Dr. Filimão M. Chambo was elected to the office of general superintendent in the Church of the Nazarene in June 2017 by its 29th General Assembly, held in Indianapolis, Indiana, USA. He was director of the Africa Region at the time of his election, a post he had held since 2009. As regional director, Dr. Chambo was responsible for overseeing the church planting and development efforts of the Church of the Nazarene across the continent of Africa.

Born in Mozambique, Filimão grew up in a pastor’s home. Both his father and mother served in full-

time ministry for the Church of the Nazarene. At the age of 17, when God called him to full-time ministry, his answer was yes.

Chambo earned a Diploma in Theology at Seminário Nazareno em Mozambique (SNM) in 1993 and a Bachelor of Theology (ThB) at Nazarene Theological College (NTC) in 1997. He was ordained by Dr. Jim Diehl as an elder in the Church of the Nazarene in January 2000 on the Gauteng District, South Africa; and later that year attained his Masters of Arts (MA) in Biblical Studies from the University of Johannesburg. His Doctor of Literature and Philosophy in Biblical Studies (PhD) was also earned at the University of Johannesburg and was completed in 2009.

Before serving in the regional office, Chambo’s ministry experience included pastoral positions and Christian higher education. He served as pastor in South Africa for the Mphagane and Eldorado Park Churches of the Nazarene and in Mozambique at Igreja do Nazareno da Matola Cidade. He was an educator at NTC, South Africa, and at Seminário Nazareno em Mozambique where he later became president. In 2005 Dr. Chambo was named education coordinator for the Africa Region, where he served until his appointment as regional director in 2009.

Filimão is married to Samantha, who is also an ordained elder, and they have two children, a daughter, Tsakani Gabriella, and a son, Emanuel.

North Arkansas District– District Superintendent’s Report 2019-2020

General Superintendent, Dr. Filimão Chambo, and the North Arkansas District Advisory Committee:

Dear friends, I am privileged to present my second report as district superintendent of the North Arkansas District Church of the Nazarene. This has been a most fascinating and unusual church year, the first (as far as I know) we were unable to meet physically for a district assembly, due to the Coronavirus pandemic. The Board of General Superintendents has empowered the District Advisory Committee to act on behalf of the assembly this year. It is my privilege to share some of the exciting things God has done through the ministries of the North Arkansas District Church of the Nazarene this past year—with the hopes we will be able to meet physically next year and properly celebrate what God has been doing across our district.

First, I want to thank God for the pastors and laity of our district. These heroes have modeled flexibility and innovation over the past ninety days in ways that reveal the creativity of our amazing God. Worship services have continued through the entire Coronavirus shutdown in our country through online services on website, Facebook, and YouTube, parking lot/drive-in services with FM transmitters; discipleship ministries and Bible studies, and other small group meetings have continued through the use of Zoom, Teams, and other online platforms. Pastoral care has actually ramped up through all this as pastors and congregants have become very creative in the ways they are staying connected with one another. As our churches resume worship gatherings in our buildings across the district, I am encouraged to know these innovations will not go away. Our pastors and church leaders are planning to continue these avenues for doing ministry in this new era we are entering into. Going back is not an option, and our pastors and congregations are looking forward. We know God will be in the future, with or without us, so we commit to being where God is! Our pastors and churches are learning new things every single week these days. I rejoice in this, since we should never become comfortable or contented. My prayer is for the Holy Spirit to continue to stretch us and to challenge us, so we can creatively embrace new ways to share the Good News of Jesus beyond our buildings, programs, and traditional means of ministry.

I have also been encouraged how our pastors have embraced the spirit and statements of equality and reconciliation shared by our Board of General Superintendents over the past few weeks of racial and societal tension throughout

10

our country. In response to the BGS, our pastors called our congregations to prayer and fasting for healing, restoration, and justice for our country and world. Nazarenes have always been a peaceful community seeking to bring people together in unity—under the banner of “Jesus is Lord.” Only Jesus can heal our hurts and ultimately make right our wrongs, but He longs to use the Church to be his ambassadors of reconciliation in the world. May we always stand with those who suffer and feel marginalized, welcome all people into our fellowship, and offer the Hope found only in Jesus Christ—just as the earliest Nazarenes did over a hundred years ago. While our culture and politics seeks to separate us and turn us all into enemies of one another, telling us they have the answer to all that ills us; as in all things, we must remember Jesus is the definitive answer for what divides us, angers us, and drives us into our camps. The earliest Christians didn’t use vitriol, hatred, or violence to accomplish their goals. They spent far more time in prayer than politics, far more time on their feet serving their neighbors, no time on Facebook or Twitter, and lived out the values of the Kingdom of God through their words, thoughts, and deeds. Reconciliation wasn’t something they had to be reminded to do—just because of a crisis from time to time. Reconciliation was the hallmark of who they were. They woke up every day believing in the power of the Holy Spirit to bring people together, to heal hurting people, and to break down the economic, racial, cultural, and gender barriers that separate us. They truly did believe, “There is neither Jew or Greek, slave nor free, male nor female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus.” And when we find our oneness in Jesus, we become, “heirs according to the promise” Galatians 3:28-29 (NIV). In Christ, the barriers of class, race, and gender fall before a unity that is so much stronger, greater, and more powerful than the sin that divides us. As Pentecost, which just passed, proves to us, the early Christians demonstrated, by their prayers and their actions, that in Jesus we find common ground, understanding, respectful dialogue, and unity. May our pastors always remember that Jesus is the Hope of the world, and unapologetically and boldly proclaim the Good News of justification by faith/grace alone, and the optimistic grace of entire sanctification through their pulpits, online platforms, social media posts, and through their congregation’s programming and service to their neighbors.

