Tenth Session of The Upper New York Annual Conference Wednesday, June 5, 2019 Clergy Session 1 p.m. The Rev. Brian Fellows and the Rev. Susan Russell, co-chairs of Board of Ordained Ministry (BOM) opened the clergy session by explaining BOM’s approach to the recent decision by the special session of General Conference regarding the Church’s stance on the issue of human sexuality. One member of BOM recently attended a session regarding The Way Forward to get a sense of clarity. At that session, representatives from the General Board of Higher Education and Ministry (GBHEM) explained that it is their understanding that it is not the work of BOM and District Committee on Ordained Ministry to ascertain the sexuality of candidates. Fellows and Russell explained that if someone declares that they are self-avowed LGBTQAI+, they will enter conversations around that, but will make no assumptions. Rev. Fellows led the opening prayer, which was followed by the singing of the hymn, And Are We Yet Alive. The clergy care offering was taken. Rev. Russell led the prayer of dedication. Organizational Motion Rev. Fellows, BOM co-chair, moved the adoption of the following: The clergy membership of the Annual Conference consists of deacons and elders in full connection, provisional members, associate members, affiliate members, and local pastors under full-time and part-time appointment to a pastoral charge. The following specifies voting privileges as identified in The 2016 Book of Discipline ¶602.1: a. Clergy members in full connection shall have the right to vote on all matters in the Annual Conference except in the election of lay delegates to the General and Jurisdictional or Central Conferences and shall have sole responsibility for all matters of ordination, character, and Conference relations of clergy. b. Provisional clergy members shall have the right to vote in the Annual Conference on all matters except constitutional amendments and matters of ordination, character, and Conference relations of clergy. c. Associate and affiliate clergy members shall have the right to vote in the Annual Conference on all matters except constitutional amendments, and matters of ordination, character, and Conference relations of clergy. d. Full-time and part-time local pastors under appointment to a pastoral charge shall have the right to vote in the Annual Conference on all matters except constitutional amendments; and matters of ordination, character, and Conference relations of clergy. e. Per ¶605.7 Lay members of BOM have voice and vote in clergy session. Further we grant permission for Mary Bradley (Office Manager to Bishop Webb) and Mary Dalglish and Crystal Cole (lay person on the staff and volunteer of the Upper New York Conference Communications Ministry Area, respectively) to be in the session with voice but not vote. Technicians required for sound and video may be present with neither voice nor vote. Technicians with the voting equipment may be present with no voice or vote. The motion received a second. It was adopted. The following questions were addressed at clergy session: Q17. Are all clergy members of the Conference blameless in their life and official administration (¶604., 605.6)? The Rev. Nola Anderson, Dean of the Cabinet, answered on behalf of the cabinet: “In almost every case, our clergy members are blameless in life and character. The performance of every ordained minister and

Tenth Session of The Upper New York Annual Conference Wednesday, June 5, 2019 Opening Plenary Upper New York Area Resident Bishop Mark J. Webb opened the 10th session of the Upper New York Annual Conference at 3:30 p.m. He introduced those sitting at the table on stage: to his right, Susan Hardy, Conference Lay leader; and to his left, Rev. Jeff Hodge, Conference Secretary. Conference Secretary Hodge explained the boundary of the Conference and the process for requesting to speak. Bishop Webb explained the time limit for speakers. Organizational Motion The Conference secretary moved the adoption of the Organizational Motion. It was seconded. The Rev. Jeff Childs, clergy, moved to amend the Organizational Motion, deleting the words (on line 37) “shall raise their colored placard at their seat and wait to be recognized by the bishop. When recognized they … ” and insert the words “when recognized by the Bishop,” on line 39. It was seconded. Rev. Jeff explained that the amendment was intended to cut down on the confusion of calling on people in the large room and save the time it takes for people to get to microphones. Instead they should line up at a microphone and be called upon to speak by the Bishop. Blenda Smith, laity, made an amendment to the amendment to include name, gender, clergy or laity, your church, and your district when you are recognized at the microphone. The amendment to the amendment was supported. Discussion continued on the original amendment to the motion. Several opposed the motion, arguing that going to the microphones before being recognized by the Bishop will cause back-ups in the aisle and only add to confusion, not cut down on it. The secretary read the new motion, as amended: Number 10, securing the floor – “Conference members wishing to speak to the Conference shall move to the nearest microphone when recognized by the bishop. Please state your name, gender, clergy or laity, local church, and district.” The motion as amended was not supported. Paul Sweet, laity, sought clarification on the election of delegates to General and Jurisdictional Conference. UNY Director of Connectional Ministries and Assistant to the Bishop the Rev. Bill Gottschalk-Fielding, who also serves as co-chair of the Rules Committee, explained that the procedures are shared on the website and in Volume I of the Conference Journal. The Rev. Paul Robinson, clergy, questioned whether the instructions to introduce oneself at the mic, that were part of the Secretary’s opening instructions, were still part of the Organizational Motion since the amendment failed. The secretary explained that the introductions as outlined in the beginning, assist the Conference in its monitoring but are not part of the Organizational Motion. The Organizational Motion was adopted. Consent Calendar 30

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

The Conference secretary explained that the Consent Calendar appears on page 8 in Volume I of the Journal, as well as the Conference app. They needed to make one addition to the Consent Calendar. Number 23, for the Special Sunday Giving Report, which was added to the calendar. Secretary Hodge moved the adoption of the Consent Calendar. Pastor Nate Lange sought to put the narrative report portions of trustees and Conference Council on Finance & Administration on the Consent Calendar. Bishop Webb explained that since there are actionable pieces for both, that was not possible, but chairs of both committees have heard the suggestion to keep their reports brief and have an opportunity to heed that advice. The Consent Calendar was adopted. Agenda Rev. Bill Gottschalk-Fielding, Chair of the Agenda Committee, moved the adoption of the published agenda. Pastor Kevin Slough made a motion to amend the “Agenda of UNYAC 2019.” Due to our denomination’s irreconcilable differences, both theologically and in matters of our biblical understanding of human sexuality and the fact that all petitions and resolutions that seek to be in non-conformity with the General Conference of The United Methodist Church will be ruled out of order at both the Annual Conference level and by the Judiciary Council, that instead of further harming one another in debate, we remove all petitions and resolutions regarding human sexuality from our agenda and instead work productively and together on perfecting Resolution GC2020.1 – A Way Forward: Pursuing a Considered and Cooperative Schism. Petitions and resolutions for removal include: UNYAC2019.1 – out of order; UNYAC 2019.2 – out of order; UNYAC2019.3 – encouraging UNYAC to go against denomination and GC; UNYAC2019.5 – out of order; UNYAC2019.8 – questionable candidacy; UNYAC2019.10 – appointed clergy have individual right what to teach in local church; and UNYAC2019.14 – out of order Ian Urriola, laity, moved to postpone the motion indefinitely. He stated that in the spirit of holy conferencing to the motions coming to the Conference that they should be heard. Several spoke both for and against the motion. There was a question to clarify what postponing the motion would accomplish. The secretary noted that approval would set aside Slough’s motion and move forward with consideration of the agenda. Bishop Webb explained that, “when an important matter is unexpectedly brought before the assembly, it is for the opposition to learn how many members are in favor of this main motion before the main motion comes to a vote. This is accomplished by moving to postpone indefinitely. It opens the main question to debate. When the vote is finally taken on the motion to postpone indefinitely, those opposed to the main question, main motion, will vote for the motion to postpone indefinitely. While those in favor of the main motion would vote against the motion to postpone indefinitely.” The motion to postpone was supported. The agenda was adopted. Suspension of the rules – Kevin Nelson, Home Missioner, laity, moved to suspend the rules, specifically rule #3, to allow 10 write-in votes for laity delegates to General/Jurisdiction Conference, rather than 25. The motion to suspend the rules was supported.

Monitoring Report Bishop Webb recognized Krystal Cole, laity, representing the Committee on the Status and Role of Women (COSROW) and Blenda Smith, laity, representing the Conference Committee on Religion and Race (CCORR). They explained the purpose for monitoring worship and plenary sessions and the process they used over the next few days. Greetings The Annual Conference received greetings via video from the Rev. Prince G. Singh, Bishop of the Episcopal Church Dioceses in Rochester, and the Rev. Peter Cook of the New York State Council of Churches. The Rev. Sara Baron, clergy, asked if “orders of the day” were included as part of the agenda that was just passed. The Rev. Bill Gottschalk-Fielding, Chair of the Agenda Committee, explained that according to Roberts Rules of Order, there are no “orders of the day,” but there are specific things scheduled as part of each plenary session. Bishop Webb noted that the “Black College Fund Ambassador” is often introduced as an “order of the day” out of respect for the speaker and their travel schedule. Prior to the first ballot, the clergy and laity participated in a practice balloting session. The Rev. Carmen Perry led the dinner prayer. The session was in recess for dinner. Evening plenary was scheduled for 7:30 p.m.

