Also, in the 2007, 2008, and 2009 journals, the dates of organization for several churches were incorrectly listed. These have been corrected in this 2010 journal to reflect the original dates that appear in the 2006 journal. The churches affected include: Chicago First, Chicago First Korean, Chicago First Spanish, Chicago Ingleside, Chicago Norridge Arabic, Kempton, and Potomac. Chicago Hickory Hills was incorrectly disorganized in the 2009 District Advisory Board Report. The disorganization is going to be reversed and the church is going to be listed as inactive.

A special presentation was made for District Superintendent, Dr. Brian Wilson, by his daughter Jennifer Wilson, in honor of Father’s Day.

The Olivetians presented another worship package. Rev. Kendall Franklin, host pastor, greeted the congregation. Dr. Susan Armstrong, associate pastor from Manteno prayed the invocation and Rev.

District Superintendent, Dr. Brian E. Wilson, reminded the congregation of the process of electing three new General Superintendents at last year’s General Assembly and, for the first time in the history of the Church of the Nazarene, elected a General Superintendent from the region of Africa. He introduced Dr. Eugénio Duarte, who welcomed the congregation to the 106th District Assembly of the Chicago Central District. Dr. Duarte then described where he is from in Cape Verde and how the Church of the Nazarene was established there many years ago. Dr. Duarte brought greetings from his wife, Maria Teresa Duarte who was unable to join him for this assembly, and from the Board of General Superintendents. He declared that the assembly is now called to order and that Dr. Wilson will be sharing his report momentarily. He invited us to pay close attention to the visionary report that will be presented by Dr. Wilson and introduced Dr. Brian E Wilson for his report.

Pastors Rev. Randall Holden and Rev. Michael Evans prayed for the Message and the Messenger, and The Olivetians sang before Dr. Wilson presented his thirteenth report to the district. Dr. Wilson began his report by introducing and welcoming the new pastors on the district. He then introduced new associates and district leaders from the auxiliary departments. Edward Peñate, part-time staff at the District Ministry Center, was introduced as well as those who volunteer there. Edward Heck, District Secretary; Matt Foor, District Treasurer; and Michelle Thomas, Financial Secretary, were also introduced, as well as Dr. Wilson’s immediate family. All fathers were asked to stand and several received special recognition.

Dr. Wilson then presented his report – “10-10-10: Mission in Times of Challenge and Opportunity.” He thanked the district for the generosity of our district family in a year of natural disasters and economic downturns. He shared that the fiscal health of the Chicago Central District has shown a $700,000 turnaround this year. He reported on the new system of “Funding the Mission” that has been implemented by the General Church and by each District, sharing his vision for “Budgeting for Mission” to be implemented on the Chicago Central District. He shared the implications of the new system and gave cause for celebration as he shared the statistics from the 2009-2010 fiscal year. He reported that two churches were formally organized on the district: Living Water Church of the Nazarene on April 11, 2010, under the leadership of Pastor

Steve Cook, and Casa de Dios Church of the Nazarene on May 23, 2010, under the leadership of Pastor Diomedes Franco. Pastor Jack McCormick, pastor of Manteno Church of the Nazarene for 25 years, was invited to the platform and was honored by Dr. Wilson for 25 years of pastoral service at Manteno. The sculpture entitled “The Calling” was given by Dr. Duarte. Dr. Wilson also announced that a scholarship is being endowed by the local church through NTS in honor of Rev. and Mrs. McCormick. Jim and Pat Hair were also invited to the platform and honored by the assembly. Their pastor, Rev. Kevin Ulmet, announced that Jim is celebrating his 77th birthday today and is serving his 53rd consecutive year of service on the local church board. The sculpture, “A Cup of Cold Water in His Name,” was presented to Mr. and Mrs. Hair for their dedicated years of service.

The Mission Area Assistants to the District Superintendent (MAADS) were introduced: Rev. Kevin Ulmet, Dr. Edward Heck and Rev. Jack McCormick along with Rev. Wilfredo Canales and Rev. Tim Mercer, all of whom will serve alongside the D.S. in the 2010-2011 fiscal year.

Dr. Wilson then shared the history of the Church of the Nazarene in Chicago and shared deliberate steps to give top priority to the mission to the city in fulfillment to the call that was given to him 13 years ago by this district.

He explained the 10-10-10 theme as a challenge to use Sunday, October 10, 2010 as a missional commitment Sunday, to give 10 percent for global missions, with every member praying for 10 persons, and an increase of at least 10 in Sunday School during the year.

Dr. Wilson challenged the crowd with the idea that Chicago needs the message of holiness and then shared his vision for the district and plans to impact the City of Chicago in the year to come.

Dr. Wilson asked the three mission area assistants to come and pray, followed in prayer by Dr. Duarte.

The Olivetians sang “We Are Not Ashamed” at the close of Dr. Wilson’s report thus concluding the opening session of the assembly.

B. MONDAY MORNING June 21, 2010 -- 9:00 a.m.

His theme was “Why Olivet?” He reported that these are good days with record-breaking numbers. Dr. Bowling introduced Dr. Brian Allen, who greeted the delegation and introduced a booklet entitled “Why Olivet” that has been distributed to everyone in the sanctuary. It shows the story and statistics of Olivet Nazarene University. The Olivetians introduced themselves and then concluded the report with a song.

Dr. Duarte thanked Dr. Bowling for his report and asked the congregation to stand if they accept the report of Olivet Nazarene University.

Video reports from The Church of the Nazarene Foundation and Nazarene Publishing House were shown. Dr. Wilson noted that Nazarene Publishing House has been affected by the economic situation and they are not visiting any district assemblies this year. Dr. Hardy Weathers has sent a gift to each pastor from NPH.

DISTRICT OFFICERS

A. District Superintendent’s Report 2010

10 – 10 - 10: Mission in Times of Challenge and Opportunity

Introduction Before I share with you what God has laid on my heart and mind, I want to introduce

someone to you… A year ago at this time we held district assembly at Kankakee First Church. Along with

the wonderful reports of victories in our churches, we had also celebrated the wonderful contribution in ministry of our presiding general superintendent, Dr. Paul Cunningham, and in their honor established the Paul and Connie Cunningham Scholarship for Urban Ministers in Chicago. Even as we concluded our district assembly, we were preparing to travel to Orlando, Florida, to participate in the global gathering of Nazarenes at the denomination’s General Assembly. That was to be an historic occasion, as the Nazarene family was to elect three new general superintendents. After some very interesting rounds of voting, the Lord blessed the church by providing us with the leadership of Dr. Eugenio Duarte, Dr. David Graves and Dr. Stan Toler. Dr. Eugenio Duarte was the first of the new generals to be elected, and we are privileged to welcome him today as our presiding general superintendent.

Many of you were at General Assembly and experienced what I experienced on the floor of the assembly with the delegation, or you followed the session via the live streaming video provided over the Internet. What a blessed time it was! For the first time in the history of our century-old church, we elected a general superintendent from the region of Africa. When his election was announced, the African delegates and others rushed to the place where Dr. Duarte was seated, and lifted him up on their shoulders, and waved the flags of various African nations as they sang “Africa, oh Africa”. It seemed like half an hour passed, and yet it seemed as if time stood still, as he made his way to the platform to respond to the will of the assembly. I remember it as if it were yesterday, as in such a humble, unassuming spirit he accepted the election, and told us all, “This is what being a missional church gets you!”

Dr. Duarte will be preaching for us tomorrow morning. You will not want to miss that. But I want to invite him this evening to come and bring us a word of greeting, and to officially open our District Assembly session. Would you please welcome our general superintendent, Dr. Eugenio Duarte? ------------------------------------------------

Dr. Duarte and members of the 106th District Assembly of the Chicago Central District, it is my privilege this evening to present my 13th annual report as superintendent of this fine district. Joan and I are humbled and privileged at the opportunity to serve with you on this mission field. I always look forward to sharing with the district family, the work of God that I observe as I travel the district and visit our pastors and our churches. I look forward with great eagerness and anticipation to the pastors’ reports tomorrow. It will be a time of great celebration.

It is my privilege to present to you some new pastors and associates who have joined us this year….

PASTORS

• Carl Leth, pastor at Hoopeston (August 2009) • Randall Holden, pastor at Potomac (January 2010) • Diomedes Franco, pastor at Casa de Dios (May 2010)

Page 62: Chicago Central District 2010 : 106th Annual Assembly Journal

61

• Dae Haeng Hur, pastor at 4th Korean church (June 2010) • Jeff Alexander, will begin his pastorate at Hoopeston on July 1, 2010

ASSOCIATE PASTORS • Jasper Taylor, associate pastor of worship arts ministries at Kankakee First Church • Rev. Brian Smith, executive/administrative pastor at College Church, and wife Jamie.

Came to us in June of 2010 from Hutchinson First Church. He served there with Pastor Franklin for 12 years.

• Rev. Ellen Steward, pastor to families with children at College Church, and husband Phil. She comes to us from Grove City, Ohio.

• Rev. Matt Smith, pastor to university students, and wife Michelle, also works at ONU as the director of recreation and student life.

• Dr. Mark Quanstrom – teaching pastor at College Church’s university campus, and teaches full time at ONU.

• Rev. Jessica Karuchit, children’s pastor at Chicago First Church, also coming from Grove City, Ohio. Jessica came to Christ through the ministry of Chicago First, and her first part-time ministry was served there. Now she is back full-time where it all started for her.

• Andy Waddell, worship leader at Kankakee Eastridge, arrived last August. Scott Sargent, youth pastor, perhaps introduced last year.

• Beth Bidle, children’s pastor at Chicago Heights. • Caroline Wainwright, Children’s pastor at Limestone Community Church.

I also want to express my appreciation to the members of our District Advisory Board who has invested so much of their time and talent in assisting this district superintendent this year.

It would be important for us to also recognize those who led our three district departments this year: NMI – Rev. Rodney Miller

NYI – Steve Spangenberg, Bill Koch, Tim Britton, Enrique Mayen

SDMI – Cindi Scimmelpfennig

And then, there is my beloved office assistant, Edward Penate, whom you have all come to know and love. He serves our churches with grace and joy. He has a servant’s heart, and is extremely talented. When you refer to permanent district ministry center staff, it is essentially Edward and yours truly. Edward does a full-time job in a part-time arrangement, and we are very blessed to count on him. We have had the blessing of occasional volunteer and part-time help on specific projects from Rev. Michael Evans, pastor of our Chicago Ingleside Church, Pastor Jaime Lechuga, of our Mt. Prospect International Church, and of Mrs. Sandra Pineda, who volunteers countless hours to help us in the office.

Our District Secretary is Dr. Ed Heck, who does very competent work, and for whom this time of year is very busy. He also holds down a full-time job as pastor of Kankakee First Church. I think we have one of the finest district secretary’s in the Church of the Nazarene.

Our District Treasurer is Mr. Matt Foor, who is employed full-time at Olivet Nazarene University, but who gives hours and hours of his time each month to oversee our district financial operations. He is assisted by Mrs. Michelle Thomas, our Financial Secretary, who serves us part-time, but who go above and beyond the call to help us with our department finances, apportionments, monthly bills, payroll and so much more.

Even though the list of district employees is very short, the list of those who serve you throughout the year goes on and on. I will mention a few others later in my report, but would you once again express your appreciation to these we’ve mentioned so far and the others who serve you?

A special thank you to my wife, Joan, and our children, David and Jennifer, for their strong support in this ministry. After my decision to follow Christ, the next best decision I ever made in my life was to marry well. And I married way up! And God has blessed our marriage with an awesome son and daughter, and last summer he blessed us with a wonderful and amazing daughter-in-law, Kaylee. On this Father’s Day, I consider myself most blessed.

The theme of my vision report to you is: 10-10-10: Mission in Times of Challenge and Opportunity.

One need not look far to recognize how extraordinarily challenging are the times in which we live. The economic climate is often described as the worst this country has experienced, second only to the Great Depression. The stock market losses, the high unemployment rate, the record number of housing foreclosures, and homes that now are worth less than the mortgages held by their owners, all contribute to the economic challenges and uncertainties which are the reality of our times. The rest of the world is experiencing similar economic crises, and we aren’t really sure if the light we see is light at the end of the tunnel, or that of a train heading our way. There seems to be general consensus that it will take years to see significant relief from our present economic challenges.

Off the shores of Texas, Louisiana, Mississippi, Alabama and Florida, the worst ecological disaster in US history continues to unfold as hundreds of thousands of gallons of raw oil spew daily from a severed oil platform riser five miles below the ocean’s surface.

Our children, spouses and other family members and friends continue to be deployed to war zones around the world. Strife among the nations of the world could keep us on edge, wondering, what is next?

Natural disasters such as the Haiti and Chile earthquakes, flooding in Poland and Oklahoma, hurricanes and typhoons around the world, seem to clamor incessantly for our involvement in relief efforts.

These are indeed, challenging times. And yet, they are also times of great opportunity. The Scriptures remind us in 2

Corinthians 12:7-10 “My grace is sufficient for you, for my power is made perfect in weakness.” I wish I could give an obvious and satisfactory explanation of why bad things happen. About the best I can do is recognize that we live in a fallen world, marred because of sin, that is not of the original design and intent of the creator God. And yet, in the midst of the pain and suffering that comes our way, much of it our own making, God, in His love, continues to minister grace and mercy, through the people called by His name, through a people called the Church, some of whom are also called Nazarenes.

