Friday Afternoon, May 6, 2016

The 106th Annual Louisiana District Assembly was opened at 1:00 p.m. District

Superintendent, Rev. Charles Fountain, welcomed everyone to Assembly. He asked his

the District. Rev. Fountain then called for host pastor, Rev. Sidney Kirk Mitchell, to

welcome the congregation and offer up the opening prayer.

A District Praise Team led by Shane Weaver accompanied by Blaine Thibodeaux

guitar, and Scott Howell on drums then led the congregation in worship.

General Superintendent Busic brought a message from the Book of Acts reminding

the congregation of the need to be continually and regularly filled by the Holy Spirit.

Dr. Busic then called the meeting to order and asked District Secretary, Rev. Dan

West to organize the meeting.

Rev. West verified that everyone had registered and received the handbook for

assembly and asked for any alternates to be seated.

He established the voting area as the first ten rows of the tabernacle and asked all

delegates be seated in that area. He brought attention to the schedule of the assembly

Rev. West then asked Rev. David Young to come forward and read Partial Report

No. 1 and Partial No. 2 of the Board of Ministry. Rev. David Craig stated that Jerilyn Wilhite

had received her District license last year. This was noted so that it could be edited and

the report was accepted.

Rev. John Rabo was then asked to read the report of the Nominating Committee.

The report was adopted as read by the Assembly.

Rev. West asked Board of Tellers #2 to come forward and prepare to receive the

first ballot. He then asked the delegates to remove the ballot from the Assembly

handbook and mark their ballots, which were then collected by Board of Tellers.

Page 55

Dr. Busic then asked Dr. Loren Greshem, president of Southern Nazarene University,

to come forward and give the report of SNU to the Assembly. Dr. Greshem shared that

Louisiana has seven students from seven different churches now attending the university.

Following his report, General Superintendent Busic shared that SNU had been

named the top Christian university in Oklahoma.

At this time, Dr. Fountain asked that the SNU trustees, Heidi Babin and Rev. David

Craig, come forward to present the SNU Alumnus of the Year award. This year’s recipient

Dr. Busic thanked each one for attending and for the good pastor’s reports. He

asked Dr. Terry Toler to come forward and pray for the meal, thank God for the meetings

of the afternoon and the upcoming Ordination Service.

Ordination Service

Friday, May 6, 2016 – 7PM

Rev. Chuck Fountain welcomed each one to the 2016 Ordination Service. He

opened the session up by talking about the meaning and beauty of becoming an

Page 57

ordained Elder in the Church. He then prayed an opening prayer thanking God for those

who are still answering the call to ministry.

He then asked the congregation to join in singing Called Unto Holiness, which was

led by Shane Weaver and accompanied by Linda Stiles on the piano, as the District Elders

and Pastors entered the tabernacle.

Rev. David Craig came forward and asked the congregation to remain standing

as he read from God’s Word found in 2 Timothy 4:1-8. Following this, Rev. John Rabo

asked the congregation to join him in reciting the Apostles’ Creed.

District Superintendent Fountain then read from Matthew 24:13 recognizing Rev.

William Stark, Jr. who is retiring after 27 years of active ministry. Bro. Chuck then asked

Rev. Stark and his wife, Mary, to come forward. General Superintendent David Busic then

read a plaque presented to them by the Church of the Nazarene. On behalf of a

grateful church he thanked them for their many years of faithful service. Marsha Fountain

then presented the couple with a gift from the Louisiana District.

Rev. Fountain asked District Secretary West to present Braden Hunt, Javior Alor, and

Jose Serrano with their very first District License. Bro. Chuck then charged the new

licensees with the responsibility of the license they had received. He encouraged them to

allow the Elders of the Church to teach them, guide them, and mentor them.

At this time, Rev. Dan West, presented the Ordinands, Linda Willingham and David

Hater to General Superintendent, Dr. David Busic, stating that they had completed all the

requirements of ordination. Dr. Busic charged the ordinands with the duties and privileges

of a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ and as a minister of the Church of the Nazarene.

He then questioned the ordinands and declared them eligible for ordination.

Shane Weaver then led the Elders and Ministers Choir in singing Be Thou My Vision

accompanied by Linda Stiles on the piano.

Following the song by the Minister’s Choir, Rev. William Bonee and Rev. Cindy

Richmond read A Theology of Ordination from the Manual of the Church of the

Nazarene.

General Superintendent Busic asked the congregation to stand as he read from

God’s Word in Philippians 2:19-30. He stated that this passage may seem like a rather

strange scripture passage for an ordination service. He reminded the congregation that

Paul wrote this letter while in prison. In a culture where most boys followed in their father’s

footsteps, Paul became a Spiritual dad to Timothy. Paul and Timothy worked side by side

in planting and growing churches.

Paul said to the Philippians of Timothy: Timothy really cares about you. Timothy

truly wanted what was best for others and Paul told them he had no one else like Timothy

to send to them. He then shared the story of Epaphroditus who is also found in this

passage. Epaphroditus was not a minister, but almost gave up his life to deliver a letter

from the Philippians to Paul in prison. What we do for Jesus matters for all eternity. We all

have a holy calling on our life: not lay and minister, but all working together with our own

unique gifts and abilities.

Paul was holding up the example of Timothy and Epaphroditus as examples for us

to follow: Timothy the faithful minister; Epaphroditus the faithful layman. They both looked

out for what was best for others. If you’re going to love Jesus, you have to love and serve

the people Jesus loves. That’s what becoming an Elder in the Church to share the Gospel

of Jesus Christ is all about. Paul says selflessness, humility, faithfulness, servanthood,

perseverance, sacrifice, and service to the least of these, are the most important things.

Dr. Busic then asked the Ordinands to come forward and kneel at the altar. He

then asked the Elders of the Church to join them, with laying on of hands and praying for

the Ordinands. Dr. Busic read the charge from the Manual to each ordinand and

Page 58

declared each ordinand an Elder in the Church of the Nazarene. Dr. Busic then

presented each newly ordained elder with a Certificate of Ordination.

Dr. Loren Greshem then presented a bust of John Wesley to each new Elder from

Southern Nazarene University. Dr. Busic, Dr. Fountain, Rev. West and the newly Ordained

Elders, led the procession of Elders and Pastors as they filed out of the Tabernacle, while

the congregation sang the Doxology.

A reception for the newest Elders and retiring pastor, Rev. Bill Stark, was held in the

Dining Hall following the service.

Day Two

Saturday morning May 7, 2016

The morning session opened at 8:30 a.m. Rev. Chuck Fountain opened the service

with prayer followed by worship led by Shane Weaver and the District Praise Team.

General Superintendent Busic began the session by asking the congregation

questions about the Mission Statement, Core Values and statistics about the Church of

the Nazarene, helping the assembly to realize that the Church of the Nazarene is a

connectional church. What happens around the world affects the United States and

what happens in the United States affects those in other parts of the world.

Dr. Busic then asked his wife, Christi, to join him at the front. They shared a picture

of their family with the congregation, then shared other pictures taken around the world

while traveling as part of Dr. Busic’s position as General Superintendent. The pictures

included some of the foods they have eaten around the world; others pictures showed

the cultural differences in other countries; there were pictures of beautiful scenery around

the world; some of other Nazarenes around the world; doctors at the Nazarene Hospital in

Papua New Guinea; a Rehab Center in Tonga sponsored by Nazarene Compassionate

Ministries; Ordination services in other countries; ending with a picture of the District

Superintendent of the Cuba District.