Some of you may have just shrugged and said, ‘Oh, well.’ That is white privilege. That we would assume our Jesus was from Sweden or Germany. That’s why we’re doing imagine no races so we can be more sensitive and open our hearts, our minds, our eyes to truth,” she explained. Conference Board of Pensions & Health Benefits The Rev.

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

Disaffiliation of a local church Rev. Barling explained the newly created ¶2553 in The United Methodist Book of Discipline, concerning the disaffiliation of a local church over issues related to human sexuality. In April, the Judicial Council found the new paragraph, providing a process for local churches to exit the denomination, to be constitutional. This new section provides for a limited right for the churches to leave for reasons of conscience regarding a change in the requirements and provisions of The Book of Discipline related to the practice of homosexuality or the orientation or marriage of self-avowed practicing homosexuals as resolved and adopted by the 2019 General Conference. This process of disaffiliation must be completed by Dec. 31, 2023. For a local church to adopt a disaffiliation petition, it must be done so at the church’s Conference by a two-thirds vote. GCF&A has developed a form for disaffiliation by use for annual conferences. The Conference Board of Trustees is to establish the terms and conditions of disaffiliation. Once a local church has voted to disaffiliate, a disaffiliation agreement will need to be negotiated between the local church and the Conference Board of Trustees. The Annual Conference may develop additional standard terms for disaffiliation that are not inconsistent with GCF&A form. These shall be established by the Board of Trustees of the applicable Annual Conference with the advice of the Cabinet, the Annual Conference Treasurer, the Annual Conference benefits officer, the Director of Connectional Ministries and the Annual Conference Chancellor. The disaffiliation agreement needs to contain this statement of conscience by the local church and amount that the local church needs to pay for any unpaid apportionments for the 12 months prior to the disaffiliation as well as an additional 12 month of apportionments thereafter. An amount equal to local church’s pro-rated share of the pension option of the Conference. The local church must also satisfy all other debts, loans, and liabilities assigned and transfer them to a new entity prior to disaffiliation. All such payments shall occur prior to the affected date of departure. The disaffiliation agreement may also indicate that the local church may retain its real and personal property. Lastly, all disaffiliation agreements must be ratified by simple majority of the members of the Conference president and voting as was stated in a judicial council decision 1379. Your board of trustees has already started to consult with Cabinet and other key positions that are referenced in the new ¶2553. We also intend to consult broadly within the Conference to make sure that people’s views are heard on those considerations that the Board of Trustees will rely upon in negotiating and finalizing any disaffiliation agreement. The trustees intend to report back to the Conference in writing with a decision of the disaffiliation process and the guidelines the Board of Trustees will be considering in negotiating the agreement with departing churches. Election of Trustees Secretary Hodge explained the process for electing trustees by paper ballot. There are three candidates for three openings: Benjamin Hill, laity, first term; Harold Schmidt, laity, for a second term; and the Rev. Pamela Klotzbach for a first term. The term expires in 2023. Paper ballots were distributed by the tellers. The Rev. Sara Baron moved to postpone the trustee’s election until the nominations committee can offer more options. It was seconded. There were several speeches both in favor and against the motion to postpone. The Rev. Beckie Sweet, clergy, moved to amend the motion, deleting the words “is able to offer us more options” and replace it with “can bring to us an additional slate of trustee candidates containing one male, one female, one clergy, one lay, both persons of color.”

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

Thursday, June 6, 2019 Afternoon Plenary Bishop Webb called the afternoon plenary session to order at 2:30 p.m. Returning to the amendment to the motion to postpone, Bishop Webb explained that the Board of Trustees is limited to 12 members. The Conference secretary read from The United Methodist Book of Discipline ¶2512, which states that the board must include one-third clergy; one-third lay women; one-third lay men; must be at least 18 years of age. After the reading of the disciplinary paragraph, the original motion was amended by Rev. Beckie Sweet to postpone the election of trustees until the time this body makes nominations for two persons of color. There was much discussion, with speeches both for and against the amendment. Rev. Scott Johnson proposed an amendment to the amendment to delete the number of “two” in the original amendment. The amendment was supported. A motion was made to amend the amended motion to read: A motion to postpone the election of trustees until a more diverse slate is brought forth from the nominating committee to be added to the slate of nominees. After much discussion, there was a motion to postpone indefinitely. The Bishop asked the chancellor for clarification.

Dave Masland, Director of New Faith Communities, to make a presentation. In 2013, the Upper New York Conference set a goal to plant 100 new faith communities by 2020. By the end of 2018, 130 new faith communities were launched. Not all communities have proven sustainable over time, whereas others have and have now been moved off the new faith community list because they’re now self-sustaining, disciple making congregations. Today, there are 96 active new communities in various stages and development in the Upper New York area. These groups are reaching new people, introducing them to Jesus, and transforming lives. Since 2013, new faith communities have been funded with income through the sold properties of churches that have closed. This income is not consistently reliable. It fluctuates from year-to-year, making long-term planning difficult. In 2019, an additional funding source is being implemented, called “New Places for New People” partners. Together, Bishop Webb and Rev. Masland invited individuals to donate $100 and churches to become partner churches with a donation of $500. Every individual that gives $100 or more receives a button that reads, “I’m a new places for new people partner.” Every church that gives $500 or more will receive a frameable certificate that says, “We are a new place for new people partner church.” Fourth Laity Ballot Results 606 ballots cast; 0 invalid ballots; 304 required to elect.

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

Bishop Webb indicated that before the balloting, all write-in candidates would be introduced and would be invited but not required to provide copies of written information unless the rules were suspended. Rachel Giso said she was not interested in suspending the rules. Second Jurisdictional Conference Ballot Those interested in completing a write-in ballot were invited to come forward.

Petitions and Resolutions Bishop Webb introduced Suzanne Allen, laity, chair of the Conference Committee on Petitions and Resolutions. There were 31 petitions and resolutions for consideration. Suzanne Allen led a prayer. Recommendation from the Task Force on Peace and Justice in Palestine/Israel – Sovereign Debt of Countries Involved in Prolonged Military Operations The Rev. Merle Showers presented the petition and spoke in favor of it. Rev. Showers explained that while Wespath has a policy not to purchase sovereign debt of countries that violate the law or commit human rights violations, the Task Force on Peace and Justice has identified three nations who are in violation of this policy, but that Wespath has not taken a position against. These three nations – Israel occupying Palestine, Turkey occupying northern Cypress and Morocco occupying Northern Sahara – have occupied these territories for over 40 years and have been condemned by the United Nations for breaking the law and the international criminal court for violating human rights in those territories that they occupy. The petition asks that Wespath and all boards and agencies that have investment funds not invest in those three nations’ sovereign debt and we’re asking local churches and other agencies of The United Methodist Church that have investment, not to invest in that – the sovereign debt of those three nations; and that if it passes, that the resolution be passed on to General Conference so that the Church may signal to Wespath that it would like them to take action. There were arguments both for and against this petition. The recommendation was supported. Recommendation from the Social Holiness Team – Teen Sexual – Identity and Suicide Risk The Rev. Alan Kinney, chair of the Social Holiness Team, explained that the purpose of this resolution is to disseminate information to the area’s local churches and its people about what is happening to young people. The second leading cause of death to teenagers is suicide. Rev. Kinney explained that research shows that one of the leading reasons is the confusion of sexual identity at this age. This resolution seeks to share the 44

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

information with our local churches within our communities in the hope to retard the death by suicide of our precious young people. Pastor Giovanna Claudio-Cotto, clergy proposed an amendment, striking lines 36-37 from page one, starting with “lesbian” and replacing it with “teen suicide and mental health.” Also, striking line 40 from page one, starting with “among” to “identity;” striking “LGBTQ” from page two, line four, and strike line 6-7 on page two starting with “sexual identity” and replacing it with “suicide and mental health.” The amendment received a second. Pastor Claudio-Cotto said that, according to the National Alliance on Mental Illness, one in five teens and young adults ages 14-24 live with a mental health condition; and according to the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, suicide is the third leading cause of death in young people between the ages of 10 and 24 resulting in about 4,600 deaths in the United States each year. When mental illness is undiagnosed or untreated it can lead to suicide. She explained that as a teacher and administrator in one of the biggest high schools in Buffalo, she can attest to a growing concern in school systems regarding mental health and the emotional stability of our children and youth. Having dealt first-hand with students that have attempted suicide, the reasons behind such acts are as varied as the persons that suffer through these conditions. Although gender identity is a reason, it is not the only reason. The many changes that puberty bring, as well as the stress of balancing academics and social life in such a digital age, all play a role. There were several speeches both for and against the amendment. Rev. Jeff Childs, clergy, proposed an amendment to the amendment to “meld” the proposals so as not to exclude LGBTQAI+, but also to retain that language along with mental health: Therefore, be it resolved, the Social Holiness Team of the Upper New York Annual Conference and the United Methodist Women of the Upper New York Annual Conference request that the Upper New York Annual Conference empower the Social Holiness Team to: • • • • • •