The last few months, which have revealed the creative nature of the Church, have proven to me that God wants to help us, that God is helping us, and that we are listening, learning, and obeying. But pastors, we have more work to do. So, let’s not rest, but lead our people with grace and truth as we move toward these challenges and not retreat to our buildings and pretend everything is okay. Again, if we want to be where Jesus is, then we will lead our congregations out into a world of need and hurt. It is there we will find Jesus, and become partners with Him in the work of redemption, healing, and reconciliation. God bless our pastors and people!

11

Second, I want to thank God for the faithfulness of our churches in their giving to others. In spite of the financial uncertainty that gripped the conclusion of this fiscal year, 37 of our churches reached all their giving goals for others, while only one church gave nothing to others. Our churches paid more than 100% of our district’s World Evangelism Fund allocation ($404,432), more than 100% of our district Pensions and Benefits allocation ($161,595), and almost all of our Southern Nazarene University allocation ($157,107). I am hoping that by the end of this meeting today, we will make a decision to fully fund our SNU allocation, since the C-19 event has dramatically impacted our regional university. They need our support more now than ever! [Note: during our proceedings, the DAC approved the full payment of our SNU budget, which was $3,778.72, bringing us to 100%]

Third, I am celebrating that our district will report an increase in membership (+129 for a total of 6,758 members), SDMI average attendance (+133 for a total of 4,536), and morning worship average attendance (+132 for a total of 4,487) for this fiscal year, with only a slight decrease in total raised (-$125,332 for a total raised of $7,628,531). While we showed a decrease in new Nazarenes (total: 272) and baptisms (total: 196) this year, I am hopeful much of this is due to our churches not being able to physically meet the last month and a half of our fiscal year, an important time in the year when many pastors offer membership and baptism classes. The only disheartening statistic this year was 24 of our churches did not report a single baptism, and 30 of our churches did not welcome a single person to membership in the Church of the Nazarene. This must not continue. North Arkansas Nazarenes, our churches exist primarily to introduce people to a saving and sanctifying relationship with Jesus, and to bring them into full partnership with the Body of Christ. Let us pray, fast, invite, engage, and make new friends for the sake of Jesus and the glory of God. May God bless our churches with many converts who will need to be baptized, and new friends who will want to know more about the church and become full partners through membership in the local church!

I am celebrating the discipleship ministries of our district’s churches this past year. Through Sunday schools, Bible studies, small groups, and other discipleship ministries, our churches are touching the lives of babies, children, teenagers, and adults. Congratulations to the following fourteen churches for showing 5% or more growth in their discipleship ministries this year: Bentonville Community, CrossRoads Cowboy, Fayetteville First, Hickory Plains, Jacksonville, Rogers First, Rogers Primera, Searcy, Siloam Springs, True Grace Gospel, Cabot Russell Chapel, Fort Smith River Valley, Hiwasse, and Pleasant Hill. And special kudos to three churches who showed a 50% or more increase in either their SDMI attendance or in their active discipleship

12

enrollment: Altus and lay pastor, Steve Travis; Jonesboro First and pastor, Sarah Scott; and Van Buren and Pastor BJ Keeter. Keep it up!

The General Superintendents’ Growth Award is not easy to attain. A local church needs to pay all their allocations in full, participate through significant financial and/or people investment in church planting, and show an increase of ten percent in worship attendance from the previous year. Congratulations are in order, once again, to Pastor Ron Riddle and the good people of CrossRoads Cowboy Church—meeting in three locations: El Paso, Pleasant Plains, and Natural Dam/Fort Smith. Their efforts resulted this year in the launching of a new campus at Natural Dam, 157 new Nazarenes, 110 baptisms, and 129 people receiving Christ. I look forward to worshiping with the congregation and presenting this hard-earned award again this year! Congratulations, Pastor Ron and Wanda Riddle, and the staff and congregation at CrossRoads. May God bless you richly over the next year in the same ways He has chosen to honor your faithfulness in the past!

While I love gathering for district assembly each year to share what God has done, and to look ahead together, and I am sad this isn’t happening this year, I am most disappointed we were not given the opportunity to introduce four new congregations to our district family this year. It will have to wait until next assembly, but for now let me share the good news with you:

In September 2019, we launched CrossRoads Cowboy Church—Fort Smith, with Pastor Tommy and Stephanie Dennis. This Parent-Affiliated Congregation, being mothered by Pastor Ron Riddle and CrossRoads Cowboy Church—El Paso, is already more than 80 strong. In the last few months, through our partnership together, we were able to purchase an already existing arena ministry in Natural Dam, Arkansas, and the church has joyfully relocated to this new location, and we’re now calling them CrossRoads Cowboy Church—Natural Dam. They are beginning to offer outreach ministries to their region, and we anticipate great things.

Also, in September 2019, we launched Nueva Vida Iglesia del Nazareno in Siloam Springs, as a Parent-Affiliated Congregation of our Siloam Springs Church and Pastor Tim and Sarah Traxel. Pastor Manuel and Jasmine Rodriguez, in partnership with Pastors Beck and Anita Rodriguez and the congregation of Rogers Primera, have drawn together a core team of twelve people, who are excited about this new opportunity to minister to the Hispanic community in western Benton County and eastern Oklahoma. With Pastor Manuel’s upcoming retirement in the next few months, join us in prayer for this new ministry as they prayerfully seek new leadership and begin their work in earnest.

13

In November 2019, we launched Nueva Vida Iglesia del Nazareno in Jacksonville, as a Parent-Affiliated Congregation of our Jacksonville Church and Pastors Greg and Kristina Armstrong. Pastor Moises and Silvia Moraga have already built a core group of fifteen or more who are meeting together and dreaming of the future in relationship with their mothering congregation. It has been a joy to watch this partnership come together.

