Roll and Pastoral Records of Conference Members in Full
Connection: 573, 1975
Note: This was formerly the Chronological Roll and is now alphabetically
arranged for greater convenience and to provide a listing of the service
records of conference members in full connection, both effective and re-
tired. Since the information came from records supplied by each man and
includes only service in the North Carolina Conference, the Conference
Secretary should be notified of any discrepancies or changes that the
members wish to have made. Note that service years vary in value and the
Conference Board of Pensions evaluates each year of service in terms of
annuity credit. The figures in the right-hand column only indicate the
number of years served under episcopal appointment to the North Caro-
lina Conference. All questions concerning years applicable to annuitv
credits should be directed to the Board of Pensions (Editor) .

Note : Information for the Conference Directory derives principally from
two sources : from the ministers themselves on the cards provided
them and filed with the Conference Secretary, and from District
Directories furnished the Conference Secretary by the Superin-
tendents. However, each minister is personally responsible for the
correct reporting of his/her own address. Spouse's name (when
provided) is given in parentheses after pastor's name. If there is
an error in your address or telephone numbers, please notify the
Conference Secretary so the correction may be made for the Con-
ference/ounza/.

(Daily Minutes)
FIRST DAY, AFTERNOON SESSION
Monday, June 7, 1976
The prelude, "Fanfare," by Cooke was played by Mr. Henry Batten,
Organist of the afternoon from the Benson Memorial United Methodist
Church in Raleigh.
Conference Convened: Bishop Robert M. Blackburn, Resident Bishop
of the Raleigh Area, called to order The North Carolina Conference of the
Southeastern Jurisdiction of The United Methodist Church at 1 : 30 p.m.,
following the singing of the traditional Conference hymn, Number 336,
"And Are We Yet Alive?" and the recitation of The Apostles' Creed. This
was the one hundred fifty first session of The North Carolina Annual con-
ference and the ninth session of The North Carolina Annual Conference of
The United Methodist Church. The 1976 session was convened at
Methodist College, Fayetteville, N.C.
Invocation : The Invocation for the opening session of the conference
was brought by Bishop Blackburn on the occasion of his fourth session as
presiding bishop. Reeves Auditorium was packed by Lay and Clerical
Delegates as this 1976 session opened.
Welcome: Bishop Blackburn presented the president of Methodist
College, Dr. Richard W. Pearce, who brought greetings on behalf of the
college. Dr. Pearce emphasized the distinctive nature of this college as a
property of the Conference and recognized members of his staff including
Bill Lowdermilk for their three months of hard work in preparation for the
Conference. Bishop Blackburn accepted with gratitude the preparations
made by Dr. Pearce and the Conference responded with applause.
Host District: Bishop Blackburn introduced the Reverend Norwood
Jones, Superintendent of the Elizabeth City District, who is serving as host
District Superintendent for this session of the Annual Conference. He in
turn introduced Mr. Don Craft, Lay Leader and member of the Ahoskie
145
UM Church, to bring greetings on behalf of the district. The Conference
expressed appreciation with applause and Jones was again recognized. He
pointed out that it has been 29 years since the Eizabeth City District had
served as a host to the Conference in any manner. He commented on how
appropriate it was in this Bicentennial Year that the district which had
been the birthplace of Methodism in Eastern North Carolina should serve
as the host district. Jones called attention to the procedures to be followed
during the sessions of Annual Conference and the necessity for prompt
registration for special meals and other individual activities. Bishop Black-
burn expressed appreciation to Norwood Jones for his work and his com-
ments. He reviewed some of the highlights of the Conference that were to
come.
Special Words: Rev. James Coile, Conference Secretary, introduced
Rev. E.R. Porter, who in turn presented Mr. Will Chadwick of New Bern
to present to Bishop Blackburn a special gavel to celebrate the Bicen-
tennial of the Carolina Circuit. Bishop Blackburn expressed appreciation
for anybody who would sit through 64 sessions of the Annual Conference
and accepted the gravel with great appreciation and recalled that he had
spoken at Centenary UM Church in New Bern when he first arrived in the
bounds of the conference.
Special Word of Welcome: Bishop Blackburn .ecognized Rev. Norwood
Jones to introduce Mayor Beth Finch of the City of Fayetteville to bring
special greetings from the city, mayor Finch was greeted with a round of
applause and she expressed appreciation for the repeated visits of the
United Methodist Conference and for the presence of Methodist College in
Fayetteville. She invited those who had time to visit greater downtown
Fayetteville to do so and assured the delegates that they would receive a
full welcome. She wished the members of the Conference success in their
endeavors. The Conference responded with applause.
Point of Personal Privilege : Norwood Jones expressed a desire that the
Bishop be recognized not only as president of the Conference and a very
special person, but a very special Bishop, and in token of such the Eliz-
abeth City District was providing a rose for his lapel to be placed on his
desk each day. Norwood Jones introduced Don Craft, who was to pin the
rose on Bishop Blackburn's lapel as a mark of esteem and appreciation,
not only for the years of leadership but also with expectation of years of
leadership to come. Mrs. N.L.Jones received an orchid.
Organization of the Conference : Conference Secretary, Jim Coile, was
recognized. He moved that the Rules of the Conference as printed on pages
11-15 be approved. It was seconded. The Rev. James Miller was recognized
for a motion relative to a change in Section IV, Article 4, of the Rules of
the Conference : "After the words, 'a member of the Cabinet. . .' add 'or the
Conference Staff.' The sentence will then read: 'A member of the Cabinet
or the Conference Staff (designated by the Cabinet) shall serve as the
covening officer for the organizational meeting.' " The amendment was
adopted. The Rules as amended were adopted.
Official Roll: Rev. Jim Coile moved that the cards as signed at the
registration tables by both lay and clerical members of the Conference be
designated as the official roll of the Conference. This was approved.
146

