SUPERINTENDENT'S REPORT To our esteemed General Superintendent, members, and friends of

the 59th Annual Conference of the Michigan District of the Pilgrim Holiness Church. Greetings in His precious name.

It is indeed in the providence of God that we are able to gather to-gether in this conference for blessings, for fellowship, and to do business for our Master and the district.

Since the various churches have given us the privilege as ministers and delegates to be present, we must be serious and prayful as we enter into this conference. Each church and member of our district is depending on us to pass such legislation as will enhance our churches, enlarge our borders, and enrich us with the presence of the Holy Spirit. This must be the objective of this conference. This we must seek to accomplish.

Since the General Conference of the Wesleyan Methodist Church has rejected the merger, it has removed some barriers and erased some hesitations from our slate. We can now enter into a larger and more vigor-our program for progress. We are limited only by the lack of finances, the lack of vision, and the fearfulness of heart.

We are living in fearful, yet wonderful days. Fearful because of the deadening and blighting effects the world and modernistic religion is having on holiness churches. Wonderful because God has placed before us a great open door for winning souls in this mechanized age by using modern inventions to win souls for Christ. However, we must realize that if we are to continue to make spiritual and numerical gains, we must exhibit a more sacrificial spirit than we did last year.

The President of the United States has asked Congress to extend the debt ceiling to 280 billion dollars while the wealth of the nation is estimated around 300 billion. If the President is willing to venture near bankruptcy to try to keep peace in the world, then we of the church who realize this world is not our home and who are looking for a City whose builder and maker is God should be willing and ready to make greater financial sacrifices and to enter into more strenuous labor for souls and the Kingdom.

This district stands in danger of losing its sacrifical spirit for Christ. Most of us are giving of our abundance and equeeze in a bit of time for our Master. There is not much real financial sacrifice nor much overtime put in for souls. I pray that God in this conference will clarify our vision, refire our souls, and help every delegate to go back to his church to convince them that we must strengthen our borders. We must enlarge our borders even though it will cost extra sacrifice in time and money. With a popular sining religion and modernistic holiness surrounding us, this in no time for us to intrench. We must put forth effort to go over the top for Christ and souls. We, as pastors and preachers, must lead the way.

I am aware of the fact that we still have a few churches who can-not support their pastor adequately. The pastor must supplement his salary by working. May God strengthen the pastors who are carrying

- 17 -

this double physicial and spiritual load. I trust the delegates, who are from such churches, will do your utmost to have your church make any passible adjustment so that the pastor will be able to give full time to the church and community. Will you work with all possible speed toward this end? It will pay off in big dividends.

There may be those who could live within their income but the luxuries of life have encumbered them financially. They must seek financial aid elsewhere. This cripples their influence with the church and community. I cannot, however, place all the blame on the pastors. Some churches could do better by their pastor but they believe that the pastor should make all the sacrifices. This should not be. We must work, sacrifice, and beleive God to give the increase. May God help us all to pray "Thy servant heareth" and "Thy will be done".

THE DISTRICT

Last conference year (1957-58) was a year of mortage burning in several of the churches. This conference year the order of the day seems to be re-locating, re-modeling, and building.

Owosso is adding an educational unit 40x86 - 30x30 to their church. This includes offices, Sunday school rooms, and an auditorium 38x65 for youth and prayer meetings.

Battle Creek 1 has voted to add a large two story educational unit to their present church.

Battle Creek 2 is in the process of seeking a new location for their church and plan to build in the near future.

Grand Rapids has sold their property and purchased a large parcel of land on which they will build their new church just outside the city limits. They plan to have it completed by Christmas.

Wyoming City Pilgrim Church, a new church this year, purchased a large piece of ground on 36th St. and plan to build soon.

Lansing 1 has their new commodius church well under way. This is in a beautiful new development in the city.

Lansing Grace built a new addition on their present church.

Eaton Rapids is already occupying their new church. They furnished it with new furniture and cushioned pews. They dedicated this beautiful building on June 7. The pastor and people labored and sacrificed to accomplish this.

Burnips is planning to have the first service in their new brick church on August 16. They are also building an educational unit on the church. This is a great advancement for Burnips.

Kalamazoo has sold their church and are moving from their cramped quarters to the church they purchased in Parchment, growing suburb of Kalamazoo.

- 18 -

Hastings is still planning to build a new church as soon as they sell their present building.

The Coleman church voted to buy property in a different location of the city for a new plant. This is a long range plan.

Merrill has remodeled the parsonage and installed a new oil fur-nace.

Traverse Heights remodeled their church basement, installed a chapel for junior church, repainted all rooms, and repainted the parsonage.

Lutz finished and decorated the inside of their fine parsonage.

Newberry remodeled their church entrance adding convenience and comfort to the church.

