Aurora, at Sea-Tac.

I have continued to be a resource for dialogue and discernment as superintendent Mary

REPORTS Huycke, the GNW staff for strategic faith community development, and the local church under the Rev. Pat Beeman work together to be with Pastor Joel Rodriguez as he builds a new faith community. I am thankful for the opportunity to be a little piece of his ministry as he learns to make Mexican pozole and he serves a new group of people who never knew that church could be sharing soup, prayer, a reflection and then, their lives.

8. Include here your most compelling success story involving the use of Conference funds.

Patrick Scriven Director of Communications & Ministries with Young People For a number of years, we’ve been transitioning much of our storytelling from the print world to a digital one. Through platforms like the PNW News Blog, the PNW News Digest, and our social media presence, we have the opportunity to celebrate and invite participation in the work of our boards and agencies, to lift up shared ministries like UM- COR’s much needed disaster response, and to recognize the amazing things happening in local churches as they connect to and serve their communities. We set new highs for readership in 2017 (for a non-General Conference year) with nearly 124K online views of stories we published. 102 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-15 As we move closer to a critical time in the life of our denomination, providing ready access to accurate information, and space for dialogue is essential. While this can and should happen at the local church level, and through intentional opportunities that bring people together and the district and conference level, our communication platforms have a role to play as well. Improving our usage of them, the reach and impact they have, is work I’m excited to be a part of.

One final communications-related note. In 2017, we continued our recent investment in the Zoom video conferencing platform with more executive staff and superintendents (and as mentioned elsewhere, more conference boards and agencies) using it to hold meetings that previously would have required travel by car or air (and hotels and meals). While we haven’t yet run the numbers, the minimal relative cost has certainly been offset by its growing use. In addition to the purely financial benefits, people can participate in the work of the conference with less of an ask of their time; time once spent in travel can be used more efficiently in the local church. And, of course, less travel is better for the environment.

Kristina Gonzalez Director Leadership Development for an Inclusive Church Project Transformation (PT) was affirmed as an extension ministry in 2017. Its mission intersects a number of priorities – ministry with the poor; leadership development among young adults; and congregational vitality. My knowledge of the PNW conference and my staff role with the Commission on Ethnic Ministries allowed me to advocate for support of this new ministry. In its first year, the project helped children, mainly from low-income families of color, to retain or gain in reading comprehension over the summer break. This REPORTS is equity work as reading comprehension is a proven indicator of future economic stability. PT also opened its young adult interns to new ways of imagining Christian ministry, and helped a local host church to connect with its community in profound and life-giving ways.

We don’t often think of administration as having direct connection to the mission. How- ever, the ministry of administration is to create environments where something spirit-driven can happen. I am blessed to do this work, as well as the training, facilitation and coaching. All is important to our mission.

103 M-16 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC INNOVATION AND VITALITY TEAM

Rev. Dr. William D. Gibson - Director of Strategic Faith Community Development

What I’ve been up to this year: To quote the poetic genius of Bob Dylan, “The times they are a-changin’.” That is an understatement considering our political and cultural climate. Culture is always emerging — the ever-ticking clock ticks — and the church often struggles to respond to change, much less lead it, which brings me to my point. We often talk about innovation in the church, but the hard truth is that we typically are in reactionary mode, frequently lagging instead of leading. Innovation is about change and how change is tended to in relationship to a changing world. And in a world where “alternative facts” and “fake news” shape a widening political and theological divide, the church has both a deep responsibility and an incredible opportunity.

One of the most influential books I read as a rookie business entrepreneur was Peter Drucker’s “Innovation and Entrepreneurship: Practices and Principles” (Harper & Row, Publishers, Inc. 1985). From Drucker’s perspective, innovation wasn’t a technical activity; it was economic or social. In other words, innovation was wonderfully nuanced by the emotional temperament of humanity. It engaged the deep recesses of our creativity (both producers and consumers), which was often suppressed by sensibility and certainty. Over the years, the church has tried to embody innovation through the business phrase “best practices.” For the business world, best practices were about maintaining quality and establishing benchmarks. In the church, however, we’ve had a tendency to see best practices as program options that will ensure success. If they worked in that church, then surely they will work in our church. This is a tempting argument.

The problem, as I have alluded, is that the church is not as adaptive as Corporate Ameri-

REPORTS ca. We don’t like change. We are drawn into it kicking and screaming. At the very least, we are so guarded that our fear of change keeps us from operating out of the box. And we are not “selling” a product, right? But we are competing for the attention of consumers in a dominantly consumer culture, whether we like it or not.

Why am I beginning my report with all of this? It’s because what I have been up to has everything to do with innovation. We have been assessing the last two development seasons, making adjustments, and pivoting toward strategies that more fully reflect the real-time emergence of our unique context of the “None Zone.” As a part of this movement, through 2017 we have been giving shape to the collaborative work of a Greater North- west team that focuses on innovation and vitality. What first began back in September of 2015 as a cross-conference effort between Rev. Steve Ross of Oregon-Idaho and me, has now evolved into a four-person collaboration under the banner of the Greater Northwest Innovation Cultivation Team.

As Rev. Ross retired in 2017, left his position as Oregon-Idaho Conference Developer, and went back to the local church, dreaming continued with Kristina Gonzalez, Di- rector of Leadership Development for an Inclusive Church (PNW). In July 2017, Rev. Shalom Agtarap was appointed as the Associate Director of Strategic Faith Community Development (PNW) in support of new church development. And in the fall of 2017, a search-and-interview process was initiated for the right person to fill the position in 104 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-17 Oregon-Idaho vacated by Rev. Ross. Finally, in February 2018, the last member of the Innovation Team was welcomed, as Dr. Leroy Barber joined the party as the Congrega- tional Developer of Vitality (OR-ID). So we are now living into the amazing future that God is unfolding.

As the scope of our work expands collaboratively across the entire Greater Northwest Area, the launch of the new Greater Northwest Innovation Cultivation Team represents a commitment to continue to support and resource our new and local churches in their pursuit of vitality. Each team member represents a particular area of focus and/or support toward the work of fostering vitality within our annual conferences. Our focus and support roles are intended to dovetail in order to offer a more robust and integrated approach to expanding ministry in the Wesleyan tradition.

Rather than operating in ministry silos around the work of new church development and revitalization, we have moved toward what it looks like to cultivate vitality through innovation. What does it look like for all of us — new churches and existing congregations — to engage in the work of creating new places for new people? We are not just looking for church planters, but also for innovators who can develop and lead Christian community toward the mission of making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.

In the last three development seasons (2015/2016, 2016/2017, and 2017/2018), we initiated 20 new projects across the Pacific Northwest Conference. During the 2016/2017 development season, we launched seven new projects designed to create new places for REPORTS new people: • Pan-Asian/Multicultural/New Start (Seattle District) • Burien/New Start (Seattle District) • Orting/Repurposing (Tacoma District) • Walla Walla/New Start (Seven Rivers District) • Audubon Park Multisite/New Start (Inland District) • Community Multisite/New Start (Inland District) • Fiilipino/ Multicultural/New Start (Vancouver District) During the 2017/2018 appointment year, we have worked to develop three projected new church projects for the 2018/2019 appointment year: • First Canada Multisite/New Project (Puget Sound Missional District) • Marysville Multisite/New Project (Puget Sound Missional District) • Capital Circuit Cohort New Project (Crest to Coast Missional District) The unfolding trend represents momentum and fruitfulness, while at the same time it adds challenges that expose human and financial capacity issues, when considering how to both balance the ongoing development of new projects with the ongoing management of existing projects. Consequently, the expansion of our team is a natural reflection of the growth and opportunities we have across our annual conferences to continue the work of creating new places for new people, while cultivating innovation and vitality within our churches and wider communities.

The strategy of our Greater Northwest Innovation Cultivation Team has come out of ongoing joint resourcing across all three of our annual conferences and is creating a new way forward to toward new life — cultivating vitality.

105 M-18 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC What are we doing well? Where are we headed? What has emerged out of 2017 presents major ministry plans for doing our work during 2018 and 2019, framed by the Greater Northwest Innovation Cultivation Team, and in collaboration with the Board of Congregational Development (PNW), Congregational Development Team (OI), and the New Church and Faith Community Development Com- mittee (AK). The Greater Northwest Area Team will bring focus to how we foster and support life across our Episcopal Area through new starts and new life in existing congregations. We will orient our work to the three practices that we believe to be essential to vitality of new and existing ministries:

• Innovation • Multiplication • Inclusion applied to vitality initiatives to create: • New churches • New faith communities • New ministries

Our Board of Congregational Development (BOCD) has been heavily invested in starting new churches over the last few years. However, the board has also invested in strategic support of leaders in existing congregations to do the work of innovation, multiplication, and inclusion. As we move forward, leaders for both new starts and intentional revitalization of existing ministries will receive similar coaching and training to do this work.

All of our churches should be engaging in new ways to reach new people. This is a named expectation for all United Methodist churches and is central to the gospel. The work of the Greater Northwest Area Team and the BOCD is to determine the most strategic method to accomplish this goal, using our existing congregations or seeding new

REPORTS expressions of Christian faith in the United Methodist tradition.

What trending needs or opportunities do you see? Our work strategically intersects our conference and general church priorities, which focus on “making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world.” We are uniquely positioned to be on the leading edge of change within our denomination. We have worked extraordinarily hard in order to become more effective and efficient in our efforts. This has led us to create ways that will help us prioritize our efforts in the Greater Northwest Area.

One of those ways involved a challenge to the Greater Northwest Area Cabinet to name the number of churches that were trending toward closure over the next 10 years. The data revealed an expected result: We cannot plant enough churches fast enough to offset those we will lose. At the same time, projections of new church projects revealed a surprising offset in fruitfulness and financial capacity to continue to multiply. The early learnings are: • The data helps us determine a more intentional and strategic approach to how we integrate the work of new church projects and revitalization of existing ministries. • The ways in which we can come alongside churches more strategically around closure. 106 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-19 • Processes for linking heritage and legacy to the ways in which we birth new life (resurrection) through new projects. • Finding the healthy balance between the current (and necessary) pace of developing new church projects and the need for strategic repurposing work with some of our most qualified existing churches. • The means by which we can expand our ability to manage this work effectively. • The manner in which we implement vitality strategies and determine the settings.

Our learnings over the last two years have paved the way for appropriate tweaks and piv ots in strategy in order to become even more efficient in fostering vitality. As we move through 2018 and 2019, we are also enlisting our District Superintendents to name their strategic priorities each year for both new church projects and vitality projects. This will help our Greater Northwest Innovation Cultivation Team and the boards it staffs to work more strategically with our Treasurers Offices to steward our funds in ways that prioritize our efforts with the strategic initiatives of the conferences and districts. This is especially important as the new Greater Northwest Innovation Cultivation Team comes on line to lead us in our efforts to foster vitality across the entire Episcopal Area.

The stated requests of the District Superintendents that will help us prioritize our work include: • New places: Where are your most strategic areas to launch a new church? What are the most noticeable demographic features of each? Please order by priority. • Existing places: What churches do you see as the most strategic in your district —

those with the greatest potential to impact their communities and multiply? Please REPORTS order by priority. • Who are the top five high-capacity pastors who can help convey vision, narrative, and initiatives across your district?

As we worked through the 2017/2018 development season and we prepare for the 2018/2019 initiatives, we are also guided by: • Recruiting the right people, which means we are raising the bar on our assessment process and an accompanying learning plan for planters/innovators. • Training our planters/innovators and pastors for existing and emerging contextual challenges. • Understanding and adapting to the costs associated with launching new places for new people across our annual conference. • Prioritizing our projects, as previously outlined, based on the strategic initiatives of the District Superintendents.