Reeves Auditorium be the Bar of the Conference. It was approved.

ference Program and Recommendationsd, 1976 and enclosed in the

churches." The motion was seconded and carried without dissent or
debate.

nominations to Conference Boards and Agencies be moved to Tuesday af-
ternoon to lie on the table until Wednesday afternoon, and that the floor
be open for further nominations on Tuesday afternoon with voting to take
place Wednesday afternoon. Bishop Blackburn remarked that this would
indicate that all nominations would be brought by Tuesday afternoon and

passed.

Miss Kathy Smoot of the Circus Tent Ministry of the Elizabeth City Dis-

appreciation for their service.
Introduction of Guest: Bishop Blackburn introduced Miss Sue Henry,
Manager of Cokesbury Book Store in Raleigh. Miss Henry gave a report
of the activities of the Cokesbury Store and the proposed expansion. She
spoke with great appreciation for the support of the people of the Con-
ference and of the state in general. She again referred to the store as a
"happy store." Miss Henry presented a check in the amount of $5,711.49

Conference: Dr. Edgar Nease of the Lake Junaluska Assembly was pre-
sented by Bishop Blackburn and he expressed appreciation for the monies
raised toward the improvement and renovation of Lake Junaluska. He

lina Annual Conference and announced that the fund drive had been
extended until December 31 , 1976, and hoped that other monies would be
forthcoming to the Junaluska Advancement Fund. Bishop Blackburn
stated that we should go back to our churches and try to raise the remain-
der of our apportionment and pay it in full so that the work of this great
Assembly could go on. The Messages were received with enthusiasm and a
vote of confidence.
Privileged Matter: Bishop Blackburn recognized the Reverend Doctor
F. Lowry, who has been attending Annual Conference for 63 years.
Composite Report of the District Superintendents: Rev. James H.

