TELL of HIS GOOD DEEDS
2013 ANNUAL REPORT
From THE PRESIDENT TELL OF HIS GOOD DEEDS “Many, Lord my God, are the wonders You have done, the things You planned for us. None can compare with You; were I to speak and tell of Your deeds, they would be too many to declare.” — Psalm 40:5, NIV This text sums up 2013 in the Columbia Union Conference quite well. I’m thankful to report that membership has increased, thousands came to know Christ and were baptized through our evangelism and community outreach efforts, school enrollment is up across our eight-state territory and, despite the economic climate, we even saw a small tithe increase. God is working in the Columbia Union, and I’m privileged to be a part of His work here and “tell of His good deeds.” Like the psalmist testified, there are indeed “too many to declare,” but I hope this summary will apprise you of a few of the ways we are addressing our stated priorities and helping to prepare people for Christ’s soon return. Courage,
Dave Weigley
President

More than 700 PASTORS GATHER FOR RENEWAL AND REJUVENATION attended our Themed iAbide, it was focused on John 15:5, which states “I am the vine, you are the He who abides in Me, and I in him, bears much fruit; for without Me you spiritual retreat branches. can do nothing” (NKJV). For three days, we met together for worship, to participate for pastors and in workshops, to gather resources and to fellowship over meals. We enjoyed the opportunity to connect with God; reconnect with families and colleagues; and receive spouses, our physical, mental and spiritual nourishment. Many renewed their commitment to call and mission and, based on the response, we believe that they returned to first since 2004. Christ’s their homes, churches and communities more committed than ever to finish the work and prepare people for Christ’s soon return.

ORDINATIONS
Photo: Keith Goodman
We continued to foster inclusive ministerial ordination by recognizing persons who have proven their call to gospel ministry, as voted by our constituents in 2012.
We participated in ordinations for five current female pastors and conferred emeritus ministerial credentials upon four retired female pastors: Josephine Benton, the first known female pastor in our denomination; Karen Flowers, who co-led General Conference Family Ministries for over two decades; Hazel Burns (left), a pastor at the Kettering church in Ohio; and Margaret Turner (center), a chaplain for Kettering Medical Center in Dayton, Ohio. We also ordained our union treasurer, Seth Bardu (right), because he has demonstrated not only his gift in finance, but also his calling to ministry through preaching, teaching and building God’s kingdom.
NOTABLE PERSONS OF HONOR
Samuel DeShay, PhD, MD, a speaker and author who also served in Africa as a medical missionary; Carol Wright, our union undertreasurer, who has thus far served two decades; Henry Wright, the longest serving pastor in our union, with 50 years so far; Raj Attiken, who recently retired as president of Ohio Conf.
Sedley Johnson is a Chesapeake Conference pastor and tireless crusader for Christ in Baltimore.
We recognized persons who have made a significant contribution to the mission and ministry in our church and in the community.
Roscoe Bartlett (left), a member of the U.S. House of Representatives for 20 years, and a faithful Chesapeake Conference member, was honored for public service.

MISSION STORY We shared some of God’s blessings and resources at home and in areas of the world where there is great need.
We worked with each conference to identify community-based mission projects that relate to our priorities. In 2013 we awarded $211,000 to 20 such projects for church plants, youth mentoring programs, house churches and other evangelism initiatives. At the fall meeting of the Union Executive Committee, Bill Robertson and Fred Manchur, our healthcare CEOs, received a thank-you plaque for their joint organizational donation of $25,000 to the Ruby Nelson Memorial Hospital in India, as presented by medical director Jacob Prabhakar Chindrupu. It helped the hospital to obtain much-needed equipment to perform cataract surgeries and is expanding our church’s ability to share the gospel as well.
ENGAGING YOUNG ADULTS We took three positive steps to address our priority of engaging young adults in experiencing the mission.
6
1 We voted to establish the Columbia Union School of Evangelism, which will involve young adults in full-time soul winning and mission opportunities.

We invited A. Allan Martin, PhD, a professor, author, pastor and advocate for young adult engagement in the church, to make a special presentation to our union executive committee about young adult attrition. He shared the stark statistic that 60-70 percent of young people leave the Seventh-day Adventist Church. He then offered information about why this happens and what they’re seeking. His presentation sparked a thought-provoking discussion among committee members and online via our news outlets. We convened a special advisory comprised of the young adults who serve on the union executive committee and anticipate the recommendations they will bring to future meetings.

“We must actively work to ensure operational improvements and instructional efficiencies so that we can become a more competitive force in the areas of academic quality; student enrollment, tuition and debt; and faculty compensation and workload,” Spence reports. “We need to more fully align with the national profile of independent colleges and universities by being diverse, affordable, personal, involved, flexible and committed to student success.”
KETTERING COLLEGE Under the leadership of Charles Scriven and then Alex Bryan, Kettering College maintained a strong enrollment of 900 and graduated 270. They continue to engage students, faculty, community and alumni through a number of service initiatives including sponsoring concerts, cleaning up neighborhoods, organizing and collecting donations and distributing food and other items to those in need. They also hosted 36 Adventist academy principals, conference education directors, and academy recruiters for a marketing recruitment workshop.

Fortysix years later, and led by secretary/treasurer Peggy Lee, CURF continues to make ministry possible by funding purchasing, building and renovation projects. In 2013 they voted 69 new loans, most of which has been drawn, bringing their total to 285 loans outstanding, with a total loan balance of over $88.19 million.
Leaders break ground for Potomac Conference’s Restoration Praise Center—one of many projects made possible with a CURF loan.