Let me give us some examples tonight of the challenges and opportunities that have come our way and to which the church has responded beautifully in the past year.

Natural Disasters

The Haiti Earthquake – over $50,000 was given by Chicago Central Nazarene to help the relief efforts this Caribbean nation.

The Chile Earthquake – We had a Work and Witness team on the ground within a few weeks, and they were not only building their previously planned project, but ministering to those affected and displaced by the earthquake as well.

Finances

These are undoubtedly some of the most challenging times economically that we have faced as a nation, as individuals, and as the church. In the midst of these times, however, God has been faithful, and you have been faithful! Thank you for being such a generous people and a people so committed to the cause of Christ, that you continue to give and give, making an eternal difference in the lives of people, many of whom you may never meet this side of heaven.

Tomorrow our assembly delegates will be blessed to hear the outstanding report of our district treasurer, Mr. Matt Foor. I’ll not duplicate his report tonight, but my accounting to you would not be complete without at least giving you a glimpse into what God has done for us this year. Let me preface my remarks by saying to you, that when I signed on to this ministry at your invitation 13 years ago, I did not realize how much of my time would be spent with realtors, bankers, village officials, building inspectors, insurance agents and attorneys. This year that load has been exceptionally heavy, as the times in which we live make ever more critical the maintenance of strong fiscal and operational health.

We began our fiscal year with the liabilities of several churches which had not been able to pay their mortgages and/or their insurance premiums. Some of our congregations were not able to continue their pastors’ health insurance premiums. Your DS and District Advisory Board have made it a priority this year to do everything in our means to take care of our churches and pastors, without jeopardizing the district’s own viability. In order to keep our churches from losing their properties, and pastors from losing their health coverage, and to fulfill our obligations included in the contract on the sale of our campground several years ago, at the end of last year we reported a line of credit balance, and several mortgages which the district was still covering for our churches.

This is what our situation looked like last year: • Cash in the Bank -- $91,801 • Line of Credit Balance -- $109,000 • Liabilities in the form of mortgage balances we were helping pay off: $485,985 • We were spending money to maintain and insure vacant properties. • The campground project was still costing us, as the sewer and water projects were

completed.

The Lord helped us this year, as our churches came through with the payment of their apportionments in strong and sacrificial fashion, the district again reduced its operating budget, we completed our obligation with the campground project, and the Lord helped us sell a vacant building which allowed us to recuperate capital expenditures we had made on behalf of our churches and the campground.

At the end of the 2009-10 fiscal year, our financial situation looks very different from last year.

• Cash in the Bank -- $279,717 • Line of Credit – paid off • Liabilities in the form of mortgage balances we are helping pay off -- $150,545 • One less vacant property to insure and maintain • The campground sale is now generating revenue for us, as the five year grace period on

payments has expired.

I praise God for what I consider a $700,000 dollar turn-around year! God has helped us make the most of our opportunities in very challenging economic times.

Our fiscal health at this stage is appropriate for the changes we anticipate in the new church year. A very significant change has taken place with regards to the system used by the general church to fund the mission of the church. For several decades, the participation of local churches in funding the global, district, regional and national mission of the church has been determined by a complex formula based on the previous year’s spending patterns in the local church. As that formula was applied, each church was assigned an amount to give in the new year for World Evangelism, District Support, support of our regional university, and support of a pensions program for our pastors. Depending on the previous year’s report for each local church, the formula could result in a percentage anywhere from 10% to 20% for each of our churches. The average percentage was 17% of the previous year’s income.

At the 2009 meeting of the General Board, a new system was adopted, and has been implemented on the Chicago Central District as of May 1, 2010, the beginning of our new fiscal year. The new system, using the concept and terminology of “tithe and offerings”, is based on the

Page 65: Chicago Central District 2010 : 106th Annual Assembly Journal

64

current year’s income of each local church. Each local church is asked to “tithe” on her current monthly income. The “tithe” is distributed to three of the four ministry funds in this way: 5.5% to the World Evangelism Fund, 2.0% to the Pensions Fund, and 2.5% to the Educational Fund. The “offering” is the additional amount, established by each district, for support of district ministries. Since every district is different in constituency, context, geography, history, culture and priority of projects, it is clear that “one size does not fit all”. As I speak with my colleagues I find that districts are setting their “offering” percentage anywhere from 3% to 10% or more. The smallest districts, i.e. with the fewest churches and smallest income, generally are setting a higher percentage. The largest districts, some with significant endowments in place already, can set a smaller percentage. The Chicago Central District is about half the size of the largest districts, and significantly larger than the smaller districts. The District Finance Committee of the Chicago Central has therefore, on my recommendation, established 5% as the percentage requested from each local church toward what we are calling the District Evangelism Fund, a name change reflecting, on the district level, the purpose and intent of the World Evangelism Fund.

In summary then, and in somewhat simplistic fashion, every local church will participate in funding the mission of the church with 15% of their current year’s total income. After the General Board approved the new system, a final change was made, allowing churches to subtract from their “total income” the funds they were giving to the WEF and to other 10% Approved Missions Specials. This provides an “adjusted total income” or “net base” figure, which further lowers the real contributions to the four funds to approximately 14.3% of each church’s total income, rather than 15%. The more a church gives to WEF and Missions Specials, the lower their percentage of assigned giving. It is conceivable that if a church were to intentionally give significantly more than the assigned to missions, it could end up being assigned 13% or less in allocations for the year.

While this could be seen by some churches as a welcome financial relief, it should be pointed out that the main reasons for the change are to provide a system that is easier to explain to our people (because it used an understood concept of tithes and offerings), that calls for equal sacrifice (not equal giving) from all our congregations, and that allows the local churches to give greater direction to the use of their missions dollars.

I want to ask pastors and congregations to continue to plan their budgets using the parameters I have suggested during my tenure. 20-30-50. 20% for others, 30% maximum on our buildings, and 50% for local ministries. If you will keep to the “20% for others” plan, and your assigned apportionments are approximately 14%, you have a full 6% of your annual income that you will be able to direct toward missional projects that the Lord lays on your heart. Of course, in order to give you some help in that area, in your delegate notebooks, and on the district website, you will find a list of several projects that the Lord has laid on our hearts already.

For some of our larger churches, you will be able to take that 6% and plant another church or take a Work and Witness team to build a church building, hospital or clinic, or endow a scholarship or contribute to a district mission endowment. Let me encourage you to have your local pastor, board and local NMI work closely with the Global Mission Office, the District Ministry Center and the District NMI leadership as your church decides on missional projects you will sponsor. It is always best to consult with “the forces on the ground” to get the best understanding of what a successful jointly coordinated strategy could look like.

Some Missiological Principles As we look at our challenges and opportunities, this is probably the appropriate place in

my report to remind you of some missiological principles and practices that we have implemented on the Chicago Central District.

(1) The first is this. While there may be occasions where no sponsor for a new work may be

found, and the district leadership may need to take greater responsibility in supervising a new work, as a general policy we think…

churches should plant churches, rather than the district planting churches.

Page 66: Chicago Central District 2010 : 106th Annual Assembly Journal

65

(2) The second is this. It has been a very clearly articulated goal of mine with the District Advisory Board, that as we raise funds from local churches in support of the District Evangelism Fund, I would like to see

at least half of the District Evangelism Fund monies go directly to missional projects, such as the planting of new churches.

The bringing together of these two concepts, resulted in the practice of establishing missional partnerships between the district and her local churches. The idea is basically this: If a local church has a missional vision to establish a new work (whether that be a new church in another community or city, or a new worship service/ministry for a new people group that would be part of the existing church), and provided that the DAB approved the ministry plan and the cash flow adequate, the district would return to the local church 50% of their District Evangelism Fund giving, for the purposes of funding that mission project. Most of these partnership agreements would be 3-year arrangements.

The implementation of these partnerships has allowed us to work with Chicago First Church in their return to the city of Chicago and the wonderful ministry that takes place in the Austin neighborhood, led by site pastor Ron Allen. It has allowed Kankakee First Church to begin a Hispanic ministry. It has allowed Joliet First Church to establish a new church in Morris, Illinois.

It is my intent to continue to work with the District Advisory Board and our churches in continuing these missional partnerships.

Let me make a couple of comments about the implications of the new system of “Funding the Mission”.

First, just for informational purposes, you need to know that the new system means that both the WEF and the DEF will receive significantly fewer dollars from the local churches. In the case of the WEF we are talking about a cut of some $13 million or more. WEF is the lifeline that keeps missionaries like our own Lisa Lehman, and Todd and Brittany Leslie, Ruthie Cordova and Russ and Donna Lovett on the field. In the case of the district, it means we will need to operate in the new year with almost $100,000 less than we did last year. That is almost a 20% cut for us, leaving us with a budget of $550,000 for the year.

Second, I like the new system, because it is easy to explain, and it is easier for churches to comply with because it is based on the churches’ current reality, not last year’s reality.

Third, even though I like the new system, I think it is important to understand that it does not necessarily reflect better theology than the previous system, nor is it even accurate to say that it is “a biblical system”. To do so would reflect a misunderstanding of the biblical tithe systems (for example, did you know that oftentimes, multiple tithes were required in biblical times, so that giving of the tithes could mean 40% or more?). Nor was the tithe ever applied to anything like a denominational system in biblical times. So, I urge you to not refer to the new system as a “biblical system”. Our explanation uses biblical terminology, but that is about the extent of it. Tithing and giving of offerings are historical biblical practices of believers, and they are the means we expect believers to use in support their local pastors and church ministries. The denomination has simply chosen to use that same concept of tithes and offering to explain the minimum expectation of the participation by the local church in the funding of the global mission of Christ.

Finally, because, the funds being requested of local church in support of ministry at various levels of the church are more limited than under the prior system, it is absolutely critical that every church comply 100% every year as the Lord provides for them. To not do so, will mean the church will be severely limited in its attempts to recruit, train and deploy workers for the Harvest fields. Why should we pray for workers for God’s Harvest fields, if we cannot send them to those fields when they report for duty?

At both the district and global levels, the church is practicing austerity. We are not giving raises to staff, we are not replacing staff we lose through attrition. We are asking fewer people to do more in service to the church. We have put out a call for more volunteers. We have cut expenses just about everywhere we know we can cut without severely damaging the effectiveness of the church. And I believe God will honor those efforts. I believe our churches will come through. And here’s why I believe that.

Page 67: Chicago Central District 2010 : 106th Annual Assembly Journal

66

In the most challenging economic times we have experienced during my tenure, and with one of our pastors telling me almost half of his congregation was out of work, here is what our churches across the district did this year as they gave to fund the global mission of Christ through the Church of the Nazarene:

• WEF – Our local churches gave $779,000 (92% of the goal) • 10% Missions Specials – Our local churches gave an additional $374,000 (including

$50,000 for Haiti relief) • Total giving for Missions -- $1,153,000, another year of giving over a million dollars for

missions, our ninth consecutive year to do so! • District, ONU, Pensions are very close to the 90% payment level.

That is just outstanding!!!! Way to go Church!! Way to go God!!!

Opportunities for the Good News in Bad Times In the midst of the economic crisis, and at times because of the economic crisis, doors of

opportunity are opening . Challenging times often bring a spiritual awareness and sensitivity, that provide fertile soil

for Good News, for the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This is what I experienced as a missionary in Colombia in the 1980s. During perhaps the most tense and dangerous days experienced by that South American country, in a social environment ruled by the terrorism and chaos launched by the drug cartels of Pablo Escobar and the Rodriguez brothers, the Church of the Nazarene grew from 12 churches to over 100 churches in the span of less than 10 years. Christians became strong in their faith, not because it was easy being a Christian. Quite the contrary, we were often targeted because of our faith. But it was Christ who helped us make sense out of chaos, and gave our lives meaning and purpose, when society put a price tag of $5 on a human life. Christ gave us personal and corporate peace in a time when terror reigned over an entire country.

In this country, now in our times, the economic challenges are affecting every kind of institution, and that is opening doors for the Gospel. In the city of Chicago, I have found, many schools have offered after-school programs that were government funded, and were not faith based programs. At the same time a group of young Christian college graduates have offered themselves to conduct faith-based after school programs. They have not always found an open door. But as government funds dry up, those programs are being dropped, and schools are now opening their doors to faith-based groups who will step in and fill the gap for their students. These are certainly times of great opportunity in the public schools, not only in Chicago, but across our district.

I remember a conversation several years ago with Dr. Tom Nees, then director of the USA/Canada Mission Strategy Office. We were talking about the statistical records the church keeps, and I remember saying to him, “I think the church is failing to count some things that really matter. We know how many members we have and what our attendance is, but do we know how many people are getting saved in our churches, and how many are being baptised?” I am delighted that the church is now counting conversions and baptisms, and this has been an outstanding year in both areas for us. Some of our smaller churches are reporting over 20 baptisms this year! We report 492 New Nazarenes by profession of faith alone this year, and our total membership on the district is just shy of the 10,000 mark at 9,991, our highest ever! Could 2010 be the year we surpass 10,000?