(See Section V for Reports of the District Superintendents.) The Bishop
called for all the District Superintendents to stand and he praised them for
their leadership. All received an ovation from the Conference.
Motion: Rev. Russell Stott, Goldston Charge, moved that "Whereas
moving is part of our itinerant system, and Whereas the reimbursements
152
now paid by the Conference do not cover moving expenses, Be it resolved
that by 1978 ministers shall be reimbursed for all their moving expenses
and that the Council on Finance and Administration take the necessary
steps to assure this." The motion was seconded. Stott spoke to the motion
and it was referred to the Council on Finance and Administration by vote
of the Conference.
Motion: Mrs. Martha Garrick offered the following motion : "Recogniz-
ing that Diaconal Ministers (Lay Workers) are professional persons
ministering in the United Methodist Church, and whereas the General
Conference voted to give the Annual Conference the privilege of granting
consecrated Lay Workers voting delegate status to the Annual Confer-
ence ; we move that the consecrated Lay Workers of the NC Conference be
given this right, within the framework of the Lay Equalization plan, and
ask that the implementation be referred to the Lay Equalization Comit-
tee." It was seconded. Mrs. Garrick spoke to her motion and requested that
the consecrated Lay Workers in the Diaconal Ministry be given the vote.
Bishop Blackburn ruled that this was a motion to refer to committee and
the referral of this motion was adopted.
Report of the Conference Council on Ministries: Bishop Blackburn
called upon the Director of the Council on Ministries, Charles Mercer, to
present the overall report. Mercer indicated that there would be a general
report and then each individual Board and Division would give its report.
The presentation began with a Multi-Media program produced by the
Conference Staff and narrated by Charles Mercer. The Conference ap-
plauded the special Multi-Media presentation and Mercer resumed his
presentation by calling for the Conference Staff to come forward. Simul-
taneously he asked the secretaries from the Methodist Building to stand
and receive the accolade of the Conference for their hours of hard work.
Mercer referred to The Conference Program and Recommendations,
1976, page 22, requesting approval of recommendations from the Confer-
ence Council on Ministries which encompassed the remainder of the year
1976. Mercer moved the adoption of these seven recommendations. They
were adopted.
Mercer then explained that beginning on page 23 and continuing
through page 33, the 1977 Program Recommendations to be implemented
by the local church and those to be implemented by the district Council on
Ministries and those to be implemented by the Conference Council on
Ministries were each divided into two sections: A. Actions Which Shall
Be Taken; B. Actions Which Shall be Considered. New recommenda-
tions were identified by an asterisk.
The 1977 Program Recommendations to be implemented by the local
church were considered first. The first two sections were presented.
Motion: Charles Litzenberger moved the following: "I recommend
the words 'Mental Retardation Sabbath" be deleted and replaced by the
words "A Sunday for God's Exceptional Children." This was in Section A,
Item 6, page 23 of The Conference Program and Recommendations,
1976. It was seconded. Litzenberger spoke to the motion and it was ac-
cepted by the Conference Council on Ministries without any further
question.
153
Question: Mrs. Emily Gardner, lay member from Wesley Memorial
Church, Warrenton, questioned Item 3 under Section A, page 23, as to
how it was possible to set a goal for the number of people that might be
touched by the Holy Spirit and received into the church on profession of
faith. Simeon Cummings explained that it was simply a goal toward which
to work.
Question: Randy Wall wanted to know the rationale behind the sched-
uling of the Church-wide Visitation Program on March 13-19. Mercer
responded by saying that this type of emphasis seemed to be appropriate
during the Lenten season and it was scheduled to coordinate with the
Conference Calendar.
Motion: Randy Wall moved "to delete 'on March 13-19, 1977' from
A.l. on page 23 of The Conference Program and Recommendations,
1976. Mercer responded, defending the original date. Langill Watson
spoke against the Wall motion. Watson pointed out that the motion was
one of concern because he was a student pastor and that the dates might
conflict with his student work. Watson stated that while he appreciated
Wall's concern over not getting caught in the conflict, he was also con-
cerned that we would be setting a precedent to concern themselves with
making changes which were for the advantage of only slightly less than 50
student pastors. The question was called on the Wall motion. The vote was
taken and the Wall motion was lost.
Motion: Rev. John Maides moved the following: "I move that each
church be requested to conduct a religious census prior to visitation, to
be conducted in late winter or spring." There was a second to the motion
by Troy J. Barrett. The Maides motion lost
Motion: Mrs. Emily Gardner moved that "on page 23, Section A., Item
3, the wording be changed to read 'that each local church Administrative
Board shall set as one of its top priorities the reception of new members on