Strategic focuses will include: • Asset-Based Community Development — Leveraging our assets and developing strategic partnerships • Community Organizing — Intentional engagement with our communities/neighborhoods • Leadership Development — Developing leaders who develop leaders • Multiplication — Multiplying Ministries • Intentional Collaboration and Partnerships — The Syndeo Project

107 M-20 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC There are a couple of broad points to be mentioned here regarding significant shift: • Scarcity/Abundance: We are starting to experience a shift in narrative from “It’s not possible” toward exploration of what God is already up to across our conference. This rests upon a move from a position of scarcity to recognizing the abundance of God. This has been supported though intentional vision-casting and pointing to the fullness of life represented in Jesus the Christ. • Multiplication: In our effort to reinsert the expectation of multiplication into the DNA of our new church and vitality projects, we are beginning to see fruitfulness. Vitality efforts now center on fostering self-propagating ministries, fellowships, and churches. This has been supported by our Multiplying Ministries training initiative, which is now in its second season.

It should also be noted that our efforts to establish clearer processes have improved our ability to support, assess, and pivot in our approach toward vitality. This has allowed us to prioritize and become more nimble within the ever-shifting cultural landscape of the None Zone.

We celebrate that at the 2017 PNW Annual Conference session, Valley & Mountain chartered as an official United Methodist Church, as it also celebrated its sixth anniversary. In addition, Valley & Mountain is working to replicate its DNA by helping launch a new church initiative in the Ravenna community of Seattle, through the Ravenna Collaborato- ry. Multiplication is becoming a new standard as a part of how we understand our mission of making disciples of Jesus Christ for the transformation of the world. Examples of multiplication include: • God’s New Generation (GNG) West Campus, out of GNG East (Hispanic/Latino new church). GNG is working on launching a third site (Pasco, WA). • First UMC Canada Multisite, out of First UMC Canada (Vancouver, BC). • Ravenna Collaboratory, out of the DNA of Valley & Mountain (Seattle, WA).

REPORTS • Bothell Multisite, out of Bothell UMC (Seattle, WA). • Walla Walla New Start, in a Syndeo cohort with Pioneer UMC (Walla Walla, WA). • Audubon Park Multisite, out of Audubon Park UMC (Spokane, WA). • Community UMC Multisite, out of Community UMC (Coeur d’Alene, ID).

God is moving in powerful ways. A Northwest revival is emerging on the horizon, pre- senting an awesome adventure for our churches to co-create new places for new people. Are you ready to walk by faith?

108 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-21 BOARD OF LAITY Goal for 2016 – 2017 Generate financial support for the completion of Project Rebuild: Up from the Ashes: After hearing about the enormous losses resulting from the 2014-2015 Wildfires (Okanogan/Carlton Complex) that burned over 1 million acres of land, destroyed 584 homes, destroyed wildlife habitat and more, the Board of laity, on behalf of the PNWUMC laity accepted the challenge of raising funding for Project Rebuild: Up from the Ashes. We committed to stay with this until all of the families and individuals rendered homeless were not just sheltered but provided with permanent residences. While the size of this project was daunting, we proceeded with faith. It is our pleasure to report that the goal has been achieved. We spoke in churches, sponsored fundraising events, hosted immersion trips to view both the devastation and the enormous work being done on the new homes, and we kept the project in front of the PNW United Methodists through articles, brochures, the annual conference and more. We are deeply grateful to all those who gave of money, time, labor and prayers. Thank you, all of you! Goal for 2017: Shared Annual Conference Laity Session was successfully planned and conducted in cooperation with the Co Lay Leaders of the Oregon/Idaho Conference. The shared session brought some challenges but many more gifts. We wanted to encourage people to talk to one another across conference lines, not only to share ideas, but also to build relationships. We presented four outstanding laity driven programs and structured conversations around tables. We had fun, learned about many possibilities for creative ministry both from the present- ers and from tablemates, and came away with ideas, dreams and energy. REPORTS New Ways of Meeting: We have successfully shifted from holding all meetings in one physical location that for some involves considerable travel and lodging, to using Zoom technology. This allowed members both visual and auditory connection without leaving home. This saves time and allows your conference apportionment dollars to go further. In addition, laity throughout the conference has been finding more creative and effective ways to be in ministry in their communities, feeding the hungry, easing conditions for the homeless, transitioning families into more stable lives, providing after school and summer tutoring for children and much ore. God is working through our laity every day. What’s Ahead? Our 2018-2019 Goal is to regenerate lay leader training that is localized, consistent and create a stronger pool of lay leaders for the congregations throughout the PNWUMC. Working in partnership with our own cadre of trainers and leaders, we will focus our efforts in 2018 on creating a lay leader orientation (borrowing from the best lay leader trainings in the country), developing a district or sub district delivery system, and establishing a robust lay leader cohort learning/support system for implementation in 2020. We continue to work with the Oregon/Idaho and Alaska Missional Conferences, the Western Jurisdiction and the Association of Annual Conference Lay Leaders.

Respectfully Submitted, Nancy Tam Davis 109 M-22 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC COMMISSION ON ETHNIC MINISTRIES The Commission on Ethnic Ministries continues to provide financial resources that are enhancing vital ethnic ministries and developing programs that are reaching out to new communities. Did you know that because of our connectional system, you are a partner in this very important work of our Annual Conference?; and because of your Church’s apportionment giving, you can celebrate this work with us, and know that it is extending the depth, breadth and reach of our shared ministry across the geographic bounds of our Annual Conference?

The two main vehicles for the disbursement of these financial resources.... NEW LIFE GRANTS, for Vital and Growing Ethnic and Linguistic Faith Communities prompts faith communities to take discipleship into their neighborhoods, responding to the current and emerging needs of their communities and ministries, seeking to bring a new and renewing spirit that touches lives and builds relationships, in the name of Jesus Christ.

In 2017, the commission awarded.... • BREMERTON UMC received $5,000 to develop outreach efforts to racial/ethnic communities in their area.The springboard for the project was a growing relationship with their neighborhood schools through tutoring • TOPPENISH, NEW HARVEST UMC received a second year of funding to create and sustain events in the community designed to meet needs and introduce the United Methodist Church to the community. • FIRST UNITED METHODIST CHURCH OF CANADA, a majority Filipino/Canadian congregation is reaching out to new immigrants through connections with the United Methodist Church in the Philippines, and has begun the process of seeding a new worshiping community near Whistler.

REPORTS • LA PALABRA VIVIENTE introduced new outreach programs to continue to build relationships among Hispanic/ Latino families in the area. The commission will offer an additional round of grants in 2018.

BEYOND THE DOORS, Mission Field Engagement provides a three-year grant ($3,900 a year with a 10% decline per year) for faith communities to employ a worker to coordinate outreach programs or do outreach work that invites racial/ethnic (persons of color) and linguistic communities (first language other than English) into relationship with the United Methodist Church locally. BEYOND THE DOORS focuses on the mission field of the established faith communityand supports the faith community in ministry beyond its doors. All ministries of the PNW Conference are eligible to apply. The commission has completed four full cycles of grant funding. In 2017, two churches completed their three-year cycles. • MOSES LAKE UMC developed relationships with the Hispanic/Latino community. • ALDERSGATE UMC developed relationships with Asian immigrant communities in their area. Both Churches are continuing these and other effective ministries in their communities. In 2018, two Churches continue their work through the support of Ethnic Ministry Grants... • FALL CITY UMC will complete its grant cycle in its ministry is to the Hispanic/Lat- inx community in their neighborhood.

110 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-23 • VALLEY AND MOUNTAIN UMC moves into its second year of funding for outreach to multicultural young families in Seattle. As well, 2018 brought into the first year of our funding cycle these ministries.... • FOWLER UMC in Spokane is building relationship with African immigrant populations in Spokane. • NEW HARVEST MINISTRY in Toppenish is building relationships among younger Hispanic/Latinx families in the area. The commission will issue a new call for Be- yond the Doors grant applications shortly. In addition, your apportioned giving supports Leadership Development of ethnic leaders, lay and clergy, emerging and mature, for the mission of the church, to make disciples of Jesus Christ for the Transformation of the World • ETHNIC YOUTH CAMP SCHOLARSHIPS: In 2017, 20 racial/ethnic young people attended camp on scholarship, which also enhances the camp experience for young people of the majority culture. • CONVOCATION/CONFERENCE YOUTH RETREAT SCHOLARSHIPS: In 2017, 24 ethnic young people attended Convocation with this support, and 2 youth attended a district youth retreat. • CHRISTMAS INSTITUTE: Filipino, Filipino-American, Filipino-Canadian young adults lead a-5 day retreat for junior and senior high youth In 2017, 61 campers and leaders participated. Of those, 11 were first-time campers; 30 were returning campers; and 20 were young adult leaders. They were supported by 7 clergypersons. CI continues to be a catalyst for young people to recognize a call to the ordained ministry. • CULTURAL COMPETENCY: This program provides funds each year to support REPORTS intercultural communication for all ordained an appointed clergy and lay development. Funds were transferred to a special account in 2017 in anticipation of increased activity in 2018 and beyond as the GNW Innovation Cultivation Team becomes operational. Intercultural Competency is one of the three practices identified as essential for congregational vitality in the future. These funds will seed work that the commission also affirms as essential to the future of UM faith communities in this region and beyond • CAUCUS SUPPORT: Enables ethnic leadership gatherings for support, training and advocacy. In 2017, funding was allocated to the Western Jurisdiction Korean Caucus for the leadership gatherings held annually throughout the quadrennium. The gatherings provide ministry and spiritual support for leaders in small to mid-sized Korean congregations; critical mass is achieved by gathering as a jurisdiction. The commission also supported Tacoma: Kalevaria UMC, a Samoan congregation, to attend its jurisdictional caucus meeting held in Medford OR in 2017. The proximity of the event allowed over 40 persons to attend this training/fellowship event.

NEW PROJECT DEVELOPMENT/SPECIAL GRANTS The commission provided support for a number of new projects designed to reach new people and new communities.... • TACOMA: FIRST KOREAN UMC increased its staffing to reach English-speaking Koreans (1.5 or 2nd generation) and English-speaking spouses of Korean immigrants. 2017 was the second year of partial support for this ministry. • WILBUR MEMORIAL UMC created a position for a Yakama laywoman to develop programs to serve young people in the community. Through this process, she is attending Certified Lay Ministers training and exploring a callto ministry. This is the second year of partial funding for this ministry. 111 M-24 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC • PROJECT TRANSFORMATION, a UM summer internship/summer literacy project serving low income children, found its first PNW home in the Vancouver District. The commission supported this new project, as it is serving lower income students who are primarily students of color. The outcomes for Project Transformation were excellent in its first year of operation. Given the excellent outcomes, the commission has provided support for its second year of operations as well. PT’s fiscal year begins in September. • CREATE COMMONS, a new ministry project in the Tacoma District, received funds to develop programming designed to appeal to un-churched or de-churched younger people, many of whom are people of color. This project is one among the new faith community starts, also supported by the Board of Congregational Development. This project experienced a change of leadership in its first year. The commission is working with the new leadership to determine whether project support will continue. • Expected funding for SUNNYSIDE HISPANIC/LATINO MINISTRY was disbursed in 2017 after a long wait for the designated leader to arrive. Joel Rodriguez arrived in Summer 2017 after spending two years in pursuit of a Visa from Costa Rica. The commission celebrates his arrival, and supplemented its support in order to solve an issue of health insurance for his spouse. • BURIEN: HIGHLINE UMC has stepped out in faith to use the parsonage as a ministry site. The commission is providing partial support to offset the loss of rental income from this re-purposing. The ministry leader is an experienced Local Pastor, having received her training through the National Plan for Hispanic/Latino Ministry and Course of Study. • THE WESTERN JURISDICTION IMMIGRATION TASK FORCE will produce a training-of-trainers event in Spring 2018. The commission answered a request to provide scholarship support for this event. • The commission also provided a small amount of funding for facilities repairs at NOOKSACK INDIAN UMC, a ministry that is sustained by lay leadership from the

REPORTS area. There is no longer a worshiping community at this church. However, the facility is used heavily for recovery programs and other vital (though not congregational) ministries.