In April 2020, we registered Trinity Life Church of the Nazarene in Maumelle as a new Church-Type Mission, and appointed Dr. Tim and Kelly Bullington to lead this new ministry that is already more than 40 congregants strong. We have long desired to minister to this community, and believe God has brought this to fruition for such a time as this. We anticipate the organization of this new church at some point this church year.

Since last district assembly, in addition to the four new church planting pastors mentioned above, we were also blessed to welcome the following senior pastors to our district’s churches: Rev. Gretchen & Keith Rooney—Hickory Plains, Rev. Allison Beaty—McCrory, Rev. Jeff & Donna LeBert—Pea Ridge, and Rev. Timothy & Teresa Hampton—Springdale First. We’re thrilled to have these men and women serving with us in North Arkansas.

We will celebrate these new ministries and pastors, more appropriately, at next year’s assembly—hopefully right alongside a few others as the Holy Spirit brings us together! Join me in continuing to pray the Matthew 9:37-38 prayer: “Lord, give us workers to the harvest: great laborers for our local churches, great pastors for our churches, great servant-leaders who will serve the global church, and great church planters to begin new works, so we can do great work in your harvest field.”

Finally, as I close, I’d like to thank all of you for your service to Christ and our district. Thanks to our three auxiliary directors: Zina Weihe for loving missions and leading our NMI so well; to Tim Britton for embracing the challenge of SDMI as Mark Snodgrass ably handed it off to him this year; to Peter Kline for loving our teens and stewarding our NYI ministries with grace. Thanks to all of you who serve on the District Advisory Board: Laypersons—Dr. Don Guinn, Mr. Bill Millburn, Mr. Dale Webster, and Dr. Scott Woodward; Clergy—Rev. Tim Britton, Rev. Ron Riddle, Rev. Mark Snodgrass, and Rev. Steve Thrasher, Ron Riddle, and Tim Britton. It is my joy to make decisions with you, and to have such a great and committed team of leaders to share the responsibilities of leadership. Special thanks to Mrs. Susan Baker, who works so well with us as treasurer for our district—we’ve learned a lot together this year, haven’t we Susan?

14

Special thanks to Rev. Steve Thrasher, who is as steady and faithful a district secretary as any district superintendent could ever hope for. And special thanks to Mrs. Melanie Thrasher for her excellent service as our district office/administrative assistant. Melanie is constantly learning new things, simplifying our administrative tasks, and is always available as needed. She is a joy to work with! Colleagues, I appreciate you, your friendship, and most of all your prayers for me: professionally as the DS, but also personally for my family as we navigate this (still) new role in this new era of church leadership. Kelly and I celebrated our 23rd anniversary in May, and I am thankful to God for bringing us together all those years ago. Our ministry journey has never been a straight line, but it has been an adventure. Journeying with her through a life of service to Christ and His Church has been my greatest blessing.

I look forward to all God will do for us, and through us, this church year, and can’t wait when we can gather back together for a physical district assembly next June in Jonesboro! Until then, lean into the promise, “Let us not become weary in doing good, for at the proper time we will reap a harvest if we do not give up. Therefore, as we have opportunity [in other words—as long as we are drawing breath], let us do good to all people, especially to those who belong to the family of believers” Galatians 6:9-10 (NIV).

Respectfully submitted,

Dr. Mark A. Lindstrom District Superintendent

North Arkansas District- NMI President’s Report 2019-2020

To our wonderful District Superintendent, Bro. Lindstrom, our great General Superintendent, Bro. Chambo, our fabulous pastor’s and their wives, and awesome NMI presidents and super council members, and our district NMI council members of the North Arkansas District! Blessings to you in the name of our Lord and Savior, our Heavenly Father, and the sweet Holy Spirit! We are indeed blessed! Thank you God!

What a great year even with the few months of the COVID-19 virus that turned us upside down a bit! Thanks to ZOOM meetings and conference calls the work has continued on thanks to you all! Thank you God!

Before we moved here almost 30 years ago, I was a bus driver for 13 years in Illinois. I had just found out we were going to be grandparents and we were moving to Arkansas. My bus-driver buddies had fun with it and said since I was moving to a hillbilly state, I needed to be called ‘GRANNY’. Then since I zoomed here and zoomed there on the bus route, they thought “Granny Zoom Zoom” was the perfect name for me! And now, 30 years later, in this age of ZOOM meetings, I truly can say I feel like Granny Zoom Zoom even though I never drove the bus again! Thank you God!

After last year’s assembly, Larry and I had the privilege of being involved with the Teen Mission Camp as we worked alongside them helping minister to the “Soul Café” in Conway. It was so awesome, thank you Pastor Kline for letting us be a part of this! Thank you God!

I attended the Regional NMI Summit along with my husband Larry and Paula Mantel the NMI President from our Bentonville church, on October 18 & 19 at First Church in Bethany, OK. It was so uplifting and we were given great information and encouragement. Thank you God!

Then in January 16-19, 2020, Larry and I attended the District Leadership Conference for NMI USA/CANADA in Daytona, FL. Dr. Chambo brought a message that stirred our hearts. We are in great hands of leadership with him as our General. We were given ideas from many NMI Presidents across the country and much information from our Global office that made my head spin! We have an awesome responsibility. The first evening it was warm on the beach and all other days – pretty cold! It was a beautiful place to have a spiritual meeting. Thank you God!