Publish, in laypeople's terms, a summary of current U.S. and global research on “teen suicide and mental health.” Including, but not limited to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) youth who are at risk for suicide. Work with organizations currently doing research on these issues. Provide a directory of agencies in Upper New York working on issues of teen suicide. among youth dealing with issues of sexual identity. Provide a directory of resources for congregations and families that provides accurate information, recommendations for programs, and pastoral guidance. Consider recommendations for legislative actions within The United Methodist Church to help prevent teen suicide including but not limited to LGBTQ persons. Make recommendations for programs for youth through congregations, districts, and the Annual Conference that address teen “suicide and mental health.” including but not limited to sexual identity and suicide risk.

recommendation was supported. Rev. Robert Dean prayed after the vote. Bishop Webb welcomed West Virginia Resident Bishop Sandra Steiner Ball, who served as the 2019 ordination preacher, to sit beside the Bishop during plenary. UNYAC2019.1 – Action of Nonconformity with the General Conference of The United Methodist Church Kevin Nelson, laity, presented the petition. Bishop Webb advised that this petition as currently written is out of order. Both “therefore be it resolved” sections are not aspirational in nature and they’re calling for the Annual Conference to disregard The Book of Discipline of The United Methodist Church. He invited the body to bring this petition in order. Sam Smith, laity, moved the following amendment, striking and replacing lines 25-40: “Therefore, be it resolved that we the Upper New York Annual Conference, long passionate followers of Jesus Christ, committed to a Wesleyan vision of Christianity, anchored in scripture, and informed by tradition experience and reason as we live a life of personal piety and social holiness.” “Be it further resolved that we, the Upper New York Annual Conference, reaffirm our commitment to resist evil, injustice and oppression in all forms and toward all people and build a church which affirms the full participation of all ages, nations, races, classes, cultures, gender identities, sexual orientation, and abilities. Be it further resolved that we, the Upper New York Annual Conference condemn the traditional plan approved at General Conference 2019 as inconsistent with the Gospel of Jesus Christ and aspire to resist, to the best of our ability, its implementation; And be it further resolved that we the Upper New York Annual Conference aspire to eliminate discriminatory language and the restrictions and penalties in the Discipline regarding LGBTQAI+ persons. We affirm the sacred worth of LGBTQAI+ persons and celebrate their gifts and commit to being in ministry together. There was much discussion about the amendment, with three arguments for and against it. The amendment was not supported. That left the original petition without amendments. Consideration of the petition was be paused until after lunch. Aiosa Challenge re-visited Rev. Jeff Aiosa, clergy, reported that he had raised twice as much as originally proposed, and offered to go “double or nothing” with the bishop. Bishop Webb said he would wear the proposed hat, but if Rev. Aiosa was able to raise $5,000, both he and Bishop Steiner-Ball would wear hats for five minutes. Kevin Nelson asked Bishop Webb if he would wear a rainbow stole if the body raised $7,500. Conference Secretary Hodge made several announcements before lunch. Blenda Smith, laity, presented the workshop schedule and encouraged participation. Rev. Sung Ho Lee provided the luncheon prayer. Plenary was dismissed for lunch.

Ms. Lawson thanked The United Methodist Church in general and Upper New York specifically for funding the Black College Fund and helping to fulfill her college dreams. She said it was an honor to serve as a Black College Fund ambassador and tell her and others’ stories. “It is an honor to have this experience and an honor to be a United Methodist woman, an honor to be a black woman, and an honor that The United Methodist Church supports me in my dreams to continue my education as I go to graduate school and continue my education as I study abroad,” Ms. Lawson said. “To make sure that you see this face being a representative where your money is going to. Without you all, I wouldn't be here today right now speaking to you. It is very emotional for me to know that the UMC has my back and to make sure I graduated.” Bishop Webb thanked Ms. Lawson for her powerful message. “You just heard a testimony of what God does when United Methodists practice stewardship; when United Methodists practice the giving of first fruits; when United Methodists open up their hearts, their minds, their spirits, and their wallets, Bishop Webb said. “To support what God is desiring to do. You heard a story that we’ve been part of, and we only received 83 percent of ministry share payments last year. Even when we didn’t pay 100 percent of our General Church apportionments, we paid 100 percent of the Black College Fund. Thank you for reminding us of the opportunity that we have and for leading us in being the church God has called us to be.” Second Jurisdictional Conference Clergy Ballot Results 318 ballots cast; 0 invalid ballots; 160 required to elect; Rev.

Jeff Childs proposed an amendment, removing the word “will” and inserting the words “aspires to” so that the line reads, “The UNYAC aspires to not conform to, comply, or cooperate with any of the provisions of the Traditional Plan … ” A second was received. Rev. Childs explained that he hopes this amendment would bring the petition into constitutionality. There were speeches both for and against the amendment. The amendment was not supported. There were arguments both for and against the petition. Rev. John McNeill moved to suspend the rules on debate. There was a second. The new rule would be as follows:

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

In the consideration of petitions or resolutions the chair will only recognize members to speak for or against the resolution, to move a substitute petition or resolution, or to make a point of order or parliamentary inquiry. Amendments to petitions or resolutions and questions concerning the content of petitions will be ruled out of order by the chair. This rule does not apply to resolutions or petitions that requires specific actions of our pastors or congregations. The chair of the committee on petitions and resolution shall have the discretion to determine which petitions and resolutions require such specific actions. Bishop Webb asked to delay consideration of the suspension until after the current petition is addressed. There was additional discussion. At the conclusion of debate, Bishop Webb declared this petition out of order: “An Annual Conference cannot vote to disregard any decisions of the General Conference. Judicial Council decision 1327 supports this ruling that this petition is out of order. Judicial Council decision 1327 dealt with the decision of law regarding an action of nonconformity adopted by the New England Annual Conference on June 17, 2016. That decision stated that the affirmation that relates to certification, ordination, and appointment are in violation of ¶304.3. The provision of the affirmation relating to homosexual unions violates ¶341.6. Similarly, the funding provisions of the affirmation violate ¶613.19 and ¶806.9. Thus, all portions of the “Action of Nonconformity” contained in the be it resolved are in direct violation of church law and illegal under the relevant disciplinary provisions. It is also out of order because The Book of Discipline does not allow annual conferences to impose financial controls or eliminate funding for fair process proceedings based on the nature of charges per the Judicial Council decision 1340. Kevin Nelson, laity, appealed the decision of the chair: “We have the power to overrule Bishop Webb on this with a simple majority vote. If we were to overrule him, that is a legitimate exercise of our parliamentary powers and it would be for the purpose of being able to vote on this and to make our statement about where this conference stands,” Nelson explained. “And, so, that is essentially what I am asking us to do, to overrule Bishop Webb's parliamentary ruling and to take our vote to make our statement as a Conference.” Bishop Webb explained that, if his ruling is overruled by the body, the petition would be voted on. If not, the petition would remain ruled out of order. The Bishop’s ruling was sustained by a vote of 595-455. Rev. John McNeill moved for the suspension of rules on debate. The motion to suspend the rules was supported by a vote of 793, yes to 251, no. The proposed rule was adopted. UNYAC2019.2 – UNYAC Response to Actions of 2019 General Conference Suzanne Allen, Chair of the Committee on Petitions and Resolution, introduced Rev. Beckie Sweet to make an opening statement. Bishop Webb explained that, as written, the petition remains “out of order.” The second, "Therefore, be it resolved, is not aspirational in nature and calls for the Annual Conference to disregard The Book of Discipline of the United Methodist Church. Kevin Nelson, laity, a home missioner, spoke in favor of the petition. Rev. Gary Kubitz made a point of order. Due to an earlier rule made under a suspension of rules, no amendments were allowed. J.J. Warren, laity, questioned why the petition was still considered out of order even after the petitioner worked with the committee to get it in order. 48