profession of faith.' " There was a second to the motion. Languil Watson
spoke as to the need for goal setting in every activity in church life. Mercer
commented on this matter. The motion was defeated.
Motion: William P. McComas of Creswell moved that the wording
under A (Actions Which Shall Be Taken) on page 23, be changed from
"shall be" to ought to be." The motion was seconded and McComas spoke
to it. After a speech for the motion, Dr. Tom Collins spoke against it on
the grounds that some actions need to be mandated since they are a man-
date of the Council on Ministries and the entire Annual Conference. The
Question was called. The motion was lost.
Question Called: The question was called on Items on pages 23, 24,
25 and the top of page 26, including A and B under "1977 Program
Recommendations To Be Implemented By The Local Church," Section
A, Actions Which Shall Be Taken, Items 1-7; and Section B, Actions
Which Shall Be Considered, Items 1-21. They were moved, seconded and
adopted.
Mercer moved on to page 26 taking up the 1977 Recommendations To
Be Implemented By The District Council on Ministries, Section A, Items
1-8.
Question: David Dunlap questioned the rationale behind Item 6, the
154
implementation of this Item by the Pastor-Parish Relations Committee.
Mercer responded by stating that the Pastor-Parish Relations Committee
would give the minister permission and even encouragement in attendance
at programs of continuing education which necessitated his being absent
from his parish and also, hopefully, would undergird him financially, if
necessary. Bishop Blackburn called for approval of Section A, Items 1-8
on pages 26-27. It was moved, seconded and all Items were adopted.
Mercer presented Section B on pages 27-28. Henry Griffin of Southport
wanted clarification on Item 3, page 27. He wanted to know the content of
the Young Adult Lab during 1977. R.L. Baldridge of the Conference
Staff stated that the purpose was exploratory in nature to discover new
ways in which to improve Young Adult Work within each given district
and find ways in which to reach Young Adults with the Gospel in the most
winsome manner.
The question was called on Section B, and Items 1-14 were approved.
Mercer continued by presenting 30 Items under Section A, 1977 Recom-
mendations To Be Implemented By the Conference Council on Ministries.
Motion: Sam Dodson moved an amendment to Item 4, page 29. He
moved that we "strike out the three words 'the fall of,' leave in year '1977,'
and add the words 'or camp' after the word college." Dodson's amendment
was accepted by the Conference Council on Ministries.
Motion: Mrs. R.B. Guthrie moved that under Item 5, page 29, we
"delete the words 'costs to be borne by participants' and insert the words
'that the local churches include monies to cover such costs in the Educa-
tion Section of their budgets.' " The motion was defeated.
Motion: John W. Ruth, Allensville-Trinity Charge, moved that "the
District Chairperson on Education be added to the Conference-wide
training event" under Item 1, page 28. R.L. Baldridge explained that the
idea was to train age-level coordinators specifically. The Ruth motion
Motion: John Cline moved that Item 16, page 30 have these words
added: "to be implemented by pastor and local church Council on Minis-
tries." The Cline motion was accepted by the Conference Council on
Ministries.
The question was called on Items 1-30, pages 28-32, and they were
adopted as amended by the Conference.
Mercer continued the presentation of the Items on pages 32 and 33,
1-10 under Section B.
Question: Bob Stafford, Westminister Church, Kinston, questioned
Item 3, asking exactly what was meant by a "human sexuality weekend."
Bill Gattis spoke to the question, explaining that it was of religious orienta-
tion in nature. Malloy Owen questioned as to whether this would be in
violation of recent General Conference action. Mercer responded that it
would not. Owen wanted reassurance that there would be no study of
"Alternative life styles" during these studies on sexuality. Mercer reas-
sured him that there would not.
Richard Vaughan of Hopewell-Mt. Moriah spoke to the need of con-
sidering winter dates for youth so that the rural families would be able to
allow their youth to attend during those months when they were not busy
155
working in the fields and helping around the family farms. He reminded
the Conference that the rural church is the backbone of the conference.
Mercer agreed that everything would be done to make this possible.
Rev. Theodore Von Carter requested the Council on Ministries to con-
sider increasing the number of youth programs available. He expressed the
feeling that many of the young people felt that the Conference was only
interested in the older people. He urged the Conference Council on Min-
istries to enlarge their program of youth activities and reach as many youth
of the Conference as possible. Mercer agreed and requested that Carter
go to the Conference on Youth Ministries, made up predominantly of
young people, and determine what things we ought to be doing. Mercer
stated that one of his own concerns was that we have better youth programs
within each local community and each local church.
Bishop Blackburn asked if the Conference was ready to vote on the Items
on pages 32 and 33, under Section B. The Conference moved to vote on
these Items. Items 1-10 on pages 32-33 were adopted.