Once again all of our churches have been working hard to get report in and see that our offerings are in the best shape. We depend on our WEF Funds, and our Easter and Thanksgiving offerings continue onward as well as our Alabaster offerings! Maybe we can double up this fall and really give a great love offering to HIM! We

16

have so much to be thankful for even during this year of pandemic and now peaceful and non peaceful protests around the country! Thank goodness for World Mission Broadcast to keep others in the know. Compassionate Ministries has been working to meet needs both here and abroad and we lovingly support our Links Families. Thank you God!

And oh how God has blessed us with a wonderful District Superintendent! He has been a pastor’s pastor and has a love for our laymen and is truly God’s called man for such a time as this! We have watched our churches all across the district ‘BE THE CHURCH’ like never before! Thank you God!

May His presence continue to saturate all of you, keep you, and help you to look at the interests and needs of others as we work together. May our mind-set be the same as Christ Jesus – a servant!

Thank you God!

Respectfully submitted - His servant,

Zina Weihe

North Arkansas District- NYI President’s Report 2019-2020

Dr. Lindstrom, Delegates & Guests of the 68th annual North Arkansas District NYI Convention, I bring you my 9th report as the North Arkansas District NYI President.

As I have thought about the NYI Report for this year it has been difficult to even process the year as a whole because of the recent events with the Coronavirus Pandemic. As I thought about it my heart went out to all our teens, especially our seniors that have had so many things taken away from them. And yet in the midst of those thoughts I have thought about his continued faithfulness as He continues to guide and direct us all during these days. We are not going to allow this to determine who we are because, despite a pandemic that we will always look back to as something that shaped this year, He has been there through it all and we MUST continue to look to Him to guide our even steps. That is a truth that was there before the pandemic and still holds true today. He is the same yesterday, today, and forever—what a great reminder that despite our current circumstances He is still on the throne.

Each year as I reflect back on the events of the previous year and begin to prepare this report, I am reminded of what a PRIVILEGE it is to serve alongside the MOST AMAZING LEADERS in our denomination, both paid and volunteer. Each year I have started off my report with the same two paragraphs and as the old saying goes, “if it ain’t broke don’t fix it” and this year is no different. As you read this report and see the ways He is working I think it will be evident that it takes all of us working together to have the impact that we do. God is doing amazing things in the heart and lives of our students and adults and they are the reason why He is able to do what He is doing. It is because of their willingness to be used however He sees fit. It is important to note that they are the heart of the North Arkansas NYI and definitely worth repeating that each year. So here goes!

It has definitely been a learning process and I am excited about what He is doing in/on and thru the lives of our adult leaders and students across North Arkansas. This journey would not be possible without the team of adults and students that help pull everything we do together like a perfected plan. And a special thanks goes out to all our adults and students that serve on our District NYI Council and the paid full-time youth pastors/leaders that we have here in North Arkansas. Without all of their hard work and dedication, NYI would not happen in North Arkansas—THANK YOU for all your hard work, dedication, and investment in the lives of our students.

However, I also know that across our district there are many youth workers that give of their time and resources week in and week out, not because of the thanks they get, but because they have answered the call to make a difference in the lives of the students that He has entrusted to them...thank you does not seem like enough—especially when you've been at that all-nighter, or driven the road to camp so many

19

times that you can do it blindfolded, or you are privileged to teach that Jr. High boys Sunday School class, or you spent your evening going to that band concert or ball game to show your support, or______ (you fill in the blank). If you are a VOLUNTEER youth leader, I want to THANK YOU for following HIS direction in your life to make a difference!

Each year this is much thought and prayer that goes into our District and SNU field events. This past year has been one filled with many great opportunities for our students to come together in an array of different ways. Check out these highlights:

Teen Bible Quizzing

Teen Bible Quizzing is competition and fellowship but more importantly it honors God through the study of His Word. This year the teen quizzers have studied the book of Hebrews as well as 1 & 2 Peter. However, when it comes to teen quizzing it often goes much further than studying the book for that year. It often means that they memorize the entire book. I don’t know if you’ve looked at these books recently, but they consist of 21 chapters and a total of 469 verses. That doesn’t just happen overnight. It takes a lot of time, hard work, and dedication to do this.

Unfortunately for our quizzers this was a difficult year and some of the quizzes that they normally participate didn’t get to happen as planned. However, despite that fact you can’t take away the lessons gained from studying the Word of God and hiding it in your heart.

If you have teens that you are wanting to get involved in studying God’s Word let me encourage you to get them involved in our district quiz program. For the 2020-2021 year students will be studying the book of Matthew. Anyone interested in finding out more about the North Arkansas teen bible quiz program may contact the district director, Melissa Mullen, at (479) 841-4404 or [email protected] . Melissa has been our quiz director I think since Moses handed her the ten Commandment tablets (or somewhere around that time) and does a fantastic job with it. She definitely has a passion for helping in this area. I know that she would love to talk to you and work with you to help get a quiz program up and going at your church and help your students put Psalm 119:11 into practice which says “I have hidden Your Word in my heart, that I might not sin against you.” And, if you are up to it, I encourage/challenge you to memorize this book (or at least the verses they are required to memorize). Several of you have children’s quizzing program and this would be a great next step for helping disciple and train up our students on His Word. Any takers on this?

Teen Camp

Teen Camp was held June 27-29 in the Greenbrier and Conway areas. It was not a camp like any we have experienced in recent years. Because of circumstances beyond our control the facility we had secured for camp was not available for us to use. So, what do great youth pastors and leaders do? We put our minds together and come up with an alternative plan. Our camp director, Aaron Webster, got to work

20

when we received this unfortunate news and contacted several different facilities, but unfortunately none were available for the time frame that we had available for camp. But that didn’t stop him or his team.