In January 2018, our Commission entered into a time of discernment, from which a new strand of vision from God arose, as we began to see ways that we might work pro-active- ly and collaboratively on new projects and programs that will focus on: NEW OPPORTUNITIES FOR LEADERSHIP DEVELOPMENT, potentially taking the very fruitful Christmas Institute model and expanding it to people in other ethnic ministries and communities;

A more robust GATHERING/TRAINING/RESOURCING FOR ETHNIC CLERGY; and Working in partnership with the COMMISSION ON RELIGION AND RACE, the BOARD OF CONGREGATIONAL DEVELOPMENT, and the BOARD OF OR- DAINED MINISTRY to vision and work collaboratively to addresses issues affecting our racial/ethnic local churches and ministries, and to offer the transforming love of Jesus Christ in circumstances where people of color or immigrants may feel disrespected or dehumanized.

Our 2019 budget reflects these new visions and priorities. Are these not wonderful opportunities to extend the ministry of Jesus Christ and the 112 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-25 reach of the United Methodist Church and the Pacific Northwest Annual Conference?! While we believe that ethnic ministries are contributing in mighty ways toward the revitalization of their churches and communities, as well as our Annual Conference and denomination, it reminds us all as well that each and every church and ministry in our Annual Conference are surrounded by neighborhoods and communities that are diverse not just in ethnicity, but also in culture, tradition, religious affiliation, generation and experience; and it is our hope and our prayer that we might findways to reach out and open up, to stretch, to be innovative and creative, that we might speak and act in ways that these persons might feel from us a welcoming spirit and radical hospitality that will bring to them the good news of Jesus Christ, knowing that doing so has the potential not just to revitalize these lives and communities, but our own ministries as well, in exciting ways! Please keep these programs, ministries and communities in your prayers, that the resources of our Annual Conference and the power of the Holy Spirit will provide spiritual blessings and fire the imagination and vision in ways thatwill revitalize each one, bringing the Kin-dom of God into a greater expression of faithfulness and fruitfulness amongst us!

May it be so! Derek Nakano, Chair

CONFERENCE COUNCIL ON YOUTH MINISTRIES

The Conference Council on Youth Ministries (CCOYM) team is a group of youth and

adult volunteers from all across the Pacific Northwest annual conference, selected to REPORTS be on this volunteer team. We represent youth on wider boards and committees of the Annual Conference, share information about district and conference youth events, and plan a Conference Wide youth event called Convo. This year the team included youth members from across the conference that met three times this year in order to make what we do possible. The Executive Team of this body met for an additional two meetings for continued planning, and discussion on the future regarding youth ministry.

One of the things we do as a team is plan an event called Convo. Convo is the largest youth event of the year for our Annual Conference. Hundreds of youth and adult youth workers gather for three of music, prayer, fun, learning, and growth. The Convo chairs and the team worked hard throughout the year to plan Convo 2017. Convo 2017 was held during Memorial Day weekend and the theme was “Boldly Go and Make a Difference.” We focused on how to go out and make a difference in our family, church, community, and world. We had the pleasure of hearing Chelsea Spyres, the Director of Christian For- mation at St. Matthew’s United Methodist Church in Bowie, Maryland.

Planning ahead to Convo 2018 we are again at the University of Puget Sound on Memo- rial Day weekend. The theme chosen for 2018 was “Instruments of Peace.” We selected Rev. Hannah Adair Bonner as our speaker this year. Rev. Hannah Adair Bonner is the Director of Frontera Wesley, the Wesley Foundation of Tucson. She was recognized nationally as one of the “16 Faith Leaders to Watch in 2016,” and given the Prathia Hall Social Justice Award. She will be helping us explore tools to help us learn how to be a better participant in difficult conversations.

113 M-26 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC We choose to do all of this to create and establish a culture within our community of youth working to help fulfill the mission of the United Methodist Church, to create disciples of Jesus Christ and to call to action these youth to change the unique and special worlds they live in. Thank you for your support of youth in local churches and around the conference.

-Falisha Hola, President

CONFERENCE COUNCIL ON YOUNG ADULT MINISTRIES This year the Conference Council on Young Adult Ministries, or as we have been calling it, the Young Adult Ministries (YAM) Council has been working on how they can best serve the young adults in our conference and best support the local churches in ministry with young adults. The YAM Council has been using the Mission Statement adopted several years ago to guide our efforts. Mission Statement Our mission is to strengthen the young adult ministry in the local churches and districts of the Pacific Northwest Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church so that they may live the Gospel in a way that inspires young adults to transform the world. We updated the available resources for churches to help them continue and prepare to receive and nurture young adults in their midst and communities. We are sharing these items via our PNWUMC website, including a new section on scholarship information and volunteer opportunities for young adults across the connection. We also complied information about having a voice and vote both within our Annual Conference and the community. We worked hard to fill the Young Adult district Voting spots for Annual Con- REPORTS ference to help make sure that the voice and insight of young adults are heard. The 2017-2018 year has had a challenging beginning in that we have not been able to fill our executive team and are still searching for someone willing to lead our efforts. -Amanda Tobey

CONFERENCE BOARD OF GLOBAL MINISTRIES The Conference Board of Global Ministries is a program committee, the Mission ‘arm’ of our conference, and consists of representatives from many areas of activity. Mission is what helps our churches grow and reach out to others. This may be local, conference wide, jurisdiction wide, or globally. All programming and spending is done with the question: “How does this educate, enable, and empower the local church to be in mission?” We are humbled by all the ways churches serve in the community, be it local or global. Through feeding the hungry, sheltering the homeless, making quilts – through helping local families repair or build their homes, cleaning yards for the elderly, serving as disaster shelters – or gathering socks, hats and mittens for those who are cold - or walking in

114 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-27 Hunger Walks, traveling with mission teams, or advocating for those with no voice – we are the United Methodist Church in action! United Methodist Women – Much of the Conference’s Missional involvement both locally and globally is done through the UMW. Marilyn Wudarcki and Janice Catrell serve on the CBGM to coordinate our work. Mission u – This joint venture of UMW and CBGM is an annual event for men, women and youth from across the Conference, held each July in Ellensburg. In 2017 the all school study was led by Bishop Mary Ann Swenson on Missionary Conferences of the UMC- Oklahoma Indian, Redbird Kentucky and Alaska. All Native American PNW churches were personally invited by the Dean and scholarship help offered to all who might attend. One man from Wapato did attend Mission u. This was his first time to attend and he contributed to a plenary on Missionary Conferences. Joan Hackett is the current person from the Mission u team serving on the CBGM to coordinate our planning and support. Hope for the Children of Africa – Our Conference continues its relationship with, and support for, the two Jamaa Letu Orphanages under the leadership of Barbara Dadd Shaf- fer. Their complete report is also included in this Report Section, but they coordinate with the Conference through the CBGM.

The number of college students continues to increase, a trend expected to continue through 2020 when the ‘bulge’ will begin to decrease slowly. A quick look at a photo of REPORTS the boys in the orphanage illustrates this. Most of the boys are full grown size. All but six of the boys are approaching the end of their secondary education. The Vancouver Meth- odist Foundation manages the funds. Some funding comes from donations to the PNW Conference; other comes from individuals and funds which the foundation holds. A Mic- rosoft employee who traveled to the Congo last August is raising funds among co-workers for these kids’ education. The company matches employee donations 100%. Microsoft will not donate directly to religious activities but will donate to a third party and that has been arranged. The population in the two orphanages remains at 35 girls and 22 boys. This is an excerpt about one of the new residents from a talk I gave recently:

The newest boy in care has a unique advocate. There is a new bishop in southern Congo as of last March, Bishop Owan Kasap, and he began his service by visiting the churches in his new Area. When he was in Kapanga, about 600 kilometers from Lubumbashi, for a couple days, he noticed a young boy hanging around one of the adult choirs. He was playing in and among them as they were singing. He appeared to be about seven or eight years old. When the bishop asked about the boy, he learned that the boy had no family and that the choir members were taking turns taking him home with them at night. You can quickly figure out where this is going. The bishop made the arrangements for him to live at BART. There was paperwork to complete before he made the actual move a couple weeks later. Rukang Chikomb, the pilot for that trip, reported that the boy was air sick the whole way. Poor kid. Tshingej Rumej Simon had never been school, knew only the language of the village and was now in a strange place. The staff and older boys took him in. The report from Fresie Chikomb is that he has picked up Swahili, is doing all right in school, and loving the new large new family. I can easily picture the older boys – and there are a lot of them – doting on this little kid.

115 M-28 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC Immigration and Refugee Program – This is a joint effort with the Conference Board of Church and Society as Lyda Pierce keeps us informed about issues facing some of the most disadvantaged people in our area.

This last year has been difficult for refugee and immigration ministries. We have, however, been working ever closer in networks: through the whole UMC led by the United Methodist Immigration Task Force; the formation of a Western Jurisdiction Immigration Task Force on which Lyda Pierce sits; MARCHA-West; coordinating throughout the Greater Northwest; staying in touch with our local Tacoma Community House; connecting ecumenically with Church World Service and the Inter-Faith Coalition on Immigra- tion and local networks especially the Church Council of Greater Seattle; and connecting through secular networks especially the Washington Immigration Solidarity Network and local pieces such as the Yakima Valley Rapid Response Network. Such networking helps make a greater impact on legislatures, educate local congregations and, more importantly, educate and provide greater safety to refugees and immigrants in our midst. Funding from the CBGM has helped provide pieces of this networking by sending people to training at the jurisdictional level.

This next year, we expect to need funding for increased resource materials and the multiplication of training throughout the conference.

United Methodist Volunteers In Mission (UMVIM) – United Methodist Volunteers in Mission (UMVIM) live out their faith by serving on short-term projects to create long term relationships with communities both locally and throughout the world. We are fortunate to have Ronda Cordill as the Jurisdictional UMVIM coordinator and serves as part of our CBGM team.

During 2017, Rosalee Mohney served as UMVIM volunteer scheduler for the Okanogan

REPORTS Long Term Recovery Rebuild. Wendy Riddle has served as UMVIM Annual Conference Coordinator during the past year. In 2017 we deployed 5 international teams and one international UMVIM volunteer. Two teams went to Saipan, one to Lubumbashi, one to Guatemala, and one to Swaziland. We deployed 129 individuals in 14 teams to the Okanogan Rebuild. We sent five teams to the UMCOR West, Depot, and one to Sager Brown. Two ERT teams were sent to Sinton, TX, and one to Houston. Another ERT team served in Spokane. One youth team went to Camp Mekokiko on Kona, and a construction team went to Rainelle, WV. UMVIM Team leader training was completed one-on-one for teams participating in the Okanogan Rebuild, and for several other teams needing leadership training. Team leader training was held in October at Pasco: Riverview, and in November in Tumwater, certi- fying 23 team leaders. Early Response Training (ERT) was conducted at Lazy F in an academy format, with several specialized offerings, including forming our first certified chainsaw team. Disaster Recovery is still a very important part of the Annual Conference focus for 2018. The Okanogan Rebuild project is nearing completion, though teams to build fences would

116 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-29 be most helpful. We are also beginning training in “Connecting Neighbors”, a disaster preparedness curriculum from UMCOR. Respectfully Submitted, Wendy Riddle, PNW UMVIM Coordinator