Our worship and Sunday School attendance is down very slightly from last year, (Worship at 7745 compared with 7752 in 2009, and SDMI Attendance at 5,082 compared with 5, 151 last year), and I encourage every church and pastor to give careful attention to initiatives at fomenting regular attendance. Some churches that currently house only one worship service should seriously consider starting a second service to reach a different group of people. SDMI chair Cindi Schimmelpfennig found additional responsibilities in the local church necessitating her stepping down as SDMI Chair. Tomorrow, assembly delegates will be electing a new chairperson, and I look forward to working with our SDMI on initiatives to strengthen our Sunday

School and Discipleship Ministries. Let me ask you again, “Who are you discipling? And who is discipling you?”

Opportunities for Church Extension Regardless of the times, the Church has always been about Good News. Good News in

times of loss. Good News in times of personal transitions. Good News in times of uncertainty. As the Good News is preached, opportunities for church extension are created.

This year I was privileged to formally organize two congregations, whose communication of the Good News has resulted in the formation of two fellowships of faith, where the Word is preached regularly, where Holiness is taught, where missional values are instilled, and where pastoral care is provided.

The first of these was in the city of Morris, Illinois. a wonderful celebration took place yesterday in Morris, Illinois, as we formally organized the Living Water Church of the Nazarene, with 47 charter members, and Pastor Steve Cook as pastor/church planter.

Living Water is the only Church of the Nazarene in Grundy County, Illinois, and Morris is the county seat, with a population of 12,000. In 1944 the Nazarenes organized a church in Morris with six charter members. Its ministry continued until 2000, when it became obvious that a different vision, leadership and approach to ministry were going to be needed for the new century. The church was declared inactive in 2000 but Morris always remained on our list of target sites for the start of a new church. We waited for the Lord to indicate the right timing, the right church planter, the right mother church, and the right approach. About three years ago, conversations began to take place between district superintendents and pastors of the Chicago Central and Northwest Illinois districts. We agreed that we both had churches close to Morris that could encourage and contribute to a new church plant. From Ottawa First Church, on the Northwest Illinois District, came the church planters, Steve and Marianne Cook, with the blessings of Pastor Brian Wangler. Steve and Marianne had formerly been members of the CCD. On the Chicago Central District, Joliet First Church and Pastor Mike Day took on the responsibility of the mother church. Pastor Kevin Ulmet provided direction in the NewStart processes that were adopted for the project. The DS and District Advisory Board have given guidance and encouragement along the way, as well as returning half of Joliet First Church's district apportionment to them for this church plant. During the three year period, the new congregation made several moves between facilities (strip malls, high school auditoriums, rented church buildings) and now are leasing a beautifully renovated space that is shared by several community outreach ministries. I wish you all could have experienced first-hand the wonderful spirit of celebration of God's faithfulness. As Pastor Steve reminded us all... "To God be all the glory!" With the organization of this new church in Morris, we will be formally "disorganizing" the inactive Morris First Church, and we commission Living Water with the primary responsibility for communicating the holiness message throughout Morris and Grundy County, seeking life transformation and community transformation through every means possible. Would you welcome Pastor Steve Cook and Living Water Church of the Nazarene?

The second of these church organizations took place in Waukegan, Illinois. This story is one that began nearly 25 years ago. I remember that our Hispanic work had just begun, and there were several Hispanic brothers and sisters who testified to a call to preach. With the permission of the district superintendent, Dr. Keith Bottles, and of the ONU President, Dr. Leslie Parrott, three of us, yours truly, Dr. Alfaro, and Rev. Charles Roberts (then pastor at Lombard and a former missionary to Chile) established a Spanish language ministerial training program, that continues to this day. Among the early students was a man by the name of Diomedes Franco. When Joan and I accepted an overseas missionary assignment, we lost track of Diomedes, and the Lord led his ministry elsewhere. A few months ago, I was preaching a missions emphasis service at our Mt. Prospect International Church. A wonderful meal followed, and Joan and I were joined at the table by Pastor Lechuga, and a guest, Pastor Diomedes Franco. Pastor Franco shared his journey with me and indicated the Lord had helped him start a church where he was preaching Christian holiness and instilling missional values. They had not affiliated with any denomination and he wanted to bring them home, to his spiritual home, the Church of the Nazarene. I asked Pastor Lechuga to meet with the congregation on my behalf, and Pastor Jerry Harris, of our Waukegan church offered some membership classes, and on May 23, Pentecost

Sunday, we celebrated the birthday of the church by organizing the newest church on the Chicago Central District, the Casa de Dios (House of God) Church of the Nazarene. Would you welcome Pastor Diomedes Franco and the Casa de Dios Church of the Nazarene today?

Committing Long-Term to the Challenges and Opportunit ies Just as we celebrate new ministries, new churches and new opportunities, we also

celebrate a few individuals who model for us long-term commitment to facing challenges and embracing opportunities:

Three 25 year veteran pastors: Jack McCormick (June), Jose Alfaro (August), Debora White (September)

Two 52 year veterans: Jim and Pat Hair.

Responding to Challenges and Opportunities through the Mission Areas and MAADS

A few years ago, I proposed to the District Advisory Board the establishment of a system that would accomplish at least three things: First, allow me to reproduce myself as a district leader, by investing time and resources into key pastors who have much to offer our district, but for whom we had not created an avenue for greater service at the district level. Second, it would allow me to respond more immediately and personally to the needs of churches and pastors, by putting “forces on the ground” across the district, at times and in places where I could not be present simultaneously. Third, it would allow for greater fellowship and communication at the level of what we have called “Mission areas”.

I want to thank my Mission Area Assistants tonight, and also recognize those who have been approved to help me in this new year: Rev. Jack McCormick (South Mission Area), Dr. Ed Heck (Central and South Suburban Mission Area) and Rev. Kevin Ulmet (Suburban Area). Along with these Rev. Wilfredo Canales assists me with Hispanic ministries and Rev. Tim Mercer with Asian Ministries. Would you express your appreciation to these?

Now, you may think that this group is all work and no play. Actually we really enjoy other, and are even given at times to attempting some sort of athletic event. Pastor Jack showed up at ONU’s 2009 Homecoming to run the Wendy Parsons 5-K with me last year (we crossed the finish line together and came in 104th and 105th out of 106 I think, but we finished!). But this month, even as we celebrate the winning of the Stanley Cup by the Chicago Blackhawks, there is another Cup in contention. It is the World Cup of Soccer, being played out in South Africa. Now, Brother Tim Mercer was off in Thailand when this group of district leaders got together for a friendly match of soccer, but, lest you doubt our athletic abilities, I put together a brief video for you of our recent scrimmage.

[A brief humorous video was shown here.] The continuing development of the MAADS system is also creating more opportunities for

your DS to lead the district in new initiatives in areas where our presence is obviously absent. I would point out to you that the western suburban corridor that includes Geneva, St. Charles, is in need of a Nazarene presence. The city of Watseka is currently being served by churches in Gilman, Milford, Sheldon and Hoopeston. I encourage those churches to continue to reach into this county seat with vision and commitment. Lake County and McHenry County need expanded ministries. Vermillion and Kankakee County churches need to continue to expand their compassionate ministry efforts. Our Arabic ministries need more direction and the recruitment of pastoral leadership. Our Lao ministries continue to dream of an additional site that will allow them to increase effectiveness. Our Hispanic pastors in training need placement and mentoring. The list of opportunities for your DSs involvement goes on.

And then, how can we forget the Windy City itself? When Joan and I were called to serve you, and we were praying about our response, I asked you the question, Why do you want the Wilsons? The response we heard was, “we believe God wants to use you to help the Nazarene church and the Chicago Central District return to the city of Chicago.” Now, we never really left the city of Chicago altogether, but let me paint some broad brushstrokes for you of our story in Chicago.

Opportunities for the Church in the City of Chicago Both the Chicago Central District and Chicago First Church were established in 1904 by

Dr. Phineas Bressee. During its first few months of existence, Chicago First Church met in a tent in the southside Woodlawn neighborhood, at the intersection of 62nd and what is now University Ave.. The winter cold forced them to look for, and to purchase, a building at 64th and Eggleston in the Englewood neighborhood. They soon outgrew that building, as they reported over 400 members and 200 in Sunday School attendance at the end of their first year. That was 1905. Chicago First Church was later responsible for helping start a number of other churches in the city of Chicago, in the surrounding suburbs and even in Hammond, Indiana.

By 1907, Chicago Second Church and the Chicago Swedish Mission are on the scene. The Swedish mission is short-lived and by 1910 only Chicago First and Chicago Second remain, until 1913 when Chicago Second is closed and First Church stands alone in the city for more than two years.

In 1918 Rev. W.G. Schurman is called to pastor Chicago First Church, and during his14 years of leadership, until the Lord called him home, he emphasized church extension. By 1920 Chicago Morgan Park and Chicago Woodlawn are added to the list of city churches. By 1930 Morgan Park is closed but Chicago Austin, Northside and Roseland are added, giving us five churches in the city. Roseland is the church that gave the denomination General Superintendent Paul and Connie Cunningham and Africa Missionaries John and Linda Seaman. By 1940, the number of churches totals 8. By 1950 the number is 12, although two did not report to the assembly. By 1960 the number drops to 9. By 1970, 8 churches remain. By 1980, Chicago First Church has moved to the suburb of Lemont and five small Nazarene churches remain in Chicago, with a total membership of 383, less than our total membership at the first anniversary of Chicago First Church. Following the denominational “Thrust to the Cities” emphasis on urban ministry in the mid-1980s, with Chicago selected as the first urban area to receive intense denominational focus and additional resources, several new works are started, many of which would later close, but in 1990 twelve churches are again on our list of Chicago city works. These twelve churches now represent five different language groups and a diversity of recent immigrant waves. By the year 2000 a couple of the smaller groups have closed. One new work gave us a total of 11 congregations in the city. Over the next ten years, while some of the churches have grown and some new works have begun, still other small groups have closed, and…

… today we report 11 Nazarene congregations in the city of Chicago, two of them struggling for their life, and with a total membership among the churches of 658.

What will be the picture of Nazarene ministry in Chicago in 2020? Could we double the number of churches in Chicago to 25? Could we reach a membership level of 2,000, surpassing the historic highs for our ministry in the city? I believe the challenges of the city present incredible opportunities for the church to share the grace and transforming, redeeming power of Jesus Christ. I am full of hope and expectation today for the decade ahead.

Over the past few years, the district has taken deliberate, strategic steps to ensure a more bountiful harvest for the Kingdom in the city of Chicago, as well as across the entire district. We have sought to eliminate the financial liabilities that have held us back, including mortgage payments and a campground that drained more than 25% of our district budget. We have moved the district ministry center from its long-time home in Kankakee County to the near north side of the city of Chicago. We have implemented financial operating policies that allow local churches to more readily sponsor new works. We have given priority to ministerial training through various delivery systems, and we have tried to develop district awareness of the great diversity of populations that exist both in the city of Chicago and across our entire district.

Just a few weeks ago, Joan and I came to the conclusion that the “fulness of time”, the Kairos of God, had come for us to finally make the move ourselves to the city, and we have chosen to rent a small, one bedroom condo in the heart of the downtown loop area, while keeping our Bourbonnais home as a base for our family and for use during the many events in which we participate in the Kankakee area throughout the year. Bourbonnais is also a good mid-way stop-over point during those trips from those wonderful but late night Danville meetings back to

Chicago.. Our move to Chicago is a significant commitment for us, as it includes challenging implications for our family life, for Joan’s work, and for our personal finances. The opportunities the move provides, however, and the doors it is already opening, are dramatic. Already, we have met dozens of new people within a couple of blocks of our new home. Already, Joan has found a place to continue her ministry to patients through a dialysis clinic in the southwest neighborhoods of Pilsen and Little Village. Half a block from our city home we can board the CTA trains for any of seven different lines, taking us to every corner of the city as we ask God to show us where to plant our district congregation. We would be humbled and pleased if you would commit to praying for us as we make this personal transition, in fulfillment of the call you made to us 13 years ago. We believe this is God’s Kairos time for us.

Kairos -- The Fulness of Time Kairos (καιρός) is a Greek word meaning “the right or opportune moment” (or the

supreme moment). The ancient Greeks had two words for time, chronos and kairos. Chronos generally refers to sequential time, while kairos refers to a time in between, a moment of undetermined period of time in which something special happens.

For those of you who are biblical scholars and exegetes, let me be sure and clarify that the distinction between kronos and kairos is not as simplistic as I have just made it sound. In fact, Gal. 4:4, says “But when the time had fully come, God sent his Son...” One would expect the Greek word here, translated “the fullness of time”, to be the word kairos, but in fact it is chronos, so sometimes chronos also means “God’s right time”. Having made that disclaimer, however, would you give me some poetic license this evening and allow me to refer in general fashion to God’s kairos, as the fullness of time, and chronos as chronological time?

It is kronos-time to which we refer as we have celebrated, during this past few years, the various centennials of the Chicago Central District and Chicago First Church in 2004, and of Olivet Nazarene University in 2007, of the Church of the Nazarene as a denomination in 2008, of the Burnham plan for Chicago in 2009, and of the Boy Scouts of America in 2010.