Ultimately, he helped develop what we called Mission Camp. We were lead in worship by Remedy from SNU and also had the SNU Crew there to help with some games and activities. Our speakers were our very own Dr. Lindstrom as well as Pastors Hunter Thrasher and Nicole Cotton. They provided challenging messages to our students and adults to Make a Difference in their world. We also had the opportunity to spend the day serving at a local ministry in Conway called the Soul Food Café Mission. This was a great opportunity for our students to not only learn about serving God, but to actually put it into practice.

As you know we will NOT be having teen camp this summer (groans an moans). However, we are working on plans not to put together Fall Camp which will be held November 20-22. Be watching for details on this as they become available. Your students won’t want to miss it!

NYC 2019

NYC is a denominational event that takes place once every 4 years in different cities across the US and Canada. It is designed for those that have completed 8th grade through those that have just graduated which means it is a once in a lifetime event. I have been in youth ministry now for quite some time and I can tell you that this is one of the greatest events put on by the Church of the Nazarene. As a district we were led by our NYC coordinator, Robert Yates, and were able to take a total of 998 adults and students to participate in this life-changing event. We joined around 8,736 other students, youth leaders, and volunteers as we converged on the city of Phoenix, AZ united in a time of worship, teaching, and community service. The theme was Love God Love Others Love Lived. Go check out nyc2019.com for all the highlights, sessions, and more.

SNU Party

The 4th annual SNU Party was held at the Brockington Road Church of the Nazarene on Saturday, February 15 and is a combined event with the South Arkansas District. We met at the church first for a time of worship with a group from SNU as well as a message from the South Arkansas NYI and youth pastor at Brockington Road, Jen Willard. We followed that with pizza (what else would you have at a party that involved teens) and then went to the Altitude Trampoline Park for some high-flying fun. After talking with the Admissions team from SNU they felt that this was a great event to help expose our students to Southern Nazarene University and the plans are to continue to build on this event.

As you can see there are many different activities and ways for you to be involved in and deepen your walk with Christ here on the North Arkansas District, both students and adults. And as I mentioned before, none of this would be possible without all the

21

great students and adults across our district. And again, we are thankful for all the time that is put into these events. Many sleepless nights, phone calls, Zoom meetings, etc. go into these events to make them happen. But sometimes in the midst of all the busyness of putting these events together and attending them we can lose sight of why we are doing these things because we take our focus off of Him and put it on ourselves or the programs /activities we are doing. This happens at all levels, whether that be at the local church, here on the district level, or even our field and global church.

We do not take lightly the awesome privilege and responsibility we have been given to help train, mold, and shape the students that are here in North Arkansas. Often times we look at teens as those that we are preparing to take over the church sometime in the future. However, we believe that our students need to be used today and not wait for tomorrow. Give them a chance. Undoubtedly, they will make some mistakes and things may not always go just the way we planned and that’s okay. Let it be an opportunity to help them learn and prepare them for the next time they have an opportunity to serve. Let’s not get stuck referring to them as the church of the future, but instead give them opportunities to be the CHURCH of TODAY.

North Arkansas District- SDMI Chair Report 2019-2020

In January, Dr. Lindstrom asked me if I would be willing to serve the remainder for Mark Snodgrass’s term as SDMI Chairperson, as he shifted to focus more time on his doctoral studies. I was honored to be asked but admittedly had and still have much to learn about the role.

As I’ve assumed leadership as NARK SDMI Chair I’m quickly learning that there is an incredible team of people who work hard to create opportunities for the men, women and children on our district to learn and grow as disciples of Jesus. I am thankful for the skilled leaders who have been incredibly patient and graceful to me as I have attempted to get up to speed on the programs and events the SDMI committee facilitates. These include kids camp, women’s retreat, the men’s golf outing, children’s Bible quizzing, the annual leadership summit and more. The SDMI council are truly the heroes of our SDMI ministry on the district and I consider it an honor to learn from and work with this incredibly gifted team of leaders.

September of 2019 saw the introduction of a brand-new pre-teen retreat under the skilled leadership of Diane Solberg and her team. 70 adults and 20 teens from 9 churches across the district gathered for a weekend of fun, fellowship, and growing in Christ together. This event was an overwhelming success and will become a key part of our ministry strategy moving forward.

Just as I was beginning to understand the scope of leadership for the SDMI Chair, COVID-19 shook our world, our lives, and our ministry strategies. We began addressing tough issues at the local church and district level.

Locally our churches had to begin to figure out what it looks like to make disciples when Sunday School classes and small groups are not able to gather in person. The pastors and SDMI Chairs of our churches have shown a remarkable amount of creativity and ingenuity as they have pivoted to find new ways to leverage digital mediums and online platforms to continue advancing our charge to make Christlike disciples in the nations.

At the district level, we have addressed issues like the viability of kid’s camp and other events this summer, and the ongoing leadership plan in the absence of church elections and district assembly this year. This group has again proven insightful and innovative as we seek fresh new ways to continue serving the district and fulfilling our mission. This selfless group of servant hearted leaders has volunteered to serve for another 12 months, and plans are already in the works for a weekend retreat for our children who will miss out on camp this summer.

As we peer into the future it is nearly impossible to predict what the next months could hold for us. While there is much about the future that is unknown, I am certain

24

of a few of things. First, I am confident that the churches of the North Arkansas District will continue to fresh ways to meet needs and make disciples in their churches and communities. Secondly, I am sure that your district SDMI leadership team will do everything possible to partner with you while serving and resourcing our district family. Ultimately, I have an unwavering uncompromising conviction that God is still good, still sovereign, still with us and for us, and working all things together for the good. Because of this, I know the best is yet to come.