Houghton Lake has continued to landscape their property and have added more cement walks around the parsonage as well as installing a new furnace in the church.

Cheboygan is finishing, decorating and siding their parsonage.

Ashley is building a basement under their church.

Sterling has redecorated their parsonage.

Almira has finished the outside and decorated the inside of their new parsonage.

Scottville finished the two large rooms which they added to their parsonage. They are completing the entrance of the church.

Chesaning remodeled, furnished, decorated the basement and painted the outside of their church. They have installed pews from the Hope Church.

We are sorry to announce the Hope Church is closed and the build-ings have been sold. This was a difficult decision for the council to make. I feel that anyone who knows the history of the Hope Church will readily agree this was the wisest thing that could be done.

This gives you a bird's eye view of the churches in the district which have added to or increased the value of their property. I trust I have not slighted anyone in failing to mention accomplisments that were made this year. I have made no attempt to determine the increased value of our district property, but when construction is completed, it will run into several hundreds of thousands of dollars.

Thus, as we march on for God under the leadership of able and spirit filled pastors, may we also increase and enlarge our vision so as to adequately meet and fill the spiritual needs of our communities.

- 19 -

SPIRITUAL PROGRESS

Many churches have reported wonderful revivals this year. Some have

said they were the best, ever. The Lord visited and filled the altars

again and again in their regular services. May the Lord so direct that

not one of us will ever be satisfied with the past or present. May we

always be reaching, praying, and seeking for the best.

FINANCIALLY

There seems to be an increase in finances among our churches over and above last year. I am happy to report to you that 86.6% of the budget was paid. This, however, leaves 13.4% not paid. I was hoping it would be 100%. Let us continue to hold the need and reason for the budget before our people and do our best to pay 100% this conference year.

OUR YOUTH

I wish every person here could have visited the youth camp. The behavior and spiritual interest was a credit to our district. This speaks well of our district youth and the District Youth Council.

Since the Sunday school secretary, the missionary secretary, and

the district statistician will be giving their report, I will refrain from a

repetition here.

PASTORAL CHANGES

Briefly let me give to you the changes in pastorates:

Rev. Diller is going to Traverse City 1; Rev. Kraatz is going to Jackson; Rev. Dean is going to Lansing Emmanuel; Alma called Rev. Drummond; Midland Grace called Rev. Finney; Rev. Laubaugh accepted Bellaire; Rev. Ronald Diehi accepted Midland 1; Rev. Elwood Carl is moving to Munising. We pray God will give each one of these a long prosperous ministry in his new field of labor.

It has been a real pleasure to work with the district council. They have a deep concern for the progress of the district. The fellowship I have enjoyed with Rev. Koteskey, my assistant, cannot be expressed. His kinds words of encouragement will not be forgotten soon.

I also wish to thank the pastors and the church boards for their kind cooperative spirit. May God bless each one.

I deem it a privilege to labor for the Lord. The year has been some-what strenuous. At times the burdens seemed heavy. Yet, every burden has been compensated with blessings from God. I thank God for His grace and protecting hand upon me throughout the year.

Report of the Distnct Sunday School Secretary

To our esteemed General Superintendent, Dr. William H. Neff; our District Superintendent, Rev. A. C. Doehring; and memebers of this 59th Annual Conference of the Michigan District: "Grace be to you and peace from God the Father, and our Lord Jesus Christ who gave himself for our sins, that He might deliver us from this present evil world according to the will of God, our Father: To whom be glory foever and ever."

It has been a real pleasure to labor for you and with you this past year.

The District Sunday Schools have been organized into zones according to Resolutions No. 1 and 2 of the 1958 Conference Journal. The zone chairmen and the Sunday school committee have worked diligently to encourage growth in the district.

Our primary objective for the past year has been four-fold:

1. To bring about a closer relationship between the local Sunday school and the district Sunday school program.

2. To promote growth in the local Sunday school.

3. To promote closer cooperation of the Sunday schools in the zones.

4. To encourage zone participation in starting branch Sunday schools.

The co-operation of the Sunday schools has been excellent. Thirty-seven have completed their annual reports. Four have incomplete reports. Twenty-five reported gain. Two reported even. Ten reported losses.

Our average weekly attendance for the year of 1957-58 was 3521. The average weekly attendance for the year of 1958-59 is 3779, thus showing an average gain of 259 per week or 7.1%. The Battle Creek First Church had the highest numerical gain with 85. Cheboygan is second with 21 gain.

The highest percentage gain is Cheboygan with 44.7%. Northside Battle Creek is second with 33.3%. 1 thank God for giving us a good in-crease in the Sunday School Department.