Dr. Busic shared how fast the Church of the Nazarene is growing in Cuba and the

hardships that the members are willingly accepting in order to serve Jesus Christ. He even

shared of a sacrificial offering taken in Cuba for fellow brothers and sisters who were

suffering in the Philippines following a typhoon.

His theme for the Louisiana District Nazarenes was “This is Us.” We are connected

globally to work together to grow God’s Kingdom around the world as part of the Church

of the Nazarene. We all share together toward the common goal of “Making Christ-like

Disciples” around the world.

Dr. Busic then asked District Secretary West to share the results of the SDMI ballot

taken at the end of the session the previous afternoon.

Total ballots cast: 111. For SDMI Chairman: David Craig, 97 yes votes; 5 no votes.

For Board Member - Lay Person: Jazmin Cardona, 20; Ginger Murillo, 19; Wendy Gilmore,

17; Ranee Terry, 41; Sandra Hutson, 5. For Board Member – Clergy: Honore Calera, 31;

John Hoffpauir, 31; James Philen, 16; David Young, 29. For General SDMI Convention

Delegates: Lay Delegates: Heidi Babin, 38; Jan Rivet, 28; Erika Castillo, 32; Ranee Terry, 31;

Patience West, 51; Valinda Rester, 30. For Clergy Delegates: William Bonee, 48; Cindy

Richmond, 14; David Hoffpauir, 39; David Young, 28; Josue JJ Murillo, 42; John Rabo, 47.

Page 59

General Superintendent Busic than declared the following elected: For Lay Person

Board Member: Ranee Terry. For General SDMI Lay Delegates: Heidi Babin and Patience

West. For General SDMI Clergy Delegates: William Bonee and John Rabo.

Board of Tellers #1 was called to receive the ballot for Clergy Board. The following

names were on this ballot: Honore Calera and John Hoffpauir.

Dr. Busic then shared memories of the calling of Rev. Chuck Fountain as the District

Superintendent for the Louisiana District. He asked Marsha Fountain to stand and the

assembly recognized her as the First Lady of the District. Dr. Busic then asked Bro.

Fountain to share his report with the District. This report in its entirety can be found in the

District Journal. This report was received by the assembly with a standing ovation.

Dr. Busic recognized Bro. Chuck and Marsha Fountain’s wonderful leadership on

the Louisiana District. He then, with the approval of the entire Board of General

Superintendent’s, recommended the continued leadership of Rev. Fountain on the

Louisiana District for another four year term.

Rev. West then called for Board of Tellers #2 to receive the ballot for District

Superintendent.

A love offering was then taken for District Superintendent Fountain. Dr. Terry Toler

led the congregation in singing Victory in Jesus as the offering was taken.

At this time, Dr. Busic had a general question and answer session. One of the

questions was concerning the Nazarene Publishing House. Dr. Busic shared that NPH is

doing well financially now and is once again moving in a very positive direction. He

thanked the assembly for supporting NPH, which exist to serve the Church of the

Nazarene. He also shared that NPH is the largest publishing house of Wesleyan Holiness

material in the world.

Dr. Busic then asked District Secretary West to share the results of the SDMI ballot for

Clergy Board Member: Honroe Calera, 56; John Hoffpauir 61. Dr. Busic declared John

Hoffpauir elected by the assembly.

Dr. Busic asked Rev. West to share the requirements to elect the District

Superintendent. He then shared the results of ballot for the District Superintendent. Total

ballots cast: 120. For District Superintendent: Chuck Fountain: 119 Yes votes; 1 No vote.

Marsha Fountain was escorted to the platform where she and Bro. Chuck thanked

the assembly for their overwhelming show of support. Rev. West then presented the

Fountain’s with the love offering taken by the congregation.

At this time, Rev. West asked Rev. John Rabo to come forward and present the

Memoirs Report of those transferred to the Church Triumphant during the past year.

Sarah Garoby sang the song Legacy while the names of those who were now living in the

Presence of the Lord scrolled on the screen.

Dr. Busic recognized the retired ministers, evangelists and chaplains who were in

attendance. He then thanked the Assembly for their hospitality and expressed his

admiration for the leadership of District Superintendent Fountain.

Rev. West then made a motion for the editing of the District Assembly minutes for

corrections and that all ballots taken during the Assembly be destroyed. This motion was

approved by the delegates.

General Superintendent Busic then called for a motion to adjourn the assembly.

This was unanimously received.

V. Reports

A. DISTRICT OFFICERS

1. District Superintendent

Dr. Busic, Dr. Gresham, Dr. Terry Toler, delegates, members and friends of the 106th District

Assembly of this Louisiana District. It hardly seems possible that it has been two years since I

received your call to serve in this capacity as District Superintendent. It has been an eventful

two years. I am beginning to learn my way around this great state, learning the people,

names and connections and ways that “Louisiana’ns" react and what is expected and required.

Learning something new almost every day! I have grown to love you and appreciate the unique

and important part each of you plays in the Kingdom of God. We have a big job to do! We have

churches to plant, people to reach with the gospel and the message of holiness to preach.

Ephesians 4:16 reminds us, “From Christ the whole body, joined and held together by every

supporting ligament, grows and builds itself up in love, as each part does its work.”

I would like to say a special thank you a number of people who make

living in community better and display Christ in all that they do.

Turn to the person next to you and say “Thank you for all you do!”

I am going to thank some specific people and would like for

them to stand to be recognized and allow you to join me in saying

“Thank you!” First, to my wife Marsha, for her

tireless work and compassion, for giving herself fully to the ministry and serving Christ and the

church. Marsha, you are the best and I love you and I couldn’t do it with you!

“Thank you” to the members of the District Advisory Board for their love and compassion.

Dajunna Howell, Howard Hoffpauir, Philip Lambert, Pastor Dale Hoffpauir, Pastor William

Bonee and Pastor John Rabo have worked tirelessly in assisting the ministry of the Church

of the Nazarene across the state of Louisiana. Going beyond expectations on numerous levels

exemplifies there idea of ministry and service. Join me in saying “Thank you!” Dajunna

Howell who serves as our treasurer and Pastor Dale Hoffpauir who serves as our board

secretary have both gone beyond expectations and show the compassion of Christ in every

situation. Join me in saying, “Thank you!” Pastor David Craig has given excellent leadership

to the SDMI, Pastor Charlie Ashby has given excellent leadership to the NYI and Cori Chesson

has given excellent leadership as the NMI President. This group of leaders are a blessing and a

real gift. Each has been blessed by God and is a blessing to others around them. Would you join

me in expressing our appreciation to them.

Pastor John Rabo, Chairperson of the Camp board along with Charles and Sally Faust, directors

of the camp, have given incredible leadership to the ministry of our camp here at Rocky Creek.

Page 61

Join me in saying, “Thank you!” Thank you to each and every one of these individuals and all

of the members of the boards with whom they work, who have given generously of their time,

talent and treasurer to assist the ministry of the district. And one more, Pastor Dan West, who

serves as our District Secretary and makes this assembly happen, keep us on track, fills

countless forms, answers numerous calls and has to face the deadlines imposed by others and all

the while makes it look easy! Join me in saying “Thank you!” to Pastor Dan West. There are

countless others who serve in many capacities across the district in assembly, conventions,

boards, councils and committees, and to you we say “Thank you!” as well.

In his book “The Complete Disciple,” Paul

Powell describes a painting of a scene from the

old west. It is a picture of a wagon train.