Disaster Preparedness and Response – UMVIM Early Disaster Response Teams The following is a summary of the key activities undertaken by the PNW DRC and the PNW Disaster Response team in 2017: • Represented the PNW Annual Conference and UMCOR at the semi-monthly Wash- ington Volunteers Organizations Active in Disasters (WAVOAD) meetings. Served as an at large member of the WAVOAD leadership team. • Presented breakout sessions on Rebuild: Up From the Ashes at two District training events and gave presentations at several churches to inform the congregations about United Methodist activities associated with the recovery from the wildfires of 2014 and 2015 and the need for finances and volunteers. Over $220,000 has been raised through the efforts of the United Methodist Church. • Taught the Basic Early Response Team (ERT) training and ERT 200 level classes to qualify new ERT volunteers and refresh those who received the training more than

three years ago. REPORTS • As an ERT trainer and an UMCOR ERT trainer evaluator I evaluated new ERT trainers in the OR-ID and Cal-Pac Conferences. • Partnered with FEMA and the Washington Emergency Management Department (EMD) to present five workshops across the state on disaster response and long term recovery. • Partnered with the Western Jurisdiction (WJ) DRCs to plan and execute the third WJ Disaster Response Academy in Ontario, CA. Authored and taught the first ever class on ERT response to wildfires. This class is now one of the ERT 200 Level classes provided by UMCOR. • Collaborated with ERT volunteer Dana Bryson and UMCOR to develop two additional ERT 200 Level classes on personal safety and logistics management. The safety class has been approved by UMCOR and the logistics management class is under review. • Collaborated with ERT volunteer Steve Meacham to develop a Conference policy which resulted in approval to train and deploy chainsaw teams under the auspices of the ERT program. Four volunteers have been trained and approved as members of the PNW chainsaw team. Their first deployment was in the Okanogan clearing burned trees that posed a threat to one of the homes under construction. Two of them have since responded to a request in Texas following Hurricane Harvey. • Partnered with the Region IV Mennonite Disaster Service to supplement their vol-

117 M-30 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC unteers rebuilding homes in Saipan following typhoon Soudelor. 50 UM volunteers from across the United States responded to the call and spent three weeks in Saipan working with the Mennonites building/rebuilding homes. • ERT volunteer Wendy Riddle and I responded to a request from the Yakima County EMD to perform damage assessments in Outlook, WA following the breach of a large holding pond which flooded several homes. • Consulted with the Inland West Long Term Recovery Group and the Spokane Valley EMD responding to a high water situation in Spokane Valley. Provided guidance and council on how best to assess and respond to the 77 request for assistance from citizens impacted by the high water and how to assist them with long term recovery. Collaborated with the INW LTRG, WAVOAD and the OCLTRG to provide Disaster Case Management support for the recovery efforts. PNW ERTs performed initial assessments and muck-outs of several of the affected homes. • Continued to work with the Okanogan County Long Term Recovery Group (OCL- TRG) in the recovery from the 2014 and 2015 fires. Rosalee Mohney has been in- strumental in recruiting and coordinating UM teams making the trip to the Okanogan to help with the rebuilds. Fourteen UM teams with 133 total volunteers provided 3,850 hours of volunteer labor in 2017. • I responded to a request from National VOAD, FEMA and the Texas EMD and spent three and a half weeks working out of the FEMA Joint Field Office in Austin, TX. My primary responsibility was to partner with FEMA and TX EMD Voluntary Agency Liaisons (VAL) to help the local long term recovery groups get organized and functioning effectively. • Attended the UMCOR Disaster Response Symposium at Sager Brown. Worked with other DRCs to improve training, response protocols, and communication across REPORTS Jurisdictions and Conferences. • Marysville UMC used one of our ERT tool trailers to transport cleaning kits (flood buckets) to UMCOR West. • I participated in regular WJ DRC, UMCOR DRC, NVOAD, Inland VOAD, and OCLTRG conference calls. • Worked with the DRCs and ERT Coordinators for the Greater Northwest Episcopal Area to develop a proposal and submit a grant request to UMCOR for funding to purchase three shower trailers to be shared by the three conferences in the Episco- pal area. The grant request was approved and the three trailers were delivered in early December. The trailers will be deployed during disaster responses, VIM trips and shared with Conferences within the Jurisdiction when the need arises. (We are currently coordinating with the Cal-Pac Conference to loan them one or more of the trailers in support of the California wildfires recovery efforts.) UMCOR really liked our grant request and asked us to share it with two east coast Conferences who were also seeking shower trailers. • Stan Norman and Gerri Harvill continued to provide financial management support to the OCLTRG. They managed the expenditure of two Red Cross grants and one

118 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-31 UMCOR grant plus donations received for the Rebuild: Up From the Ashes campaign. In addition, they represented the UM at the Unmet Needs table and home dedications. Respectfully submitted, Jim Truitt, PNW Disaster Response Coordinator (DRC)

119 M-32 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC who had never attended this mission event and are from non-UMW congregations has been successful and will continue. Several people were able to participate because of this outreach and will carry mission information back to their churches. Mission Fellows/US2 Affiliates – Paul Mitchell is the current coordinator. Our support for the US2/Mission Intern coordination is helping these young people in their assigned ministries by giving spiritual and practical support as well as bringing them into closer contact with the Conference as they itinerate around the area, sharing not only information about their ministry settings, but encouraging our young adults to consider this form of short-term ministry. The conversations in our Conference Board of Global Ministries meetings are, obviously, wide-ranging and invigorating. Our commitment to enabling, educating and empowering our local churches in ministry is strong. We celebrate all churches who are reaching out to others in so many, many ways that are not always known and recognized. We are grateful for the support of David Valera, Executive Director of Connectional Ministries, Anna Conklin and all the Conference Staff who cheerfully help us organize meetings, feed us, make last minute copies, and generally make us comfortable. Lynn Magnuson, Chair

UNITED METHODIST WOMEN United Methodist Women (UMW) in our Conference continue to be very active in the Conference and in their communities. They work hard to raise funds to fulfill their Pledge to Mission which supports over 300 mission agencies in the U.S. and around the world. Tacoma Community House and Atlantic Street Center are two of these mission agencies. Total Mission giving to National UMW was $104,841.43 in 2017. They also REPORTS support their Conference, Districts and local unit activities/missions. These dedicated UMW raise funds for mission by organizing auctions, yard sales, holiday fairs, bazaars, food sales; and offering delicious dinners. United Methodist Women were also found advocating for immigration rights, the safety of women, children and youth as they work with groups against human trafficking and eradicating homelessness. They are also very active in mission work in their community: advocating with legislators for social justice rights and environmental justice, running clothing banks, creating community gardens to provide food for the community, and assembling UMCOR kits , just to name a few!!! UMW provides an annual Leadership Development for all their membership. An Annual Meeting is held every year to bring all United Methodist Women together for worship, education, advocacy and fellowship. The 2018 Annual Meeting will be at Vancouver First UMC, October 12-13, 2018. Kenya Roberts, Executive Assistant, Office of General Secretary, National office United Methodist Women will be the keynote speaker with the theme “Justice and Mercy for All”.

CAMPING BOARD OF STEWARDS Vision: Camping and Retreat Ministries in the PNW Conference will be at the forefront of making disciples of Jesus Christ and raising up Christian leaders for the transformation of the world. REPORTS We are fortunate to have four wonderful camps in our conference! As conferences across the country look for ways to sell camps, or cut back their camping ministry, we are grateful for the support we receive here in the PNW Conference. While we know that unending financial support from the conference is not realistic, we are grateful for the support we receive and have received over the years. It has been a busy year, and here are highlights: • The Lazy F Dining Hall Campaign has met its initial goal of raising $1.75 million! And it only took four years to raise! While we celebrate the people, churches and organizations that have given so far, because of construction costs, there is roughly $400,000 more that needs to be raised. Ground has been broken and construction has begun, but we are hoping to raise this final amount so we can “cross the finish line.” You will hear more about this at Annual Conference, but if you have not already given, please visit https://lazyfcamp.org and thank you to David Burfeind, the Lazy F Site Advisory Team and the Campaign Committee as well as countless individuals and groups for all their hard work. • Twinlow Camp has completed a new Camp Director house and has remodeled the old Director house to accommodate more staff. The shortage of adequate staff housing has been an issue and these are two big steps in solving this problem. Visit http:// www.twinlow.org for more information. • Ocean Park Camp is in the process of raising money for a new Climbing Tower and Zip Line as the old Zip Line is now retired. Please visit http://opretreat.org for more information. And Camp Indianola has made some great improvements to its site and is worth a visit to see, and here is their website http://campindianola.org- • Lynn Swedberg (liaison for and disability consultant to the Disability Ministries Committee of the UMC) and Sharon Ryder came to our meeting in November of 121 M-34 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC 2017 to talk about the possibility of making our camps more accessible. And Sharon shared the training she did for the Lazy F staff prior to last summer to focus on strategies, preparation and intervention for campers with autism, ADHD and other behavior disorders in hopes it can be replicated at our other camps • We have done a lot of updating to our handbook specifically around issues of health benefits and sick leave to comply with new Washington state laws. A big thank you to Sandi Miller and Alan Rogstad for their continued work on these issues. • CBS is continuing the process of updating our strategic plan (mission and vision) with the goal of continuing the health and vitality of our campsites for many years to come. We will be sending out a survey to everyone that has used our camps for continued feedback.

Thank you to all those who serve on CBS, and to those who work and volunteer for our camps. If you have not done so already, we invite you to visit our website www.pnw- camps.org and see how you can get involved. We thank you for your time, your prayers, your gifts and any way that you have supported camping this past year. Peter Fraser, Chair

WESLEY HOMES For Wesley Homes, this year as last year has been monumental in terms of growth and change. Today and in the future, our market demands superior care and a wide range of services. People are reaching out for lifestyle options that that help them continue to be engaged with “life”. They expect more and are looking at Wesley Homes to lead. Over this last year, we have seen the following: Our new Rehabilitation and Care Center in Auburn is serving that area of King County. The transfer of beds from Seattle University was completed and ownership of these beds REPORTS is now Wesley Homes’.

New cottages are open all around the south and west side of the Des Moines campus. We are welcoming new residents at this time into these accommodations. Construction work began on more cottages and our brownstone building which will provide 24 new apartment style accommodations. We will continue to watch this major development over the next five years.

Wesley Homes has received the Certificate of Need and is now moving forward with building its own Hospice program. We view this as a great blessing to those we serve. Being able now to provide this offering allows for cohesive transition for those under our care.

At the beginning of March, we broke ground on a new Wesley Homes community in Puy- allup – Wesley Homes Bradley Park. It has been uplifting to be embraced by the people of Puyallup as this development helps to fill a need within that community. It is also rewarding to know that the reputation of Wesley Homes precedes us as we move into other locations. We are thankful for those who have come forward in support of this project.

We continue to move forward with another development in Renton. Again, it is heart-

122 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-35 warming to see the support coming from this community – people know Wesley Homes. This property adjoins that of a local Lutheran church. This church shares some excite- ment with us as we discuss possible partnering on land and facility use, as well as possible program sharing in this project.

We changed our name from Wesley Homes to Wesley! This included a new brand identi- ty and logo. The response to these changes has been terrific and well received by all.