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

Committee Chair Allen explained why rewording was still out of order. The goal was to get the petition to the floor at Annual Conference session. We try to get petitions worded so they can get to the floor and not do harm, so they could be discussed and debated during plenary. Rev. Beckie Sweet explained that the committee was diligent in working with petitioners to get wording acceptable for Annual Conference, and she thought the new wording would be acceptable. Bishop Webb explained that he was not part of that process. As it stands, the petition is still out of order. Rev. Doug Mackey explained that he voted for the new rule because he was under the impression that petitions as presented would be acceptable. I want to request a new vote since it does not seem to be the case. J.J. Warren, laity, made a motion to reconsider the rule. Rev. Bill Gottschalk-Fielding, co-chair of the Rules Committee, spoke in favor of a motion to reconsider. Reconsideration was approved by a vote of 491, yes; 487, no. It was adopted. Original rules apply. Rev. Carmen Perry made a motion to remove the words “be it further resolved that we strongly recommend that UNYAC refrain from expending funds or monies (either directly through payments or indirectly through the time of employees of the Conference) for the purpose of background investigations, complaints, just resolutions, or clergy trials pertaining to LBGTQIA+ ordination and marriage.” It received a second. Rev. Nancy Stanley moved to amend the amendment by removing the word “and” that precedes the words/lines that are being amended, and all that follows. It was seconded. The amendment to the amendment was supported. Discussion of the amendment continues, with speeches both in favor and against the amendment. The amendment was not supported by a vote of 420, yes; 560, no. Debate was paused to allow for the new written trustee’s ballot. Election of Trustees Tony Hipes, chair of Nominations & Leadership Development, explained the job description of a trustee, and gave a brief biographical description of each of the nominees, including the new nominees that had been recruited and vetted by Nominations and Leadership Development. Prior to the vote, Rev. Hipes was asked to remind the body of the race/ethnicity of each of the candidates: Rev. Stephen Crowell is Native American, from the Seneca nation; Benjamin Hill is white; Tracy Jackson, African-American; Rev. Patience Kisakye, African from Uganda; Rev. Pamela Klotzbach is white; Harold Schmidt, white; and Sanjay Solomon, Indian. There was a prayer prior to the vote. The vote was taken by paper ballot.

Vivian Waltz, clergy, made an opening statement in support of the petition. Bishop Webb advised that, with its current wording, the petition was out of order. “Even though the word aspire is used, the intent of the paragraph is to direct District Committees on Ministry and the Board of Ordained Ministry, with the wording, ‘without regard to sexual orientation’ or gender identity,” the Bishop explained. Matthew Williams, laity, moved to suspend the rules on debate as follows: 1. Debate on any further resolutions or petitions at this session of Annual Conference be limited to one speech for and one speech against; and that each of these speeches be granted a maximum of 90 seconds; and 2. That the submitter of the resolution or petition under consideration be given 90 seconds to speak prior to debate and 60 seconds post-debate. The submitter shall be in addition to the speeches for and against; and 3. That the maker of a motion or amendment be given 60 seconds prior to debate which shall be in addition to the speeches for and against; and if absolutely necessary, 60 seconds post-debate; and Finally, that we retain our tradition of prayerfully pausing before the final vote on the resolution or petition before us. The motion to suspend the rules was supported. The new rule was adopted. Rev. Molly Golando proposed amending the petition by striking the words “aspire to,” and the word “sole” and add “pursuing information in regard to.” 53

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

UNYAC 2019.9 – Assisting with the Interpretation of Speeches by Ecumenical Interfaith Leaders Pastor Edwin Jaqua made an opening statement, suggesting that, while information provided by ecumenical interfaith leaders can be potentially enlightening, it may be difficult to interpret for some members of a Conference without a way to connect what is said by such leaders with Methodist/Wesleyan Christian beliefs and teachings that are our background source of reference. There was discussion on the proposed petition, with debate both for and against the motion. Pastor Melanie Simmons proposed an amendment, eliminating the second “therefore be it resolved” in its entirety. There were arguments against the amendment. The amendment was not supported by a vote of 340 yes; 501 no. Rev. Rachel Stuart made a motion to refer the petition to the Conference Sessions Team and Conference Commission on Religion and Race.

UNYAC2019.14 – Clergy Authority to Perform Weddings Suzanne Allen, laity, chair of Petitions and Resolutions, read the “Therefore be it Resolved.” Bishop Webb ruled the petition out of order, explaining that the “therefore be it resolved” is not aspirational in nature and calls for the Conference to disregard The Book of Discipline of The United Methodist Church. A Conference cannot vote to disregard any decision of the General Conference. The 2016 Book of Discipline of the United Methodist Church, ¶341.6 states that ceremonies that celebrate homosexual unions shall not be conducted by our ministers and shall not be conducted in our churches. This petition encourages a violation of church law. Judicial Council decision 1262 supports my ruling that this petition is out of order. Rev. Alan Kinney appealed the Bishop’s ruling. The Bishop’s ruling was upheld by a vote of 540 yes; to 333 no. GC2020.1 – A Way Forward: Pursuing a Considered and Cooperative Schism

Bill Gottschalk-Fielding, Chair of the Agenda Committee, moved that the remainder of the petitions be submitted to General Conference by the Secretary at the conclusion of Annual Conference. It was supported by a vote of 726 yes; 124, no. Conference Advance Specials Rev.

Recommendation from the Task Force on Peace and Justice in Palestine/Israel – Sovereign Debt of Countries Involved in Prolonged Military Operations Whereas “sovereign debt” is a term used to describe bonds that are issued by a nation’s government as a means of borrowing money from organizations or persons who purchase the bonds; and the money raised from the sale of such bonds can be used at the discretion of the government that issues the bonds; and Whereas holders (buyers) of government bonds are therefore on record as supporting, through their purchase, whatever activities the country that issues (sells) the bonds may choose to do; and Whereas the Human Rights Investment Guideline of Wespath Benefits and Investments (formerly named the General Board of Pension and Health Benefits), an administrative agency of The United Methodist Church, states: “Wespath also may exclude from investment the sovereign debt of any country demonstrating a prolonged and systematic pattern of human rights abuses;” and Whereas in addition, The United Methodist Church, through its general agencies and conferences, strives to be accountable to our Social Principles through screening against investment in military occupations; and Whereas The United Methodist Church’s Social Principles state: “ … we endorse the United Nations, its related bodies, the International Court of Justice and the International Criminal Court as the best instruments now in existence to achieve a world of justice and law,” (The United Methodist Social Principles, ¶165.D); and

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

Whereas three nations have held subject populations under prolonged military occupation: Morocco has occupied Western Sahara since 1976; Turkey has occupied Northern Cyprus since 1974; Israel has occupied the Palestinian territories since 1967, thus denying the subject populations their self-determination in violation of the system established by the Charter of the United Nations and International Law in general, and Whereas the above-named occupying powers have been named by United Nations Security Council resolutions and/or International Court of Justice rulings as having engaged in prolonged military occupations and are thereby violators of international law and are responsible for human rights abuses, generally including reduction of food assistance to refugees, failure to protect civilian persons, land confiscation, home demolition, and violence against civilians; and Whereas Amos 5:24 says, “But let justice roll down like waters, and righteousness like an ever-flowing stream,” and Psalm 103:6 says, “The Lord works righteousness and justice for all who are oppressed,” Therefore, be it resolved that the Upper New York Conference prayerfully calls upon the boards and agencies throughout the connection and its own investment managers to add to their human rights guidelines explicit language with regard to governmental debt so as to exclude those governments maintaining a prolonged military occupation that have been the subject of United Nations Security Council resolutions and/or International Court of Justice rulings, and to align their portfolios accordingly, avoiding the governmental debt of each such country until the time when each government ends their military occupation; and Therefore, be it further resolved that the churches in the Upper New York Conference who have investments prayerfully consider with their own investment managers excluding from their investment portfolios governmental debt from governments maintaining a prolonged military occupation that have been the subject of United Nations Security Council resolutions and/or International Court of Justice rulings until the time when each government ends their military occupation, and Therefore, be it further resolved that the Upper New York Conference submit this resolution to the General Conference 2020. Recommendation from the Social Holiness Team -Teen Sexual Identity and Suicide Risk Whereas each year, one in 15 high school students in the United States attempts suicide; and Whereas according to the U.S. Centers for Disease Control and Prevention, suicide is the third leading cause of death among young people. The World Health Organization estimates that suicide is the second leading cause of death among young people ages 15-29 globally; and Whereas a 2011 U.S. Department of Health and Human Services study found that teens dealing with issues of sexual identity are far more likely to attempt suicide than other youth. Females are twice as likely to attempt suicide while males are up to six times more likely to attempt taking their lives; and Whereas The United Methodist Church, in Social Principles ¶162J (2016), states: “Certain basic human rights and civil liberties are due all persons. We are committed to supporting those rights and liberties for all persons, regardless of sexual orientation.” Therefore, be it resolved, the Social Holiness Team of the Upper New York Conference and the United Methodist Women of the Upper New York Conference request that the Upper New York Conference empower the Social Holiness Team to:

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

• • • • • •

Publish, in laypeople’s terms, a summary of current U.S. and global research on teen suicide and mental health. Including but not limited to lesbian, gay, bisexual, transgender, and questioning (LGBTQ) youth who are at risk for suicide. Work with organizations currently doing research on these issues. Provide a directory of agencies in Upper New York working on issues of teen suicide. Provide a directory of resources for congregations and families that provides accurate information, recommendations for programs, and pastoral guidance. Consider recommendations for legislative actions within The United Methodist Church to help prevent teen suicide including, but not limited to, LGBTQ persons. Make recommendations for programs for youth through congregations, six districts, and the Conference that address teen suicide and mental health including, but not limited to, sexual identity and suicide risk.