I rather like the annual theme of the Boy Scouts of America, who are celebrating their centennial this year – “Celebrate the Adventure – Continue the Journey”. That speaks to me of perseverance, and of commitment. The Boy Scouts motto speaks to the church as well at this moment “Be Prepared”.

Today and tomorrow, during our Annual District Assembly, we certainly celebrate the adventure of Christian ministry, and we also commit to continuing the missional journey to which God has called us. And we want to be prepared for the moment God chooses to move in His church and in our mission field.

The word kairos was central to the Sophists, who stressed the ability to adapt to and take advantage of changing, contingent circumstances. Those are certainly the times in which we live. Isocrates writes that educated people are those “who manage well the circumstances which they encounter day by day, and who possess a judgment which is accurate in meeting occasions as they arise and rarely miss[es] the expedient course of action".

According to ancient Greeks, Kairos was the god of the “fleeting moment.” Such a moment must be grasped (by the tuft of hair on the personified forehead of the fleeting opportunity); otherwise the moment is gone and cannot be re-captured (personified by the back of head being bald).

A bronze statue of Kairos is known in literature, made by the famous Greek sculptor Lysipos. It stood at his home with the following epigram carved on the statue:

"Who and whence was the sculptor? From Sikyon. And his name?Lysippos. And who are you? Time who subdues all things. Why do you stand on tip-toe? I am ever running. And why you have a pair of wings on your feet? I fly with the winds And why do you hold a razor in your right hand? As a sign to men that I am sharper than

any sharp edge.

Page 72: Chicago Central District 2010 : 106th Annual Assembly Journal

71

And why does your hair hang over your face? For him who meets me to take me by the forelock.

And why, in Heaven's name, is the back of your head bald? Because none whom I have once raced by on my winged feet will now, though he wishes it sore, take hold of me from behind.

Why did the artist fashion you? For your sake, stranger, and he set me up in the porch as a lesson."

In the time of Augustus, a leading Roman lyric poet by the name of Horace, coined a

phrase oft repeated in our times by all generations. “Carpe Diem”. In Horace, the phrase is part of the longer Carpe diem quam minimecredulapostero – "Seize the day, trusting as little as possible in the future". The ode says that the future is unknowable, and that instead one should scale back one's hopes to a brief future. That is certainly not so for the church of Jesus Christ. While Horace meant to suggest that we should enjoy today because of an uncertain future, the popular and more inspiring translation of the phrase has been “seize the day”. We say to our young people, Carpe Diem, Seize the Day -- Take advantage of the opportunities that are yours today. Make the most of your future by availing yourself of the many options before you now.

Conclusion These are without doubt challenging times, and God has once again proven Himself

faithful. These are also times of incredible opportunity for the Gospel of Jesus Christ. Shall we seize the day, as we see God moving at what He has determined to be the right moment, in His Kairos time?

What’s with this 10-10-10?:

Now, unless you are a child or teen today, then most likely, over the remaining course of your lifetime and mine, there will be only three days, when this kind of sequence of identical numbers will be possible on the calendar: October 10, 2010; November 11, 2011 and December 12, 2012. After that, should the Lord tarry, the next opportunity for such a sequence will be January 1, 2101. Of the three remaining such dates for us in this century, only one falls on a Sunday. October 10, 2010 (10-10-10).

I want to challenge our pastors and congregations to give special emphasis on that day 10-10-10 to call your church to be especially sensitive to the Kairos of God and to “Seize the Day” by re-articulating and renewing the missional commitment of your local church, and by sharing specific plans you have to fulfill the Great Commission in your Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria and the ends of the earth.

Pastors – Take that day to focus on the Missional Vision and Commitment of your local church. Talk to your people about how your church is fulfilling its God-given mission in the contexts of Jerusalem, Judea, Samaria, and the ends of the earth. Remind your church of the core values of the Church: Christian, Holiness, Missional. Remind your church that we are a Connectional Church. I would challenge you to three 10s:

• Give Ten Percent for Global Missions • Have Every Member of your Church Praying for Ten People who Need Jesus. • Strive for an Increase of at least Ten in Sunday School Attendance over the next ten

months.

At the District Level I’d like to see us take in new members on that day, and surpass 10,000 in membership for the first time in our history.

On that date, 10-10-10, I want to make a commitment at the district level, specifically with reference to the mission field which is the City of Chicago. Today, in the presence of our general superintendent, I want to make a public commitment. On 10-10-10 you will find this servant of the church, in the city of Chicago, and the district will be launching a new work (preferable in

Page 73: Chicago Central District 2010 : 106th Annual Assembly Journal

72

partnership with a local church), in the neighborhood to which God chooses to lead us, with the church planters God provides, and with the resources He makes available to us. I anticipate that new work to be one of many the Lord will help us begin in Chicago in the coming decade. And as long as God gives us health and life and a specific call to the city, I commit to leading the Chicago Central Nazarenes in claiming the city of Chicago for Christ. While there may be other Christian churches in Chicago, Chicago needs the message of holiness that is our watchword and song, clearly re-articulated, expressed, and lived out incarnationally, in a way that makes holiness relevant and a force for transformation in the context of this city.

So, Mr. DS, this is your night to share your vision. What is it, then, that you see?

I see a mission field that extends from Danville to Zion, Illinois, and along the way includes the 3 million people living in the city of Chicago. I see a district with solid fiscal, organizational, and missional foundations in place to be useful to God in His way, and in His time. I see a God who has been faithful in helping us meet and overcome the challenges of our times in an awesome and amazing way. I see a people fully committed to being Christian, Holiness and Missional, who expectantly look for a movement of God.

I see us being about the Missio Dei, the mission of God, in times of challenge and opportunity, ready for the Kairos of God, ready for the opportunities God brings us in “the fullness of His time”. I see us stripped of the liabilities and limitations that tend to hold us back. I see us having our lamps lit and trimmed, ready should He choose to come even at night. I see us living in holy expectation of the breaking in of God’s Spirit in our midst.

These things do not come, except through prayer and fasting, my brothers and sisters. And… in the fullness of time, in the Kairos of God… He will come. Perhaps it will be on 10-10-10. Perhaps it will be before then. Perhaps it will be at another time. Whenever He determines to be the fullness of time, let us seize the day!

Respectfully submitted,

Brian E. Wilson

1. The Stewardship of Christ-like Disciples We, your Finance Committee, believe stewardship is a vital ingredient of Christ-like

discipleship. We further believe obedience is necessary to Christ’s command – to go, to be, and to do. This report reflects:

• Faith – in God and in the members of the Chicago Central District. • Missional Planning – while some funds will go to maintenance ministries, the

majority of our funding is designated for evangelism, discipleship and church planting efforts.

• Responsibility -- to God and to you who consistently support the local church. • Fairness – budget apportionments are assigned in equitable fashion (equal

sacrifice, not equal amounts) and matching funds made available in a manner consistent with the financial strength of the local church.

• Appreciation – the record of faithful and generous giving by Chicago Central District Nazarenes is a cause for rejoicing.

We acknowledge that managing, disbursing, and accounting of funds given to the building of God’s kingdom is a matter deserving our most prayerful planning. After careful consideration, we submit the following recommendations:

2. Funding the Mission through the “Tithe and Offering” Concept

Throughout the year, in response to the Great Commission and the Great Commandment, the local churches of the Chicago Central District contribute corporately to ministries and to the life of the church outside of the local context. Contributions are made to four separate funds with specific purposes reflected in the names of the funds:

• The World Evangelism Fund – This fund helps make possible the global evangelistic work of the church in over 156 world areas, supporting missionaries, schools, hospitals, clinics, compassionate ministries, as well as regional and global ministry center operations.

• The Pensions and Benefits Fund – This fund helps fulfill the promises made to our retired ministers, evangelists, and other clergy, of a basic retirement benefit.

• The Educational Fund – This fund provides scholarships for Nazarene students at Olivet Nazarene University.

• The District Evangelism Fund – This fund helps make possible the evangelistic work of the church in 11 ½ counties of northeast Illinois, supporting the planting of new congregations, ministerial training, missional partnerships with local churches, district ministry center operations and our district support personnel.

Page 79: Chicago Central District 2010 : 106th Annual Assembly Journal

78

In addition, “Ten Percent Approved Missions Special” offerings are often taken for special purposes such as LINKS, Alabaster, Missionary Deputation, Jesus Film/Harvest Partners, Work and Witness, and more. Annual offerings are also received for the support of Nazarene Bible College and Nazarene Theological Seminary

Monies sent for the WEF and P&B Fund are sent to the Global Treasurer’s Office. Monies for the DEF and Educational Funds are sent to the District Treasurer. Monies for NBC and NTS are sent directly to those institutions.

In order for churches to equally share the responsibility for funding the mission of the church and for planning and communication purposes, the concept of “a tithe and offering” is used for determine the amount assigned to each church. Just as the member of the local church would give a tithe and offerings to his local church, the local church in turn gives a tithe and offering for the broader ministries of the church. Within this “tithe and offering” concept, the “tithe” provides funds for three of the four funds listed above (WEF, P&B and Educational). The “offering” provides funds for the District Evangelism Fund [Note that the designation “offering” does not imply “optional”, it simply differentiates this percentage from the “tithe”].

The “tithe” is further specifically allocated. At the 2009 meeting of the General Board, the global church adopted a uniform percentage for giving to the WEF by all local churches of the Nazarene – 5.5%. In conjunction with that decision, the USA national board adopted 2% for Pensions and Benefits and 2.5% for the Educational Fund. These three percentages total 10%, the commonly accepted standard percentage for the practice of tithing in the church.

Since every district is unique, with unique financial needs, the percentage to be given to the District Evangelism Fund is established by each individual district. This “offering” percentage on the district is to be established by the District Finance Committee, upon recommendation by the District Superintendent and District Advisory Board, for approval by the District Assembly. On the Chicago Central District, this percentage is hereby established at 5% for the 2010-11 fiscal year, to be reviewed on an annual basis by the District Superintendent, the District Advisory Board and the District Finance Committee.

3. Estimating Allocations under the “Tithe and Offering” Concept

The “tithe and offering” is given on the basis of the current month’s income in the local church. Therefore, the actual dollar figure for allocations cannot be precisely established at the outset of the fiscal year. However, an estimate can be made in the following way.

Project the total income of your local church. Income is defined as anything for which your church could issue a charitable contribution receipt, including designated giving to special projects. It does not include rental income (as from a church school), or pass-through monies (such as registration monies for summer camps).

Deduct from the total income the amount you project the church will give to the WEF and Ten Percent Approved Missions Specials during the current year. This yields an “Adjusted Total Income” figure (ATI). Then, multiply that ATI by the percentages for each fund, indicated below. This will yield the annual amounts you may use as estimates:

• The World Evangelism Fund, ATI x 5.5% = ________ • The Pensions and Benefits Fund, ATI x 2.0% = _______ • The Educational Fund, ATI x 2.5% = _______ • The District Evangelism Fund, ATI x 5.0% = _______

An online calculator is available at www.fundingthemission.org to help you with your calculations. The same website also includes much more detail on the “tithe and offering” concept, other resources and Frequently Asked Questions.

It should be noted here, that new works that are not yet organized are expected to begin tithing on their income monthly even as the work begins. District and other subsidy monies are not subject to the tithe. New works that are not yet organized and which have been in existence for less than three years are not expected to participate in the DEF “offering”, but are certainly encouraged to do so as soon as they can.

4. Where and When to Send Monies

Monies should be sent by the local church either weekly, bi-weekly or monthly. This helps fund the various ministries in a timely fashion, and avoids putting the local church in a position where it finds it difficult to “catch up” later in the year.

Monies sent for the WEF and P&B Fund are sent to the Global Treasurer’s Office, PO Box 843116, Kansas City, MO 64184.

Monies for the DEF and Educational Funds are sent to the District Treasurer, PO Box 218, Bourbonnais, IL 60914.

Monies for NBC are received in October and sent directly to Nazarene Bible College, 1111 Academy Park Loop, Colorado Springs, CO 80910.

Monies for NTS are received in January and sent directly to Nazarene Theological Seminary, 1700 East Meyer Boulevard, Kansas City, MO 64131.

Remittance Forms and other resources are available on the global church website www.nazarene.org (access the General Treasurer’s site) and on the district website www.ccdnaz.org under the Links and Downloads tab.

5. Financial and Operational Recommendations to the Local Church and District

5.1. Regarding the Global Church

5.1.1. That the World Evangelism Fund for our district be set at 5.5% of the Adjusted Total Income of the local church.

a. Because full payment of the World Evangelism Fund is the lifeline of our World Mission efforts, we urge each local church to give priority to the 100 percent payment of the World Evangelism Fund over other mission specials. A “World Evangelism Church” recognition will be made of local churches that give 5.5% of their income to WEF.

b. That each church give at least 10 percent of its income to the World Evangelism Fund and Approved Mission Specials (including District-approved NewStart and Missional Projects).A “Mission 10 Church” recognition will be made of local churches that give 10 percent or more of local church income to WEF and Approved Mission Specials and that also reach giving goals for Pensions and Benefits, educational institutions, and district support.

c. In support of the General NMI strategy to use overpayment of the WEF to enter new world areas, we encourage our local churches to overpay their WEF. All funds generated from overpayment of WEF by local churches will be directed to efforts at entering new world areas, whether the district reaches 100 percent payment or not. A “World Evangelism Church of Excellence” recognition will be made of local churches that pay 5.7% of their income for WEF, or who overpay their 5.5% WEF allocation by $1,500, whichever amount is less.

