MINISTERIAL DEVELOPMENT IN THE CHURCH OF THE NAZARENE The paradigm for developing future pastors in the Church of the Nazarene has moved from a content-based preparation to a competency-based preparation and evaluation. The Course of Study (COS) for ministerial preparation now includes four areas of evaluation for each student: Content – intellectual development and application Competency – skill development and application Character – personal spiritual formation and modeling Context – cultural understanding and application of mission 67 Within each of these four areas, numerous outcomes or abilities have been written to provide overall evaluation of each student’s progress. ELIGIBILITY The District Ministerial Studies Board (DMSB) serves only students properly enrolled in the COS. Enrollment is open only to local ministers, deacons who qualify according to the Manual, and ministers of music who qualify according to the Manual. INSTRUCTION The DMSB oversees the preparation of both elder and deacon candidates. Ministers will not be ordained without having completed their validated courses of study. The COS educational records are to be kept on the district where the licensed minister is actively serving. Once a candidate graduates, the ordaining district will hold and preserve the COS records in their archives. Annual renewal of the commission as a minister of music is subject either to having completed the validated course of study in the deacon track or showing evidence of pursuing it. MODES OF STUDY The recommended mode of preparation for full-time Christian service is pursuing a validated COS and an undergraduate degree at a Nazarene liberal arts college or university, followed by graduate studies at Nazarene Theological Seminary in Kansas City, Missouri. In some situations, other modes of study may be considered favorable: Nazarene Bible College in Colorado Springs, Colorado (on campus or on-line), the validated district training program, or Northwest Nazarene University’s on-line COS. Participation in the NNU on-line programs requires written approval from the district. In consultation with your adviser on the DMSB, you may also design a mixed program from validated curricula involving the above options. (See www.nazarenepastor.org or contact Clergy Development for a complete list of validated programs for the course of study.) COLLEGE/UNIVERSITY STUDENTS Each college/university has specific majors that have been validated as meeting requirements of the course of study. Students enrolled at the college/university must consult with their academic advisor to insure that their particular major meets course of study requirements. Yearly updates should be submitted to the DMSB by the student showing completed course work. The final transcript at graduation will be evaluated by the DMSB for completion of a validated curriculum, and requirements stated in the current Manual will not be waived. College/university students are responsible to submit to the DMSB 68 documentary evidence of academic standing in harmony with Manual and the SMD 439. Furthermore, students must demonstrate acquisition of the abilities for ministerial education listed in the Manual and the SMD. Graduation from a validated college/university ministerial education program fulfills the ministerial education requirements for ordination. IV.

States that the pastor’s salary be reviewed semi-annually but churches operate on an annual budget. Dr. Crocker responded that the church board has the authority to review as often as they like. The District Treasurer, Howard Porter, stated to the Assembly that this is the minimum suggestion. A further comment was received from the floor stating that if the church finances increase, the budget could likewise be adjusted. B. Paragraph A. 4. States that business and industry assume all or most of the costs of hospital and medical care plans for their employees and that the churches should do no less for their ministers and other professional staff people. The statement from the floor was that this is no longer a true statement and asked this be reconsidered at the next meeting of this Board. C. The question asked from the floor, “Is salary the mean income or are the other items a part of the total salary package?” The response is that the salary should be construed by the pastor with the advice of his/her accountant in most economically advantageous manner but these other items should be considered for inclusion of the package. The church board should consider everything and not just how much the pastor is paid weekly. The adoption of the report was then approved. 9. Report from Adrian New Life Church: Rev.