UNYAC2019.1 – Action of nonconformity with the General Conference of the United Methodist Church Ruled out of order. UNYAC2019.2 - UNYAC Response to Actions of 2019 General Conference Whereas using appropriate, quality biblical scholarship, there is no biblical mandate to discriminate against LGBTQIA+ persons and relationships. Whereas the United Methodist Church is capable of great nuance in the matter of biblical interpretation as displayed in its treatment of issues such as divorce and the ordination of women, but reverts to simplistic literalism when it comes to the full inclusion of LGBTQIA+ persons in its life and ministry; and Whereas the United Methodist Church has singled out LGBTQIA+ persons for special punitive action while ignoring the “clear biblical teaching” on other matters such as pensions (Matthew 6:19-20); and Whereas much of the Traditional Plan had already been ruled unconstitutional before it was voted upon; and Whereas the first general rule that John Wesley gave the people called Methodists concerns “doing no harm”; and Whereas United Methodists promise “to resist evil, injustice, and oppression in whatever forms they present themselves”; and Whereas by passing the Traditional Plan, the denomination has done great, and perhaps irreparable harm to our LGBTQIA+ siblings, their families, and friends. Therefore, be it resolved, that the Upper New York Annual Conference (UNYAC) condemns the decision of the 2019 General Conference to pass the Traditional Plan and apologizes for the harm that it has caused LGBTQIA+ persons, their families, their friends, and the body of Christ. “We affirm that all persons are individuals of sacred worth, created in the image of God,” but we also assert and affirm that no human being is incompatible with Christian teaching. UNYAC2019.3 - A Call for Structural Change Whereas Enormous cultural and theological gaps remain in our global church; and

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

Whereas the Council of Bishops, The Commission on a Way Forward, and the 2019 General Conference were unable to find a satisfactory resolution to the impasse in The United Methodist Church around LGBTQ clergy and same-gender weddings in our churches; and Whereas the Traditional Plan passed at the 2019 General Conference serves as a rejection of compromise and a theologically diverse denomination; and Whereas only structural separation will allow all annual conferences and local churches to effectively Make Disciples of Jesus Christ for the Transformation of the World. Therefore, Be It Resolved that the Upper New York Conference notify the Council of Bishops that the stipulations of the Traditional Plan are not acceptable for our Conference; and Be It Further Resolved that the Upper New York Conference call on the 2020 General Conference to adopt a structural realignment of The United Methodist Church that creates an expression of Wesleyan Methodism that allows for both traditional and progressive understandings of LGBTQ Clergy and same-gender weddings to co-exist within the Church; and Be It Further Resolved that given the forthcoming structural change, we encourage Bishop Webb, the Board of Ordained Ministry, and other members of the Conference leadership team to, as an act of grace, impose an immediate moratorium on any punitive action related to LGBTQ clergy and same-gender weddings. UNYAC2019.4 - Create a Team to Consider Processes for Future Movement of Congregations Whereas the Incompatibility Clause (¶161f), the ban on performing same sex weddings (¶341.6), and prohibition on allowing “practicing” homosexuals to be ordained (¶304.3) have long been points of contention and debate among the members of The United Methodist Church, consuming a great deal of energy that could otherwise be expended in furthering our mission; and Whereas the creation and subsequent actions of the Wesleyan Covenant Association that identified a preparation to create a new denominational structure have strengthened conversations among many United Methodists, with various viewpoints in this debate, about some leaving to form an alternative denomination; Whereas the 2016 General Conference put all legislation on related issues aside, established the Commission on the Way Forward, to study these issues and potential resolutions of the debate, and called for the 2019 Special Session of General Conference to present and possibly address the findings of the Commission on the Way Forward; all with the goal of finding a Way Forward for our denomination that would finally bring a resolution to this debate in a way that would maintain and strengthen the unity of the Church; and Whereas the Way Forward Commission worked for three years in a model of cooperation, consensus building and Holy Conferencing to examine the issues and alternative “Ways Forward” that might attain the goal of ending this debate and allowing our energies to be spent in more productive ways; and at the conclusion of their study the Commission identified a Way Forward, which the majority of bishops agreed with; and Whereas the 2019 Special Session of General Conference rejected by a narrow margin the recommendations and results of the Holy Conferencing conducted by the Commission on the Way Forward, and the recommendation of the Council of Bishops; and Whereas the actions taken by the Special Session of General Conference, 2019, failed to create a true way forward and instead chose a path that has led to many United Methodists around the World, the United States 65

and Upper New York to feel that the General Conference has failed in finding a Way Forward that maintains and strengthens the unity of the Church ; and Whereas in response to that failure we have already seen the extensive pain, anger, and sense of abandonment to many members of The United Methodist Church; the loss of many members and the potential greater future losses as members of congregations and entire congregations consider their future; as well as significant actions of protest, dissent, and non-conformity; and Whereas it is now clear that The United Methodist Church, as it has existed, is in danger of losing many members and congregations on both sides of this debate; and Whereas the current procedures outlined in The Book of Discipline with regard to churches choosing to leave an annual conference (¶ 260 to change annual conferences) or the denomination (no clear procedures even identified in The Book of Discipline), were not designed to address such widespread movement/loss of congregations and are insufficient to address the needs which may arise if such large scale exits to an alternative denomination come to be; and Whereas the Special Session of General Conference 2019 attempted to address some specific areas of this need through Petitions 90016 and 90017 (Pension Responsibilities and CRSP Amendment) and Petition 90066 (disaffiliation, but failed – depends on what JC determined about Constitutionality); and Whereas the reality is that many other issues may arise and need to be addressed which have not already been considered; and Whereas in the creation of the Upper New York Conference from its four predecessor conferences many similar issues were identified, and despite pre-planning, experience showed that there were many additional issues that needed to be addressed; and Whereas while it is our fervent hope that the unity of The United Methodist Church, which we all love, can be preserved and these actions not be needed, we must recognize the potential that such unity will not be preserved, that barriers to unity may be put in place leading to eventual separation and that it is prudent to be able to address the issues if the need arises. Therefore, be it resolved that: The Upper New York Conference will create a team to examine in detail the issues involved in any large-scale separation movement of churches and clergy to an alternate Methodist denomination, which may be developed, and which are not already addressed by The Book of Discipline. This team will examine, among other issues that may be relevant: ●

How the trust clause and other property related sections of The Book of Discipline (¶2501-2552) will be addressed so that all congregations are treated equally and equitably;

●

Developing a process by which a congregation can identify to the Conference it wishes to transfer to another denomination and provide a timetable for the process of transfer. This process and timetable should include steps that can be related to decisions to be made in the future (such as the establishment of an alternative denomination); Examine issues of jointly held resources and how an equitable distribution of those resources may be made should there be a denominational split (resources such as camping and retreat ministries which

●

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

are not associated with individual congregations); or how such resources may continue to be available equitably to both expressions of Methodism if such joint associations are possible. ●

Identify and develop a process by which ordination and other forms of licensing, certification, and evidence of completion of requirements for various forms of ministry can be transferred without loss of such recognitions.

●

Examine the important issues of pensions, pension liabilities, and other such issues to find equitable solutions that do not create harm to individual churches or to the Conference; this may include transferring such responsibilities and liabilities to whatever “new thing” may be created.

●

Identify and examine other issues which may arise and be relevant in such a denominational split of the congregations of Upper New York so that treatment is equitable, and harm is minimized as we seek how to continue to make disciples for Christ in our multiple and varied contexts.