CHURCH EXTENSION

No. 5 — CHURCH EXTENSION FELLOWSHIP

Inasmuch as the present church extension department of our con-ference is not producing the number of new church that we are capable of producing, and whereas, the establishing of new churches is necessary for a steady and healthy growth for any conference, and whereas there appears to be a definite weakness in our present policy of raising funds for church extension work, the Michigan Conference adopted a Church Extension Fellowship which reads as follows:

CHURCH EXTENSION FELLOWSHIP OF THE

PILGRIM HOLINESS CHURCH, MICHIGAN CONFERENCE

Holding the conviction that God would have us further the cause of Christ by establishing new churches within our conference borders, I subscribe to the following:

(a) I will pray for the leading of the Lord in the work of the Church Extension Board.

(b) I will be alert for any possibilities of new churches and will in-form the Board.

(c) I recognize that the first financial obligations in the opening of a new work are the most difficult to meet, and will therefore be responsi-ble for two units, ($5. per unit), to total $10.00 for the Church Exten-sion Fellowship.

(d) I assume this obligation for not more than two new works in any one conference year. Said works to be approved by the Church Extension Board.

(e) I will try to secure other members for the Fellowship.

(1) I understand this agreement may be terminated any time I deem it necessary by notifying the Church Extension Board.

Date 19

Signed

Address

Inasmuch as there is a financial need among some of the smaller churches of the conference, and there may be times when two Church Extension Fellowship calls are not made, the following plan may be used. When and if no call is made to the fellowship within any six months period, the district superintendent shall have the authority to send a letter to each member asking for the call which shall be used in aiding struggling churches as specified by the district council.

- 28 -

Members are to be instructed that their original pledge does not bind them to this payment, but that it sail be on a voluntary basis of giving.

The Church Extension Fellowship shall be presented at least once a year to all local churches by the district superintendent or some other district official. If the district superintendent or one of his council mem-bers cannot be present, the pastor will be expected to present this propsi-tion.

No. 6 CHURCH EXTENSION COMMITTEE The church extension committee, as soon as possible following con-

ference and camp and likewise every year following camp, shall study and survey any or all areas where a new church may be started.

DISTRICT YOUTH PRESIDENT'S REPORT Mr. Chairman, members of the Fifth Annual Youth Conference of the

Michigan District Pilgrim Holiness Church. Greetings in Jesus' Name. I have found a deep personal satisfaction in living and working

for Jesus Christ, our Saviour. To be a part of the great work of pro-claiming the gospel of Christ is a supreme honor, a high privlege, and a mighty challenge, yet withal it is a sober task.

Years before I was born, holy men and women of God were traveling the dirt roads, over hills and through the valleys, laying the foundation of our Church in prayers, sweat and tears. We are reaping the benefit of their labors today! May we be inspired to continue their uncompromising fight against sin.

- 41 -

I wish to express my deep appreciation to our District Superintendent, Rev. A. C. Doehring, and the Youth Council, for their cooperation in the youth program.

I have enjoyed working with each young person. All have cooperated and this past conference year was a year of spiritual progress for many. I have visited all of our zones. I appreciate the leadership of the zone presidents. These leaders have been faithful and enthusiastic, and have done their best to lead the youth. There are wonderful reports of good altar services and spiritual showers in our district.

In September I was privilged to attend the General Youth Leader's Conference in Indianapolis, Indiana. Under the leadership of our National Youth Director, Dr. Paul Elliott, plans were laid for the general youth program. This program was launched in the district during National Youth Week. Much enthusiasm was noted. Our district has 7 societies that are chartered societies.

During the year two district rallies were held. The weather was somewhat inclement. I urge a greater interest and response to these rallies.

With the splendid help of the Youth Council and consecrated workers, God gave us an outstanding Youth Camp at Cadillac, Michigan. There were 120 young people from 22 different churches. An unusual event noted was 12 young people from the Upper Peninsula.

A wonderful spirit of cooperation and respect prevailed. The Spirit of God permeated the entire camp. Devotions and prayer meetings could be heard in the dormitories as the young people closed the day's activities. 68 souls sought help at an altar of prayer. The closing campfire service resounded with testimonies of the saving knowledge of Jesus Christ. To God be the glory for all that was accomplished! Thene is a need for two camps. The present age range is too wide. Pray about this! I firmly believe the Youth Camp is a vital part of the District Youth Program.

Again I appreciate each one who has helped in any part of the youth work. Still there is a need for better cooperation from some pastors. We have some of the finest youth you can find anywhere. Let us make it easy for a great host of youth to find their place in God's plan. They are not only the church of tomorrow, they are the church of today. May the Michigan District Youth accept the challenge that lies before us.

(17) The election of zone officers and the annual zone business meeting shall be held at the first rally of the conference year.

(18) The officers of the zone shall consist of President, Vice President, Secretary, and Treasurer. The pastors and youth presidents shall be active voting members of the business session.