PLAQUE PRESENTATION AND CORSAGE PINNED This year I am presenting a lifetime achievement award for outstanding service to God, the church and to the Georgia District. This person exemplifies Christ and is a giant in the Church of the Nazarene. 87 Dr. Edward Husband was born in Ovett, Mississippi. He attended the Institute of West Virginia where he received his calling to become a minister. L. Walker. In 1964 he married Mary After they married Mary stayed with Dr. Ed’s mother and became a school teacher while he completed his studies to become ordained. In 1967, he received his ordination in the Church of the Nazarene in Meridian, Mississippi. Before coming to Gainesville, Georgia in 1969, Dr. Husband pastored churches in Florida, Louisiana and Tennessee. with establishing a new church. When he moved to Gainesville, Georgia he was charged He labored in building Gainesville Bethel Church of the Nazarene brick by brick and person by person. Dr. Husband has the personality and countenance that easily draws people and during his tenure in Gainesville he received prestigious community awards for his involvement in the community. In the early 1980s Pastor Husband received another call. It was a call that would change the face of the Church of the Nazarene and its mission to reach all people. Because of his work in Gainesville, Georgia, Dr. Husband accepted the challenge to build and establish Urban Mission churches throughout the U. S. To accomplish this he started G.U.M. (Georgia Urban Missions). As part of this expanded ministry he began to plant African American congregations all over Georgia and the Southeast. In 1981, he moved to East Point, Georgia to pastor East Point Church of the Nazarene and he continues to mentor and train pastors across the Southeast. Dr. Husband became the Director of Multi-cultural Ministries for the Georgia District Church of the Nazarene and helped propel the mission of the church to reach other nationalities. Today he has helped to establish not just African American Churches of the Nazarene, but also Haitian and Hispanic churches across the Georgia District and the Southeast. He has served on the Board of Ministerial Studies, the Georgia Missions Board and the District Advisory Board. Dr. Husband’s testimony of being saved and sanctified under the Blood of Jesus Christ is up to date and he continues as pastor of the East Point Church of the Nazarene, works untiringly with multi-cultural congregations throughout Georgia and established, the East Point Church of the Nazarene in Haiti. In 2006 Rev. Edward Trevecca Nazarene University. Husband was awarded the Doctor of Divinity Degree from Dr. Husband continues to teach and train ministers for the Church of the Nazarene. Dr. and Mrs. Husband will celebrate fifty years of marriage June 20th. Mary has been a vital part of Dr. Husband’s ministry across the years. She, too, is ordained in the Church of the Nazarene and has a ministry to women and the underprivileged. One of the points of Dr. Husband’s ministry that he is fond of is the seminar he provides to men on “How to Be King of Your Castle”. Unfortunately, “Miss” Mary issues a disclaimer for this seminar and does not approve of his philosophical approach to being “King”. 88 In their marriage four children, Edwina, Edward, Eric, and Eleanor, were born and they have four grandchildren. Today, on behalf of Georgia Nazarenes, we recognize and honor one man who made a difference for Jesus and the Church of the Nazarene.

Manuel Johnson IV. SOME FINAL THOUGHTS We have gathered this evening to celebrate 100 years of proclaiming Heart Holiness in the State of Georgia. The Holiness Movement originated in the 1830s. In Boston, Methodist minister Timothy Merritt began publishing the Guide to Christian Perfection, a monthly. In New York City, Phoebe Palmer led the influential Tuesday meeting for the Promotion of Holiness and promoted a holiness revival through her writings and travels. The holiness movement spread into the South and Midwest through the advocacy of the National Camp Meeting Association for the Promotion of Holiness, founded by Methodist ministers in 1867 after a successful camp meeting at Vineland, New Jersey, attended by thousands. State and regional holiness camps and associations soon proliferated the Southeast. In 1883 William A. Dodge and others founded the Georgia Holiness Association and published a paper, The Way of Life. During this time, Leona Shingler, wife of businessman T. J. Shingler, organized an independent congregation in Donalsonville, Georgia, with nine charter members. She was not only the new church’s driving force, but she preached the Wesleyan-holiness message throughout Decatur County and adjacent areas over the next several years. To guide the church’s doctrine and polity, a Discipline was agreed upon and published. In 1906, the Donalsonville church united with the Holiness Church of Christ, a Southern denomination that had its headquarters at Pilot Point, Texas. southern church now extended from Georgia to New Mexico. As a result, the T. J. Shingler helped finance the southern denomination’s mission in Chiapas, Mexico, by underwriting the costs of constructing a new church and parsonage in Tonala, Mexico. 91 In October 1907, Shingler was one of seven Southern delegates to attend the First General Assembly in Chicago, where the Pentecostal Church of the Nazarene was formed through the union of eastern and western holiness bodies. In 1908, the Second General Assembly was held at Pilot Point, Texas. The southern church merged with the Pentecostal Church of the Nazarene in an emotional and joyous service. Seven southern districts were formed at Pilot Point. Rev. H. H. Sumlin was appointed superintendent of the Southeastern District, encompassing Florida and Georgia. Dr. Hiram F. Reynolds was the first general superintendent to visit the new district and presided at the first district assembly. The Southeastern District had 12 churches by 1912. First Church in Miami, Florida. All were in Georgia except for That same year, following his wife’s death, T. J. Shingler established Shingler Academy, a holiness school in Donalsonville. It grew into a college. The Southeastern District was divided in 1915, creating the Georgia and Florida Districts. The first