This team will be comprised of: Two individuals from each district, one clergy, and one layperson to be chosen by the district leadership teams in consultation with district superintendents; each of these persons will have voice and vote on all issues; Additionally, the team will include Conference staff with experience and knowledge in their specific fields to assist the team and to provide information. These individuals will have voice, but only vote on questions relating to their areas of expertise. These team members will include: • • • • •

Two individuals from the Conference Leadership Team, Two members of the Conference Board of Trustees; Aa representative from the Conference Treasurers office A representative from the Conference Human Resources/Benefits office A representative from the Conference office of Camps and Retreats

The team will also include one district superintendent as a representative of the cabinet who will serve with voice but no vote. Finally, names of individuals with a willingness to serve and expertise in legal, financial, and other matters deemed important by the initial team should be submitted to this team to create a pool of individuals from which they can select to assist the team as such skills are needed. The need for specific skills may expand as the team conducts their work and this expansion will be allowed and addressed as needed as with Conference staff, these individuals are included to provide information and expertise and will serve with voice, but only have vote on issues for which they provide important information. The team should be driven by those attending and serving the individual congregations who will be most affected and the most intimate with their individual needs. Despite this, all Conference personnel should be available for consultation as the team deems needed. Recommendations of this team should be given a high level of importance and their detailed final report and recommendation should be reported at the next meeting of Annual Conference for approval by the full body. Finally, it is understood that should a succeeding General Conference address any of these concerns and create new sections of The Book of Discipline that will address such needs as this team may address, those procedures would supersede the work of this team. 67

UNYAC2019.5 - Discerning Gifts and Graces for Ministry Without Partiality Whereas the Apostle Paul proclaims, “To each is given the manifestation of the Spirit for the common good” (1 Corinthians 12:7); and Whereas James, the servant of God and of the Lord Jesus Christ, prophesies “You do well if you really fulfill the royal law according to the scripture, ‘You shall love your neighbor as yourself.’ But if you show partiality, you commit sin and are convicted by the law as transgressors” (James 2:8-9); and Whereas as a diverse people of God who bring special gifts and evidence of God’s grace to the unity of the church and to society, we are called to be faithful to the example of Jesus’ ministry, (¶140 “Called to Inclusiveness”); and Whereas inclusiveness means openness, acceptance, and support that enables all persons to participate in the life of the Church … therefore inclusiveness denies every semblance of discrimination (¶140 “Called to Inclusiveness”); and Whereas we affirm that all persons are individuals of sacred worth created in the image of God, (¶161G Human Sexuality); and Whereas all persons regardless of … sexual orientation are entitled to have their human and civil rights ensured (¶161G Human Sexuality); and Whereas we as United Methodists are committed to supporting those rights and liberties for all persons, regardless of sexual orientation (¶162J Equal Rights Regardless of Sexual Orientation); Therefore, be it resolved that the Upper New York Board of Ordained Ministry and Upper New York District Committees of Ordained Ministry examine candidates for licensed or ordained ministry, and licensed local pastors for continuance as a local pastor with the intent of discerning their call to, and gifts and graces for ministry without pursuing information with regard to sexual orientation or gender identity. UNY2019.6 – UNYUMC AU Scholarship named for Rev. Ann Stanton Blair Whereas there is an opportunity to honor additional persons who have contributed to growth and justice for students of Africa; and Whereas the Rev. Ann Blair served several congregations in Wyoming and Upper New York Conferences, sharing her dedication to both local and global ministries; and Whereas Rev. Blair’s training, personal examples of generosity, and creating ways of sharing and solicitation led her to become a founding member of the Upper New York Conference Africa University Scholarship Task Force as a natural place to serve; and Whereas her commitment to Africa University is a continuation of her prior involvement with missions in Zimbabwe and a life-long appreciation for the benefits of excellent education and providing the resources for it. Therefore, be it resolved that one scholarship be named the Rev. Ann Stanton Blair Scholarship to honor her lifelong commitment to the UMC in ministry and mission. UNYAC2019.7 – UNYUMC African University Named Scholarship – Virga Phoenix 68

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

Whereas there is an opportunity to honor additional persons who have contributed to growth and justice for students of Africa; and, Whereas Virgia Phoenix has for 70 plus years provided superb leadership within the United Methodist Church and in interfaith settings in Boston, Brooklyn, and the capital district of New York and within Troy and Upper New York Conferences; and Whereas the Albany District designated a named scholarship in Virgia’s name on Feb. 8, 2015; and Whereas in an article in the Upper New York United Methodist Church (UNYUMC) Advocate lifting up this named scholarship, Virgia is quoted as saying: “Africa and education being so much part of my DNA, it is my hope that such a scholarship will be a long ‘Usahwira’ (Shona for ‘beautiful friendship’) now and into the future” with Africa University; and Whereas in recognition of her life-long ministry within The United Methodist Church, Virgia was the 2014 recipient of the UNYUMC Harry Denman Evangelism Award. Therefore, be it resolved that one scholarship be named the Virgia Phoenix Scholarship. UNYAC2019.8 – Caring for LGBTQAI+ Ministry Candidates Whereas God who sees the human heart often pours out the gift of vocation in ways that astound human expectation, Whereas God has called and is calling persons from the LGBTQAI+ community into licensed and ordained ministry in the United Methodist Church, Whereas recent decisions of the 2019 General Conference have presented unique discouragements and barriers to LGBTQAI+ candidates, Whereas we recognize the existence of the Queer Clergy Caucus of The United Methodist Church and celebrate the capacity of its members to offer unique emotional and spiritual support, mentoring, and affirmation to those encountering the stress of navigating a calling from God while struggling under our church’s current human sexuality doctrine, Therefore, let it be resolved that the Board of Ordained Ministry and all district committees on ministry be provided with and encouraged to offer contact information of a Queer Clergy Caucus support person to all candidates. Motion to Refer UNYAC2019.9 – Assisting with the Interpretation of Speeches by Ecumenical Interfaith Leaders Be it resolved that that UNYAC2019.9 be referred to the Conference Committee on Sessions and Conference Commission on religion and Race for clarity and action. UNYAC2019.10 – Let’s Talk about Sex It was not supported. UNYAC2019.11 – A Call for Attention to the Worth of All Immigrants Whereas we are people of God, who commands that we love our neighbors as ourselves, and one of our neighbors who cooked for the local food pantry for 10 years was taken from cooking to prison because his citizenship has not been established – even though he has worked for 10 years to become a citizen; and

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

Whereas we of The United Methodist Church believe in a God of compassion, and we find need for a more formal pronouncement to the United States government that just treatment of all human beings is part of our nation’s character; and Whereas treatment by ICE and government immigration has been cruel, unjust, and inhumane, according to standards given in scripture and our Book of Discipline, separating children from parents and even causing death; and Whereas visible, well-advertised, unified denouncement of such treatment by the Council of Bishops, or the National United Methodist Church has not been made known nor promoted in a formal declaration. Therefore, be it resolved that the Upper New York Conference send a Declaration of Hope to the Council of Bishops that they will send a formal demand, that the U.S. Government promote compassionate and just treatment to all immigrants, no matter their status as illegal or legal; and Therefore, be it resolved that being aware of this inhumane treatment and no visible signs of success after a decade, the government be made accountable for such anti-United States treatment and reprimanded, even asked to apologize; and Therefore, be it further resolved that the statement of the Council of Bishops strongly support legislation as soon as possible to both increase the ability to become citizens and protect those already seeking citizenship from deportation. UNYAC2019.12 & 13 – Standards for Conference Leadership by Bishop’s Appointment and Nominations Both were withdrawn. UNYAC2019.14 - Clergy Authority to Perform Weddings It was ruled out of order. GC2020.1 - A Way Forward: Pursuing a Considered and Cooperative Schism Whereas the example of scripture, as modelled by Paul and Barnabas, is to undertake separate ministries when disagreements threaten our mission (Acts 15:36-41); and Whereas the model of the early church was Christian unity not rooted in polity and property-ownership, but in shared love for Christ and commitment to God’s ongoing redemptive work in the world; and Whereas the history of the Methodist tradition demonstrates, through the birth of such bodies as the AME, AME Zion, Wesleyan, Free Methodist, and Nazarene churches, that the formation of new ecclesiastic structures within the holy Catholic Church can expand her sacred work; and Whereas the exhortation of John Wesley to “do no harm” testifies against the current condition of The United Methodist Church, wherein persons across the spectrum of theology and practice are vilified, and spoken about rather than with, by those who disagree with them; and Whereas the witness of The United Methodist Church, herself, is harmed by our disunity and by the harm we continue to cause one another; and Whereas the further harm inflicted by a unilateral schism can be observed in the experiences of bodies such as the Episcopal Church and the Presbyterian Church (USA); and 70