5.1.2. That the Pensions and Benefits Fund be set at 2% of the Adjusted Total Income of the local church.

5.2. Regarding our Educational Institutions

5.2.1. That our Olivet Nazarene University Fund be set at 2.5% percent of the Adjusted Total Income of the local church.

5.2.2. That each local church participate in matching funds and other development, scholarship and capital campaign programs for Olivet.

5.2.3. That each local church receive a special offering for Nazarene Bible College on NBC Sunday in October of each year and for Nazarene Theological Seminary on Seminary

Sunday in January of each year. The goal for each of these offerings is $1 per member on the church membership list.

5.3. Regarding the Chicago Central District

5.3.2. That health insurance for full-time district employees be paid in full from their respective operational budgets.

5.3.3. That the Social Security for the full-time district employees be paid and/or reimbursed from their respective operational budgets.

accountant compile and/or review the books of all treasurers handling district funds, with a full audit conducted at least every four years.

5.3.8. That the District Advisory Board shall be responsible for reviewing, approving and monitoring all district operational budgets and adjusting funds as necessary. This shall include budgets submitted by the NYI, NMI, and SDMI chairpersons, and the District Superintendent. Budgets shall be approved no later than 30 days before the beginning of the assembly year.

5.3.9. That a copy of this report be e-mailed to all local church treasurers.

5.4. Regarding the Local Church 5.4.1. Relative to accounting for funds:

a. That each local church include in their income, tithes, offerings, and all other sources of income to the extent it pays local church expenses, including the payment of assigned apportionments and mission specials. For “Funding the Mission” allocation purposes, “income” is defined by the general church as funds for which the church could issue a charitable contribution receipt.

b. That all pastors be reminded of the Manual provisions for the counting and handling of money received (see 2009-2013 Manual page 90, par. 136-136.6) and, where possible, use an independent public accountant for auditing financial reports.

c. That each local church prepare an annual operating budget and send a copy of this budget to the district superintendent no later than May 1, of each year. We encourage churches to refer to the district-prepared sample budgets based on church income (see Appendix B and the district website).

APPENDIX A Pastoral Sabbaticals

Definition

Sabbatical is an extended period of time intentionally set aside by ministry personnel in pastoral relationships as an occasion for reflection, recreation, and revitalization, unencumbered by their usual and customary responsibilities, and yet still receiving their usual remuneration and benefits. Sabbatical finds expression in study, rest, spiritual retreat, and prayer. Sabbatical is not vacation time, not a sick leave, nor a “special studies” leave.

Motivational Bases for the Local Sabbatical Program

The Sabbatical program is motivated primarily by three factors;

1. We believe the Bible identifies a God-designed cycle of work and rest, as exemplified by the account of creation, the institution of the law of the Sabbath, and the accounts of the life of Christ, in which he took time be alone and to be ministered to by God the Father.

2. Research and the reports of those participating in sabbatical programs give evidence to the multiple benefits of such a program to pastors, their families and their congregations.

3. The Manual of the Church of the Nazarene (paragraph 129.10) urges: “In order to encourage a healthy pastoral ministry and the lifelong learning of the pastor, the church board, in consultation with the district superintendent, should provide a sabbatical leave for the pastor following each seven consecutive years of service in one congregation.”

Implementation

1. All senior and associate pastors on the Chicago Central District , who have completed at least seven consecutive years of ministry in their current church assignment, are eligible to participate in the Sabbatical program.

2. The length of time dedicated to sabbaticals, and their design and content, will vary with every church and pastor’s particular situation, and is to be coordinated with the district superintendent.

3. Applications for sabbaticals should be submitted by the local pastor and church board, to the district superintendent, at least 6 months prior to the desired time of sabbatical. The district superintendent will consult with the District Advisory Board and provide an initial response within 4 weeks of the date of submission.

4. There is an expectation of continued service of at least one year following resumption of duties subsequent to the sabbatical.

Guidelines and Ideas

The District Ministry Resource Center has reference material available for pastors and churches to use in designing appropriate sabbatical programs. Application forms, district guidelines and samples of sabbatical proposals will also be available online at the District website: www.ccdnaz.org.

APPENDIX B Sample Budget

The following sample budget depicts a local congregation that raises $100,000 in tithes and offerings in 12 months. It most likely is a church with a worship attendance of around 90-100. The giving for others (14.2%) is the equivalent of 15% the Net Base/ATI.

If the church meets all of these goals of giving for others, it is recognized as a World Evangelism Church. The budget assumes the church has no parsonage, but pays her pastor a housing allowance. Giving only an additional $179.35 to the WEF, qualifies this church for World Evangelism Church of Excellence.

In the sample budget below, the pastor’s compensation package represents about 25% of the total budget. As the church reduces its building indebtedness and capital expenditures (while still properly maintaining the church facilities), additional monies are freed up to enhance the pastor’s compensation package and/or to begin adding some paid staff.

2. Memoirs In Loving Memory

Called of God for the proclamation of the gospel; faithful to God and the church in his service; advanced by God before us to the heavenly city, we acknowledge with grateful hearts and thanksgiving the memory of the following ordained ministers of the Chicago Central District who await our coming: Morris Chalfant.

Our laymen, who have “washed their robes in the blood of the Lamb,” who also were steadfast in the stewardship of serving Jesus, heard His beckoning call: “Be faithful until death, and I will give you the crown of life” (Revelation 2:10).

When, clothed in His brightness, transported, I rise To meet Him in clouds of the sky,

His perfect salvation, His wonderful love I’ll shout with the millions on high.

The 86th District NMI Convention was opened with a welcome from District President,

Rodney Miller. He introduced Associate Pastor of College Church of the Nazarene, Allen Dace, who gave a welcome and invocation.

NPH was not present this year. Mrs. Paula Else presented the local presidents with the order form for the year and explained the new Living Mission Resource. A video explaining the order form and the new materials from NPH was presented.

Andy Holmgren, District NMI Secretary, gave instructions as to who is a member of the Convention. The voting bar was set as the entire sanctuary. The convention sessions were set at 9:00am-11:45am and 12:45pm-adjournment. Xynora Jackson and Skyla Lubben were seated as pages for the Convention.

Alternate delegates were seated without the reading of the names. The following were called as helpers to the President during the Convention: Andy Holmgren, District NMI Secretary; Loris Laci, recording secretary; H. Mark Else, election secretary; John Story, photographer and head usher; Dave Anderson, music and worship.

NMI Director, Daniel Ketchum, sent greetings via video. Greetings were read from Martha Bean, Central USA Representative; Russ and Donna Lovett, missionaries to Nairobi, Kenya; Todd and Brittany Leslie, new missionaries to South Africa; Lisa Lehman, District missionary to Thailand; Ruthie Cordova, San Jose, Costa Rica. District President Rodney Miller directed the secretary to send greetings and our love to these.

The Special Order of the Day was the report of Rev. Rodney Miller. Dr. Brian Wilson introduced Rodney Miller as the District NMI President for the Chicago Central District. Rev. Miller presented the District Council then gave his second report to this Convention. Rev. Miller said we must educate our people – adults, teens, and children. “We must do better!” Rev. Miller emphasized the financial goals and needs for the year. “We must do better!” He emphasized the need for prayer for missions. Rev. Miller asked if we, as a District, are up to the challenge. We need a vision for our area and around the world – to turn our attention away from ourselves and back to God. Rev. Miller’s final thought was “are you going to help me now?” from a story he presented. Rev. Dave Anderson led the congregation in a song.

Dr. Brian Wilson gave a challenge to the Convention and prayed for Rev. Miller, our District, and our world. It was a time of conviction and blessing!

The Convention gave the report of Rev. Rodney Miller a round of applause in acceptance of his report.

Andy Holmgren read the report of the nominating committee. The report was seconded and accepted by the Convention. A board of tellers was called from Pools A and B. The ballot for the election of the District NMI President (yes, no), the District NMI Treasurer (yes, no), and the District NMI Council Ministry Chairpersons was distributed to the members of the Convention. The ballots were collected by the board of tellers. The board of tellers was dismissed to count the ballots.

Dave Anderson and the praise team lead the congregation in worship. It was a time of praising the Lord before missionary speaker, Dr. Gustavo Crocker, gave the message of the morning.

Dr. Crocker said that it was his responsibility to report to us what God is doing. In the Eurasia region this year, 1560 new works were started and 560 new preaching points, which resulted in 502 new churches and 225 ordained elders and we are not satisfied. Building His Church is a partnership: It is His church; all of us are partners with Christ through prayer, giving

of money and ourselves,. Dr. Crocker used Philippians 1:3 -“I thank my God every time I remember you. In all my prayers for all of you, I always pray with joy because of your partnership in the gospel from the first day until now,”

A love offering for Dr. Gustavo was received. Rev. Ho-Kyung Kwak, Chicago 1st Korean, led the congregation in prayer in both English and Korean.

A video from the Church of the Nazarene Foundation was shown. Debbie Hendricks honored Rev. Rodney Miller by, at first, presenting him with some fun

items, but also with a check from the Council. Debbie then gave instructions for lunch. Rev. Rodney Miller made an announcement to meet with the pastors in Room 131 of the

North Campus – College Church of the Nazarene. The Vice President H. Mark Else chaired the convention during the time Rev. Miller met with the pastors.

Rev. Dave Anderson and the praise team opened the afternoon session with singing. Dr. William Bell presented the Memorial Roll in video form. Those who had gone to meet

the Lord in the past year were named with a beautiful musical accompaniment. Dr. Bell prayed, thanking the Lord for the lives that these had and their example even now.

Dr. Bell presented the Memorial Roll program and the Distinguished Award program saying that we should be giving these awards often in our churches. Gifts from the Heart was also emphasized. These are 3 ways we can say thank you to the people who work hard in our churches now and those who have worked hard in the past.

Ken Silvers, Work and Witness Coordinator, presented a video detailing the 2 Work and Witness trips taken to Chile from the Chicago Central District. The video showed a compelling story of what these Work and Witness teams accomplished in building and working with the people to bring them to Christ.

The Work and Witness projects for the coming year are a return trip to Chile and a trip to the Philippines. A PowerPoint presentation gave the details of each trip.

Mr. Dave Manes, our District webmaster, presented the resources that are online and in the packets for the local presidents and churches. Missionaries’ schedules are online and Work and Witness information is also available. Dave Manes gave detailed information about the CDs in the president’s packets.

Mrs. Lauralee Nothstine presented Home Assignment. She asked that we fill up the schedules of the missionaries on furlough. Mrs. Nothstine reminded us that it is biblical for missionaries to come to your church and report what they are doing.

Mrs. Janice Carlson presented LINKS through a video. Our LINKS missionaries for the next two years were shown.

Andy Holmgren, District NMI Secretary, gave the report from the board of tellers. Rodney Miller was elected District NMI president (212 total votes- 206 yes and 6 no); Sandra Story was elected District NMI Treasurer (212 total votes- 208 yes and 4 no)); Prayer Ministry Council member Debbie Hendricks; Discipling Ministry Council member Carla Lovett; Education Ministry Council member Paula Else; Giving Ministry Council member Kathy Yanchick.

Andy Holmgren gave the Standards and Goals Committee Report. He highlighted the Mission Priority One goal stating that if the church cannot afford the missionary books they could use books from other years. He explained the church Report Card to the convention. The goals sheet for this current year was explained.

Mrs. Sandra Story presented the Finance Report and the Auditor’s Report. She highlighted that the overpayment of the World Evangelism Fund would be used to open up new world areas. The report was approved.

A motion was entertained to send greetings and a gift card to our former District Missionary President, Yvonne Chalfant. She has recently lost her husband, “Morrie” Chalfant. The motion was seconded and approved.

The District IMPACT team sang several special songs. This musical group is co-directed by Rev. Sarah Chamberlain and Carrie Chaparro.

Dr. Gustavo Crocker presented the afternoon missionary challenge. Romans 10:11-15 was the basis for his message: the gospel is simple, its simplicity is liberating; the gospel is for everyone; and people must deliver the message - a pedicure system that takes the Good News to others. The Bible tells us “how beautiful are the feet of those who bring good news.”

Rev. Rodney Miller asked Dr. Brian Wilson to come and install the Council members. There was a motion and second to adjourn after the prayer of Dr. Wilson. There was a second and it was approved.

Dr. Brian Wilson thanked the College Church staff for their help then gave a charge to the District Council.

The 86th District NMI Convention was adjourned with prayer by Dr. Brian Wilson. Respectfully submitted, Loris Laci Recording Secretary

2. President’s Report

Dr. Gustavo Crocker, District Superintendent and Mrs. Brian Wilson, Members & Friends of Chicago Central District N.M.I.:

As I stand before you today I feel like starting out with the words the nurse says as she approaches your bed with one hand behind her back: “This won’t take long, but it may sting a little.”