superintendents were W. R. Hanson, E. H. Kunkel, and C. B. Jernigan, one of the denominations leading founders. In 1917, the school in Donalsonville became Southeastern Nazarene College. It was led at that time by Dr. E. P. Ellyson, who had served from 1908-1911 as the denomination’s third general superintendent. The college merged with Trevecca Nazarene College (now University) in 1918 so that there would be one strong Nazarene college in the Southeast. (SARAH CALLIS – 3 MIN) The most notable early district superintendent in Georgia was Oscar Hudson who served from 1927 to 1931. evangelists. They were He and his wife, Nettie, were well-known and widely respected both preachers. Upon his election, Hudson priority would be to establish a strong central church in Atlanta. acquired a Tin Lizzie Ford. stated that his A year later, Hudson He reported to the 1928 district assembly that he had traveled over 12,000 miles, preached 72 times in Atlanta and 69 times elsewhere during the year. The Hudson’s conducted revivals throughout the district and led home mission campaigns. In one such campaign in Waycross, Georgia a young Charles H. Strickland was converted during a home mission revival conducted by Rev. Hudson. That young Charles Strickland was elected to the Office of General Superintendent in 1972 at Miami, Florida. District membership nearly doubled during Hudson’s tenure. Subsequent district superintendents were P. P. Belew, W. H. Davis, Mack Anderson, Jack H. Lee, Harold D. Latham, J. Fred Huff, and Roy E. Rogers. In the early years the district and its churches were partially subsidized by the denomination’s Department of Home Missions but by 1932 the Georgia District was strong 92 enough to stand on its own. There were 37 churches by 1937 and a district membership of slightly below 1500, including a new work in Columbia, South Carolina. The first work in South Carolina shows up in the Georgia District Minutes in 1932, when Columbia, S. C., appears in the list of pastoral arrangements made for the Georgia District. There is no statistical information on this church in the statistical table, and it is not listed in the 1933 journal but it appears again in 1934 and from there onward. In the 1933 journal, Chester, S. C. shows up and District Superintendent P. P. Belew’s report to the assembly states: “a tent meeting was conducted in Chester, S. C. which resulted in a great revival and the organization of a church with twenty-five members. Brother H. E. Crump was placed in charge as pastor, and the membership has since increased to forty.” In 1934 Chester and Columbia are both listed. Chester still has 40 members; Columbia has 31. In 1935 the following South Carolina churches are added: Rock Hill and Winnsboro. The pastor at Winnsboro, S.C. is E. N. Gunter. He was the father of Dr. Moody Gunter. In 1937: New Brookland, S.C. church added In 1938: Langley and West Columbia, S. C. churches were added. The work in South Carolina originated as part of the Georgia District. South Carolina exited from the Georgia District in 1941. In 2013 the combined membership of what used to be called the Southeast District, which was comprised of Florida, South Carolina and Georgia, was 58,356. The Georgia District had 90 churches and a membership of 9,225. From “just under 1500” to 58,356 members. Praise the Lord! In 1902 Mrs. Leona Shingler probably never dreamed that one day there would be a Southeast District Church of the Nazarene, let alone 90 churches and a membership of 9,225 nor could she have known that in 2013 the Georgia District Church of the Nazarene would lead the denomination with 118% giving to the World Evangelism Fund. The Georgia District did that last year in the midst of the worst economic disaster that most of us have ever witnessed. By the way, we have overpaid the World Evangelism Fund again at 107.32% this year and our Trevecca Nazarene University and Pensions and Benefits budgets are paid in full this year. April 28, 2011 a natural disaster struck across Georgia and two members of our District Family lost their lives when a powerful EF3 tornado swept through Barnesville. The Church of the Nazarene was used of God to help assist many who lost their homes and businesses to rebuild their lives. 93 The Barnesville Church of the Nazarene was opened immediately to render assistance to the community. (PASTOR LONNIE GRANT, WOULD YOU ESCORT MISSY KENDRICK TO THE PLATFORM?). Listen as Missy Kendrick, head of The Industrial Development Authority for Barnesville, Lamar County, Georgia, tells how the Church of the Nazarene made a difference in her world and how it is still impacting that area for Jesus. (MISSY KENDRICK SPEAKS – 3 MIN.) That’s just one story about the way Jesus is using the Church of the Nazarene here in Georgia. Sunday, May 25, 2014 we celebrated the tenth anniversary of the Life Hope Haitian Church of the Nazarene. PASTOR ODEL ALUSMA COME TO THE PLATFORM. I have a few questions I want to ask you. I wish every Georgia Nazarene could have been a part of that celebration. God came! People were on their feet celebrating what God has been doing in the past ten years. The church was packed! Odel: 1. 2. 3. 4. What is your church membership today? - 108 How many have you baptized? 20 people, two weddings How many did you have the Sunday I was there? 207 As part of your ten year celebration you had a week of revival that climaxed with that Sunday celebration. Who was your guest speaker during the week? (Rev. Julio Brutus). In 1990 Rev. Julio Brutus and I planted the first Haitian Church of the Nazarene in Winter Haven, Florida. He now serves as the District Haitian Coordinator and there are 13 Haitian churches on the new Florida District. BROTHER BRUTUS WOULD YOU STAND PLEASE? Bro. Brutus, twenty plus years ago you and I stood in my office and celebrated the birth of a brand new baby Haitian church in Winter Haven Florida. Tonight we celebrate the birth another baby Haitian church, Bethel International Church of the Nazarene in McDonough, Georgia. Would you join me in welcoming Rev. Othniel Baptiste, our new pastor at Bethel International Church of the Nazarene? Last year I introduced Rev. Hector Ordonez, General Superintendent of the Sanctified Church. This year I am excited to introduce to you Rev. Hector