We applaud the hard work of our staff, board members, and the support of our residents and friends of Wesley Homes. We greatly value your partnership and prayers, and welcome each of you to join us! Kevin Anderson, President/CEO

UNITED THEOLOGICAL SEMINARY United Theological Seminary in Dayton, Ohio, celebrated a 77% increase in new students for the fall of 2017. While 71 new students enrolled in September 2016, 126 new students enrolled in September 2017. This was made possible by increasing student aid opportunities and empowering faculty members, trustees and administrators to personally recommend candidates for a $5,000 grant toward tuition. United experienced God’s provision, trusting what God said through St. Paul: “[God] is able to accomplish abundantly far more than all we can ask or imagine” (Ephesians 3:20). REPORTS Many of the seminary’s new students are current pastors who want to become more effective leaders for the Church through a Doctor of Ministry degree. United’s Doctor of Ministry program has 170 students enrolled this year from 29 states, 2 non-US countries and 27 Christian denominations. The average number of doctoral students in all Asso- ciation of Theological Schools (ATS) is 60 students, making United one of the largest Doctor of Ministry programs among ATS member schools. The Doctor of Ministry program provides academic rigor, peer group support, spiritual growth and practical application. Pastors identify a need within their community and, with the support of a peer group, mentor and United faculty, they develop a model of ministry that will resolve the challenge in their congregations or communities. Rev. Rudy Rasmus, pastor of the 9,000-member St. John’s United Methodist Church in downtown Houston is a current doctoral student, who says he has been both challenged and supported in the DMin program. “The program is rigorous,” Rev. Rasmus says. “It is contextual, it is intentional and the professors and staff are at the top of the form.” United also has 212 students enrolled in the Master of Divinity degree program who usually seek to serve as pastors in local congregations. 88% of entering students are ordained or seeking ordination to serve a local congregation compared to 56% in other ATS member schools. United also provides a two-year Master of Arts in Christian Ministries degree, which many persons serving as Directors of Christian Education or other local church positions pursue. 123 M-36 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC United provides flexible course options: 90% of students take at least one course online, and courses are also available as traditional on-campus courses, week-long on-campus intensive classes and virtual courses that meet simultaneously on campus and in the cloud via webcast. If you are interested in pursuing further seminary education, contact United’s Office of Admissions at [email protected] or call 800-322-5817. Grace and Peace, Dr. Kent Millard, President

CLAREMONT SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY CST values its connection to The United Methodist Church, and we are so thankful for your love, prayers, and gifts. Our dedication to “preparing our graduates to become agents of transformation and healing in churches, local communities, schools, non-profit institutions, and the world at large” has not waivered and is made possible by your continued 125 M-38 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC support. In 2015, CST developed a five-year strategic plan based on three goals: promoting trans- formative education; engaging local and global communities; and, achieving long-term institutional stability. CST’s groundbreaking approach to theological education is leading the way. Enrollment is up again; students, professors, and graduates are truly creating a difference for the world we live in; and, our advancement numbers are strong. Still our endowment has never been particularly robust, and with an aging campus and the rising cost of higher education, we are running a budget deficit. Many free-standing seminaries are experiencing this problem, too. One way of ensuring a healthy future is to embed in a like-minded university, so last summer we began exploring the possibility of embedding within Willamette University in Salem, Oregon to insure our long-term institutional sustainability. Willamette is one of few United Methodist-related universities in the western U.S., which makes it possible for CST to retain both its affiliation as a United Methodist seminary and its reputation as an excellent theological school with renowned programs. Further, partnering with Willamette provides a number of interesting opportunities to strengthen both institutions – including dual degree programs, joint degree programs with Willamette’s current graduate schools (Atkinson Graduate School of Management and the College of Law), and coursework for Willamette undergraduates. CST has always met challenges with courage – from its founding in 1885 in San Fernando Valley to its affiliation with and later break from University of Southern California, to its 60 years in Claremont – CST’s mission has always survived. Embedding within Willamette allows us the opportunity to thrive in a new way. Even after announcing a possible move, CST’s alumni and friends have been support- ive–evidenced by a 35% increase in revenue/contributions from alumni and friends in the first 6 months of the 2017-18 fiscal year, as compared to the same period of time in

REPORTS the 2016-17 fiscal year. We believe this is an indication of the continued support of our mission and students, and see this as a vote of confidence in our efforts to create a stable financial model able to sustain the CST mission for years to come. Additionally, our Spring enrollment of 424 students is the highest in CST history, demonstrating that the potential move has not deterred students from seeking the transfor- mative education offered by CST. In fact, our M.Div. program has had a 60% jump over the past three years, our D.Min. program has had a 204% increase, and our number of United Methodist students has doubled in the same time period. Our current enrollment is also the most diverse in CST’s history: Our youngest student is 22, and our oldest is 82, with an average age of 42 Our student body is 22% United Methodist, 55% other Christian, 15% non-Christian traditions, 1% non-religious, and 7% unaffiliated/undeclared And, nearly 60% of our students identify as people of color (16% black/African Amer- ican, 15% Asian, 14% international/non-resident, 6% Hispanic, 4% Pacific islander/ native Hawaiian, 3% two or more races, along with 7% undeclared and 35% white.)

In a world rife with division, our students, professors, and alumni are agents of healing who model peace with justice. CST is made up of people who are engaging local and global communities on a variety of issues, from environmental justice and immigration reform, to confronting Islamophobia and peace-building. We could not do this critical work 126 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-39 without you. In 2017, we wished farewell to two retirees: Karen Dalton and Helene Slessarev-Jamir. Karen is a United Methodist pastor who served as CST’s Associate Professor of Prac- tice of Ministry, Director of Field Education, and was co-director of the Center for Global Methodism. Her teaching was shaped by her passion for connecting theory and practice, and by her strong interest in leadership and spiritual formation. Helene served as CST’s Mildred M. Hutchinson Professor of Urban Studies and Professor of Ethics, Politics, and Society. As a political scientist by training with an expertise in urban policy and civil rights, Helene’s research was situated at the intersection of politics and religion. She also served as a member of the Board of Directors of Sojourners and on the UMC’s National Committee for Hispanic/Latino Ministry and its National Immigration Task Force. These women contributed to CST’s deep commitment to The United Method- ist Church, our ecumenical mission, and our interreligious partnerships. They are missed.

We also said goodbye to Rev. Jeanne Audrey Powers. Jeanne Audrey exercised bold and courageous leadership and made possible CST’s Center for Sexuality, Gender and Religion (CSGR) which fosters intellectual inquiry, open dialogue, and spiritual care within religious communities. Five years ago, CSGR founded the Jeanne Audrey Powers Award, which recognizes graduates who demonstrate outstanding service or leadership in LGBTQIA communities and display a commitment to be an activist for social change on gender and sexuality issues. CST is fortunate to have had a friend and supporter like Jeanne Audrey.

SAINT PAUL SCHOOL OF THEOLOGY

Saint Paul School of Theology is a seminary of the United Methodist Church committed to the formation of people for innovative, creative ministry. We are one institution with two campuses, in Kansas and Oklahoma. This past 2017-2018 academic year, Saint Paul enrolled 117 students in the master and doctoral degree programs. The Saint Paul Course of Study School educated 261 students in Kansas City, KS; Hays, KS; Oklahoma City, OK; and Springfield, MO.

Saint Paul School of Theology announced a new FLEX schedule for theological education starting Fall 2018. Seminarians will receive a more Flexible Learning Experience that combines convenience and community opportunities with intentional academic scheduling. Students can take a mixture of online, on-campus, and hybrid (blended online and on-campus) courses to complete the required curriculum.

One FOCUS week will be scheduled each semester for hybrid and on-campus students. They will come together with faculty and skilled practitioners to participate in spiritual 127 M-40 REPORTS 2018 PNWAC formation retreats, practicums that teach ministry skills (i.e. funeral planning, technology in worship, financial reporting), and community activities. The Board of Trustees and president set into motion a new scholarship initiative. Every entering, full-time, master’s degree student at Saint Paul will receive a $5,000 scholarship for the 2018 seminary year. This broad opportunity is the most recent effort to reduce student indebtedness. Seminary partner, United Methodist Church of the Resurrection, will offer a three-year, full-ride scholarship beginning 2018-2019 academic year. The Resurrection Fellow will have a hands-on, paid internship with a ministry mentor to learn ministry skills in evangelism, worship, pastoral care, and discipleship. Dr. Amy Oden, Professor of Early Church History and Spirituality, at Saint Paul at Okla- homa City University received the 2017 GBHEM Exemplary Teacher Award. Her book entitled, Right Here, Right Now: The Practice of Christian Mindfulness examines how Christian mindfulness practices begin with the teachings of Jesus and continue throughout Christian history. Oden includes step-by-step instructions for practicing Christian mindfulness today.

Dr. Mike Graves, William K. McElvaney Professor of Preaching and Worship, published a book in October entitled Table Talk: Rethinking Communion and Community. Table Talk explores communion practices and a new way of doing church that is catching on around the world. Dr. Graves writes about the dinner church movement and ways that it is carried out. Seminary partner, Oklahoma City University, dedicated a classroom in the W. Angie Smith Chapel building to honor retired Oklahoma UM Bishop Robert Hayes, Jr. A plaque on the classroom door recognizes Hayes for his many years of service to both the seminary and university. He returned to Saint Paul at Oklahoma City University this year to REPORTS teach, preach, and serve as Bishop-in-Residence.

The Saint Paul trustees, faculty, staff, and students thank you for your interest, prayers and support. www.spst.edu

AFRICA UNIVERSITY REPORT Africa University is deeply thankful to the members of the Pacific Northwest Conference for investing in the Africa University Fund (AUF) apportionment at 100 percent in 2017. Thank you for being generous and faithful to this ministry. The Pacific Northwest Conference was one of a record 35 annual conferences that achieved or exceeded their 100 percent investment to the AUF. The strong support of the Pacific Northwest Conference helped the Western Jurisdiction to celebrate an overall investment to the AUF of 100 percent for the first time. As Africa University embraces emerging opportunities for service and impact within and beyond the church in Africa, the ongoing support of the Pacific Northwest Conference is of vital importance. It is the university’s prayer that the Pacific Northwest Conference will work diligently to establish and maintain a conference tradition of investing 100 percent of the asking to the AUF and other general church funds. 128 2018 PNWAC REPORTS M-41 Institutional Update: Currently, Africa University hosts a campus community of 1,417 full-time students and faculty and staff from 31 African nations. Another 392 students are enrolled on a part-time basis, for a total enrollment of 1809 students. Amidst a transition in the governance of Zimbabwe, lectures, research, and outreach activities at Africa University are continuing without interruption. A new academic structure and the realignment of programs is encouraging innovation and enhancing Africa University’s relevance to The United Methodist Church and to sub-Sa- haran Africa. This includes the launch of the Institute of Theology and Religious Studies which brings together multidisciplinary training and leadership formation opportunities for both clergy and laity. Africa University-based researchers are providing critical data on mosquitos and regional malaria control programs to aid Africa’s efforts to eradicate malaria and other insect-borne diseases. The university is also making trailblazing, regional contributions in migrant and refugee protection, child rights, and harnessing intellectual property for development. The first 25 years of AU’s ministry have produced more than 8,000 graduates who lead in efforts to make disciples, minister to the poor, improve global health, and better the quality of life in communities. These ministry accomplishments are made possible by the steadfast support of United Methodist congregations in Pacific Northwest and throughout the connection. Beyond REPORTS dollars and cents, the Pacific Northwest Conference’s engagement with Africa University represents hope and transformation for young women and men who are answering the call to meaningful discipleship. Please keep Africa University in your prayers. As you and your fellow congregants take stock of your impact in ministry, remember the young people who are being equipped at Africa University. On June 9th, Africa University will add more than 600 new graduates to the ranks of its alumni. Your graciousness is their miracle and they give thanks to God for you. Thank you, Pacific Northwest Conference, for your foundational role in the Africa Univer- sity story. Thank you for bringing this remarkable dream to life. You are building a global legacy as you invest and journey in ministry with Africa University. May God bless and keep you always in an abundance of grace and mercy. James H. Salley, Associate Vice Chancellor or Institutional Advancement [email protected] Africa University Development Office www.support-africauniversity.org | www.africau.edu

129 130 2018 PNWAC FINANCIAL REPORTS AND ACTIONS N-1 N. FINANCIAL REPORTS AND ACTIONS Brant Henshaw - Conference Treasurer Report of the Conference Treasurer The 2017 calendar year was once again an extremely busy one for the Treasurer’s office. From new church plants, changes to WA state labor laws, legal activities, completion of our Fossil Free investment shift, property sales, new scholarship funding model, and the roll out of the Area Office to go along with our regular fiduciary activities. We again had a clean audit of our 2016 books. Continuing in service to the Conference are Bruce Galvin, Benefits Officer, Pam Kaiser, Staff Accountant, Cathy Lang, Accounts Receivable and Building Manager, and Rik Jamieson, Assistant Treasurer and Benefits Officer. We added Gretchen Engle part time as our Annual Conference Registrar. The team is very experienced and will continue to provide excellent service to the Annual Conference. Shared Ministry apportionments came in again at 93% which is the same as 2016. Our Annual Conference paid 100% of General Church apportionments to keep pace with most of the Western Jurisdiction. We thank you for your dedication to the connection. Of the churches that voted to discontinue their active ministry at Annual conference in 2017, all of the properties have been sold with the proceeds being held for the use of the Board of Congregational Development to fund the 3 new church plants we are launching in 2018. The Trustees have been engaging more directly with BOCD in resourcing their new ministry initiatives as well as caring for the assets currently in their care. The Council of Finance and Administration has continued to drive the conversation of how to budget based on strategic missional priorities. This is leading us to a zero-based budget model (boards and agencies will no longer have line item reserves) and new accountability criteria for Shared Ministry money spent. An Investment Policy was developed and implemented for all Conference holdings. This stewardship effort should further solidify our fiscal stability. The proposed budget for 2019 will be the 10th time in the last 11 years that the Conference budget has decreased. CFA is proposing a FINANCIALS budget that is about 1.8% smaller than 2018. Below is the computation of the ceiling rule (allowing a possible 2.52% increase) based on the increased spending by local churches.