Nighttime has fallen. The wagons have been

circled up for protection. In the center of the

circle is a campfire and a group of rugged

men are gathered around it. The wagon master,

a muscular man with an uncut beard, has a map

spread out before him. On the

map is a heavy black line which zigzags across the map, showing the course they have traveled

thus far. They have veered north for part of the way, then south, but they keep heading west. By

the look of urgency on the men’s faces, it seems that an argument has taken place over which

way to go next. The wagon master has clearly taken control with one finger on the map and his

other hand pointing toward some dark, hazy mountains in the distance. You can almost hear him

saying,

“We may have to go south around a mountain, or maybe north

to find the best place to cross a river, but our direction will always

be west.” That is how this wagon train will succeed, that is how

we will reach our destination. Focus on our goal, and keep moving

west. We must focus on the goal to keep reaching people with the

gospel of Jesus Christ and

keep moving toward the fulfillment of the promise of the kingdom of God.

I read recently this quote, “What we need in this country is not just new missionary

strategies. We need a revival by means of the Holy Spirit to sweep the land . . . No amount

of plotting and planning and structure change and all of that good stuff, without a moving of the

Holy Spirit, is going to get the job done. . . We need to get on our knees and pray for a revival

of the Holy Spirit.” If we want revival in our homes, in our churches, in our cities, in our

nation, in our world, it must begin with us … with you and with me. We must continue to focus

on others, reaching new people with the gospel of Jesus Christ. Doing ministry together is our

Page 62

theme and we all realize that ministry is something we cannot do alone. “We really do need

each other” as Reuben Welch often said. We also need the presence and empowering strength of

the Holy Spirit as we find and do God’s will together. Let’s celebrate the reason for our

existence as a church, going into the harvest and making Christlike disciples.

This past year in church planting we saw the following: Red Hill Cowboy Church was

planted, started, growing and then quickly adopted by the Wesleyan Church, but the

Kingdom of God is growing; The Mount of Olives Church was started in Westlake almost

exactly one year ago, under the leadership of Pastor Jose Serrano and it is one of the Top 10 in

conversions this year, which we will recognize in a few moments; The old Bossier City Church

took on an incredible dream and planted a new congregation under the leadership of Pastor

Charlie Ashby at the same time facilitating and assisting the Bossier City Roca De Salvacion

Church with ministry and property, and all of this was done with the guidance and assistance

of the GracePointe Church in Shreveport and the leadership of Pastor David Craig; and a brand

new start church plant, yet to be named, in Monroe under the direction of Pastor Carlos

Gomez. During this year the Nouvelle Church was organized under the leadership of Pastor

Dale Hoffpauir, this church was planted and mothered by the Baton Rouge First Church under

the leadership of Pastor William Bonee, and this congregation too will be further recognized in a

few moments. We have much more to do. We have areas where the harvest is indeed ready

and we need laborers to be deployed and focused on reaching the world with the gospel of

Jesus Christ. We still have churches that are struggling and who need to re-dream the dream

and reimagine the possibilities of a holiness lighthouse in their community. As I have said

before and will say again, almost anyone can be trained to assist in the delivery of a baby, but

only God can raise the dead. With our limited resources we are going to focus on birthing new

baby churches and it will be our prayer that God will intervene and raise the dead. Our goal of

736 Churches of the Nazarene in Louisiana and 2% of the population in Louisiana being

ministered to and the gospel being shared by the Church of the Nazarene. We have a BIG task,

but we also have a BIG GOD!

We have three churches with significant outreach through education with schools and

daycares. Marksville Church, with Pastor Gary Jones, has 27 students, 3 teachers and other

support personnel; Pearl River, in the midst of pastoral transition, has a daycare with with 28

students and 5 teachers and assistants; and Winnsboro Family Community, with Pastor Troy

Sundermeyer, who will soon be commissioned and deployed as a US Navy Chaplain, has a

school with a daycare with 550 students, and 34 teachers and

Page 63

support personnel. We celebrate the impact that these church are having on the lives of children

and families for many hours each day and many days per year. Join me in saying, “Thank

you!”

We are appreciative of all the churches who participated in paying their

fair share to the district, general and regional college efforts. We have

19 churches that paid their WEF in full. Pastors and NMI Presidents

please stand and be recognized - New Orleans Restoration; Slidell

First; Winnsboro Family Community; Ebenezer; GracePointe; Vivian;

Natchitoches LightWay; Holly Grove; Baton

Rouge First; New Orleans Filadelfia; Many; Cenchrea; Shreveport First; McCoy; Kenner First;

Moss Bluff Trinity; Crowley First; Lake Charles First and Marksville. Of those 18, 15 of them

not only paid in full but overpaid, with Marksville leading the way by paying 176.5% of their

WEF or almost 15% for missions as a church! “THANK YOU!”. I thank you for doing what

you are supposed to do, and many of you excelled, and for that we are thankful and we offer our

thanks to you.

May I remind you that it takes us all participating, each week, little by little. Each local church

is dependent on their people to tithe and give generously, the district, the college and our

Page 64

missional efforts around the world are dependent on you as a pastor and you as a church to do

the same. I have never seen a missional focused church struggle financially. You cannot

outlive God. God always provides and blesses generously. But I have seen many churches who

are trying to survive and are focused on maintenance and not mission struggling financially.

Inward focus, short sighted and struggling go together.

Ira Gillete was a missionary to East Africa. He worked as a missionary that provided

education, food and some basic health care. In a trip home, he spoke about an interesting

phenomenon he had observed. Over and over again, Gillette said he saw large groups of

villagers travel miles out of their way to visit the missionary hospital rather than stop at one

of the many government clinics available along the way. Finally he asked one of the groups

why they traveled so many extra miles when the same treatment was available at one of the

government clinics in their own village. And one man said, “The medicine may be the same,

but the hands are different.” May all of the Churches of the Nazarene in Louisiana be places

where the hands are different, where we minister with the Spirit of God present and active for

our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ.

This past year in Evangelism we found the following: According to your reports, as of

Monday, May 2nd, we had 276 conversions, 89 Baptisms and 244 New Nazarenes in

Louisiana during the past year. I will ask the pastor of these churches to come forward and

remain standing until all in their group are recognized. I am recognizing the TOP 10 in each of

the following categories: Number of conversions reported; number of baptisms reported;

number of new Nazarenes reported; Worship attendance reported and SDMI attendance

reported. (read from bottom to top and ask the pastor to come to the front). These are the top 10

but there may be more than 10 churches in each list because of their numbers being the same

(tie).

Thank you for keeping the mission as the main thing and reaching new people with the gospel

of Jesus Christ. Join me in celebrating what God is doing through these pastors and churches.

The General Superintendent’s Growth award goes to a church from New Orleans making a

difference in their community and across the district - The Restoration Church under the

leadership of Pastor Florentino Murillo. Join me in congratulating Pastor Florentino Murillo

and the people of Restoration.

We must plant churches! In every parish, every city and town, and every neighborhood. We

must reach people with the gospel of Jesus Christ. But most of all we must pray. Luke 10:2

reminds us each day to pray that the Lord of the harvest will send out laborers into the

harvest. We must pray for revival, renewal, new vision and new opportunities to be on

mission.

Page 68

Above the doorway of a church in London, there is a prayer carved into the stone. It reads:

“O God, make the door of this house wide enough to receive all who need Christ’s love

and fellowship and narrow enough to shut out all envy pride and strife.”