But let me begin by saying that it is, indeed, an honor and a privilege to represent Chicago Central District as your N.M.I. President. In spite of difficult economic times we’ve continued to do our part to make Christlike disciples in the nations, and I stand here today to say, “Thank You” for labors faithfully done.

I am thankful for the support of our District Superintendent and also for excellent leadership that the members of your district council have given. Their attention to detail and prayerful support have made my job much easier than it would have been otherwise. I would like for the council to stand as you hear your name called and let us recognize you for a job well done. And I would ask the congregation to please hold your applause until all have been named.

Let’s express our appreciation to these for their labors of love for the cause of world mission. I. Our Chronicle

Last year’s challenge was built around the four focus points of our ministry: praying, educating, discipling, and giving. To qualify as a Mission Priority One District we need to have 90% of our churches be praying for missions, educating their people about missions and involving their young people in missions. With 59 active churches reporting, our goal is 53 churches. In addition, as a district we must pay at least 90% of our accepted World Evangelism Fund. With an accepted budget of $847,236 our goal is $762,512. Let’s see how we did.

Have we been faithful to ask great things of God? My challenge to you last year was to have 100% of our churches on the district reporting that someone prayed for missions. The reports indicate that 58 of our churches accepted that challenge and had someone who prayed for our missionaries and their work sometime during the year. This represents an increase five over last year! Congratulations on the achieving of this goal

Educating: Only an informed people will be burdened for the work of missions and know how to pray effectively. Educational materials are readily available through the Global Ministries Center, the district NMI web site, and missionaries on home assignment, to say nothing of online resources, your local library and other sources. To reach this goal however, there were four specific areas we asked you to focus on: 1 multi-media mission resources and/or mission publications. These are available

through the Global Ministry Center to the local church, many at no cost. 2 make use of the NMI missionary reading books/tapes/CDs. 3 participate in mission service projects and/or hands-on mission activities. These

include the obvious things like Work & Witness trips, but also other things such as Crisis Care Kits, School Supplies, Volunteering in a Compassionate Ministries Center, etc. And finally,

4 attend a service with a missionary speaker. All of the churches who have a representative here today have already met this fourth requirement! How did we do? I’m sorry to say that only 45 of our churches met the goal of educating

their people about missions. This represents a drop from 53 churches a year ago. This is not acceptable. We must tell the story! Now, I suspect that some of our church who reported they are not educating their people really are, but were not sure what was counted in this category, and decided to err on the side of caution. If you are not sure if you filled this out correctly please talk to me or Paula Else, our secretary for global awareness.

Discipling: This is the involvement and education of our youth and children in missionary work. My friends, our young people will be educated! The question becomes, “By whom?” Will we allow the world to take on this responsibility with its humanistic answers and philosophy? No! The challenge is ours! It is our responsibility! And when we have done our part, and the hearts of our children and youth are tender and open to hear the voice of God, God will continue to call our young people into the work of world evangelism.

Through newsletters, phone calls and emails I challenged the district to have all 59 churches involved in telling the story of world evangelism to our young people. I’m sorry to report that only fifty of our churches feel it is important to disciple our young people. Not only did we fail to reach our goal, but we are reporting four less than a year ago. We must do better in this area.

Giving: When God calls men and women to missionary service, He calls us to support them. In the Church of the Nazarene, financial support is raised through the World Evangelism Fund. This is the lifeline of our missionary program. Our total amount paid for this assembly year is $778,621.73 or 91.9% Although this is an increase of $4,424 our percentage paid is down from 93.1%.

In addition to the World Evangelism Fund our churches supported missions through several offerings collected this year. 43 churches (74%) received an Alabaster offering. 37 churches (64%) paid their LINKS assignment. 30 churches (52%) contributed toward World Mission Broadcast. 35 churches (60%) gave toward the missionary Christmas offering.

Page 93: Chicago Central District 2010 : 106th Annual Assembly Journal

92

10 churches (17%) participated in Work & Witness. 43 churches (74%) gave toward compassionate ministries. 23 churches (40%) received a deputation offering. 9 churches (16%) supported the JESUS film. 26 churches (40%) contributed toward Missionary Health Care.

These offerings contributed another $374,038.29 toward giving to the cause of world missions. When these approved specials are included, Chicago Central District raised $1,152,660.02 for world missions. While we rejoice in the dollars raised, this figure is actually a decrease of $3751 from last year’s totals.

To each of the churches that helped make these accomplishments possible we offer our congratulations. Those churches, and the awards they received are:

Church MPO MPO-Gold AOE Blue Island X Bradley X X Chicago Calvary X X X Chicago First X Chicago Heights X X X Chicago Northside X X Chicago Oak Lawn First X X Danville Cedar Grove X Danville First X X X Danville Southside X X Elgin X X X Gilman X X X Hoopeston Community X X Joliet First X X X Kankakee College X X Kankakee First X Kankakee Westbrook X Kempton X X X Limestone X X Lombard X Manteno X X X Milford X Momence X Mundelein X X Mundelein Spanish X Naperville Trinity X X New Lenox X North Chicago X X Paxton X X Potomac X X Sheldon X X X Waukegan X X Worth X

This has been a year of financial challenges and our churches have felt the loss of

income as jobs have been lost. However, to each church who accepted the challenge and prayed and gave and educated and discipled their youth, even going above and beyond their accepted goal we offer our sincere thanks. There will be souls in heaven because of your sacrifices.

To those churches that gave it their best and fell short in one area or another, hold your head high knowing you did your best. We appreciate all that you did and no one should ever feel

Page 94: Chicago Central District 2010 : 106th Annual Assembly Journal

93

ashamed knowing in their heart they did all they could do. To the eleven churches who gave nothing, shame on you! You couldn’t find one person

to give even $1 for the salvation of lost souls? How will those who are lost in sin’s darkness come to the Light if we don’t accept the challenge to fulfill our commission. This is our reason for being. This is why we exist. We must do better than this. II. The Challenge

There are opportunities all around us, but to achieve our goals we must all do our part. 1 Every church should be praying for missions. 2 Every church should be educating their people about the victories that

are reported as well as the needs that exist on the field. 3 Every church should be discipling their young people, preparing them for

a life of service for Christ and the Kingdom. 4 Every church should give sacrificially for the cause to which Christ has

commissioned us. With the start of this fiscal year we have a new system in place for funding the mission.

Each pastor has been informed and knows the percentage of income that is to be sent to the Global Ministry Center to be used for World Evangelism. However, if each church only does this and no more the loss of income could potentially have dire consequences for our missionary program. I challenge every church to give as a minimum at least what you gave this year. Now is not the time to retrench. Now is the time to go forward. I would challenge each church to continue to give their Faith Promise Offerings and receive a Thanksgiving and Easter Offering, and send these in as offerings over and above the 5.5% taken from the regular income.

My friends, God wants to save the world, but He needs our hands to dig the lost from the rubble of their crushed dreams and broken lives. Christ asks you today, “Are you willing to do your part? Are you willing to help me now?” III. Our Commitment

The cartoon character Pogo once said, “Gentlemen, we’re surrounded by insurmountable opportunities.” I have come to realize how true that is. Most of us spend our time lying in front of closed doors of broken promises and disappointed dreams. We feel sorry for ourselves, wondering why things did not work out like we thought they would, not realizing that the closed door was God’s way of turning our attention to an open door.

There are two things I would suggest, and then I want to close with a true story that I do not think you will ever forget. Here is the first: insurmountable opportunities turn our attention back to God and away from ourselves. They turn our attention back to God and that ignites vision. If there is one thing Chicago Central District must have to step into the future that’s before us, it is vision. A vision for this area immediately, and through this area to other parts of our world. Insurmountable opportunities do that for us. They turn our attention away from ourselves and back to God.

Let me add here that we do not want to limit God and we do not want to miss His plan. He has some things for us that are beyond our comprehension, and so we need to be ready for what that might mean in the future.

Second: insurmountable opportunities force us to trust God completely, and that prompted faith. Walking by faith is not just a nice idea, or one of many options. It is the plan for God’s people. We do not want to question Him, and we dare not doubt His promise. He has given us His word that if we are faithful to Him, and if we walk with Him, and if He remains awesome in our eyes, and if we serve Him in purity and truth, He will open doors that are beyond our comprehension. That is His promise.

Now the story. It was an 8.2 earthquake that flattened cities and towns and killed over 30,000 people in less than four minutes. In the midst of utter destruction and chaos, a father left his wife securely at home and rushed to the school where his son was supposed to be, only to discover that the school building was as flat as a pancake.

After the traumatic initial shock, the dad remembered the promise that he had made to is son. He had said to him, “No matter what, I’ll always be there for you.” Tears filled his eyes as he looked at the pile of debris that was once the school. It looked hopeless. But he kept

Page 95: Chicago Central District 2010 : 106th Annual Assembly Journal

94

remembering his commitment to his son. (And by the way that became at that moment the father’s insurmountable opportunity).

Listen to what he did. He began to concentrate on where he had walked his son to class at the school that morning. Remembering his son’s classroom would be in the right back corner of the building, he rushed there and started digging through the rubble with his bare hands. As he was digging, other forlorn parents started to arrive, and clutching their hearts began to weep and cry – “My son!” “My son!” “My daughter!” Other well-meaning parents tried to pull him off of what was left of the school saying, “It’s too late!” They kept saying, “It’s no use!”

We’re too late! They’re all dead, go on home. Face reality, there’s nothing we can do! You’re just going to make things worse.”

To each parent he responded with the same line: “Are you going to help me now?” And then he proceeded to dig stone by stone.

The fire chief showed up and tried to pull him away from the debris of the school. There were fires breaking out and explosions taking place, and the chief tried to pull him away, telling him, “You’re in danger! We’ll take care of things. You go home.”

And this loving father asked, “Are you going to help me now?” The police then came and said to him, “You’re angry. You’re distraught. By staying here

you’re endangering others. Go on home. We’ll take care of it.” And he replied, “Are you going to help me now?” No one helped. Courageously the man proceeded alone because he needed to know for himself if his

boy was alive or dead. He dug eight hours. Twelve hours. Twenty-four hours. Thirty-six hours. In the thirty-eighth hour of non-stop digging he pulled back a boulder and he heard his

son’s voice. He screamed his son name: “Armand! Armand!” His son responded, “It’s me, Dad!” He said, “I told the other kids not to worry. I told them

that if you were alive you’d save me, and when you saved me they’d be saved too. You promised that no matter what you’d always be there for me! You did it, Dad!”

“What’s going on down there? How is it?” the father asked. “Well, there are fourteen of us left out of thirty-three. We’re scared. We’re hungry.

We’re thirsty. And we’re glad you’re here. When the building collapsed it made a wedge like a triangle and that saved us.”

“Come on out, son!” “No, dad. Let the other kids come out first. I know you’ll get me, no matter what. I know

you’ll be there for me” When I heard that story the first time I thought, first of all, if that ever happened to my

family would I be that faithful to my promises? But then I could not help but focus on our God who is that faithful. Friends, I want all of you to know that our God is faithful. He will keep us. He will use us. We can trust Him. We must trust Him. We must believe that He has for us a vision that will require the kind of faith in Him that is unusual in a day that focuses on closed doors.

Who knows what avenues will open in the future for us? God wants to do something great right here. Will those trying to find their way out of the rubble of their lives find us as faithful as that father was to his son? A closed door here only means an open one there. Don’t hesitate, but take it by faith and move through it, and God will honor that. He will honor that. May all who come behind us find us faithful! Respectfully Submitted, Rodney J Miller, President Nazarene Missions International, Chicago Central District

B. NYI CONVENTION

1. NYI Daily Proceedings Saturday, June 12, 2010

Naperville Trinity Church of the Nazarene

The Chicago Central District NYI Convention convened on June 12, 2010 at Naperville Trinity Church of the Nazarene. The theme this year was “Unbroken”, lining up with the NYC 2011 theme. Registration was from 9:00-10:00 AM with an open service beginning at 10:00 AM. Our service was lead this year by the music group from Olivet “Before Tomorrow,” as well as the speaking of Adam Lewis.

The opening service was a great time to be together, to worship, fellowship and hear an encouraging message. After a short break, the convention was officially called to order when our District President Steve Spangenberg opened in prayer. After the opening, Lamoris Crawford, the representative from Olivet, shared with the students about opportunities at Olivet. Following the presentation from Olivet, Dave Ludwig gave a presentation about camp this summer, being held in Lake Geneva.

The Convention was organized by President Steve Spangenberg and the Board of Tellers was established by acting secretary, Sara Christensen. Scott Sargent served as the Election Chairmen for the ballots. She read and explained the ballot, which included early youth, senior youth, lay leadership, and presidential candidates. The ballot was approved. The delegates voted, and the board of tellers was dismissed.

Michelle Thomas presented the finance report for the year. At the conclusion of her report, the district IMPACT team took the stage to lead us in a brief time of worship under the direction of Sarah Chamberlain. This was Sarah’s first full year as Director of IMPACT. Each District President or Ministry Leader shared the report from their areas of leadership and the motion to accept the reports was held until all reports were shared. The order was as follows:

Sarah Chamberlin IMPACT Scott Christensen Quizzing Tim Britton Events Bill Koch Ministry and training

Enrique Mayen JNI President Steve Spangenberg then concluded the sharing of reports by sharing his

president’s report. His report was encouraging, and shared about the changes NYI has seen over the last four years. Among them were taking the largest group on the region to NYC 07, celebrating the first district convention in the city of Chicago, and partnering with JNI. After the sharing of all reports, a motion was made to accept the reports. The motion passed.

