Board of Congregational Development and Church Vitality<\/strong>
Kristina Gonzales, GNW Executive Director of Innovation and Vitality, reported on support for church planters\u2014a collaborative effort involving three conferences. This is the work of equity, she said, that involves an intentional, inter-cultural learning process.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Current efforts include \u201cequity cohorts\u201d to bring us closer to our vision as a faith community\u2014where everyone has an abundant life. Participants in a video spoke about the importance of \u201clistening,\u201d \u201cleading with curiosity, not judgment,\u201d \u201cmoving from a mono-cultural to multicultural lens,\u201d and \u201ctrying to change the world, not just interpret it.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Church Properties Task Force<\/strong>
Rev. Kathy Neary, task force chair, shared it will be important to care for churches that are ending and prepare for new models. The old church building model, congregation and pastor are not the future. She said we need to act now to imagine Christ\u2019s incarnation in new ways throughout the UMC.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In other presentations:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Celebrating Retirees<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    Rev. Shelia Marie opened the retirement service with a powerful message about how she became a local pastor. It was like the scripture about the woman at the well\u2014an unexpected moment when a woman thirsty for water encounters Jesus. He promises she will never be thirsty again if she drinks the water he provides.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Thirsty for a new chapter in her life, Shelia recalled her own water moment. She was retiring from a secular career and wondered what to do next. Sitting at a table waiting for a glass of water before dinner arrived, she heard God\u2019s invitation to ministry.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    She said yes to this unexpected invitation. Twelve years later, she is retiring from ministry. \u201cWe each have a story,\u201d she said. Each story is unique and an encounter with Jesus that changes everything.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Bishop Cedrick Bridgeforth offered prayers of gratitude and thanks to all the retirees for their faithful service.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Afternoon Plenary<\/strong><\/h4>\n\n\n\n

    PNW Lay Delegate to General Conference Skylar Marston-Bihl helps to communicate the delegation report to members.<\/em><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<\/div>\n\n\n

    News from the General Conference (Charlotte, NC)<\/strong>
    First-elected PNW Delegate Rev. Elizabeth Ingram Schindler reminded all that the delegation voted for inclusivity, but others had blazed the trail long before. But trails can become overgrown, she said. It is the work of everyone here to keep those vines from growing back. \u201cWe did not complete the work; we just brought it to a new chapter. Now, the rest of you are to carry on with the work.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    PNW Lay Delegate Skylar Marston-Bihl said there were three significant priorities: pass revised Social Principles, address Regionalization, and remove harmful language in The<\/em> Book of Discipline<\/em>. \u201cWe came back with all three. We went to neutral. We removed the harmful language. It is just neutral,\u201d she said. \u201cIt\u2019s time to find beloved-ness together.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    A move toward regionalization began. Brant Henshaw said regionalization requires modification to the church constitution, with a 2\/3rds approval vote from every global member worldwide. Regionalization would allow each region to vote on issues pertaining solely to it. Voting could be happening soon. Rev. Gregg Sealey said sacramental authority for deacons was also approved. A new retirement plan for clergy was voted in. The first Black female president of the Council of Bishops was elected, and the first Filipino American presider, Bishop Carlo Rapanut, was celebrated.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The bishop reaffirmed that the Safe Harbor Program will continue as other conferences develop rules for implementing the Board of Disciplines changes.<\/p>\n\n\n

    Creation Care Update<\/strong>
    Creation Justice Task Force Co-Chair Rev. Paul Mitchell said he is bringing living water! \u201cWe believe this has been a fruitful few months,\u201d he said. Sophia Agtarap, the co-chair, said 35 percent of churches have committees addressing Creation Care and Justice, a majority are making changes, and 25 percent are willing to start green practices. Eighty percent identified a lack of funding to do these things. The Commission is endorsing church actions such as adding solar panels. They are supporting local churches in finding grants to do this work. The Faith Foundation is involved.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    The presentation concluded with representatives lifting \u201cwash tubs\u201d labeled: Clergy, Laity, Funders, Staff and You. \u201cWe need each one of you to carry water any way you know how \u201cAgtarap said in an emotional reflection and plea. \u201cTo thrive will require the involvement of all.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    In other actions:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

      \n
    • Petition #11, Environmental Stewardship from the Ground Up, concurrence recommended by focus session. Passed.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