That is Christ’s prayer for the church – that we may be a humble, servant church,

welcoming, tolerant and inclusive. So as we make our way back into our community, back

to our homes, our schools, our places of employment, let us seek to wrap our arms around

all God’s children, welcoming them as Jesus did – instead of looking for ways to hold them

at arm’s length.

Let me share the words of Philippians 4:19 “And this same God who takes care of me will

supply all your needs from his glorious riches, which have been given to us in Christ Jesus.”

We must depend on God. We must attempt great things for God. We must leave room for God

to work in our plans, dreams and visions. If what we set out to do is accomplishable in our own

strength, then we are dreaming too small and not allowing room for God. Let’s dream great

dreams and attempt great things for God!

Leaving room for God, Respectfully submitted

Charles Fountain Jr. - District Superintendent

2. SDMI Chairman

SDMI Chairman Report to the Louisiana district SDMI Convention,

Dr. Chuck Fountain, Pastors and fellow Disciples on the Louisiana district, it is a privilege

to bring you my third report as Chairman of Sunday School and Discipleship Ministries

International for the Louisiana District. It is truly an honor to serve you and the Kingdom

in this capacity.

Page 69

This year has truly been a blessing as we have served together to see kids, teens and

adults grow in their walk with Christ. David writes in Psalm 51:10, “create in me a clean

heart…Then I will teach transgressors your ways.” My prayer for the LA district is we will

experience Christ in such a way that he recreates in us that joy as it was in the begging

to be with Christ and to share Him with others!

God has given me a wonderful partner in ministry by blessing me with a loving and

supportive wife (Dawn). In one interview I had the DS said, “Not sure if I want you David

but I do know I want Dawn.” I am truly blessed! I thank Jesus for our sons Caleb and

Adam who love Jesus and are running the race with us with perseverance.

In addition to this, I serve with some of the best people on the district at GracePointe.

They continue to love, pray and encourage their Pastor on a daily basis. Each week

God is teaching us more about His plans for us to become a church that is blessing

people with the grace we have receive so we can point them to Christ!

This year, we have walked beside a very courageous Leader who is giving great vision

to our district in Dr. Chuck Fountain. I am thankful for his prayers, guidance, leadership

and dependability. Ladies and Gentlemen, we can trust Pastor Chuck.

I wish I could just invite you all to share in our SDMI meetings. WE are blessed to have

very talented and visionary leaders! William Bonee has served faithfully this year as our

secretary and kept track of statistics. We did much better this year with our reporting

but let me encourage you to report monthly what Jesus is accomplishing through you

at your churches! We need 100% reporting on our statistics.

Jan Rivet asked to resign this year and when no one stepped forward she just kept on

going. Thank you Jan for being a faithful steward! David Hoffpauir served as our Adult

Ministry Director and Sarah Garoby as our Children’s Ministry Director. Let me just say

that these two have worked hours in leading our ministries on the district. They led us as

we evaluated what we are doing and what we need to do better to make Louisiana a

leader in Making Disciples.

Cindy Richmond led our Women’s Ministry Retreat. We had a great turnout even

though it was scheduled during Naz Nite weekend. Carla Sundberg did a wonderful

job as our presenter and our ladies were encouraged and challenged! We have

moved this event to November 4-5 to avoid future conflicts. Make plans now to have

your ladies join us for this wonderful event!

Ranee Terry gave leadership to our second District Couples Conference which was led

by Hal and Debbi Perkins. 19 couples were a part of this weekend of discipleship. The

next conference is scheduled for September 21-22, 2017 so place this on your

calendars! The emphasis will be on the Art of Marriage. It will be worth your investment!

Cori Chesson, Katie Cook and Nancy Lambert gave great leadership to our Spring

Renewal Retreat. The retreat is now open to both laymen and clergy. We had a

wonderful retreat...Spirit-led worship and messages, good fellowship with the district

church family, and delicious food! Our total attendance was 46. Of this number, 35

Page 70

were laypeople, 7 were pastors and spouses, and 2 were our visiting missionaries. Scott

& Dajunna Howell were our speakers and talked about God’s Dysfunctional, Delightful

Dynamic family! We look forward to great days ahead for our Spring Renewal Retreat!

Our Kids Camp was directed by Rick and Heidi Babin. New and exciting events and

opportunities were made available to our Kids. Over 68 kids and 33 workers walked

together as Our kids were challenged at “Rocking at 908” Pastor Pete did a fabulous

job of teaching our kids and our altars were full with kids committing their lives to Jesus!

We would like to challenge every church to send at least one child to camp this year so

that they could experience this life changing event!

We had another great year as Nancy Lambert directed our Kids Quizzing. What an

inspiration it is to see our children learning God’s Word! Eight churches participated this

year with 35 quizzers. We had12 quizzers who learned 20 Bible memory passages this

year! Let me encourage you to look at our kids quizzing materials. They are some of the

best around. It gets our kids into the word and gives opportunity for their parents to

learn with them.

Patience West directed our second annual Kids Quest which is a talent day on our

District for kids. We had around 36 kids participate and about 50 adults who came to

support them in our second event. Singing, drama, art work and cooking were some of

the events that our kids were encouraged to develop their talents to be used by Jesus!

This event will be moving to its own date next year on March 4, 2017 with expanded

sports and other fun events added to the list. Our kids are learning how to use their

talents for Jesus and we encourage you to join us next year for this event for your Kids!

Valinda Rester and Ranee Terry served as your elected lay members, David Young and

John Rabo served as your Clergy members and Erika Rivera Castillo served as our

Spanish Representative. What great representation was given from these who helped

guide our SDMI team this year!

We sponsored and additional opportunity for training this year as we had our first SDMI

District training even with Ray Neu. Ray gave us additional training on how to teach a

Bible story as if you were really there. We were taught to teach stories in a fun and

exploratory way. We had around 65 who were here at Rocky Creek to become better

disciples for Jesus! This year our event will be broadcast by satellite on September 24th

at GacePointe and at Baton Rouge. It will be from 9 am – 12:30 pm and you will go

away with new ideas for leading SDMI in your local church!

District Honor Awards: (See attached sheet)

The Vision for SDMI is threefold: We are to…

1. Be a People of Prayer- (Understand what he has done for us, in us and through us)

The most effective tool for Discipleship and Evangelism is Prayer!

People who talk to Jesus are people who talk about Jesus.

Page 71

2. Be Engaged in His Word: (Listen to Jesus)

Matthew 7:24, “Everyone who hears these words of mine and puts them into

practice…”

We must listen to Jesus every day!

3. Be Making Christ like Disciples: (Feed his lambs)

Jesus invested His life in a few one conversation at a time.

Our goal for this year is “Discipleship Explored”. Discipleship is more than just leading

someone to Christ. It is learning to walk in the steps of the Spirit! Let’s review what we

are doing in our Sunday School classes and small groups. Pray, learn and go. Feed

families, visit nursing homes, help out at your local pregnancy shelter. Get outside of

your church and go explore ways to be His disciple!

Let’s be true to our holiness heritage and do what Jesus asks us to do…

Matthew 28:19-20 (The Message)

“Jesus, undeterred, went right ahead and gave his charge: “God authorized and

commanded me to commission you: Go out and train everyone you meet, far and

near, in this way of life, marking them by baptism in the threefold name: Father, Son,

and Holy Spirit. Then instruct them in the practice of all I have commanded you. I’ll be

with you as you do this, day after day after day, right up to the end of the age.”