The results of the election ballot were shared by the secretary, Sara Christensen: Early Youth Representatives- Alberto Escobar and Sam Meads. The first alternate is Kori Harris. Senior Youth Representatives- Joe Mantarian and Riley Howe. The first alternate is Chaney Thomas. Lay Leadership-Ray Smith, Christina Fischer and Berto Lopez.

Dr. Brian Wilson was given the opportunity to address the delegation and shared his heart beat for our district and the leadership he sees in all of us to stand up and move forward. A motion was made to adjourn after Dr. Wilson had the opportunity to pray a commissioning prayer for our new District Leadership. The motion passed. Adjournment was at 12:43 PM.

This year’s convention went very well and would be considered a success based on the reports given and the growth in all programs throughout the district.

The Chicago Central District has an awesome District Team who loves the Lord and feels their calling is to reach teens for Christ. We are grateful for a District that supports our youth and God’s leading this past year.

Respectfully submitted, Sara Christensen, Secretary

2. NYI Presidents’ Reports

DP of Administration Report Rev. Wilson, Youth Pastors, Youth Workers, Students, and members of the Chicago

Central District, it is with great excitement that I submit to you my fourth District President of Administration Report. Today we gather together as the body of Christ to celebrate not only what God is doing on our District, but also what He has done and will do in the lives of our students.

Over the last four years, there have been some very visible changes that have occurred in the life of the Chicago Central District NYI.

Some of the highlights include: *Creation of a four person District President structure (we were the second in the denomination and now longest running structure in NYI) *Joining with JNI for a specific partnership with the Hispanic churches on the District *Moving our camp away from Aroma Park Retreat Center *Took the largest group to NYC 07 (St. Louis) on the Olivet Region *Celebrating the first ever District NYI Convention in the city of Chicago *Placed more effort and energy into our most attended events like Snowball *Made the tough decision to remove events from our calendar that were either holding us back or costing us money *Moving from 8th to 6th to 5th back to 6th at Regional Celebrate Life! All of this is only possible with a great district leadership team. I want to say a very

special thanks to the Executive Council members for all of their hard work to keep our District continually moving forward.

Again, I would like to say a special thanks to all of those who have helped serve in the past year.

This has truly been a great year for our district NYI. Not only was this past year a great year, but the last four years have been an incredible journey as well. One of the shifts that we feel is necessary to continue the growth and movement forward as a district NYI is to do a better job of communicating to our local churches. We hope to really amp up and improve our communication effort to each and every local church on our district. Please continue to pray with me that our district NYI will continue to seek God and put Him first.

Thank you for allowing me to serve as your District President of Administration for this past year. Steve Spangenberg District President of Administration

IMPACT Director Report Rev. Steve Spangenberg, Dr. Brian Wilson and members of the Chicago Central District NYI:

This is my first report as the District Impact Director, and my first full year of serving in this capacity. I am truly grateful for the opportunity to be involved with this ministry again this year. It has been such a blessing for me to be able to work alongside of such a remarkable group of young adults. This year’s team consists of 32 students, representing many churches across the district. This year’s goal for Impact has remained the same as in years past and that is to see our teens experience true worship with their peers, develop leadership qualities, find lifelong friends in our district family and minister in song and service to our district. It’s been a good year so far. We have ministered in many churches across the district this year and met many new people including Elvis’ stepbrother and Rod Blagojevich. You never know how God may use you or who He may use you to minister to. Our goal is to always be willing to serve. We are also looking forward to a great tour coming up in just a few short weeks! Please pray with us, that God would use us to minister to each person we may come into contact with. It’s our desire to be used! There are many people I need to thank today. First, I want to express my gratitude to each member of the Impact team. Thank you for your commitment to this ministry and your willingness to serve! You have been such a blessing to me! I also want to thank my co-director, Carrie Chaparro. She has been a tremendous help this year and I am so thankful for her willingness to step up to the plate! I want to thank Dave Anderson for allowing me to not only serve as Impact Director but also for coming alongside of me as I stepped into this role, offering countless hours of help and advice and for all the encouragement! And lastly, I’d like to thank my husband for all of his support and all the time he’s invested into this ministry as well. This would not be possible without you! Thanks for the opportunity! Respectfully Submitted, Sarah Chamberlain

DP of Events Report It has been a pleasure for me to serve as the VP for NYI on the Chicago Central District.

It has been a year marked by many transitions and changes with our events on the district that over the years to come will enable us to better serve our students.

The year began for us with NYI Convention. We met at Chicago First Spanish Church of the Nazarene. We had a great group of students and leaders who joined us for a day of worship, reports, vision and a community outreach block party.

For camp last year we returned to Table Rock Lake in MO for an amazing week at Fun in the Son Camp. Over 150 participants met early in the morning and traveled in charter busses. We arrived at camp ready for an amazing week filled with inspirational worship, challenging teaching and extreme fun on the lake. God’s Spirit moved powerfully and many students sought Him in prayer at the altar. LaMorris Crawford was our speaker for the week and did a wonderful job challenging our students to love Christ and dig into the Word. We will not be returning to Fun in the Son this year but we are excited about our new camp location at Lake Geneva Youth Camp in Lake Geneva WI. Camp will be held July 2-9 and there is still limited space available for more students to attend.

Our biggest event each year continues to be Snowball. This year we returned to the Marriott Hotel in Madison, WI. Matt Hancock did a fantastic job leading this event in his first year as the Snowball Director. Worship was lead by Before Tomorrow from Olivet and our speaker was Jim “Big Chap” Chapman. We had outstanding times of worship that were well received by our students. This year we also changed the location for skiing and moved to Devil’s Head, which enabled us to do daytime skiing. Snowball will take place again on January 21-23, 2011. Mark your calendar now and watch for promotional information in the early fall.

Celebrate Life is another major event for CCD NYI each year. Our district competition was hosted at Chicago First Church of the Nazarene and featured an overnight lock-in filled with worship, sports, talent and fun. An alternate event was held for basketball tryouts at College Church North Campus. Christina Fischer and Bill Koch provided the leadership for this event and did an exceptional job balancing all the details, logistics and communication that this requires. We finished in fifth place at the Regional event on the campus of ONU in May and our students did a great job. Congrats to our soccer team for its first place victory and to our volleyball teams for your strong showing.

As we look forward to the coming year our council will continually strive to resource, equip and empower our local churches as they minister to Junior High and High School students. Our intention with the events on the district is never to simply fill the calendar or entertain our teens. Our goal and intent is to provide atmospheres and opportunities where our students will encounter the God of creation and be drawn deeper into a relationship with Jesus Christ. Thanks to all the youth pastors and dedicated volunteers on our district who are continually investing in this generation of leaders. Grace and Peace Tim Britton CCD NYI DP OF EVENTS

DP of Ministry and Training Report

As the fourth year of serving as your district trainer comes to a close I would like to thank you for allowing me to serve in this capacity. This past year we tried some new things to bring our local youth workers together of various size churches.

In October of 2009 we had fifteen youth pastors and youth workers came together for our district fall retreat where we spent time learning from one another. This year we had two speakers share from their heart what it means to share the love of Christ to our students in our local churches. We had Dwayne Mills our newly elected Regional President share Thursday night, and Mark Holcomb our newly elected Global NYI President share with us on Friday

morning. We also had a great time of fellowship with our wives who joined us for dinner at Wildfire Thursday evening thanks to Olivet Nazarene University who took care of dinner that night. The dates for our 2010 fall retreat are October 14-15, 2010.

In addition to our fall retreat we have met with several youth leaders on our district to help train and develop stronger youth programs. It is exciting to see what God is doing among our district as new leadership is stepping up and filling the gaps where needed. We are excited to see what God has in store for our future as we prepare and plan for Nazarene Youth Conference which will take place in Louisville, Kentucky in 2011. My prayer this coming year is to continue to look for new ways to empower all churches and to continue to grow closer as a district as we reach new students for Jesus Christ.

In closing I would like to thank all the members of the executive council; Steve Spangenberg for all the countless hours of organizing, printing programs and countless phone calls; Enrique Mayen for looking for new and exciting ways of connecting the Spanish churches with our district; Tim Britton for overseeing all the events and making sure they run smoothly. It’s exciting to be a part of a great district. Thank you again for allowing me to serve as your district trainer.

Respectfully Submitted, Bill Koch, DP of Ministry and Training

DP of JNI Report Juventud Nazarena Internacional

My name is Enrique Mayén and it is my pleasure to share with you my first report as District NYI president. I have had the privilege to work as the youth pastor at Mundelein First Spanish Church of the Nazarene and as Senior pastor of the Spanish church in Elgin, Il. Through these 10 years of ministry I have see the hand of God transforming the lives of hundreds of young people, liberating them of different addictions, gangs, restoring their hearts and creating a new future for each one of them.

Thanks to the work of many Hispanic youth leaders of the different Hispanic churches we have been able to witness great testimonies among our young people. It is my desire to continue working among the youth with the objective to lead them to get to know Jesus Christ and to create a character in them such as our Savior’s.

Several workshops took place this year at the different Hispanic churches such as Parents Speak Now, I Love You Too, The Family Attachment, How to Discover my Calling, among others.

Activities which many young people reported were a blessing for their lives also took place during this year. Some of these activities were three lock-in’s two spiritual retreats and a family camp. Many young people consecrated their lives to the Lord during these activities.

Another important aspect to mention is the reintegration of the Hispanic NYI or JNI in Spanish. Thanks to the Lord step by step the communication has been reestablished with the leaders and the pastors of the different Hispanic churches. The objective is to unite our strength to work in unity for the Kingdom of God.

This was a year of transition, adaptation and learning; with the help of God I have been able to familiarize myself with our anglo brothers’ leadership, with the district and as well as with the activities that happen throughout the year.

Create a clearer understanding within the Hispanic leaders about our district, highlighting the benefits that come with being part of a denomination such as ours.

Motivate the Hispanic youth to be a resource and support to the central district. Involve Hispanic churches and other churches with different cultures that are part of our

Central District to expand and be part of the district and JNI activities Create an environment of unity within the different cultures that are part of our Central

District and present a multicultural image to our community. Enable the Hispanic leadership to raise up a new and fresh generation of teens able to

develop a ministry within a city such as Chicago.

It is a privilege to serve Christ in the JNI and to be part of this historic movement that represents the return of the Nazarene Church to the city of Chicago. I am aware of the challenges that are ahead but I believe in a powerful God, a God to whom nothing is impossible and I am more than positive that he will be behind me in every and all activity that the JNI organizes. I thank God and you for putting your trust in me and I hope to God that together we exalt the name of our savior Jesús Christ, To him be the glory for ever AMEN.

Mi nombre es Enrique Mayén y es un placer compartir con ustedes mi primer reporte

como Presidente de Distrito de la JNI. He tenido el privilegio de trabajar como pastor de jóvenes en la primera Iglesia Hispana del Nazareno en Mundelein y como Senior pastor en la Iglesia de Elgin donde se comenzó una nueva Iglesia hispana. A través de estos 10 años de ministerio he podido ver la mano de Dios transformando la vida de cientos de jóvenes, liberandolos de diferentes adicciones, de pandillas, restaurando sus corazones y creando un futuro nuevo para cada uno de ellos.

Gracias a la labor de muchos líderes hispanos y por la gracia de Dios, es que hemos podido ser testigos de grandes testimonios entre la Juventud. Es mi deseo el seguir trabajando entre la juventud con el objetivo de llevarlos a conocer a Cristo y crear un carácter en ellos como el de Nuestro Salvador.

Este año se realizaron varios talleres en las diferentes iglesias hispanas, tales como, Padres hablen ya, I love you too, el vinculo familiar, como descubrir mi llamado, entre otros.

Se realizaron actividades que fueron de mucha bendición para la juventud, entre ellos están tres lock ins, dos retiros espirituales y un campamento familiar; estos fueron de gran bendición, muchos jóvenes consagraron su vida a Cristo Jesús.

Otro de los aspectos importantes por mencionar es la reintegración de la JNI hispana, gracias a Dios poco a poco se han dado pasos donde se ha reestablecido una comunicación sana con los diferentes líderes de las iglesias hispanas, así como con los pastores, con el objetivo de unir las fuerzas y trabajar juntos para el reino de Dios.

Este primer año fue un año de transición, de adaptación y aprendizaje; Con la ayuda de Dios he podido familiarizarme con el liderazgo de nuestros hermanos americanos, familiarizarme mas con el Distrito y así mismo con la actividades que se realizan, y me es grato saber que nuestro Distrito cuenta con excelentes lideres dispuestos a exaltar el nombre de Cristo y que las actividades son de gran bendición para la juventud. He tenido el privilegio de asistir a actividades tales como el Snowball Retreat, Celebrate life, entre otras y ha sido de gran alegría ver a la juventud hispana disfrutar de estos eventos y conocer más a Cristo a través de ellos.