Making Christlike Disciples,

Tim Britton NARK SDMI Chair

Memoirs Report

Dr. Chambo, Dr. Lindstrom, and the North Arkansas District Church of the Nazarene,

The Body of Christ lives in a glass house and under a microscope at all times, but in the world’s current crisis, COVID-19, racial unrest, and unprecedented political polarization, the eyes upon us are laser focused toward our response of heart and action. In realizing this, our faith in moments of grief have never had an opportunity to speak louder and to a more diverse audience.

The precious words of Jesus, in His final hours among His earthly friends, are recorded in the Gospel of John 16:22, “So with you: Now is your time of grief, but I will see you again and you will rejoice, and no one will take away your joy.” This is the promise we have: In the depth of our heartbreak, there will be a joy that cannot be defined or bound and will cause our present agony to become irrelevant.

The hope of salvation does not exempt any Christian from the pain of loss. Those who are now missing from our physical presence leave an aching void, but our hope is in knowing they are in the full and eternal company of our Good and Loving Father, and He alone fills the emptiness we experience. There is now a space in our sanctuaries where a brother or sister once sat, but a new joy comes when a sinner, saved by Grace, is welcomed into the House of the Lord and soon occupies that seat. The testimony, tithes, offerings and labors of love, from the hearts and voices now gone, still echo, and they continue to perpetuate the work they began.

Sorrow is an appropriate response to great loss, but more important is the testimony of indescribable hope we as believers must live and share with a world in despair. We are the connecting point between a world of darkness and Heaven’s light. So, on this occasion of memorial, we offer our greatest appreciation for the legacy of faithfulness and constancy these lives modeled and sacrificed for. Let us go forward to further the work of love they began and celebrate their transfer of membership into the Church Triumphant.


Rev. Gretchen E. Rooney

Finance Committee Report

We, your Finance Committee, submit the following report and recommendations.

A. Fund Procedures Report

1. “Funding the Mission” computations. All of our churches support the globalministries of the Church of the Nazarene by contributing a percentage ofcurrent church year income. Church income is any donation received by thechurch that qualifies as a charitable contribution. All donations that qualify fora charitable contribution receipt are included in church income. This includesnon-cash donations of $5,000.00 or more. This plan for funding the missionapplies to all churches, including New Start churches. Note: Amountscontributed to World Evangelism Fund (WEF) and Mission Specials areexcluded from total income prior to application of the allocation percentages.This calculation is available online.

More information, including FAQ and examples, is available at www.fundingthemission.org . Also available at this site is the “Track Giving” tab, an online tool designed to assist local churches with tracking their progress toward full payment of their allocation for funding the mission. Online payments of WEF and P & B can also be made through this web site.

2. Fund Percentages. Funding the Mission allocation goals are:

World Evangelism Fund (WEF) 5.50% Pensions and Benefits (P&B) 2.25% Education Fund (SNU) 2.25% District Unified Fund (DUF) 5.50%

These percentages are calculated using the local church's Adjusted Church Income (under line 30) less amounts given for WEF (line 31) and Missions Specials (line 32).

3. Fund Source.a. The general church sets the percentages for

(1) World Evangelism Fund(2) Education Fund(3) Pensions and Benefits Fund

b. The District Finance Committee, in consultation with the DistrictSuperintendent, recommends the percentage for the District UnifiedFund.

4. Fund Guidelines. We recommend:

44

a. That each pastor and church board, as per 2017-2021 Manual par.129.6 study the total financial responsibility of the church at thebeginning of the assembly year and set up a proposed plan toinclude raising funds for all general, educational, and districtobligations, as well as for the operation of the local church.

b. That each church make payments on all funds on a monthly basis,based on the monthly church income.

c. That no congregation be granted permission to go into debt for anybuilding program until (Manual 237.4):

(1) It has shown its ability and willingness to pay all of itsobligations, local, district and general, for the two precedingyears.

(2) All finance obligations are current.(3) It has shown evidence that it can service the additional debt

without jeopardizing the spiritual life of the church.(4) It is in harmony with the policies of the District Church

Properties Board and has received written permission fromthem and the district superintendent.

(5) The amount of indebtedness will not exceed three times theaverage of the amount raised for all purposes in each of thepreceding three years.

d. That each church adopt a designated giving policy. Examples areavailable through the website www.fundingthemission.org.

e. That if a church has not paid all of its assigned funds for the previousyear, and if obligations are not paid-to-date for the current year(Manual, par. 159-159.2), then the district superintendent should notapprove the employing of staff personnel or approve thecontinuance of staff for the new year.

f. That each pastor and church board take seriously theirresponsibilities as outlined in the 2017-2021 Manual, par. 130: Thechurch board, together with the pastor, shall follow plans adopted bythe General Assembly and agreed to by the district assembly forraising apportionments of World Evangelism Funds and districtobligation funds made to the local church, and shall raise andregularly pay these apportionments.

g. Sometimes, events and circumstances put an otherwise faithfulcongregation in a situation in which the standard formula doesn’t work. The Rare Circumstance Adjustment is designed for flexibility, generosity, and grace. This adjustment helps the local church facing rare circumstances to continue to be recognized as a full partner in the global mission.

Each local church is subject to unique circumstances: the sudden loss of substantial revenue-generating members, an unexpected

45

legal situation, a large non-cash donation to the local church, or other designated gifts. In any case, the standard definition of church income might represent an unfair burden on the local church. Therefore, a plan is in place to provide adjustments under rare circumstances.

A request for the Rare Circumstance Adjustment must be submitted in the affected year by writing a summary of the unusual circumstances, completing the request form available through www.fundingthemission.org, obtain the approval of the District Superintendant and the District Advisory Board, and sending the request to the general treasurer of the Church of the Nazarene during the affected church year. A leadership team at the Global Ministry Center will consider the request based on the circumstances, church-giving patterns, and history of denominational faithfulness and will notify the pastor and District Superintendant within thirty days.