Respectfully Submitted,

David B. Craig

3. NMI President

Wow! This has been a truly amazing year. It has been challenging, fun, scary, and I

believe God inspired. It has been a humbling experience to share my heart and

dreams with you throughout this last year.

I could not have asked for a better council or more supportive people to surround and

encourage me. I must confess that I had my doubts at the beginning of the year, but

felt that if God wanted me here then He would provide for each step along the way.

As with every new venture in life there has been a learning curve and I have to thank

you, the entire District for standing behind me and accepting my faults with grace,

mercy, and love. Everyone may say it, but I know that the Louisiana District is special.

The council has been a huge blessing and huge shout out goes to them for accepting

me with my ADD brain and helping me stay on track. If you serve on the council please

stand. These people are amazing and some of the best people you will ever meet.

They truly love God and have a burning desire to see the world reached for him.

Page 72

NMI is four foundations that we stand on to share our mission with the world, Prayer,

Discipleship, Giving, and Education. Let me share with you a few ways that God has

been moving in NMI in Louisiana this year.

Prayer: We ended convention last year with plans to go back to Haiti this past January.

During preparations for the trip I had some misgivings and asked the Council to pray

and fast with me. Satan was really working on each of us. We all felt that we needed

to go because we had made a commitment but each time I prayed I felt God telling

me that this was not the trip for us. After two weeks of prayer we came together for a

meeting and as only God can do we unanimously agreed that God did not want us on

this trip. We ultimately decided that God did want us to help finish the Church we

started last year and so we sent the money on to Haiti and are waiting for the roof to be

finished in the next few months. The money is being used to hire local skilled workers,

which in turn is boosting the economy in the area. It’s not the way we would have

chosen in our humanness, but it’s the way God wanted it to be.

Also, if you’re not already a part of our district prayer chain you should sign up today. It

is an amazing resource to stay connected with what is happening in our district and to

know how to focus our prayers. Interceding in one of the best ways I have found to

stay grounded in my walk with Christ. Bringing every decision, every thought, every

emotion to the Lord, means He is leading us in every step that we take.

Discipleship: This year we have had a few exciting opportunities to join with our sister

churches for work projects. A few of our churches meet together in Winnsboro at

Family Community Church to help the get prepared for the school year. They put

together lockers, installed lights, cleaned, painted, and various other projects. It was a

combination of Adults and teens coming together and being used as the hands and

feet of Jesus. We also had the Koinoina Church lead a project at the Nueva Vida

Church in New Orleans. This is the perfect opportunity to share our skills and God given

talents with those around us. It can also break down barriers and put us on an even

playing field with new Christians. Paul was a tentmaker, You can’t tell me that He didn’t

preach when we was working. Working together on a project, on a work and witness

trip, or just teaching someone how to do something can open up so many possibilities if

we are open to it and looking for them. Discipling is an intentional act of reaching out

to another person and sharing our heart and our story of what God has done for us.

Giving: Monetary support is a big part of our mission. We are not all able to physically

go unto every nation, but we are able to give financial support to others. I am amazed

at our giving. Give yourselves a hand Louisiana, because this year was awesome. We

have 11 churches that gave over 100% and 8 churches that gave over 110%. It is truly

amazing.

Are you ready for this? THE WEF has been met. This is the first time in many years that

we have paid the WEF in full, but that’s not the end, we have gone over and above our

goal!!! Way to go Louisiana!

Page 73

Education: Friendship Church hosted our 2nd Annual Children’s Mission Rally. It was an

exciting time! We had around 40+ people including kids and adults. Bro. Chuck was

our missionary speaker. Being raised as a Missionary Kid he was the perfect choice to

share with our kids about what life looks in a foreign country. Kids and adults alike had

a great time!! Children and teens are a vital part of missions, they are not the future,

and they are now! It’s important to remember in your planning that you are creating

opportunities for them to share about what’s happening in their life and to see how

Jesus is guiding them to be mission minded.

Now that we’ve don’t that, where do we go from here?

So, if you weren’t here last night or haven’t guessed our theme yet; our focus is “Doing

Life Together!” For me this has become a personal mission statement. Each day I strive

to be intentional in my contact with others, with people at our church, with our kids,

teens, my coworkers, people I meet standing in line at Dairy Queen. It means loving

these people to Jesus, its messy, its tiring, its dirty, but it’s also fun, it’s an adventure, it’s

usually something you didn’t plan on, and it requires us to be flexible with our time,

money, and resources. Most importantly its love! And I believe it’s the ministry that God

has called each of us too. If we are being led by the Spirit then He will give us what we

need to see it through. But it takes practice to see the signs and to put it into play. So

here is your challenge. I left off last night asking you to pray about a person that

needed you to show them God’s love, it could be someone in your church, it could be

someone that needs to be in your church. The challenge is to pick a set of gloves from

the table and use them in the next two weeks to reach out to that person. You could

do yard work, You might cook a meal to share with someone, maybe God is going to

use you to teach someone how to do maintenance on a car or house, the list could go

on forever and is only limited to your imagination. So if you haven’t already, pick up a

pair of gloves after we get finished and practice being intentional with the people in

your life.

The District Project Book is something that I’m very excited to implement this year.

Essential this is a list of needs around our district. We are calling the needs Projects,

mainly because it’s a fairly broad term and we did not want to limit what God can do.

These projects include, painting a playground, installing light kits and dimmer switches,

checking out AC/Heat units, building projects, outreaches, painting, etc. We will

continue to update the project as more projects are added and as they are

completed!! These projects are open to any groups. Say you’re a men’s prayer group

and decide you need something to do; you could look in the project book and find

that a church needs help hanging some dry wall and painting. Or you’re a part of a

youth group and you see that a church needs help with workers for a VBS, so you

decide to load and be the hands and feet of Jesus to some children. Now these

projects are not funded by NMI, there may be times when we are able to help with

that, but most projects should be funded by the church asking for help. I know this is

different from anything that we’ve done before, but part of Doing Life Together is

Page 74

reaching out a hand to our sisters churches and supporting the ministries around the

state. The dream for the Project Book is ultimately for each district on our region to

have one and be able to do projects in all of the districts.

While we are talking about projects and trips I want to tell you about the Maps hanging

on the wall over here. As you can see they are gold and we have one of the World

and one of the US. These are some of the coolest maps that I have ever seen. It’s

called a scratch map. When you scrap a coin across a country or a state, a color is

revealed under the gold foil. So we are going to state keeping up with all of our

missions and outreach trips using these maps so we will have a visual of all the places

around the world that our district has touched. Sometimes it helps us to see where we

have been and where we have left to go.

Once again I want to thank you for this opportunity to serve our district. To serve you.

And I want you to know that I am available to you and to your church. I love to travel

and I love to meet people. If you need help with a meeting, if you need a missions

service presented, if you just want to changed things up. So please, use me, as the

District President it’s my job and my honor to be a resource. Whether it’s answering

questions by e-mail, messenger or text, sharing my heart in a ladies meeting or just

joining your services for a Faith Promise, I want to see our district succeed in Missions, in

Doing Life Together, and ultimately in Growing the Kingdom of Christ.

Thank you, Respectively Submitted

Cori Chesson

4. NYI President

Welcome and Greetings

Good evening and thank you all for being here tonight! I want to welcome our

District Superintendent, Rev. Chuck Fountain, pastors, youth pastors, NYI presidents,

youth workers, youth groups, and church representatives to the 2016 Louisiana District

NYI Convention! This is my fifth (5th) report as your District NYI President.