Ordonez, our new District Hispanic Coordinator and it is a joy to announce that we have four new Hispanic churches. Would you stand pastor as I call your name? 1. Hector Ordonez - Lilburn 2. German Lainez - Columbus 3. Maria Maldonado – Warner Robins 94 4. LaGrange – TBA Rev. Hector Ordonez is an asset God has bestowed upon the Georgia District Church of the Nazarene. Ladies and Gentlemen God is still pouring His blessings out on the Church of the Nazarene in Georgia! Praise His Holy Name! Everywhere I go these days young and old alike are talking about a deep desire for something more. Something so out of this world that no man or woman can take credit for it. Not another program but something like Leona and T. J. Shingler experienced in 1857. A fire that purifies and refines. What people are talking about is the awareness that we need the Fire to fall on the church again. But what is required to start or restart a fire? Three things are necessary: 1. A Spark 2. Dry Wood 3. Oxygen This old pulpit I stand behind tonight has witnessed the Fire Fall. It saw a spark that came from a Holiness Camp Meeting in New Jersey to a South Georgia town called Donalsonville that found a source of dry wood. The dry wood began to burn and just as suddenly the wind began to blow and little sparks began to fall in Florida, South Carolina and Georgia. The sparks turned into fires and fires turned into raging infernos. This was the pulpit used in the first District Assembly of the Southeastern District in Donalsonville, Georgia in 1909. Men like Dr. E. P. Ellyson, Uncle Buddy Robinson, Rev. W. R. Hanson, Rev. E. H. Kunkal and Dr. C. B. Jernigan are reported to have preached from behind this pulpit. 95 I witnessed the “Fire” Fall when I was a student at Trevecca Nazarene College (now University) as students came from Asbury College in Wilmore, Kentucky. A revival had broken out at Asbury College in Wilmore and under the leadership of the Holy Spirit, students left Asbury and went across America bringing that spark I’ve been talking about to Nazarene colleges. It was my privilege to be a part of a chapel service at Trevecca Nazarene College (now University) when the students arrived and began to testify about what God had done at the small Methodist college in Wilmore, Kentucky. had never seen anything like that. I It was in that movement that Seniors were confessing sins that required them to take classes over, one college president from another denomination stood the following Sunday morning at Nashville First Church of the Nazarene and told how he had an earned PhD in Theology and had been president of a Christian college in the Southeast but he had never known Jesus in a personal relationship. I have never gotten over that week. My heart still burns to see that kind of mighty movement of God; to see the Fire Fall on Georgia like it fell on the TNU campus that week. Luke 24:32 (NASB) says ……….. “Were not our hearts burning within us while He was speaking to us on the road, while He was explaining the Scriptures to us?” So, what does it take to see the Fire burn in us today? Listen to a prayer taken from “Pioneer Days of the Holiness Movement in the Southeast” by Charles Brougher Jernigan. . “I this day make a full consecration of all I have to God; now, henceforth, forever. Myself, my body, eyes, tongue, hands, feet, mind and heart. My wife, Mary Dodge, my boy, Wesley Atticus Dodge, and my daughter, Mae Belle Dodge, my books, clothes, money, all I now have, and all I ever expect to have. Yes. All my means are and shall be Thine. My time, and if there is anything to else that appertains me, that I have not mentioned, I lay it on the altar to stay there forever. I do this from a conviction belongs by right to Him. of duty that all I have Not as a compromise, but from a sense of duty, simply asking that I may be aided by Him to keep it there. Signed, sealed and delivered in the study of St. Paul Church, Atlanta Georgia, April 15, 1876, in the presence of Him who sees all things.” (Signed)W.A. Dodge.” 96 Several months after Brother Dodge passed away the above letter of consecration was found written on a sheet of paper in an old trunk in which he kept valuable papers On the envelope enclosing it after it had been sealed, he wrote these instructions: “This is to stay sealed during my natural life, being the instrument of my Consecration to God.” (Signed) W. A. Dodge. I think W. A. Dodge had figured out what it takes to live in “the Fire!” Matthew 5:6 says: “Blessed are those who hunger and thirst for righteousness, for they shall be satisfied.”(NASB) Exodus 20:5 says………..”for I, the LORD your God, am a jealous God”……NASB) God said in Hebrews 13:5“I WILL NEVER DESERT YOU, NOR WILL I EVER FORSAKE YOU,” (NASB) Church, be of good cheer. problem is not our God! God has not forsaken His church nor will He. The The problem is how hungry and thirsty are we? Have we settled for better instead of best? Have we settled for warm instead of the “inferno”? One hundred years ago some people called Nazarenes began to burn. At first it was just a spark but it began to catch fire and it began to spread all over the city of Donalsonville, then Decatur County, then the States of Georgia, Florida, and South Carolina. One hundred years later with 90 Churches of the Nazarene and 9,219 members what could happen if we marched out of this District Assembly totally sold out to Jesus, on Fire for God with a passion to preach the message of Heart Holiness to every hamlet and city in Georgia? What could happen if laymen began to hold Bible studies in their living rooms and pastors began to train this army of 9,219 to win sinners to Jesus and turn them loose to start new churches in their subdivisions and towns where we do not have a Church of the Nazarene today? Do our hearts burn within us as He speaks to us on the roads of Georgia? What are we doing that pleases God and what do we do that displeases God? Oh God may our hearts burn with the presence, purpose and power of the God who is able to do “exceedingly more. SONG: Jesus Saves by Allison Durham Speer Respectfully submitted, Dr. Roy E. Rogers District Superintendent Georgia District 97 2. NMI President Thank you church, thank you Georgia District, thank you Lord for giving me a place to serve you this year!