B. District Unified Fund Allocations

1. The District Unified Fund should be allocated as follows: 4% Sunday School Ministries Fund 4% NMI Fund 4% NYI Ministries Fund 15% Missions USA 73% District Fund

C. Missions USA

1. We recommend that churches receiving financial assistance develop plans tobecome fully self-supporting within three years or before.

2. All churches receiving assistance must submit a detailed plan outlining theirprogram to become self-supporting to the District Advisory Board.

3. All churches on district assistance must pay their obligations in full forcontinued support. Monthly payments are imperative.

4. A monthly report provided by the District Office must be completed andreturned to the District Office by the end of any given month before the nextmonth’s assistance is provided.

5. All “NewStart” or “ReStart” pastors will commit to an established contract thatwill include “Launch Sunday” dates, and organizational date goals.

We expect the NewStart to become fully organized when the NewStart becomes:

a. Self-Supporting—able to financially support themselves. However,self-supporting also means paying their fair share to others. This willbe initiated by 10% of all church income to pay WEF, P&B and SNUallocations.

b. Self-Propagating—The pastor must work closely with the DistrictSuperintendent in order to allow an Advisory Council to be appointedby the District Superintendent. This will allow continuity if for someunforeseen reason the NewStart church loses its pastor.

c. Self-Governing—We will require that the Pastor and/or the DistrictSuperintendent coach the congregation on Nazarene Doctrine andPolity. Our DNA must be continued in our NewStarts.

d. Self-Reproducing—We realize the experience will be our best teacher.Reproducing who we are should be a primary goal of all NewStarts assoon as they are fully organized. They will be the most likelycandidates to plant the seeds of reproduction.

D. Guidelines for Local Church Treasurers

1. To prepare, in cooperation with the Pastor and Church Board, an annualoperating budget for the local church.

2. In counting and accounting for all moneys received and disbursed by thelocal church, the provisions of the 2017-2021 Manual, pars. 129.20-129.23 shallbe observed.

3. All treasurers’ books and all records are to be available to the pastor at alltimes.

4. The pastor shall receive a weekly report of all moneys received and a copy ofthe monthly report that is presented to the church board by the treasurer.

48

5. When payment of funds has been approved by the church, the treasurershould make payment at the time and for the purpose designated. Forpayments to the WEF and P&B funds, we recommend the use of the “FundingThe Mission” web site. www.fundingthemission.org

6. In no case should a person serve as treasurer of a local church who is notwilling to conform to the position of the Manual, par. 136.

7. In the handling of all funds for future expansion and building development,these funds be kept in a separate bank account. No withdrawals are to bemade without two or more signatures.

8. We recommend that the church board arrange for an annual auditing of alltreasurers’ books, as per 2017-2021 Manual, par. 129.23, at least a cash flowaudit every year, and a full audit every five years. The full audit should bedone outside the church personnel.

9. All moneys received by the church or auxiliaries are to be recorded andreported. It is neither proper nor ethical to carry side accounts independentof the church treasurer’s records.

10. It is a violation of the auditing principles and Manual procedures for anindividual to receive credit as a contribution to the local church for moneys,gifts, properties, and so forth that are designated for persons, functions, andso on that are not specifically for the church.

11. After moneys are counted by competent personnel, they should be depositedand the receipt given to the treasurer. The treasurer should never handle themoney.

12. Monthly reports are to be made available upon request.

E. Miscellaneous

1. We recommend that the elected members of the district boards bereimbursed 40 cents per mile, plus meals and lodging, while traveling to andfrom duly called district meetings.

2. Copies of the District Journal can be obtained online at:http://nazarene.org/DocumentLibrary/

F. Ministerial Support

It is the sacred duty of the church to assume full responsibility for the support of the pastor and staff. We, therefore, submit the following recommendations to the local church.

1. Housinga. Provide quality housing for the Pastor and credentialed ministerial

staff.b. Provide all utility costs: fuel, electricity, water, garbage, and

49

telephone. c. If the church owns or rents the parsonage, it shall provide insurance

on the parsonage contents and review the policy annually.2. Salary

a. Provide a salary based on the Manual’s expectations of the pastor(Manual pars. 514-522), taking into consideration whether they are fulltime or bi-vocational.

b. Provide a salary review: At the time of developing the annual budget at the beginning of

the church year based on the cost of living index (to keep pastor’s salary current with inflation)

Each January, in appreciation for the pastor’s ministry, consider a merit increase.

c. The church board secretary is to report action taken on both cost ofliving and merit increases to the district superintendent within 15days following the meeting.

d. The retirement program of the pastor contains four elements:(1) Social Security(2) Nazarene Pensions(3) Personal Savings(4) Tax-Sheltered AnnuityWe recommend that each church set aside an amount equal tofive percent of the pastor’s salary to be placed in a tax-shelteredannuity (Nazarene tax sheltered annuity or some other accountableprogram) and that this amount be increased to 10 percent as soonas possible.

3. Benefitsa. Consider establishing an I.R.S. approved medical reimbursement

plan for the pastor and qualified ministerial staff.b. Pay all the pastor’s social securityc. Consider the life insurance program available through the

Department of Pensions and provide adequate coverage for thepastor.