PNW Conference Board of Pensions Introduction This is my first year of my second term serving as Chairman of the Conference Board of Pensions (CBOP). I have served on the board for 14 years, 8 as Secretary. The board meets twice a year, generally on the first Saturday of March and November, in addition to conference calls/emails throughout the year to address other issues as may arise. Our conference is expertly served by our Conference Benefits Officer (CBO), Bruce Galvin in his 42nd year with the Conference! Bruce is highly respected by Wespath, formerly the General Board of Pension and Health Benefits (GBOPHB) in Chicago, and by other CBO’s around the country. He continues to bring thoughtful recommendations to the board and provides us with enough information to have vigorous discussions as a board and make what I always believe to be decisions in the best interest of the active and retired clergy we proudly serve. Members of this dedicated board include:

Jeffrey Johnson (Vice-Chairman) Crystal Natland (Secretary) Sarah Achterhof Julleen Snyder Joyce O’Connor-Magee Jim Odiorne Bill Edom Marty Fortin, Jr. Dennis Magnuson John Weston Ilaise Folau Gloria Kymn Pam Brokaw Jenny Phillips

Non-voting members: John Shaffer, Rik Jamieson, Brant Henshaw, Gregg Sealey, Barbara Hora (Wespath Conference Liaison) and Bruce Galvin.

Pension Board Subsidies For many years the Board has provided subsidies to offset some of the benefit costs for local churches and pastors. Four years history is shown below. Endowment earnings have provided the following funds. 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 (est) Churches Only Health Subsidy/Mission $25,234 $7,577 $7,542 $7,838 $8,145 Church CRSP Subsidy $134,800 $75,589 $233,632 $71,500 $45,000 Active Pastors HealthFlex Exchange $216,309 $218,079 $192,621 $173,720 $170,000 FINANCIALS Premium Support Medical Leave $24,090 $46,021 $59,091 $61,625 $54,200 Churches/Pastors(2016) Wellness Incentive $138,750 $161,250 $136,979 $15,600 $77,000 Retirees Health Subsidies $484,411 $110,094 $103,084 $123,536 $110,000 Total Subsidy $1,023,594 $618,610 $732,949 $453,819 $464,345

Wellness Incentive In 2016, we changed the wellness incentive of $1,000 to go direct to pastor’s Health Reimbursement Account (HRA). For the pastor to receive the incentive, they must participate in their own health care by taking the Blueprint for Wellness screening (blood tests), the WebMD Health Quotient health risk assessment, and accumulate at least 150 wellness points. The addition to the HRA occurred in early 2017 for successful participants. After careful consideration of usage and awareness of the incentive program, the board has decided to end the wellness incentive for 2018, so it will not be a line item in the 2019 budget.

134 2018 PNWAC FINANCIAL REPORTS AND ACTIONS N-5

HealthFlex Claims Performance Our conference Healthflex claims rate took a sharp upward blip in 2016 to 132%, due primarily to 7 large claims. Historically since 2011, when we switched to the Consumer Driven Health Plan, our claims had been averaging 71.4%, which is why we have received two performance dividends during that time period. The unusually large claims rate in 2016 has resulted in our first significant rate increase in a number of years. Our medical rates will increase on average 9.8% in 2018. Dental rates will decrease by 1.8% and vision rates will be unchanged. Even with the 9.8% increase the overall increases in rates from 2011 – 2018 is 20%.

2016 Financial Highlights: Balance Sheet / Operating Statement 2016 finished surprisingly strong after the election, so as a result, our balance sheet benefited from the late year surge in the stock market. As of December 31, 2016: • Endowment Earnings of 7% • Apportionment Payments (Pension & Benefits) at 98.47% • Pension Reserve Fund: $3,774,290 • Clergy Retirement Security Plan Endowment: $9,401,279 • Conference Claimants Endowment: $2,246,319 • Health Endowment: $2,794,065 • Total Assets: $19,485,824

Our focus continues to be on building the Pension Reserve Fund so we can weather the inevitable down market years like 2008.

CBO for Alaska Conference Bruce Galvin continues to be the CBO of the Alaska Conference as well as CBO of the PNW Conference.

Apportionments In 2016 we received 98.47% of pension and benefits apportionments from the churches. Thank you for your FINANCIALS continued strong support from all churches who paid their pension and benefit apportionments in full (all but 21 churches). Apportionments are required to pay health benefit premiums for retired clergy and other benefit costs as described earlier. The CBOP continues to recommend apportionment reductions for the Annual Conference budget. Our request to the 2017 Annual Conference for 2018 has been reduced by another $25,000, to $250,000. 10 years ago the pension and benefit apportionment was $675,000!

Retirement So far this year fourteen clergy serving the PNW Conference have indicated their intention to retire during the 7/1/2016 to 6/30/2017 appointment year. We wish them happy retirement. See the list of those seeking retirement in the recommendation section (FF) of the preconference handbook.

Retired pastor Rev. John Shaffer continues to provide capable leadership in ministering to retired clergy. He organizes and hosts the retirees luncheon at annual conference and has authored and sent retirees informative newsletters. He also attends scheduled meetings of the retiree groups throughout the conference. We once again thank John for his service.

Past Service Rate The board has historically recommended an increase in the Past Service Rate for the pre-82 pension plan. The past service rate for 2017 is $725.81 or 1.14% of the Conference Average Compensation (CAC). The conference intends to maintain the PSR at 1.0% of CAC which is no longer required per action at General Conference in 2012. For the past few years the CAC has not increased by 3%; consequently a 3% increase in PSR through 2016 has gradually raised it above 1% of CAC to the benefit of retired clergy. Under 2012 General Conference legislation it is no longer a requirement to raise the past service rate but the CBOP recognizes how important this pension income is for those that retired many years ago. Since the 2017 PSR the annual increase is 2% to help keep pension benefits fully

135 N-6 FINANCIAL REPORTS AND ACTIONS 2018 PNWAC

funded. The 2018 recommended past service rate is $741.00, or 1.14% of the CAC. Details of historical Past Service Rates are available from the CBO upon request.

CBO Evaluation During our March 4th meeting, the Board of Pensions convened a voting member only session. We offered an opportunity for the CBO to bring concerns to the board and to offer our feedback to him. We offered our congratulations to our CBO, Bruce Galvin, for another great year of leadership. The Board authorized the Chairman to work with the conference office to make sure the Assistant Treasurer and other conference personnel as needed are cross-trained on Bruce’s daily duties. This is the first phase of succession planning for Bruce Galvin’s eventual retirement (no current time table is set or anticipated). We will continue to use an annual review process for developing and evaluating the progress on succession planning.

The CBOP is renewing our contract with Bruce Galvin, CFP® and Revelation Financial Planning LLC for the fiscal year beginning July 1, 2017 for $20,100.00 to be used to offer free financial planning to all clergy.

Conclusion The market remains at historically high levels as I write this report. We remain concerned that this rate of market growth is unsustainable and we are “due” for some down years. Our mantra at the Board is to build reserves to weather the down market years and meet our obligations to the retirees now and in the future. The work of this Board will remain integral to meeting the retirement and health needs of the clergy in the coming challenging times. I again thank all board members for their faithful attendance and thoughtful deliberations and contributions.

Carey B. Kolb, Chairperson Conference Board of Pensions FINANCIALS

Conference Board of Trustees Conference trustees have been engaged in a number of property and legal matters over the past year. Title transfers, property tax exemptions as well as deferred maintenance are significant issues as we have local churches close. We currently manage closed property at Lind, Yakima Westpark, Everett Faith, Pacific, Tacoma: 6th Avenue, Walla Walla Grace, and Tacoma St. Paul’s. In addition, the Trustees are responsible for Churches at Pasco and Seattle: Highland Park which have active ministries taking place in them. Local church trustees throughout the conference have been the beneficiaries of the work done by the Treasurer’s office in negotiating the insurance coverage for all the properties in the Annual Conference. Our legal exposure to abuse and misconduct from the past 30 years is another area of concern from both insurance and legal defense points of view. It further solidifies the importance of having good Safe Church practices in place and in active use. Over the last two years the Trustees have become more invested in the work of the Innovation Vitality Team and the work they do planting new churches and reimagining existing ministries. Funding for the majority of this work comes from Trustee assets. The Trustees want to acknowledge the many years of service that Jim Russell has done as Chair of this Body. He has given selflessly to the work in both administrative and physical ways. Thank you, Jim! We would also like to welcome Pat Simpson to the role of Chair. FINANCIALS

DAVID LAWRENCE AASEN ~ was born on May 28, 1923, outside Eau Claire, Wiscon- sin, on the family farm, the youngest of four children (Esther, Ruth, Daniel, David) born to Oscar and Agnes Moe Aasen. He was baptized in the local Lutheran church in Eau Claire but attended the local Pentecostal church as he grew up. His parents allowed the Pentecostals to use their farm grounds for tent meetings, which David attended, listening to fiery Norwegian Pentecostal preaching! David graduated from high school in Eau Claire in 1940, where he gave the valedictorian speech. A couple of years earlier he won a local Elks Club award for memorizing the entire US Constitution and reciting it during the finals, when he was drilled with questions. David earned his Bachelor of Arts in Lit- erature from Goshen College in Indiana, his Bachelor of Divinity from Bethany Biblical Seminary in Chicago, and his Doctorate in Theology from Southwestern Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas. On May 14, 1944 he married Freida P. Kaufman, whom he had met at Great Lakes Bible Institute in Zion, Illinois. They were married until her death in 2003. They had no children. From 1951-1953, Rev. Dr. David Aasen taught at the South Western Bible College in Waxahachi, Texas. From 1953-1957 he was the academic dean at the Northwest Bible College in Seattle, Washington. During this time, he felt a ‘churning inside’ to belong to another national church body: he was becoming dissatisfied with his church’s conserva- tive approach to the Book of Revelation and the end times. Finally, after searching for some time, he settled on the Methodist Church, in part due to the sermons of Rev. Dr. MEMOIRS Cyrus E. Albertson at Seattle: First Methodist. In 1957, he became a probationary member and in 1960, a full member of the PNW Con- ference. He was appointed to the following churches: Pateros; Tukwila: Riverton Park; Edmonds, and Seattle: First. He also served in the Oregon Idaho Conference at Boise: First. Rev. Dr. David officially retired in 1998. In retirement, he served long pastorates at Tracyton and Seattle: Bryn Mawr. In 2010 he fully retired. David was a much-admired leader in the Pacific Northwest. He was a champion of the oppressed, a civil rights advocate, and a devoted churchman. He regularly checked on parishioners when they missed church, letting them know they were missed! His energy was enormous. He did Sunday morning hospital visits to his parishioners, before church during his Seattle: First years. His 6-minute sermons were as engaging as he was. He served churches until he was 87 with little hint of slowing down. He rode a bike in his sport coat, pant leg banded up to avoid the bike chain, red argyle socks showing, to deliver Stewart Bros. coffee (now Seattle’s Best) to Seattle churches for their coffee hours, and to newly appointed Seattle District clergy at their parsonages. The churches would stock their freezers and be grateful for the cost-savings! He ‘pedaled’ the coffee because he had become great friends with the Stewart brothers and because he deeply cared about churches and welcoming his clergy colleagues. 163 O-2 MEMOIRS 2018 PNWAC Early on October 8, 2017, he died in his Magnolia apartment in Seattle, Washington, of natural causes, at the age of 94. He is survived by many nieces and nephews including Patricia Jarnagin and Charles Hawes, as well as by Lucy Heflin, his caregiver the last few years of his life. His funeral was held at the First UMC in Seattle on Saturday, October 21, 2017. Officiat- ing clergy were Bishop Elaine J.W. Stanovsky, Rev. Jeremy D. Smith, Rev. Troy Lynn Carr and Rev. Gloria H. Kymn, as well as Rev. Ron Marshall, First Lutheran Church, West Seattle.