Harmony family thank you for your prayers and allowing me to often share praises and mission concerns with you. For being absent from you sometimes because of NMI calling elsewhere. You are a very special church family. Last year we challenged ourselves with the theme “Move Forward, Now is the Time”. The King has one more move. One day He is coming back. Now, is the time for us to move forward in His mission assignment. Did we move forward in our mission as challenged?

Thanks for your leadership David and Suzie Williams. The youth stay actively involved under the leadership of Debbie Moody. Another good Youthquake was held at Adrian in spite of the date change due to the snow and storms with Dr. Nina Gunter as their speaker. They raised $3,600 + to support their WW Mission Project in Wasilla, Alaska, where a group will go to participate in FrontlineMissions this summer. For the last several years we have recognized churches which have been 100% for NMI. This means they have participated in everything that the NMI promotes. This response keeps growing which is encouraging. Would the presidents of these churches please stand or a representative from the church if the president is not present?

Thanks to a District WW Team which went to Bonita Park and worked for a week to help build a Nazarene Campground destroyed by fire. Challenge 101 Praise the Lord for another good year for Nazarene Mission International across the Georgia District. Since its beginning, missions has been a strong focus of the Church of the Nazarene throughout Georgia. As churches were being planted in Georgia, in the hearts and minds of her people the concern and burden for others worldwide to have opportunity to know the Lord was also being planted. Praise the Lord that has continued! In using the terms “home mission” and “world mission”, as we once phrased the emphasis, from generation to generation the seeds of mission have been sown. Today we say Nazarene Mission International which is all inclusive as everybody ought to know Jesus. Everybody ought to know the One who freely gave His life for all nations, makes life worth the living, and fills that deep void within each heart. Do you know Him today? Do you tell others about Him today? Do you support the doors of opportunity of prayer and finance which enables the church to reach the world? Luke recorded for us, “ Jesus did say unto them, “Thus it is written, and thus it was necessary for Christ to suffer, and to rise from the dead the third day: and that repentance and remission of sins should be preached in his name among all nations, beginning at Jerusalem.” (Luke 24:46-48) The commission to the church is a worldwide one, encompassing the entire missionary effort. The church is not to be merely “missionary-minded.” The church is the vehicle of Christ’s mission to the world. Christ’s empowerment of the church to evangelize the world is available in every age, even unto the end of the church age. Jesus intended His church always to be spiritually militant and evangelistically aggressive as we take His claims of lordship to the entire world of our generation. What are you as a church, what are you as a disciple of Christ going to do about this challenge, this commission? How is He speaking to your heart to mend your ways to be stronger so that everybody knows Jesus. Yes, the forgotten people about us in our world and the areas where the church has not yet reached. Everybody ought to know Jesus! Everybody ought to tell who Jesus is! This year as we move toward the 100th Anniversary of Nazarene Missions International, I challenge the Georgia District to be a 100% District for Missions. That means every organized church and every CTM participating in World Evangelism Fund, Praying for missionaries and others around the world as well as those on our home front. Educating yourselves and those generations coming behind you in the commission of reaching the nations. And Discipling others to not only know about Jesus but to know Jesus Personally. We should all be doing this whether we have an active local NMI organized or not. Oh, may the power of the Holy Spirit come upon each of us in such a way that we cannot help but tell the world about Jesus and his transforming power. Lately, I have had more than one to say to me…. If people think I am a fanatic for Jesus….that is okay. That is what I want to be. Or, Ones say….If I am going to be crazy about anything, I want people to know I am crazy about Jesus and His purpose. The world needs Him today. 102 Do you know Him today? Does He come up often in your conversation? Do you tell others about the Jesus you know. Everybody ought to know Jesus. Respectfully Submitted, Virginia Wiseman Georgia District NMI President 3. NYI President Dr. Rogers, Georgia NYI, family and friends I bring to you my 2nd report as the Georgia district NYI president. Well, being part of a great district makes this a lot easier.

When we draw close to God , God draws close to us and we can be who we truly are in Christ. Discipleship. Do. When we think of discipleship it is about allowing our lives to be formed in the process of following Jesus, with our whole person and community, engaging in gods mission and presence already present and inviting others to do the same Leadership development. Go. When we think of an art form discovered in the journey of following Jesus and the accountability of community, we are thinking of leadership. Christ following leaders are often formed along the way and always in process and only ever arrive in further depths and variety in growing in grace and transforming relationships with god and others. How do you plan to Be. Do. Go this year?? What all has happened this year? 103 September brings the start of quizzing.