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

Whereas the honest evaluation of our current structures and finances reveals that The United Methodist Church could not continue in its current form after suffering decreases in membership and being consistent with the experiences of other bodies undergoing unilateral schism. Therefore, be it resolved that the General Conference request the Council of Bishops establish a new Commission on a Way Forward, comprised of both clergy and laity from a representatively diverse crosssection of theological and geographic contexts, tasked with drafting a proposal for the formation of two, or more, independent Methodist denominations; and Therefore, be it further resolved that this new Commission on a Way Forward be charged with presenting an actionable plan for amicable schism to General Conference 2024 for consideration. GC2020.2 - Division on Ministries with Young People Reform A Be it resolved that the following ¶NEW be added to The Book of Discipline after ¶1205: ¶NEW. Division members who are young people serving on General Boards and agencies as members at large: A youth or young adult member of the division may, should they so desire at the onset of division membership, serve on any General Church leadership body of their choosing, except for those whose members are elected by the General Conference, as an at large member with voice and vote. A person serving in this capacity shall not be counted for that board or agency’s representation purposes. At least 50 percent of the cost for attending meetings and other functions related to membership within that body shall be paid for by the receiving board or agency with Young People’s Ministry paying the remaining balance. This provision shall not apply to any member of the division who is elected to the General Board of Discipleship in accordance with ¶1205. GC2020.3 - Division on Ministries with Young People Reform B Be it resolved that ¶1207 in The Book of Discipline be amended by adding a new §3: ¶1207. Membership - 3. Young people serving as members of General Boards and agencies – Any youth or young adult who is serving on a General Board or agency shall be invited to attend division meetings and functions in order to promote camaraderie and fellowship amongst young leaders throughout the connection. These persons shall have voice but no vote. At least 50 percent of the cost for attending these meetings and other division functions shall be paid for by the sending board or agency with Young People’s Ministry paying the remaining balance. GC2020.4 - Division on Ministries with Young People Reform C Be it resolved that ¶1206 in The Book of Discipline be amended as follows: ¶1206. Structure – The Division on Ministries with Young People shall be organized around three basic units: United Methodist youth, United Methodist young adults, and United Methodist workers with young people. Executive leadership of the division shall be elected by the division halfway through the quadrennium, and these elected leaders shall serve in that capacity until halfway through the next quadrennium. Executive leadership shall consist of: 1. Four co-chairs to be elected by the division, comprised of: a. One youth from the U.S., b. One young adult from the U.S., c. One youth from the central conferences, and 71

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II IV. Daily Proceedings

d. One young adult from the central conferences 2. One secretary to be elected by the division 3. The chair(s) of each of the three basic units to be elected by the respective basic units 4. The chair(s) of any other committee or structure deemed necessary by the division to be elected by the respective committee or structure. GC2020.5 - Reducing Resources in Construction Whereas we humans are tasked with governance over the living things of creation (Gen 1:28); and Whereas we are made in the image of God (Gen 1:26–27) and therefore should exercise that governance not exploitatively or for our own gain, but rather with the same love and care God has for all creation and the knowledge that an integral part of the God’s salvation is that all “may have life, and have it abundantly” (Jn 10:10); and Whereas our Social Principles (Discipline ¶160) affirm that “All creation is the Lord’s, and we are responsible for the ways in which we use and abuse it. Water, air, soil, minerals, energy, resources, plants, animal life, and space are to be valued and conserved because they are God’s creation and not solely because they are useful to human beings”; and Whereas The Book of Resolutions ¶1035 states that “We understand climate justice not simply as an environmental or economic concern but rather as a deep ethical and spiritual concern that The Church must address so that abundant life is ensured for our children and future generations” and calls “all United Methodist institutions, organizations, and local churches to incorporate climate stewardship … into the design of facilities”. Therefore, be it resolved that the Upper New York Conference petitions the 2020 General Conference to resolve the following: •

That all United Methodist institutions, organizations, and local churches shall prefer the modification of existing structures over demolition and replacement with new construction wherever the choice is available

•

That the same shall prioritize measures for decreasing environmental footprint and reliance on nonrenewable energy resources whenever additions or modifications are made to existing structures

•

That the same shall support the establishment of financial incentives both within and outside the Church for modification of existing structures rather than new construction

Submission of Remaining Petitions by Secretary Authorize the Conference secretary to submit the remaining petitions to General Conference at the conclusion of this Annual Conference session. 2019-2020 Upper New York Conference Advance Specials Whereas it is the responsibility of the Conference to approve ministries as Conference Advance Specials, which gives these ministries permission to request support from churches in the Conference, Therefore, be it resolved that the following list of 2019-2020 Conference Advance Specials be approved: • Anti-Poverty Initiative (University UMC: Syracuse) Code #904 • Brown Memorial UMC: Syracuse Code #910 • Buffalo/Niagara Network of Religious Communities Code #903 72

Further that in matters of importance, requiring attention between sessions of the Upper New York Annual Conference, a mail ballot be authorized, where the Bishop and a majority of the district superintendents deem that process to be appropriate.

Grete H. Dodson Grete H. Dodson, 97, passed away on April 25, 2018, at the New York State Veterans Home in Oxford. Grete was born in 1921 in Nordenham, Germany, daughter of Ship Captain Heinrich Paradies and Margarete Eisenhauer Paradies. Following graduation from high school, Grete attended the English Interpreter Institute in Leipzig, Germany. Grete loved languages, especially the English language, and had longed to visit England. Unfortunately, this dream was interrupted by WW II. After the war, Grete worked for the US Army unit stationed in her hometown of Nordenham as a secretary and interpreter, and as church organist for services at the base led by Army Chaplain Major Lavere Dodson. Years later, in 1954, Chaplain Dodson, now a widower stationed at Fort Dix, NJ, reached out to Grete, who was working in the German Embassy in Copenhagen, Denmark. He was again to be stationed in Stuttgart, Germany. Would she meet with him? Grete and Lavere were reacquainted and married in Stuttgart in 1955. Grete eventually moved with her husband and son Bill to the United States and became a U.S. citizen in 1960. The family lived in Almonesson, N.J., and then Otego, N.Y., where Lavere served as Methodist Minister in both communities. Along with supporting her husband’s career and raising two young children, Grete attended Hartwick College, receiving her BA in French and German in 1965. Her first teaching position was in Morris, N.Y. After Lavere’s retirement from the Methodist Church in 1968, the family moved to the Binghamton area, settling in Port Dickinson. Grete taught French, German, and Spanish from 1969 until 1984 at Union Endicott (UE) High School and received her MS in Teaching (French) from Binghamton University. During her tenure at UE, Grete inspired many of her students to continue language study in college. She loved literature and poetry and received special joy from reading and re-reading the novels of Jane Austen. In addition to her facility with languages, Grete loved music and was an excellent pianist. At the age of 50, she bought a violin in an antique store, started taking lessons, and became a founding member of the Binghamton Community Orchestra, playing violin in the group for 20 years. Her favorite composers were Beethoven, Bach, Brahms, and Mendelssohn, and her great delight was seeing orchestras perform, especially the Binghamton Philharmonic. Grete loved learning and was a past member of the Binghamton University Lyceum, the Binghamton Choral Society, the Binghamton Harmony Club, and she was a current member of the Western Broome – Eastern Tioga Retired Teachers Association. 217

Another of Grete’s great joys was traveling. She enjoyed camping, the Thousand Islands being a favorite spot, and she loved traveling across the United States and visiting relatives with her husband. Grete often returned to visit her hometown in Germany, but also took trips to Greece, England, and Spain. Her last overseas trip was to Italy at the age of 88. A special local place for Grete was the Chenango Valley State Park, where she was known to generations of lifeguards. Nothing gave her more joy than swimming there on a summer afternoon. She taught her grandchildren to swim and instilled in her family a love of swimming that continues to this day. Grete is survived by her loving family, daughter Margaret Dodson Buhl and son-in-law Paul Buhl of Greene, N.Y.; grandchildren Cecilia Buhl Chivers and husband James Chivers of Baltimore, Md.; Elizabeth Buhl of Boston; Ethan Buhl and girlfriend Caroline Dormer of Binghamton. Also surviving is Grete’s sister Charlotte Hein of Bremen, Germany, and her daughter-in-law, Nancy Hidden Dodson of Westport, Wash. She was Aunt Grete to many loved nieces and nephews and to many step-grandchildren from all over the United States. Grete is survived as well by dear friends in the Binghamton area who loved to meet and speak German together. These gatherings meant much to Grete and were some of her happiest moments in her retired years. In addition to her parents, she was predeceased by her beloved son William in 1977, and by her loving husband of 42 years, the Rev. Lavere Dodson, in 1998. Grete was also predeceased by her step-children, Edward (Eleanor) Dodson and Alma Dodson (Earl) Cashmore; brother-in-law Virgil (Virginia) Dodson; and sister-in-law Reva Dodson (Ward) Stratton Grete’s family would like to thank all the kind and caring workers at the New York State Oxford Veterans Home, who so lovingly cared for her the last two years of her life. Her family would also like to acknowledge all the caregivers who unfailingly provide help to our loved ones in care facilities. The work you do providing solace to those in need is the most important work in our society. Bless you all. A celebration of Grete’s Life was held at the Ogden Hillcrest Methodist Church, on May 5, 2018. Interment was in the East Newark Cemetery on Dodson Hill Road, Newark Valley. Grete can be remembered by learning a new language, playing an instrument, attending a local music performance, visiting a different country, or swimming at a local park. Grete loved her adopted country and was exceedingly grateful for all the opportunities that were afforded her in the United States. Her passion for learning, her energy, and her love of life is a gift to her family and all who knew her. Submitted by Margaret Dodson Buhl, daughter