Praise Jesus and His Workers

I would like to take a minute and say THANK YOU for being here tonight. Pastors

and youth leaders, you being here is more than just a time for training or hearing a

report, it shows our teenagers that you genuinely care and support them in their

endeavor to allow Christ to reign in their lives. Teenagers, you being here shows our

adults that there is something good in this generation and that Christ is doing amazing

work in your lives. So again, Thank You!

Page 75

Also, I must give a special Thank You to GracePointe Church and my youth

group. They’ve allowed me to carry on my duties as the NYI President that have taken

me away from my local responsibilities at times. Thank you for your support and prayers.

Thank you to the 2015-2016 NYI Council! If you would, please stand and be

recognized at this time. These guys have sacrificed time away from their family and

church to call this generation to a dynamic life in Christ. I lean heavily on our NYI

Leadership. They have exceeded my expectations and I am grateful for them!

We also need to take a moment and recognize those who serve as youth

pastors, NYI Presidents, or youth worker volunteers. If you would, please stand. You

deserve recognition for the work you do with our teenagers! You make NYI possible on

the local level as well as on our district. You are vital parts of teenagers’ lives. Continue

to care for them, disciple them, and most importantly love them.

And last, but certainly not least, I must give a special Thank You to my wife,

Ciara. She has supported me in many ways: as her husband, father to our beautiful

daughter, pastor, and District NYI President, and her plate is full. She is an amazing

woman and I’m blessed to have her as my wife! Thank you for your support and your

love.

This past year was interesting for our family, to say the least. But God has

revealed and the Holy Spirit has directed like never before in my life. Not to sound

cliche, but I must thank Jesus Christ for what He’s done in my life and what He is doing

in my life! As church leaders, our work is in vain if it’s not Kingdom oriented. “All we do,

we do for the glory of God…”

Statistical Information for 2015

According to the 2015 District Journal, there were 469 members of NYI! That’s an

increase of 13 members! Awesome job pastors and youth leaders!

I would also like to take this time and recognize the churches who have helped

finance the Louisiana District NYI. This data is according to the March 2016 District

Newsletter. If your church paid 1% or 100% of your budgets, you helped make NYI

ministry possible for Louisiana. If you are the youth leader of the church, please stand. If

Page 76

the youth leader is not present, then pastor, please stand. Because of time, I will read

the churches somewhat fast. The churches are also on the slide.

SNU Extravaganza 2015

2015 Total Participants: 55

Extravaganza 2015 was great! There were close to 1000 students, parents, and

youth workers on the campus of Southern Nazarene University. Banning Dawson, SNU’s

Page 77

worship leader, lead us in worship and Brooklyn Lindsey spoke. We had several students

participate in sports and quizzing! God used this weekend in a mighty way!

Teen Bible Quizzing

2015 was the first time in a long time Louisiana had teen bible quizzers that

quizzed on our district. In previous years, a few churches quizzed with the once

Mississippi District and Dallas District. This year we had 5 churches participate with 17

student participants; and our teenagers quizzed fantastically last year! We competed in

St. Louis for a national quiz and we took 2 teams to Extravaganza. The teens quizzed

well both in teams and as individuals. Dawson Phillips finished 13th overall at

Extravaganza and our A-Team finished 1st in the Silver division. David Phillips did a

phenomenal job this year of directing our quizzers. Thank you to all who helped

resurrect teen bible quizzing in Louisiana! The Word of God does not return void. These

students are learning scripture that will forever impact their lives! David Phillips will be

teaching some Bible Quizzing basics tomorrow during the morning workshop session as

well as holding a Teen Bible Quiz camp on August 19 and 20. Please see him if you have

any questions or if you're interested in Teen Bible Quizzing.

SuperCamp 2015

Students: 74

Adults Sponsors: 41

Total Participants: 115

SuperCamp was awesome last year! Our theme was “LifeApps.” We challenged

students to trade in some of the apps that distract them from God for an “app” that

could bring them closer. These apps were Spiritual Disciplines. SNU Remedy lead

worship, the SNU Crew helped out in our activities and games, and Michael Pigg, South

Texas NYI President and youth pastor, spoke. Michael did a phenomenal job of

preaching through some of the disciplines. We also had a Q/A time in the mornings. This

gave the students an opportunity to anonymously text in questions throughout the

week and ask whatever they wanted about God, life, or whatever was on their mind.

Page 78

As I mentioned last year, I believe camps are arguably the greatest opportunities

we have as a district to impact the Kingdom of God. At no other time in the year do we

have 100 plus teenagers or kids gather to hear the Word of God. These are valuable

times in the lives of our students. Please make every effort to send your student to camp

this year!

NYC 2015

I’ve got a few students to help me out with the NYC portion of my report. If you would

please, make your way to the front. (Noah Terry, Hope Dupuy, Danae Phillips, and

Stephanie Brestle).

Stephanie: If you would, please share with us about your expectations of NYC. How did

it change throughout the week? How did these experiences impact you?

Noah: If you would, please share with us about our Pre-NYC mission project. Where did

we go, who did we meet, and what did we do? How did it impact you?

Hope: If you would, please share with us about your experience with the worship

services. Who was your favorite band, what was your favorite speak, and what was it

like praying the Lord’s Prayer with 7000 other people? How did it impact you?

Danae: If you would, please share with us your experience with the Uspiritus

organization. What did we do, what was your favorite part about the project, how did it

impact you?

NYC 2015 was amazing! God was present! From July 8-12, God moved, called,

equipped, and empowered those present at the conference. The students and adults

who attended NYC will be forever changed because of this “once in a lifetime”

opportunity. God’s kingdom is real!

Before NYC began, we met with Chad, the youth pastor of New Breed Church.

New Breed is a newstart church in the west side of Louisville, KY. The Shawnee

community is an underprivileged part of town. The majority of people live in poverty.

Chad led us on a prayer walk around the community. We met a couple of the church

members. God is doing some great things in this community!

Page 79

For our Mission With Others (MWO) project, we worked with Uspiritus, the largest

orphanage organization is Kentucky. We cleaned a creek and organized clothes. We

also got a chance to meet a few of the kids (we were not allowed to take their

pictures). Please pray for Uspiritus as they minister to kids and families in Kentucky.

When NYC registration began, our students, who had collected baby clothes,

diapers, and other things babies need, brought “bundles of hope.” These bundles of

hope will help serve over 200 organizations and countless families in the Louisville area.

Again, God moved in a mighty way at NYC! Thank you for your support during

our time in Louisville, KY. May God continue to bless our students, youth workers, pastors,

and churches as we continue to seek Him and His kingdom on earth. I have to thank

David Craig our NYC coordinator and the adult volunteers once again for their help.

NYC wouldn’t have been possible with you!

Revivalution/Turkey Bowl 2015

This is my report for Revivalution 2015. We hosted a Bible Quiz Meet to begin the

weekend, thanks to the hard work of quiz director David Phillips. Going into this event,

with the direction of the Holy Spirit, we developed the theme “The Call”. We wanted

the teens to understand and even learn a little bit about their leaders and youth

pastors. The decision was made to not pay a special speaker to come in for the event.