LAURIE YVONNE JONES ALEONA ~ was born in Aberdeen, Washington on Decem- ber 27, 1939 to Theron William Jones and Leona Mae Jones. Laurie grew up with her older brother Theron, in Brady, Washington and went to school in Montesano, where she graduated from Montesano High School in 1957. After high school, Laurie attended Grays Harbor Community College, later earning a BA in Christian Education at War- ner Pacific College, Portland. From 1962 to 1964, Laurie served in the Peace Corps in Bogotá, Colombia. She obtained her Master’s Degree from Scarritt College for Christian Workers, and while in Nashville, she met her husband Robert L. Clark, Jr. After they were married, they relocated to Pomona, California, but were often separated due to Robert’s military service in another state. The couple welcomed their only daughter, Laura Leanne in January 1969. Their marriage ended in 1972. In 1972, Laurie worked as Director of Christian Education at the Scottsdale UMC, which began a long career of Christian ministry. From 1975-1978, Laurie attended the Clare- mont School of Theology; after graduation Laurie served the following churches in the PNW Annual Conference: Wenatchee: First, associate; Omak Riverside - Conconully; Seattle: Magnolia-Capitol Hill; Seattle: Capitol Hill; Vashon; and Manson. Following a leave, she retired in 2006. Laurie made many good friends among and outside of her church family. In Omak, she played cornet for the Village Green Marching Band, who happily declared that they never practiced. She lead youth group and organized everything from weekly meetings in the church to fall harvest hay rides and cider pressing. She organized a big trip for the church youth to visit Seattle, in order to give them new experiences. At the parsonage, she used the large backyard for a vegetable garden, full of fresh vegetables every summer and fall. Over the years, Laurie’s creative spirit compelled her art and her love of making things: sewing clothes, crafting wooden furniture, crafting useful, household items, creating art, painting and coloring. She enjoyed fixing things, home improvement, gardening, and MEMOIRS being with her pets. She participated in choirs, chorales and with various non-formal con- cert bands. Some of Laurie’s other favorite activities were visits with friends near and far, continuing education & scholarly events, and travelling: she returned to Colombia in the late 80’s, she visited several countries in South America, Mexico, Canada, and she took a spiritual heritage lecture tour to Scotland, England, Wales and Ireland that was a very special adventure for her. After living in the Wenatchee Valley in her retirement, Laurie moved in 2012 to Tacoma, to live with her daughter and son-in-law. Laurie Y.J. Aleona (née Jones, a.k.a. Laurie J. Clark) having survived a life-threatening motor scooter accident, breast cancer and losing a spleen to a motorcycle accident, passed away on Wednesday, October 4, 2017 after suffering from Alzheimer’s for several years. She was preceded in death by her mother and father, and her cousin Nan Smith (Winfrey).

Those who knew Kel will understand that he wanted to be remembered for caring about the earth and all living creatures, though he didn’t appreciate tomato bugs. He recycled as much as he could and tried to live in peace with his neighbors. When he messed up, he was in awe of the forgiveness and grace he received. He was one that continued to love swishing through piles of leaves in the fall, kicking rocks down the street, flying kites and blowing bubbles.

Gene had a passion and a talent for organizing events, but he said his greatest joy was

MEMOIRS found in sharing with people one-on-one, learning about their lives and “seeing how things were going with them.” Gifted with an incredible baritone voice, Gene sang in and directed choirs most of his adult life. He would often be asked to sing what became his signature songs, including “There’s a Balm in Gilead.” Gene was known for his boister- ous, infectious laugh and playful spirit.

LARRY MICHAEL WARREN ~ was born in Bonne Terre, Missouri, the first of two sons, to Orson Wesley and Ruth Margaret Warren on November 25, 1946. Larry graduated from Lincoln University, Jefferson City, Missouri with a BA in History. It was there that his understanding of racial discrimination and inequality was shaped by being a white minority student at a historically black college. On campus when Martin Luther King Jr. was assassinated, Larry reassured community leaders that the students were too full of grief to create any trouble. His deep emotional reaction to hearing “Precious Lord” was always a reminder of that time. His college was paid for by an ROTC scholarship and during four years of obligation as an artillery officer in the U.S. Army, Larry was stationed in Germany with access to nuclear codes. This experience led him to become a lifelong pacifist. He returned to Kansas City, Missouri to study for his Master of Di- vinity degree from St. Paul School of Theology, where, through the impact of Dr. Tex Sample, he developed his passion for social justice. In 1976, a phone call from the Rev. Dan Smith, District Superintendent of the Spokane District brought Larry to the Pacific Northwest Annual Conference.

Chandler-Warren served together as co-pastors of Renton: First would be remembered as the highlight of their ministries. Wherever Larry served, he loved the role of teaching and continued to offer Disciple Bible Study classes through May of 2017. He guided countless people through Wesleyan Covenant Groups. His love of scripture and understanding the uncondition-

MEMOIRS al grace led him to care for the least of these, to speak out for immigration reform, to engage in prison ministry and to work for the full inclusion of all persons in the life of the church. The best kind of life-time learner, Larry would be seen reading a book about historic figures on the floor of Annual Conference, or at the side of an empty sanctuary waiting for meetings to begin. Suffering renal failure in February of 2014, Larry persevered, hoping for a potential kidney donor. With the support of his medical team, he and Bonnie were able to travel to California, Mexico and Hawaii while he was on dialysis. Hospitalized for the fourth time in four months, Larry died of cardiac arrest on Thursday, June 29, 2017, at St. Peter’s Hospital, Olympia. He slipped peacefully from his suffering.

LAITY IN THE LIFE OF THE CONFERENCE WHO HAVE DIED SINCE THE LAST ANNUAL CONFERENCE ENGENE (GENE) JOSEPH BRATT ~ died on October 18, 2017 in Edmonds, WA. He was born on July 18, 1928. After a distinguished career in the United States Marine Corp, Gene retired to Edmonds, where he started his second career in the insurance industry. He and wife Muriel joined the Edmonds UMC.

From 1995-2004 Gene was a Trustee of Wesley Homes, serving as President of the Board from 2001-2003. Gene was also serving as President of the Conference Board of Trustees at the same time. A little-known fact in our Conference history: Gene Bratt, as President of the Conference Board of Trustees, one day returned from a meeting of the United Methodist Association of Health and Welfare Ministries, on behalf of Wesley Homes, and surfaced the idea of a Conference Office building for the PNW on the campus of Wesley Homes in Des Moines, WA. The Conference Trustees had been conducting research into abandoned churches or other suitable facilities for offices and had not found a solution. While at the meeting in North Carolina, Gene noticed that the Western North Carolina Conference Offices were located on the campus of their retirement complex. The rest is history. With a steady hand 174 2018 PNWAC MEMOIRS O-13 and a great relationship with Wesley Homes, Gene and the Conference Trustees brought about the new Conference Offices for the Greater Northwest Area, onto the Wesley Cam- pus in Des Moines, WA.

LANORA MARIE (ROPER) CALLAHAN ~ was also known as GREENIE to her children, grandchildren, great-granddaughter, and 6 different foreign exchange students and all their friends. She came into this world as a very thoughtful and considerate baby. She was thoughtful enough to delay her arrival until her mother Marie and father Homer had completed the fall ranching chores of shearing the sheep and goats and weaning all the baby calves; considerate enough to arrive early so as to avoid disrupting already established plans for Thanksgiving dinner. Lanora was born in Mineral Wells, Texas on November 17, 1935. Lanora broke a family record by being the first in the Roper family to be born in an actual hospital. All of her kin folks had been born on one of the family ranches. The family ranch home, where her father was born on Christmas day, 1897, still stands south east of Jacksboro, Texas. Lanora’s family moved into Ft. Worth, Texas so the girls, Lanora and her sister, could attend elementary, Jr. High, and High School in something more than the local one room school house serving her ranch community. During High School and part of her college years Lanora water skied competitively at the National Level, garnering National Top Ten awards in 1956 and 1957. Lanora graduated from the University of North Texas with a Bachelor of Science degree in Home Economics in 1958. She married Robert Callahan in the Polytechnic Methodist Church in Ft. Worth shortly after graduation. The choice of the Methodist Church was a compromise between Lanora’s Baptist affiliation and Bob’s Presbyterian affiliation. They subsequently attended numerous Presbyteri- MEMOIRS an Churches as they moved from base to base in Bob’s 26-year military career flying with the US Navy. Upon retirement from the Navy, they moved to Eatonville and joined the Methodist Church. They have been members of the Eatonville UMC for 40 years. Lanora served as lay leader for the Eatonville UMC for 36 years and served as the District Lay Leader for the Tacoma District for over 25 years. During her tenure as District Lay Lead- er, she attended each local church’s charge conference in the Tacoma District every year, except in 2017 when she was no longer able to drive herself. In the intervening 40 years in Eatonville, Lanora served on every Eatonville UMC committee in some capacity. Most notably, Lanora was Chair of the Advisory Council, Chair of the Staff-Parish Relations Committee and Sunday School Superintendent for over 20 years. This Annual Conference is the first without Lanora R. Callahan in attendance in 33 years. Lanora was truly committed to God. In her own words, “My priorities in life are: 1. GOD, 2. Church, 3. Bob and Family, and 5. everything else in no particular order.” Lanora and Bob have two daughters, 4 grandchildren, and 1 great-granddaughter. As one visitor at Lanora’s Celebration of Life service remarked, “Saint Lanora is gone. We call her Saint Lanora because anyone that could put up with a Navy Fighter Pilot for almost 60 years must surely be a saint.” Lanora R. Callahan passed away on February 19, 2018 at the age of 82.