En este periodo 2010- 2011 uno de mis objetivos como presidente de la JNI es el unificar el liderazgo hispano, creando una comunicación sana, así como actividades unidas que edifiquen a nuestra juventud.

Crear una conciencia más clara entre los líderes hispanos acerca de nuestro Distrito, resaltando los beneficios que existen de ser parte de una denominación como la nuestra.

Motivar a los jóvenes hispanos a que sean un recurso y un apoyo al Distrito Central. Involucrar a las Iglesias Hispanas, así como iglesias de otras culturas que forman parte

de nuestro Distrito Central a que asistan y sean parte de las diferentes actividades Distritales que desarrolla la JNI.

Crear un ambiente de unidad entre las diferentes culturas por las que está compuesto nuestro Distrito Central y presentar una imagen multicultural a la comunidad de Chicago y sus alrededores.

Capacitar al liderazgo hispano para levantar una generación nueva y fresca de jóvenes capaces de desempeñar el ministerio dentro de una ciudad cosmopolita como Chicago.

Es para mí un privilegio el poder servir a Cristo en la JNI, y ser parte de este movimiento histórico que representará el regreso de la Iglesia del Nazareno a la ciudad de Chicago. Estoy consciente de los retos que hay por delante, pero creo en un Dios poderoso, un Dios que para EL no hay nada imposible y que estoy más que seguro que estará respaldando cada actividad que se desarrolle en la JNI. Agradezco a Dios y a Ustedes la confianza que han depositado en mi y espero en Dios que Juntos exaltemos el nombre de nuestro salvados Jesucristo, al es sea toda la gloria por siempre AMEN.

C. SDMI CONVENTION Monday, June 21, 2010

Kankakee College Church 1. Proceedings

In the absence of a District SDMI Chair, there was no separate convention activity at District Assembly time in 2010. SDMI business was included as part of the District Assembly.

The District Assembly Nominating Committee presented two names to the District Assembly for election of a new SDMI Chair. The voting resulted in the election of Rev. Michael W. Day, pastor of our Joliet First Church of the Nazarene.

Also elected at District Assembly was lay SDMI Board member, Mrs. Nancy Peeler, wife of our Kankakee Westbrook pastor. She was elected to a two-year term, and joins the following who continue to serve on the SDMI Board: Lay: Tanett Hodge (2011); Clergy: Jeff Hodge (2011) and Lisa Ulrich (2011). The new SDMI Chair and the Board members may appoint other members to serve as directors of various SDMI ministries during the 2010-11 year.

During the District Assembly, District Superintendent Dr. Brian E. Wilson, expressed the deep gratitude of the district for Rev. Cindi Schimmelpfennig, who served as SDMI Chair since 2000?? And who stepped down from the role this year in response to growing local church responsibilities in her role as associate pastor at Kankakee First Church.

2. SDMI Chairperson’s Report

The following is a compilation of the various ministry reports provided by the ministry directors of the SDMI.

Board member Nancy Peeler, reported that, for a second year in a row, the District SDMI has promoted and participated in the Marriage Rendezvous event at Olivet Nazarene University. The next event is scheduled for February 4, 2011.

The Prime Time Ministries directors, Pastor John and Sandra Story, report a good turnout for the 2009 District Prime Time Thanksgiving Banquet, held at the Manteno Church. District Superintendent Dr. Brian E. Wilson was the special speaker, and the Olivetians brought the music. The date for the 2010 Banquet is Tuesday, November 16, 2010, from 11-1 p.m. at the Manteno Church.

Adult Ministries Director, Rev. Michael Day, reports that two motorcycle rides were scheduled but one was cancelled due to weather. Also, two Days at the Range were conducted, with over 75 people being trained in firearms safety. In addition, 16 persons participated in a golf outing supporting the new work in Portage Park. From the District Children’s Ministries Director, Rev. Elizabeth Bidle:

God still speaks! Are we listening? The children of the Chicago Central District are. This past year we have watched God move in exciting ways through the children. In July rookie Camp and Kids Camp moved to a new campground location in Manville, Illinois. Not only did we move physically to a new location but God moved us spiritually as well. During Kids Camp, God came, He spoke, kids and adults alike responded with weeping. Not an emotional experience because others were going to the altar, but the outpouring of the Holy Spirit on everyone present and lives were changed. Kids testified to what God had done for them in those moments, how God had spoken to their hearts and they were going home a new person. These few words cannot begin to express what God did around those altars that week. God still speaks! In the Fall, the kids participated in a Children’s Talent Day, praising God for the gifts and talents they have been given. Thank you to Christina Fischer for directing this event. God gave them gifts, they responded! The Children’s Quizzing kids found themselves marching into battle with Joshua, exploring Judges, and gleaning fields with Ruth under the leadership of Jennifer Love. This fall they will be studying First and Second Samuel. God’s Word is being planted into their lives and they are growing!

“We will not hide these truths from our children; we will tell the next generation about the glorious deeds of the Lord, about his power and his mighty wonders.” Psalm 78:4 In July 2009, the summer’s camp ministry began. Rev. Caley Spangenberg directed

Rookie Camp and Rev. Beth Bidle directed Kids’ Camp. Both camps were held at Manville Campgrounds on the Northwest Illinois District.

VII. Financial and Statistical

A. DISTRICT TREASURER Dr. Duarte, Dr. Wilson, and members of the assembly:

The fiscal year for the Chicago Central District was from May 1, 2009 to April 30, 2010. I am pleased to report today of God's faithfulness through this past year and share some highlights that have been made possible by your congregation's dedication to the local and global mission of the Church of the Nazarene via the Chicago Central District. 1. Audit

The district financial statements were analyzed this year by external auditors as a compilation in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. We continue with the cycle of having a full audit every four years, with compilations in intermediate years.

The property additions and improvements listed in the asset section of the report are not depreciated due to practicality purposes, and a note of explanation appears in that report.

The district has six segregated funds reserved for specific purposes. Descriptions of each fund are listed on pages 6 and 7 of your copy of the financial statements. 2. Revenues

During this past year the district recorded $2,030,000 in revenues which were funded as follows: $825,000 from property sales; $586,000 from the churches toward their district allocations; $314,000 toward the Olivet education fund and Centennial Chapel donations; $140,000 in medical premiums; $55,000 from camps; $48,000 in shared space reimbursements; $14,000 from interest income; and $48,000 from gifts and various other sources. 3. Expenditures

Expenses totaled $1,376,000 which included $312,000 in Olivet education fund and Centennial Chapel payments; $242,000 for mission projects; $189,000 for wages and employee benefits; $166,000 in property expenses; $156,000 in medical premiums; $87,000 for camping ministries; utility, insurance, and administrative expenses of $80,000; $40,000 provided to the NMI, NYI, & SDMI departments for their ministry budgets; $36,000 in and out expense; $36,000 for district activities; interest expense of $22,000; and $10,000 for General Assembly-related expenses. 4. Change in Net Assets

The change in net assets for 2010 was a positive $654,000. This is mainly due to property transactions in the Foundation fund. During the fiscal year the District Advisory Board took action on its long-range plan of selling properties that are either vacant or not part of future mission- related plans. This year the vacant Brookfield church and parsonage were sold to another church organization. The gross sale price totaled $825,000 with the buyer assuming all renovation costs. The proceeds were used to pay off existing mortgages and liabilities and to begin the process of growing the district's endowment within the Foundation fund. We give praise to God for this accomplishment and to how it has helped the district's overall financial position. 5. Receivables

A note receivable is listed at $490,000 in Note 4 on Page 9 for the sale of the campground. The repayment schedule started in May 2010. Interest is adjusted annually at a variable rate. The term of the note is twenty years. 6. Long-Term Liabilities

As a result of the Brookfield property sale, the district was able to significantly reduce debt thus saving thousands of dollars in future interest expense. Of those remaining, Schaumburg Parsonage is listed because the district is a co-signer on the loan. It is scheduled to be paid-in-

full by Chicago First Korean church this summer. The Austin Parsonage mortgage was entered into by the district and is the district's responsibility. The variable interest rate is currently 3.25%. The Pastoral Transition Loan was established in 2008 by an anonymous donor to make cash available for the district to loan to churches or pastors who need housing assistance during times of transition, with no cost to the district. The line of credit that had been used for the completion of the Twin Rivers obligations is now paid-in-full.

7. Short-Term Liabilities and Cash

Due to the faithfulness of the churches in paying the district apportionment, we were able to end the year with all short-term obligations paid-in-full. General fund cash grew by $15,000 to an ending balance of $40,000 with $231,000 reserved for future mission & property needs in the Foundation fund. This year, $595,000 was received in district apportionments, up from $579,000 in 2008-2009, yet another reminder that in tough economic times God's people come through in amazing ways.

8. Funding the Mission through the 2010-2011 Budget

In April we were privileged to have Mark Lail and Don Walter from the Global Ministry Center make a presentation to local treasurers and pastors about the new apportionment system which began May 1, 2010. The new district apportionment figure recommended by the District Finance Committee is 5% of total church charitable income, less WEF and 10% giving. This will result in a lower operating budget for the district. This new budget has been trimmed by about 13% based on the financial projections for 2010-2011 using the new system. We are confident that God's blessings will be poured out on our churches as they honor Him with the new tithe & offering concept associated with the new funding philosophy.

This is my fourth full year as treasurer and fifth report to the assembly. I have appreciated observing the dedication and spirit of service exhibited by our District Superintendent, District Staff, and District Advisory Board. Thank you to all of the pastors and lay leaders who support the district with prayers and with giving to others. May we continue to honor the Lord through our giving and carrying out His plans.

Respectfully submitted, Matthew Foor, CPA District Treasurer

ACCOUNTANTS’ REPORT Board of Directors, Chicago Central District, Church Of The Nazarene, Bourbonnais, Illinois:

We have compiled the accompanying financial statements of Chicago Central District, Church Of The Nazarene (a not-for-profit corporation), as of April 30, 2010, and for the year then ended in accordance with Statements on Standards for Accounting and Review Services issued by the American Institute of Certified Public Accountants. A compilation is limited to presenting in the form of financial statements information that is the representation of management. We have not audited or reviewed the accompanying 2010 financial statements and, accordingly, do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on them. However, we did become aware of departures from generally accepted accounting principles that are described in the following paragraph. As more fully described in Note 2 to the financial statements, property and equipment are stated at appraisal value in the accompanying balance sheet. In our opinion, such assets should be recorded at acquisition cost, if purchased, or at fair value if donated or contributed, to conform with accounting principles generally accepted in the United States of America, and those amounts should be depreciated over the estimated useful lives of the assets. The effects on the financial statements of the preceding practices are not reasonably determinable. The supplemental information accompanying the financial statements is presented only for additional analysis purposes. We have not audited or reviewed the accompanying supplemental information and, accordingly, do not express an opinion or any other form of assurance on such information. The financial statements for the year ended April 30, 2009 were audited by us. In our audit report dated June 8, 2009, we referred to a departure from generally accepted accounting principles because the Organization carried its property at appraisal value. We have not performed any auditing procedures since that date. Borschnack, Pelletier & Co. June 7, 2010

Its membership consists of all the members of the Chicago Central District Assembly of the Church of the Nazarene.

NOTE 2 - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Basis of accounting The financial statements of the Chicago Central District, Church of the Nazarene, have been prepared on the accrual basis of accounting. Basis of presentation Financial statement presentation follows the recommendations of the Financial Accounting Standards Board in its Statement of Financial Accounting Standards (SFAS) No. 117, Financial Statements of Not-for-Profit Organizations. Under SFAS No. 117, the Organization is required to report information regarding its financial position and activities according to three classes of net assets: unrestricted net assets, temporarily restricted net assets and permanently restricted net assets. Unrestricted Net Assets Net assets that are not subject to donor-imposed stipulations. Temporarily Restricted Net Assets Net assets subject to donor-imposed stipulations that may or will be met either by the actions of the District and/or passage of time. Permanently Restricted Net Assets Net assets subject to donor-imposed stipulations that may be maintained permanently by the District. Generally, the donors of these assets permit the District to use all or part of the income earned on related investments for general or specific purposes. Revenue recognition Contributions received are recorded as unrestricted, temporarily restricted or permanently restricted support, depending on the existence and/or nature of any donor restrictions. Income tax status The Organization qualifies as a tax-exempt organization under Code Section 501 (c)(3) of the Internal Revenue Code and, therefore, has no provision for federal income taxes. Cash The Organization maintains its cash balances at various banks. The Federal Deposit Insurance Corporation insures accounts at each institution up to $250,000.

Upon retirement, sale or other disposition of property, the cost is removed from the accounts and the related gain or loss, if any, is reflected in the year of disposal. Donated services No amounts have been reflected in the financial statements for donated services. The Organization pays for services requiring specific expertise. However, many individuals volunteer

their time and perform a variety of tasks that assist the Organization with its various programs. Reclassifications Certain 2009 amounts have been reclassified to conform to the 2010 presentation. Estimates The preparation of financial statements in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles requires management to make estimates and assumptions that affect certain reported amounts and disclosures. Accordingly, actual results could differ from those estimates. Board designated District funds The District uses Funds to account for its various sources of revenues and expenditures.