Instead, Charlie Ashby, Matthew Bryan, and I (Shane Weaver) each took a service and

shared testimonies about how God called us to ministry. We also led worship ourselves

instead of paying a band. David Hater, Charlie Ashby, Matthew Bryan, Joni Brown, Jeff

Brown, and I each took a role playing an instrument and/or leading vocally. I feel like

the worship was very much anointed and the teens participated extremely well. We

played many new games with the help of Cori Chesson, and Joni Brown. The human

foosball became the battle ring (much like the Voice) for the most epic lip sync battle

in Louisiana NYI history! Denise McKelvain and her team not only kept us fed, but they

fed us well. The Turkey Bowl was a big hit, minus the mosquitos! Throughout the

weekend we had trash cans set up at the front of the Tabernacle for people to write

down and throw away the “trash” that they wanted God to remove from their lives. We

took out a lot of “trash” as we left the grounds. It could not have happened any better

way, because the dumpsters were overflowing with trash from the whole weekend,

Page 80

they stunk, and we left reminded, with the stench in our noses, exactly where sin

belongs.

Challenge

As I mentioned earlier, 2015 was a great year for Louisiana NYI. Spiritual growth

took place, the Kingdom of God grew, and the Holy Spirit is continuing to transform

lives. My challenge for our pastors, youth pastors, youth ministry volunteers, and

teenagers is simple: keep going; don’t stop; press on! God is not done with you yet!

I mentioned in April’s newsletter that Extravaganza 2016 was a great way to kick

off NYI in 2016-2017. Of course, I’ll report on it next year, but we were challenged. Here,

at NYI Convention, I hope you are challenged with the training that will take place and

the reports you hear. At District Assembly in a few weeks, I hope you are challenged. At

our camps this year, I hope you are challenged. Why; because challenges cause us to

set goals, they cause us to think, they cause us to take action.

An area that I’ve been praying about for our District NYI is a student leadership

team. This team of students will be separate from the council, but work closely with the

council as we strive to reach this generation for Christ. This team of students will be

made up of students who feel called into the ministry, who display leadership skills, and

who have a genuine love for Christ. This team will aide in camp planning, small group

development, and retreat planning as we attempt to tap into the gifts God has blessed

our teens with, even in their young age.

I challenge you to do the same! Maybe your church has a student leadership

team. Maybe your teenagers are your kids ministry leaders and youth group leaders.

Maybe your teenagers are the only group who helps at VBS, but if not, it’s time to think

about including them in the church. I believe when kids and teengers are utilized in the

church, they stay in the church; into their college life, married life, and as parents. Why,

because they are apart of the church, not a part from the church… Who knows what

church board secretaries (God help them), church treasurers, Sunday school teachers,

worship leaders, and pastors might be in your church. The talent and gifts in your church

are waiting to be utilized for the kingdom. In the words of Shia LeBouf, “Do it!”

Page 81

Many years ago, my youth leader and pastor saw potential in me. A potential

I’m not sure I would’ve accepted had they not challenged me. I’d still be little ol’

Charlie had they not said, “Charlie, God has something special for you! I can see it.” I

could tell they meant it and so, I believed it. Talk to that student you see potential in;

mentor them; care for them; allow them to be apart of the church. No matter how far

from God you think they are, God still sees them for what they can become through His

mighty power at work within them!

Again thank you for another great year and thank again for being here this

evening. May God continue to bless you, your church, your youth ministry, and the

students you are reaching for Christ! With your help and through the direction of the

Holy Spirit, 2016 is going to be another Kingdom year for our district!

Together in Christ,

Rev. Charlie Ashby

President, Louisiana District NYI

C. DISTRICT ASSEMBLY COMMITTEES

1. Finance Committee

Page 85

We, your Committee on Finance, recommend: 1. Funding the Mission or FTM shall be the over arching name for all funds given by the local

church to support the mission of the church on the district, the region and the international or general church level. Hereafter called DFTM for the district expenditures; WEF or World Evangelism expenditures; P&B for Pension and Benefits expenditures; and Educational for regional college (SNU) expenditures.

2. The District Funding the Mission (FTM) shall consist of the District Operations Fund, Home Mission Fund, District Camp Fund and the District Auxiliary Funds (NYI, NMI and SDMI).

3. The World Evangelism Fund (WEF) the Pensions and Benefits Fund (P&B) and the Educational Fund (SNU) are separate from the District FTM.

4. That each church strive to pay the Funding the Mission (budgets) in full following a Biblical tithe and offering model. Churches should calculate the FTM (budgets) using the calculator provide at www.fundingthemission.org or the report form provided by the district. The FTM (budget) formula is computed on a base of all church income minus missions giving (which includes WEF, and approved specials). A. The budgets shall be considered paid in full when the following percentage of income

(as designated above) are given: World Evangelism Fund - WEF = 5.5% of income (set by the General Church) Pension & Benefits Fund - P&B = 2.25% of income (set by the General Church) Education Fund - SNU = 2.25% of income (set by the General Church) District Funding the Mission - FTM = 8% of income (if approved by this assembly this represents a 1% decrease for the local church and a 12% reduction on all district budgetary line items)

B. Each church is to report their weekly income to www.fundingthemission.org and the FTM are to be paid weekly to the respective FTM accounts. A. District FTM should be mailed to: Dajunna Howell, District Treasurer, 1419 Willis

7. That the District FTM (8% of church income minus WEF and Approved Specials) will be allocated as follows:

A. District Operations $131,150.00 B. Rocky Creek Camp $ 30,780.00 C. NMI $ 10,000.00 D. NYI $ 10,000.00 E. SDMI $ 10,000.00

8. All new start churches will be assigned funding allocations according to the following schedule: all new start churches that are not yet organized and officially designated Restart churches will give 10% of their offering into the Church Planting Fund and mail it to the District Treasurer as listed above each week.

Page 86

9. All new start churches will be encouraged to give generously to the WEF, approved specials and other mission giving and this be sent directly to the General Treasurer as listed above.

10. That new start churches using property allocated to them by the district will receive assistance for the first year of their meeting. The second year that assistance will be cut by 25% and the church must begin to pay a portion (25%) of the expenses. Further that each year thereafter the support be reduced from the district by 25% until the local church is fully funding all expenses.

11. That each pastor district the District Finance Committee report to their local church board within one month of the District Assembly.

12. That the District Operations Fund will be assigned an allocated as indicated in the budget worksheets (green) attached to this report.

13. The Advisory Board is “to act, in consultation with the district superintendent, as a Finance

Committee between assemblies with authority to adjust operational budgets as deemed necessary (MANUAL par. 222.13). Further that effective with the close of the 2016 District Assembly the District Advisory Board will be the Finance Committee for the District assemblies of the future.

14. The financial record of the district treasurer and departmental treasurers will be reviewed annually, in accordance with MANUAL par. 203.25. A copy of the report will be given to the District tAuditing Committee.

15. The District superintendent will be given a month’s vacation annually with pay, and will be

granted the privilege of holding revivals and conventions on the Louisiana District at his discretion. He will be allowed two weeks off the district for revivals and conventions.

16. The Louisiana Family newsletter will be posted on the district website www.ladistrict.org under the supervision of the district superintendent, the District Advisory Board, and the department heads.

17. Each local church can access an electronic district journal for free on the district website www.ladistrict.org.

18. The district boards and committee members will be reimbursed for mileage at 30 cents per mile and for meals and lodging expenses while attending called meetings.

19. Each church receiving district financial assistance will send a monthly financial report to the district treasurer. Funds will be mailed immediately upon receipt of the monthly report. This report shall be due no later than the 15th of each month.

20. The district superintendent will be reimbursed for all business and professional expenses under an accountable business expense reimbursement policy, as established by the District Advisory Board in accordance with IRS regulations 1.162-17 and 1.274-5(e).