SDMI Director To our General Superintendent, Dr. Crocker, our District Superintendent, Dr. Rogers, and my fellow Nazarenes, it is my privilege to present to you this report on behalf of the 2013-2014 Georgia District Sunday School and Discipleship Ministries International Board. I want to begin by thanking Brian Farmer, our Statistical Secretary for doing a terrific job in helping all our churches report what God is doing among Nazarenes across Georgia. We want to make you aware of a great opportunity for Nazarenes to connect online by showing this brief video informing you of .com (Knocking on Historical Pulpit on platform) This is just wood. I was thinking maybe this was made of something special, like holy wood. That perhaps if I put this Pulpit in my church revival would come. Because this was the pulpit Dr. Hiram J. Reynolds preached at the General Assembly held here in the state of Georgia many years ago when the fires of holiness broke out in the Southeast U.S.. But the existence of holy wood only happens in places like Hollywood. Do you have Sunday School classes in your church? Sure, you do. classes can be centers of holy fire. Those Sunday School But like this great old pulpit, just because you have Sunday School in your church does not mean the fire of the gospel will be present. If we all we do at the end of our Sunday School classes when we walk out of them is learn something, then something is wrong. What should happen when followers of Christ who claim to be Christ-like in holiness gather with brothers and sisters around the Word and the Holy Spirit is present? Yes we will learn something, but a fire should be kindled in our hearts and our lives should burn for the gospel. So this year, your SDMI board wants you to start your churches on fire. Is that okay with you, Dr. Rogers? The fire of holiness does not starts not with your pastor or your board, or any other leaders. It starts with YOUR heart. It starts with MY heart. For any kids here in the room; big disclaimer here; we're not talking about a real fire you start with matches, we are talking about our hearts being changed by God. Otherwise, that will be the last we hear from Brotherhood Mutual at our assemblies.... At our Men’s Retreat this past January at Adrian Camp and Conference Center, Pastor Brian Gibson led worship and Evangelist Mike Adams spoke to over 100 men on “Living Holy Lives every Day.” What a blessing for us to have Rev. Jim Dunn put together a terrific Retreat every year that our men should not miss. Next year's Men's Retreat will be January 9-11, 2015 with Dr. Stan Toler speaking and Brian Arner bringing the music for us. This past November, our Women’s Retreat was a faith-filled inspirational gathering of about 240 ladies at Adrian Camp and Conference Center where Donna K. Rice gave a challenging message. Our ladies always have an encouraging time together. I want to clarify any confusion on how we arrived at the date for the next Ladies Retreat. It always begins on the second Friday of November, so this year’s Ladies Retreat will be 105 November 14-16, 2014 with Suzie Shellenberger speaking to our ladies. I want to give a special thank you to Brenda Williamson who directed our District Laymen's Retreat on February 21-23, 2014 at beautiful Fort Mountain Retreat & Conference Center in North Georgia where Rev. Lynn Holmes brought the Word of God to us. These are awesome opportunities for us to kindle the fires of Christian unity across our district. Please join us for these critical fellowship opportunities. Next year’s retreat will again be at the Fort Mountain Retreat Center on February 20-22, 2015 with Dr. Tim Green, the Dean of the School of Religion at TNU, bringing us the Word. For well over 40 years, Rev. Gene Wiseman has been directing our Children’s Ministries in Georgia. Our Kids and Preteen Camps had over 230 kids last year led by In His Time Ministries. This year’s theme is Fire & Ice, the Elements of Following Christ with Vic Bright preaching the Word. After this report we will be electing two new members to our board. Following this session, we will have a ten minute organizational meeting for the new SDMI Board in the Family Life Building across the parking lot. At this time I want to ask our current SDMI board to come forward to help me hand out these reminders of our challenge to you today to start your churches on fire. As they are coming forward would you help me thank them for their service to us this past year? (Applause.) Pastors, would you please stand so we can hand these to you? (Matchboxes were handed out to Pastors of each church, with our theme and IYS date on them.) While our board members are handing these out I want to share an historical drawing of John Wesley preaching outdoors in 1736 in Savannah, GA. (Drawing is displayed with the face of Dr. Rogers inserted overtop a horseman in the background.) I discovered our roots here go way beyond 100 years ago. As I looked a little closer at this drawing I noticed way in the background was one of our own, sitting on horseback. I was surprised Dr. Rogers didn’t want to bring this drawing himself. You can see him sitting on a horse. (To Dr. Rogers) Was that trigger's great, great, great, great grandfather? Sunday School Superintendents would you please stand so we can thank you? You should have received your SDMI packets that include a Georgia District SDMI Handbook of Events and Board Member Directory. oversight. If you did not see a packet for your church, I apologize for the please see me and I will send one to you next week. At this time I would like to give recognition to our churches who received Georgia District Sunday School Awards. Pastors would you please stand as your churches name is called out?