4. Business Expense Reimbursementa. Recognize that auto expense, while doing church business, is the

local church’s responsibility. If the church cannot provide anautomobile and pay the expenses, it should reimburse the pastor forthe use of his car while conducting the business of the church.Expenses include gasoline, oil, tires, license, depreciation, andinsurance. We suggest reimbursement in harmony with IRSguidelines. At the least, the pastor should be reimbursed at aminimum level for actual expense (gasoline, tires and maintenance).

b. Reimbursement for travel expenses, meals and lodging for pastor

50

and spouse to the district assembly, Ministers’ and Spouses’ Retreat, district camps, district meetings, General Assembly, ministers’ workshops, and so forth. (Time taken for such activities is not to be considered a part of the pastor’s vacation)

c. Provide for the expenses of church officials and guests (includinggroups and evangelists) who visit the congregation in an officialcapacity.

5. Pastoral Carea. Encourage your pastor to take a day off each week.b. Consult, in the event of a serious illness of the local pastor, the

district superintendent for guidance.c. Give a love offering equal to, or exceeding, the pastor’s weekly

salary, during the Christmas season.d. Give periodic expressions of love to the Pastor and Staff, including a

Pastor’s Appreciation Sunday in October of each year.e. Remember appropriately the parsonage family on birthdays,

marriage anniversary, employment anniversary, and so forth.6. Vacations.

a. We recommend the following formula in granting vacations to thepastor. Those having served in a full-time or bi-vocational capacityin the Church of the Nazarene (not just a local congregation):

One to five years two weeks vacation Five to 10 years three weeks

vacation 11 years and over four weeks vacation

(Note: The district superintendent’s vacation is also computed from the above scale)

b. Grant vacations with payc. Do not allow vacations to be accumulated from one year to the nextd. All vacation times should be approved and scheduled through the

local church boarde. Time taken for District Assembly, Minister & Spouse Retreat, District

Camps, District Meetings, General Assembly, minister’s workshops,etc. is not to be considered a part of the Pastor’s vacation.Furthermore, consideration should be given by the local church toreimbursing Bi-vocational Pastors for lost wages while attending theabove-mentioned ministries.

7. Continuing Educationa. Sabbatical: In accordance with Manual par. 129.10, and in order to

encourage the lifelong learning of the pastor in spiritual, emotional,and educational dimensions, the church board may in consultationwith the District Superintendent, consider supporting asabbatical/study leave for any full time pastoral staff during his or

51

her seventh consecutive year of service in one congregation. (Sample Sabbatical Proposals can be furnished by the District office.)

b. Professional Enrichment: We encourage every church to provide the opportunity and reimbursement for expenses for the pastor to attend professional enrichment seminars provided by the district or otherwise.

8. Miscellaneous a. Extend the same pastoral benefits, as listed above, to full-time

pastoral staff. b. That pastors be very conscientious of proper personal time spent

away from the church area. Hired by and accountable to the church via the church board, the pastor is responsible to clear time away. Personal time away, of any duration, should be cleared by the church board or a designated person or committee

c. The pastor should be a part of the district team and fellowship by attending all district scheduled events relating to pastors and their assignments.

d. That support staff also be given maximum consideration as to salary and benefits in the local church.

e. That churches invite evangelists, missionaries, and/or retired ministers on the district to preach and lead worship in times of pastoral absence, and that adequate remuneration be provided, including travel expense both to and from the local church.

e. That this entire report on ministerial support be sent from the district office to each church board secretary within 30 days of its adoption. (by e-mail when possible) The local church board secretary will be responsible for the distribution of the report to the entire church board.

G. Evangelists.

We recommend: That careful attention be given to a fair and generous honorarium for the

evangelist.

Visiting evangelists represent an important part of our tradition and serve a valuable role within the church. In fact, the Board of General Superintendents has observed that "our past and present is richer because of the sacrificial obedience of these persons."

Given the importance we attach to the ministry of evangelists, we well might ask how to compensate them appropriately for the service they perform for the local church. We recommend the following guidelines.

52

� Cover the evangelist's travel expenses both to and from the local church.

� Pay an honorarium of at least $1,000 whenever possible.

� Provide housing, meals, and study resources while the evangelist is serving the local

congregation.

� In consultation with the evangelist, contribute to the evangelist's TSA account.

� Where appropriate, designate a portion of the compensation as housing allowance.

� Remember the evangelist at Christmas with a generous love offering.

Respectfully submitted, Curtis Clements, Chair

General Superintendents Growth Award

The purpose of the General Superintendents’ Growth Award (GSGA) is to give prominence to those practices that are central to the local and worldwide

advancement of the church; specifically, new Nazarenes, significant involvement in sponsoring a new church, and 100% participation in fund allocations.

1) Core Group sponsorship: A number of lay people equal to at least 10% of theprevious year’s average worship attendance is “given” to the new church. (Theminimum requirement would be 6 adults; the maximum requirement would be100.) This confers sponsorship status for the assembly year in which the peopleare transferred to the new work and the following assembly year, and may be

recorded on the Pastor’s Report form and on the Church Directory Sheet for thedistrict journal.

2) Financial sponsorship: Actual cash is provided, either directly to the newcongregation or as payment of the new group’s obligations (including newchurch leadership), equal to 2% of the previous year’s Total Church Income.

This confers sponsorship status for each year that these criteria are met, andmay be recorded on the Pastor’s Report form and on the Church Directory

Sheet for the district journal.

3) Gifts in Kind sponsorship: Documentable support* is provided to the newcongregation equal to 3% of the previous year’s Total Church Income. This

support may be the contribution and/or use of church equipment (chairs, vans, buses, hymnals) or church facilities (often done in multi-congregational

settings) or any other means that provides tangible help to the new group or to the pastoral family (food poundings, clothing, etc.) This confers sponsorship status for each year that these criteria are met, and may be recorded on the

Pastor’s Report form and on the Church Directory Sheet for the district journal.

This year we are proud to present the General Superintendent’s Growth Award to: Crossroads Cowboy Church