21. Each church should pay the expenses of its elected delegates and ex officio members attending the district conventions and assembly.

22. Each church should provide for the proper accounting of all moneys as required by the Manual, paragraphs 129.21-24 and 136-136.6.

23. Each church should receive an annual offering for the Nazarene Bible College and the Nazarene Theological Seminary. The funds should be mailed to the following addresses: NBC to 1111 Academy Park Loop, Colorado Springs, CO 80910 and NTS to 1700 E. Meyer Blvd., Kansas City, MO 64131. These offerings shall be considered Approved Specials.

Pastoral Support 24. We recommend: Each church, where appropriate and possible, should endeavor to employ

its pastor on a full-time basis. 25. The pastors' and paid assistants' salaries are to be carefully reviewed annually (see Manual

paragraph 129.8). It should be recognized that a salary increase would not be an actual

Page 87

increase unless it is above the current cost-of-living index. When a pastor leads a church in growth that is reflected in increased finances, let this be a factor in determining the amount of increase in his/her salary and benefits. We further recommend that the 25% formula be implemented as follows: a. We recommend the salary and benefits reflect the "25% formula": 25% salary & cash benefits for pastoral staff, 25% property related items, mortgage debt, etc. [including pastoral housing], 25% ministry & programs, 25% denominational giving [budgets] and special offerings. b. We recommend that each church recognize $160,000 raised for all purposes is the level understood to be a viable church in ministry with the ability to support a full-time pastor. A pastor of a church raising less than $160,000 for all purposes may be permitted outside employment to supplement his/her income. c. Each church, when calling a new pastor, is responsible for covering the moving expense for the incoming pastor. An additional "settling in allowance" of a minimum of one week's salary should also be considered.

26. A study should be made of pastors' and associates' compensation to determine means of limiting tax liability. Professional assistance is available through the district office and Pensions and Benefits Office at the Global Ministry Center. We recommend that local churches seek assistance relating to the tax laws and their impact on tax liability of the pastor and associates.

27. The pastor's salary is to be considered a preferred claim over all other expenses. 28. The pastor should be given a love offering equal to at least one week's salary as a

Christmas gift. 29. Churches should carefully consider the benefits and implications of whether to offer their

pastor the opportunity to own his/her own home, or to provide a church-owned parsonage. 30. When a pastor or associate purchases his/her own home, a housing allowance should be

established commensurate with IRS policies and the 25% formula recommended in item #23. 29. If the parsonage is owned by the local church, the church is responsible for providing needed repairs and maintenance.

31. Since most insurance policies on a parsonage cover only contents owned by the church, we recommend the local church pay the extra premium for contents coverage or notify the pastor of his/her responsibility.

32. Health insurance for the pastor and associates should be provided by the local church. We also urge: a. Investigation into, and provision for, dental and vision care insurance. b. Consideration of reimbursement of the annual deductible and the medical expenses not paid by the insurance provider or alternative provider.

33. Consideration should be given to providing supplemental term life insurance and long-term disability insurance for the pastor and associates offered by the Global church.

34. The local church should provide for pastor's and associate's car expense reimbursement. Consideration should include operating cost, maintenance, depreciation, insurance and registration. Because of tax benefits, some churches may wish to provide a car for their pastor.

35. Each church should pay the pastor's expenses when attending district meetings (if not otherwise reimbursed).

36. Each church should set aside an amount, on a regular basis, to send its pastor and spouse to the general assembly and other conferences provided by the Global church.

37. Recognizing that official entertainment is a local church expense, consideration should be given to establishing an expense account to reimburse the pastor for expenses incurred in carrying out professional responsibilities.

38. The local church should reimburse the pastor for the full amount of the social security tax based on the total of his salary and housing allowance or parsonage rental value (including utilities), in harmony with the official IRS quarterly schedule.

Page 88

39. The local church should establish a retirement plan for the pastor through the tax-sheltered annuity programs offered by the Global church. This is an especially important item for those churches that provide a parsonage rather than a housing allowance for their pastor. A Global church-sponsored TSA can be used to provide housing for a minister in his/her retirement.

40. We urge each local church to pay their Pensions and Benefits Fund in full. This enables pastors and retired eiders to receive additional benefits.

41. The pastor should be given an annual paid vacation. We suggest the following schedule for the total years of full-time service, not just the tenure of service at the current assignment (vacation time should not be accumulated from year to year):

• 1-4 years—two weeks (14 days, including two Sundays);

• 5-14 years—three weeks (21 days, including three Sundays);

• 15 years and up—four weeks (28 days, including four Sundays);

• Each church should pay the supply minister in the pastor's absence.

42. That each church adequately compensate supply pastors for their service. Recommended compensation for pulpit supply would include travel (district approved amount of 30 cents per mile) and meals plus honoraria according to the following scale:

• For churches raising less than $50,000 per year: $50 per service

• For churches raising $50,000-$100,000 per year: $75 per service

• For churches raising $101,000-$300,000 per year: $100 per service

• For churches raising more than $300,000 per year: $150 per service

• He/she should be notified of this amount at the time of his/her call.

43. The pastor is urged to take at least one day each week for relaxation and refreshment of the mind, soul, and body. Since this is not always possible, we recommend compensating days off be given and that the local church insist on days off, not to carry over from one quarter to any other quarter.

44. Pastor Appreciation Day should be observed in October as a way to honor pastors and associates. During this time and other significant times during the year the local church should look for ways to meet special needs the pastor may have, or to give special honor to the pastor.

45. Out of a deep concern for our pastors and paid ministry staff to avoid burnout and stress and to keep a clear continuing vision for their church and ministry, we recommend that churches give a continuing professional development sabbatical for their pastor and paid ministry staff each time they have completed seven years of ministry in that local church or completed a major building program. This leave with pay and benefits should be from 4 to 8 weeks in length and would be in addition to regular vacation time with their family. This time would be used for rest, renewal, and study. This will aid our pastors and paid ministry staff in finding new creative ways to help the church accomplish its ministry vision. A rested and refreshed pastor and paid ministry staff will help to build even stronger relationships with their church. We strongly recommend that each church implement this policy.

46. Each church should encourage its pastoral staff to enrich its ministry by providing funds and time for continuing education. The church board can assist the staff in continuing education by providing a book allowance and/or an allotment for continuing education.

Page 89

Support of Evangelists

47. We recommend that full-time tenured, commissioned, and registered evangelists be

supported in the following manner: a. One or more revivals each year in the local church, and we strongly recommend the use of

Nazarene tenured, commissioned or registered evangelists. Churches may want to consider prayer retreats, lay witness missions, and other spiritual renewal emphases in lieu of one of the regularly designated revivals.

b. The church board set a minimum honorarium for the evangelist equal to twice the pastor's salary, including cash benefits, for each week (Sunday) of services, plus an adequate amount for travel. He/she should be notified of this minimum amount at the time of his/her call (Manual, par. 129.11).

c. We urge that, as a matter of policy, churches notify an evangelist at least 90 days prior to the scheduled date of the meeting in case of cancellation, or reimburse him/her one week's salary.

d. Where there is a pastoral change, the church board notifies the scheduled evangelist. e. We urge each church to follow the recommendation of Evangelism Ministries of sending a

Christmas love offering to each evangelist who held meetings within that church year. f. if a full-time commissioned or registered evangelist must cancel for health reasons, the

church is encouraged to send a love offering to the evangelist. Respectfully Submitted, Dajunna Howell, Secretary Charles Fountain Jr., Chairman