175 O-14 MEMOIRS 2018 PNWAC RICHARD PENTECOST FERGUSON ~ was born on August 1, 1925 in Springfield, Ohio to Bessie Louisa Thompson Ferguson and Wallace Virgil James Ferguson. He was the youngest of the nine children in his family. Voted most likely to succeed at Springfield High School, he was drafted into the US Army during WWII, 1944-1947, honorably dis- charged and enrolled in pre-dentistry at Ohio State University. Graduating with a Bach- elor of Science degree, he enrolled at Meharry Medical College in Nashville, TN and earned a Doctor of Dental Surgery with honors. He was the first African American dentist in the Air Force, the first African American Colonel in the Dental Corps of the Air Force and served as senior consultant in orthodontics for the United States Air Force in Europe while assigned to Wiesbaden Hospital in Germany. He was the chairperson of the Council on Ethics and Membership for the American Association of Orthodontists. He received many awards, recognitions and honors in his lifetime, but his true passions were family, justice and equality, and advocating for the University of Washington to accept minority and women students into the Dental School. Richard and Phyllis Simons met on February 9 and he proposed on February 29, 1952: love at first sight! They were married 65 years and had one son and three daughters, Nor- man, Kay, Jocelyn and Jennifer; as well as one granddaughter Alana. Richard and Phyllis and their family have been members of Sand Point Community Methodist Church in Seattle since 1968. Richard served as Sand Point UMC’s Chair of the Finance committee and ushered on Sunday mornings. He served on the Conference Board of Ordained Min- istry, the Wesley Homes Board of Trustees, and The Institute for Ecumenical Theological Studies at Seattle University. Richard even traveled with Phyllis to Zimbabwe, Africa with the Jubilate Choir. In 1996, Richard P. Ferguson received The Bishop’s Award from then Bishop, Calvin D. McConnell. The particular professional service which compelled people to suggest him for the award was the leadership role he took on behalf of providing dental care and pre- ventative care for children in low-income families, some whom had never seen a dentist. Entitled THE SMILE MOBILE – MILES OF SMILES, the unique mobile service which STILL moves around the State of Washington, was created by Dental Services and the Washington State Dental Service Foundation. The brightly painted clinic featured three state-of-the-art dental operatory stations and includes X-ray facilities. A full-time dentist and team of local volunteer dentists and their staffs provide a range of dental services from examinations to fillings to minor oral surgery for children ages 13 and younger. Dr. Ferguson involved the PNW Conference in this program by organizing a number of local churches as sites for the mobile clinic. The churches offer their facilities as reception area waiting room and provide volunteers for a number of support functions. For his service,

MEMOIRS vision, and willingness to serve effectively, he was honored by the PNW Conference. His family remembers Richard as a very loving husband, father and grandfather. He was a calm, gentle, gracious, forgiving and honorable person, full of integrity, respect and dignity. Even in his final days, he was concerned that his family would be provided with loving care. Richard loved to hunt and fish, travel and camp with the family. The children recall those camping trips as their favorite vacations. Richard P. Ferguson died on Sep- tember 30, 2017 in Seattle. He is survived by his wife of 65 years, Mrs. Phyllis Simons Ferguson and their four children, Norman Richard, Kay Madelyn, Jocelyn Patricia and Jennifer Ann Ferguson; granddaughter Alana and family, and daughter-in-law Monica Wetzel and family as well as many nieces and nephews and extended family. His memorial service was held on October 14, 2017 at the family’s church: Sand Point Community UMC. Officiating clergy were Bishop Melvin G. Talbert and Rev. Janelle M. Kurtz.

ROBIN KERRY (FRISBIE) GALVIN ~ beloved spouse of Bruce R. Galvin, (PNW Con- ference Benefits Officer) passed away suddenly on March 6, 2018 in Seattle, WA. Robin 176 2018 PNWAC MEMOIRS O-15 was born in Spokane on October 25, 1948 and at the age of 2 moved with her parents, Bob and Gloria Frisbie, to the Phinney Ridge neighborhood where she lived most of her life. She became a member of Woodland Park UMC in the 1960’s. She graduated from Lincoln High School in 1966 and received her bachelor’s degree from Western Washing- ton University as a speech therapist in 1970.

Bruce and Robin were blessed with a son, Matthew Robert Galvin in 1975. Robin was a wonderful mother and stayed home with Matt the first five years of his life. It was during this time that Robin’s health was compromised by Hodgkin’s disease. She was cured of the disease, but the heavy doses of chemotherapy and radiation took their toll and left her heart damaged later in life. Robin loved to garden, sing, travel, quilt, research genealogy, write about Father Christmas, and was a fabulous cook, a skill which she passed on to Matt. She was the rock of her family and carried a kind heart and a gentle soul. She volunteered at the Phinney Ridge Neighborhood Center and was a lifelong member of the UMC, the last 40 years as a member of Crown Hill UMC in north Seattle. Robin’s favorite scripture was First Corinthians: 13. She was a beloved member of the support staff at the Conference office every year at Annual Conference time, grace-filled and steady as a rock during some of the busiest months for the Conference Office. As a result of her battle with Hodgkin’s, she was appreciative of every day and of every experience that the day brought to her. She always had a smile on her face and a wonderful demeanor. Robin suffered from memory loss the last few years of her life, but she could still make people laugh with her one-line zingers and her made-up Scandinavian language. She benefited from local memory loss programs at Elderwise and the Green- wood Senior Center. She enjoyed walking the neighborhood with Bruce, visiting with the dogs they met, coloring in adult coloring books and appreciating sunrises and sunsets. She is survived by her beloved husband, Bruce, their son, Matthew (Akiko), her two sisters Janis Holley and Denise (Bob) Mager. Her father and mother pre-deceased her.

DISCONTINUED CHURCHES WILD ROSE UNITED METHODIST CHURCH, DEER PARK, WASHINGTON ~ The Wild Rose UMC (earlier known as the Methodist-Episcopal Church) had its beginning in 1889 according to the PNW Conference and was organized by the Rev. Milton S. Anderson. In 1892, plans were made for building their own church. The building was completed, but sadly was struck by lightning and burned in 1908. Another building was constructed in 1914 and still stands today at the corner of Wild Rose Road and North Monroe Road on the Wild Rose Prairie. In 1899, Wild Rose became a mother church and assisted in organizing a Methodist Church in Deer Park, WA. In 1989, the church’s Centennial celebration was held and celebrated in the seventy-five-year-old building.

MEMOIRS A renovation project was completed in 2014, and a celebration was held at that time for one-hundred-and-twenty-five years as a church and one-hundred-years in the building. Attendance did not increase following the renovation, however, and the small group remaining could no longer continue. The last worship service took place on August 13, 2017 and was led by Sharon Arnold with the assistance of Gayle Libutti, church members and former pastors. The Deconsecrating of the building was led by Inland District Super- intendent, Rev. Gregg Sealey.

WESTPARK UNITED METHODIST CHURCH, YAKIMA, WASHINGTON ~ On October 6, 1902, 13 members of the Nob Hill Congregation of the Evangelical Church met in the home of Rev. and Mrs. H.C. Weber. The following June 1903, the founding members constructed their first small building at a cost of $800, followed by a parsonage two years later that cost $1,090.49. In these earliest years, the church was served by German-born pastors. 180 2018 PNWAC MEMOIRS O-19 As the church grew, a larger building was needed and in 1908, the congregation began erecting a new church building on Summitview Avenue. A new parsonage was built across the street in 1922. The merging in 1946 of the Evangelical Church and the United Brethren resulted in the formation of the Evangelical United Brethren and the expanding of the congregation’s denominational base. In 1956, church members broke ground for the construction of a new, larger church several blocks away near the corner of Summitview and 40th Avenues. On January 27, 1957, the congregation walked from the old church to the new for their first worship service. In that same year, the church changed its name from Nob Hill to Westpark Evangelical United Brethren. The merger of the Evangelical United Brethren and the Methodist Church in 1968 led again to a broadening in denominational affiliation and another name change. Throughout its history, the church was known for fine worship, strong bible teaching and supporting missions both locally and around the world. A highlight of the church year was the annual Harvest Festival Service, where the chancel area was filled with beautiful displays of orchard fruit and flowers. In 2000, the congregation started Westpark Christian Academy (WCA), a private Chris- tian school serving preschool-12th graders representing a variety of backgrounds and pre- senting varying degrees of special needs. Through the years it became the congregation’s primary mission and ministry, with church members intimately involved with the daily running of the school. Although the church has closed, WCA continues on successfully in a new location as West Chestnut Christian Academy.

GARFIELD UNITED METHODIST CHURCH, GARFIELD, WASHINGTON ~ Be- ginning about the year 1870, settlers came into the Palouse country from all parts of the United States. The majority came from the central states in oxcarts via the Oregon Trail. A number came from western Oregon, which had been settled as early as 1834.

Garfield was at first connected with Palouse, the pastor residing in Palouse. The first MEMOIRS pastor, appointed to Garfield and Palouse in 1881, was Reverend W.J. White. The first meetings were held in the first school house. This building was used by all itinerant preachers until 1885, when the Baptist church was erected. The Baptists and Methodists used this building jointly until 1889. Reverend White organized Sunday school classes in Garfield and preached a sermon after the classes. A Journal entry dated February 25, 1883 records, “$2 was requested to fund testaments for the five church school classes for children and adults. Funds in the amount of $3 were collected and a motion was made to use some of the extra funds to acquire a ‘secretary’s book’”. The third pastor, Reverend F.L Young, was appointed to the circuit in 1888. He organized the Sunday school class at Garfield into a church. Garfield got its first pastor, Reverend W.R. Phelps, in September 1889. Members were received that same year. In 1891, articles of incorporation were drawn up. By then, the church had 17 members. H. L.S. Gwinn sold the current lots to the Garfield church March 19, 1891 for $1,891 and the first church building was erected on the premises occupied by the present building. The current brick veneer building was erected for a cost of $11,000 in 1912. The church choir has always been a core activity of Garfield UMC. Member comments include: “Every Wednesday night choir practice was such fun.” “John Elwood had informed the choir, ‘People who sing music live longer’.” “It was so good to be with music and such wonderful people to be around.” 181 O-20 MEMOIRS 2018 PNWAC Garfield UMC has always made important contributions to the community. Church members served on the Garfield School Board and WA State School Board for many years. In the 60’s, church bazaars, fashion shows and mother-daughter and father-son banquets were huge events. High school students stayed up all night after Prom and then attended the Easter sunrise service and Easter breakfast. Over its 138-year history, Garfield has had 63 pastors. It grew steadily from the 1890’s until the 1980’s. The church really flourished during the 1940’s and into the 1980’s. In the 1980’s, a spiritual awakening movement drew off a number of members and the membership declined to about 75. Despite the losses in membership, important contributions to the community were made during the 1980’s and 1990’s—including setting up the EMT program and after seven years of effort, the Ladow Assisted Living Center. In the 21st century, membership declined to 35-40, then to about 15-20 and finally to fewer than 10. Still, important contributions to the community were made during this final period. A child care center was established which will continue after ownership of the building is transferred to the Town of Garfield. The musical heritage of Garfield UMC will continue as the sanctuary becomes an event center for the town. MEMOIRS

186 2018 PNWAC HISTORICAL Q-1 Q. HISTORICAL The Pacific Northwest Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church is a continu- ation of the work of the Methodist Church and The Evangelical United Brethren Church and their predecessor churches in Washington and Northern Idaho. Although these two churches united in 1968 to form The United Methodist Church, it was not until 1971 that their successor conferences in this area participated in a merger which joined the Wash- ington-northern Idaho portion of the Pacific Northwest Annual Conference (E), formerly EUC, with the Pacific Northwest Annual Conference (M), formerly Methodist, to form the present Conference. Pertinent historical data is to be found in the journals of this Conference and its prede- cessors. The 1972 Journal of the Pacific Northwest Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church brings together material concerning all of its predecessor conferences.

APPENDIX A. REPORT FROM CONFERENCE STATISTICS

Conference statistics shows a shift in the size categories of our churches and a continuing trend of decline in overall attendance.

Using the designations Corporate (351+), Program (151-350), Pastoral (51-150), and Family (up to 50), here’s the data. You will also see the annual total of reported Baptisms across the Conference.

Designation 2013 2014 2015 2016 2017 Corporate (351+) 2 2 1 1 1 Program (151-350) 27 27 26 23 24 Pastoral (51-150) 110 114 118 104 92 Family (< 51) 99 104 109 117 115

Conference Baptisms 502 476 398 347 390

In 2013 there were 56 churches with average weekly attendance of 100 or more. In 2017 we have 49 churches with average weekly attendance of 100 or more. This number is significant as it is the number generally accepted as the number needed to sustain a full-

time ordained pastor. STATISTICS