Barbara Jean Linza Barbara J. Cowherd Linza, 81, of Jamestown, died on Dec. 15, 2018, in UPMC Hamot, Erie, Pa. She was born Feb. 27, 1937 in Brantford, Ontario, to Crawford and Olive Cowherd. Her older brother Jack was born in 1933 ahead of her and survives her today with three children. Her memories of her childhood were fond including good times with cousins and extended family. After a fun stint in boarding school as a young lady, Barbara went on to Roberts Wesleyan College in North Chili, a suburb of Rochester, N.Y. She met her husband, Ray, a young American from a working family, after a year at school where she was majoring in business administration and Ray was studying history with an eye on seminary. They were married on August 24, 1957, in Niagara Falls, Ontario, and began a family soon after. Ray finished undergraduate school with lots of cool stories and a few friends for life and went on to Asbury Seminary in Kentucky to be a Methodist minister. Ray and Barb had five children, Susie, Bob, Julie, John, and Kim from 1958 through 1969, followed by seven grandchildren and two great-grandchildren. A busy and crazy household, as any five children bring, was the norm for many years. Barb was instrumental in ensuring that music filled our lives and our home. She was a model wife and exemplary mother, always putting others first. Barb sacrificed on many fronts, as most moms do, and her unconditional love was always a hallmark of her character. As kids grew up, they brought much joy and occasional sadness to their parents. Barb and Ray continued to parent the best they knew how. They were in no way perfect, but in every way unwavering in their united intent on the best for their children. Barb was kind to more than just her family. She never met a “stranger.” She eagerly sought out new friends and simply relished talking to people she never met and would never see again, just to share some sunlight from her soul. She loved to share her joy about family, friends, and whatever was going on in her life. As the family dispersed and Ray’s career landed them in unexpected final destinations, Barb continued to support him and his ministry without hesitation. She was his silent rock and bastion of stability through the good and the bad. Barb was an exceptional human being. In recent years, she struggled with great health challenges and cheerfully rose to the occasion with great faith and courage. We’re grateful for everything that Barbara was as a mom, a wife, grandmother, a great-grandmother, and a friend to anyone within earshot. We’re honored that she was the center of the life of our family and grateful to have been part of her journey. Barbara died in the hands of her savior and in the arms of her family. We’ll miss her dearly and will carry on her legacy of selflessness in each of our lives. Barbara and Mom … thanks and we’ll see you again soon. A funeral service was held at the Jamestown Church of the Nazarene. Dr. Mark Hanson, pastor, officiated. Burial will be held at the convenience of the family.

Richard (Dick) L. Sears Richard L. Sears, a pastor in the Methodist Church, died with his boots on as he made the journey from life to LIFE. From his origins in Lake Placid, N.Y., he learned a love of his Lord, music, and the great out of doors. In addition to loving his wife Janice and daughters, Jennifer and Amy and his Lord, it was said that he had five great loves: barbershop harmony, hunting, fishing, eating, and sleeping, though not necessarily in that order. His wide variety of interests is an indication of his love of life, and a philosophy that it should be lived to the fullest in the time given to him by his Lord. His outlook was always optimistic and positive as each day was viewed as a fresh beginning of life, with potential for exciting experiences and new opportunities. He had a wild and unique sense of humor which served to see him through both the good times and the bad, and which prevented him from “thinking of himself more highly than he ought.” A celebration of Dick’s life was held on January 6, 2019, at Foothills United Methodist Church in Gloversville, N.Y. Submitted by wife Janice Sears and daughters Jennifer DeYoung and Amy Jones

Billie Jean Townsend Billie Jean was born Aug. 6, 1930, in Edwardsville Ill. She was the sister of Kay Greene, of Maryville, Ill., and the late Betty Phillips. Her parents were the late Denver B. and Eva Goodwin of Granite City, Ill. Billie Jean was her husband Jim’s partner in Christian ministry for more than 50 years. She was the real power behind the throne. During Jim’s 26 years of service as a United States Air Force chaplain, Billie Jean raised her four children alone when Jim served tours of duty in Korea and Vietnam. She also was a master packer-and-mover, having relocated to nine states and Europe. No matter where she was planted, she bloomed. She considered Jim’s assignment as chief chaplain at the United States Air Force Academy her happiest years as a military spouse. After Jim retired as a highly-decorated colonel from the USAF in 1982 and was appointed to the United Methodist Board of Higher Education and Ministry in Nashville, she continued traveling with him to every continent except Antarctica for another 16 years. Billie Jean possessed extraordinary intelligence and incredible gifts: a talented artist who sketched in chalks and pencil; and a master seamstress who transformed bolts of fabric, spools of colorful thread, buttons, and 235

2019 Upper New York Conference Journal Vol. II VII. Memoirs

zippers, into awe-inspiring elegant creations. She collected artwork, gracing her home with paintings, sculptures, and works in many media. She loved music, especially classical music and choirs, and her soprano voice was clear as a bell until the end of her life. She knew the scores of many Broadway musicals, yet had favorite musicians in many genres. Most important to her were the songs of cardinals and other birds who visited her backyard feeders, the concerti of chirps and peeps that thrilled her soul. She also heard in her lifetime whales in the Atlantic Ocean, the howls of wild animals in Africa and Asia, and the yips and meows of family dogs and cats. (Not to mention caring for her children's many turtles, lizards, mice, and five aquariums)! Billie Jean was a masterly chef who prepared thousands of mouth-watering meals that nourished her family, but also countless friends, church members, and military, religious, and political dignitaries from around the world. Herself an adventurous diner, she sampled cuisines from all types of cultures, and duplicated some of those recipes in her kitchen. Most of all, she loved Southern cooking, the supreme comfort food to her tastes. She could converse about everything under the sun. She never stopped reading books, and read from three to five hours daily, novels and biographies. She followed politics, and watched television news programs daily, and read numerous newspapers and magazines. She was a master of Sudoku and word jumble puzzles; and, watched her “stories,” British comedies and dramas broadcast weekends on NPT. Billie Jean also worked in the insurance and real estate industries and was one of the first key punch operators in the early years of computers, who also taught key punching at a business school. To the final days before her sudden death, Billie Jean’s mind was clear and her faith was strong, that when she learned she would not survive the cancer that took her life, she faced it immediately and accepted it. Even as her body shut down, and she gradually lost the ability to speak, she knew she was loved, and she loved her family and friends back until her last breath. She survived cancer three times and made a new life for herself after Jim’s death, because of her fierce and undying love for him and his legacy, and for her four children. She was an active member of Bethlehem United Methodist Church in Franklin, where her banners and choir robe still hang. But her love was simply for the family of humankind, for gifting everyone she met with kindness, compassion, and generosity. She lived a life of self-sacrifice, of servanthood. Love does not consist in gazing at each other but looking outward together in the same direction. Billie Jean and Jim were one of the greatest love stories in their more than 50 years together. They are now looking outward again in the same direction. Preceded in death by her husband, The Rev. Dr. James Everett Townsend. Survived by three sons: James Kenneth, of Brentwood, Tenn.; David Thayne (Judy), of Aurora, Ill.; Jay Everett (Mary), of Annandale, Va.; and one daughter: Twila Jean Zirakzadeh (Ardy), of Louisville, Colo.; plus, seven grandchildren (David Craig, Rachel, Alice, Sabrina, Donovan, Joel, Caitlin, and Ellie), and four great-grandchildren. A memorial service was conducted by her son, the Rev. Kenneth Townsend, and the Rev. David Bradley on Dec. 8, at Bethlehem United Methodist Church in Franklin. Burial was in 2019 at Arlington National Cemetery, Washington, D.C.