I want to thank Lewis Stark for his work in leading our Improve Your Serve Conference last year. Our feedback consistently includes praise for the top-rate speakers we bring in each year. This next year, Improve Your Serve will be held on Saturday, Oct 18, 2014 at Warner Robins First Church of the Nazarene. We want to equip you to “start your churches on fire.” In fact, we have a special speaker who has been on the wild frontier and has seen many wild fires of the Holy Spirit. We are pleased to have Daniel Boone (whom you may never have realized has his doctorate) to bring us a couple special sessions during this conference. (As our University President, we now call him Dr. Boone out of respect.) We will also be bringing the best presenters from TNU’s religion department to help you as you teach and preach across Georgia. And as we often say about Improve Your Serve, "If it were any better, Dr. Boone would have to charge you tuition." Thank you to Lewis Stark and his team for bringing us such a rich equipping conference for our teachers, preachers and small group leaders. 107 Sunday School Superintendents, the fire starts with you! I want to encourage you to go our Facebook Page and share any pictures or videos of what God is doing in your local Sunday School/ Discipleship Departments. If you have any trouble doing that you can send it to Mark Amspaugh, whose (along with all our other board members and directors) contact information is in our new Georgia District Handbook for the coming year. These handbooks, found in your SDMI packets, also contain event information for the coming year. Thank you for the privilege of serving you with a great SDMI board on the Georgia District.

Members are grateful to serve the camp and the Georgia District through this board We are thankful for the dedication and commitment of our Camp Manager Rev. Jeff Croft, and his staff and the ROAM volunteers who give their efforts for the ongoing ministry and improvements at the camp. Board members are appreciative of laypersons and ministers who dedicate themselves to volunteer service at the camp but at the same time urge more participation of our ministerial team for service to our district camp grounds. Adrian Camp is an important ministry arm of the Georgia District. Without the support of our faithful laypersons and committed pastors, many ongoing improvements would not be made. The camp board urges participation through volunteerism. the cost of maintenance and rental rates at a minimum. This helps keeps All are needed – no one is excluded. The board expresses appreciation for the workers of the 2013 Family Camp Meeting: Dr. Gary Henecke, Rev. Scott Ferguson, Rev. Walter Mingledorff and Rev. Mark Murphy. We 111 praise God for a great camp meeting under the leadership of our beloved district superintendent, Dr. R. E. Rogers and urge each of you to attend the annual July meeting. Adrian Camp had the privilege of hosting 3,100 guests April 1, 2013 through March 31, 2014. Improvements to the buildings and grounds continue to be ongoing as funds become available. Board members and several churches have contributed financially to purchase items needed for the care of the grounds and buildings. There are continuing needs for improvement and maintenance at Adrian. Support through financial giving to the camp will enable work to be done. Two work weeks were held and much was accomplished. We urge every pastor to attend at least one of the two work weeks Financial support and attendance of events at Adrian is vital. We encourage attendance at the Family Camp Meeting in July and camping events held in June. The largest project for improvement at Adrian is the construction of a new family ministry center to replace the current aging tabernacle. This project will require a complete restructuring of the facility and continued giving of monetary gifts toward this major project is appreciated, Camp Board members urge all to join “Friends of Adrian” for $120 a year per person. “Friends of Adrian”, a continuing fund for “extras” not covered otherwise.. Thank you to Rev. Jeff and Peggy Croft for your valuable service to Adrian Camp & Conference Center. Thank you to all the faithful volunteers who work throughout the year and during the work weeks to improve and enhance our camp for ministry to others. Only eternity will reflect the number who were called out by God on the hallowed grounds of Camp Adrian. Respectfully submitted, T. Manuel Johnson, Secretary Dr. R. E.

Ministerial Support Compensation for our ministers should be very carefully considered in each of several areas, namely: salary, housing, business expenses, compensated time off, and retirement. Therefore, we offer the following as our recommendations: A. Salary 1. That a pastor's salary should be equitable with the mean income of church families. If it is to be adequate, it must provide enough support so that financial problems do not interfere with a minister's best work. The church board should consider that the full-time pastorate is a 24 hour-a-day responsibility and compensate their minister accordingly. 2. That the pastor's salary be reviewed by the local church board semiannually, with consideration given to the increase in the cost-of-living index: and that the district superintendent meet with the church board to review the pastor's salary; and that when the regular income of the church increases by $1,000 per quarter, that the pastor's salary should automatically be reviewed with consideration given to at least $10.00 per week increase. We further recommend that the church board secretary report to the district superintendent twice a year on any action taken. 3. That the remuneration of the pastor shall commence on the Monday preceding the first official Sunday of service to the local church. 118 4. That our churches pay all the hospitalization insurance for their pastor and his/her family and all his/her Social Security. We recognize that business and industry assume all or most of the costs of hospital and medical care plans for their employees. Churches should do no less for their ministers and other professional staff people. In the event the district should consider a change of insurance company, the responsible committee should consider any preexisting or current illness that might not be covered if the change was made. 5. That each local church give serious consideration to establishment of an annuity fund for the pastor. B. Housing Housing for the minister should be provided by the church. This can be done in one of two ways. Either provide a parsonage adequate for his/her needs or a housing allowance so that he/she may rent or buy as he/she chooses (housing allowance should be sufficient to cover taxes, repairs, insurance, and amortization). This would allow the minister to build equity and be in a better position to purchase a house upon retirement. Also, we urge the local church to consider the substantial income tax advantages that are available to the pastor who owns his/her own home. We recommend that when a parsonage is provided in lieu of an allowance, that the major appliances be furnished in accordance with the pastor's needs. However, we urge each local church to investigate the desirability of providing an allowance for housing in lieu of a parsonage. Also, we recommend that the church pay all utilities, including fuel, lights, water, and telephone (except personal long distance calls) whether or not the parsonage is church owned. Where churches own their parsonages, we urge each board to appoint a committee to tour the parsonage at least once a year in order to make recommendations to the church board for needed maintenance and repairs. C. Business Expense (These items should never be included as part of the minister's salary. They are business costs of the church). 1. Automobile Expenses-We recommend that the church fully reimburse the minister for his/her automobile expenses relating to church work. This should cover items such as gasoline, oil, tires, and depreciation. This should be reported as "local church expense/reimbursements" and not as "cash benefits". 2. Other Travel-Pastors should be fully reimbursed for travel, meals, and lodging when they are out of town on church business. The Board of Stewards should help make arrangements for the care of the minister's children, if needed, at those times. 3. Hospitality-The church that expects its pastor to do entertaining on behalf of the church should provide these costs as business expenses. Also, the local church should provide for the entertainment of the evangelists and special workers during revivals. 4. District Activities-We recommend that each local church pay the expenses of the pastoral staff and spouses to district events such as, District Assembly, District Conventions, Camp Meeting, etc. and that this time not be counted as time off or vacation. D. Compensated Time Off 1. We recommend that the pastor be granted and strongly urged to take off at least one day each week in addition to holidays. 2. Vacation-We recommend that the pastor be granted a vacation with pay, based on the length of service with the Church of the Nazarene (and not just a local congregation) according to the following schedules: 1 to 5 years, two weeks; 6 to 10 years, three weeks; 119 over 10 years, four weeks or more (a week of seven days). Vacation time not used during the year is lost except by written agreement with the church board. 3. Continuing Education and/or Revivals-We recommend that the pastor be given an annual option of one of the following: (1) At least one week off each year for study. This would not be a vacation but a serious means of strengthening our ministry and its service. No minister can keep high standards without planned and consistent learning. This could include attendance at a minister's workshop. In addition, we recommend that the church board give consideration to a library allowance for the pastor. (2) A one-week revival during the year. We are concerned that pastors limit their activity in this area so that the church can adequately support our dedicated full-time evangelists. E. Miscellaneous Expenses 1. Should a pastor become seriously ill, it would be a Christian gesture on the part of the church to give him/her sick leave with full pay for a minimum of 90 days. If the illness is longer, the termination of the leave would be up to the discretion on the local church board. We recommend that churches provide disability insurance for the pastor and staff. 2. The local church should, when calling a new pastor, assume the full cost of moving expenses. F. Supply Preachers 1. When a supply preacher is invited to fill the pulpit, the following minimum honorarium is suggested: for churches raising under $75,000, a minimum of $50. per service plus IRS allowed mileage ($0.560/mile) round trip; for churches raising $76,000-$150,000, a minimum $75. per service plus IRS allowed mileage ($0.560/mile) round trip; for churches raising more the $150,000, a minimum of $100. per service plus IRS allowed mileage ($0.560/mile) round trip. The church should make arrangement meals and a place to rest between services if needed. G. Evangelists' Compensation 1. We recommend that each local church board review the compensation paid to evangelists who are devoting their full time to this work. We must give to these dedicated servants of God support that is comparable with current salaries and cost of living. A recommended formula would be at least double the amount of the pastor's base salary for that period of time. In addition to this, the church should pay the travel expenses to the local church. 2. If a revival is cancelled by a church without sufficient notice to the evangelist, the church should consider its financial responsibility to the evangelist. If cancellation is less than 60 days prior to the opening date of the revival, the local church should give consideration to paying the evangelist one-half of the salary he/she would have received. 3. Since the month of December is normally a very slack time for an evangelist, we urge each local church to send a "Love Offering" at Christmas to each evangelist they have had during the year. Special Recommendations We recommend that the local church provide like ministerial support for full-time associates. We recommend that this report be copied and distributed to the church board as soon as possible following the assembly. Respectfully submitted, 120 Dr. R. E. Rogers, Chairman Marcus Clements, Secretary 4. Memoirs “Another Soldier Has Gone Home” sung by Rev. Don Hicks. We pause today in the midst of the centennial celebration to pay tribute to the memory of our loved ones who have gone to be with the Lord this past year. Death can separate us from our loved ones but it can never rob us of memories nor take God from us Along with the Apostle, we would say of them – 2 Timothy 4:7 (NASB) I have fought the good fight, I have finished the course, I have kept the faith.