Special Recognition and Resolution: Mercer called John M. Meares
forward to hear a special resolution for his long service. (See Resolutions
in Section V.) Meares was accorded a standing ovation and words of
appreciation from the entire Conference. Meares responded in love with
appreciation, charm and wit.
Mercer continued the presentation of the Conference Council on Min-
istries by asking the ushers to pass out a sheet allowing all participants
in the Conference to comment on what might be a possible 1978 Confer-
ence priority. This concluded the presentation of the Conference Council
on Ministries.
The Division on Lay Life and Work: Bishop Blackburn called upon
Grier Garrick to make the report for the Division. (See Section V.) Follow-
ing his report Conference Lay Leader Garrick submitted new officers for
district lay posts. The report was approved and officers were elected.
Garrick concluded with a statement of appreciation to all of the many
people who have helped him during his tenure as Conference Lay Leader;
and, as he concluded that tenure, expressed the feeling that he could not
possibly have carried out the duties of his office without the many hours of
work performed by countless people loyal to the faith.
Conference Lay Leader Elected: James R. Watkins of Rocky Mount
was nominated and elected as Conference Lay Leader for the coming
quadrennium. Mr. Watkins addressed the Conference with words of
thanks and humility. He asked permission to present a resolution in ap-
preciation of and honor for Mr. Grier Garrick. The resolution was read
and adopted by the Conference with a standing ovation. (For text of
resolution, see Section V.)
Report of Committee on Selection of Lay Person of the Year: James R.
Watkins, as his first official act as the new Lay Leader of The North Caro-
lina Conference, awarded the Lay Person of the Year award to Julia
Williams of Fairmont United Methodist Church in Raleigh for her untir-
ing service to and devotion to Christ and her church during the past years.
Her service was especially noteworthy because of her work, not only in her
local church, but on behalf of Christian endeavors in North Carolina and
156
in South America. The Conference acknowledged and approved her
award with a standing ovation.
Report of United Methodist Women: Bishop Blackburn recognized
Mrs. Ruth Cade, president of United Methodist Women, for her report,
The report emphasized the call to mission and the full text is included in
Section V. The report was received with great appreciation.
Announcements: Conference Secretary, James Coile, made announce-
ments.
Resumption of Order of the Day: Bishop Blackburn called for the sing-
ing of Hymn Number 150, "A Charge To Keep I Have," by Charles Wes
ley. Bishop Blackburn introduced and presented with deep appreciation
and affection Dr. Ernest T. Campbell, pastor of Riverside Church, New
York City. Dr. Campbell was the official Conference preacher and this
was the first of three sermons he was to preach. Dr. Campbell used as his
text the prologue to John's Gospel.
Bishop Blackburn expressed gratitude to Dr. Campbell for his stirring
sermon and then pronounced the Benediction. The Conference was
adjourned until 2 : 00 p.m.
SECOND DAY, AFTERNOON SESSION
Tuesday, June 8, 1976
Following the playing of the Prelude, "Sonata II," by Mendelssohn,
by Mr. Dale Caldwell, Organist/Chorimaster, Front Street UM Church,
Burlington; Bishop Blackburn called the afternoon session of the North
Carolina Annual Conference to order and prepared for the service of
recognition of the ministers who are retiring. The Conference sang Hymn
287, "We Are Climbingjacob's Ladder."
Bishop Blackburn called the question, "What members in full connec-
tion have retired?" Rev. Kermit Wheeler, Secretary of the Board of Pen-
sions, answered the question and presented certificates to the retiring
ministers. Bishop Blackburn gave each the hand of fellowship and a
special parchment recognizing their years of service. A corsage was pinned
on each of the wives of the retiring ministers. Bishop Blackburn asked
each of the retiring ministers to make a brief statement to the Conference.
At the conclusion of the order for recognition of the retiring ministers the
Conference joined in singing "Blest Be The Tie That Binds."
Point of Personal Privilege: Norwood L. Jones was recognized for a
point of personal privilege. The Conference recognized and applauded
Brother John A. Russell, who was attending his 64th consecutive session of
the Annual Conference.
Report of the Division on Health and Welfare Ministries: Bishop Black-
burn recognized Dr. Marvin Vick, Superintendent of The Methodist Home
for Children. After expressing the needs of the Home, Vick presented Mrs.
Louise Peterson to speak in terms of thanksgiving for the support for The
Methodist Home for Children that comes through the Conference through
the Single Figure Asking and other Conference sources. Mrs. Peterson,
a member of the Board of Trustees emphasized the missional aspects of the
work done by The Methodist Home for Children. Following Mrs. Peter-
son's report, Vick asked the other staff members and children to come and
stand before the Conference and he introduced them. The children then
157
distributed literature concerning the Home. Finally, Dr. Vick presented
"Muh" Brown who has been at The Methodist Home for Children (Form-
erly called The Methodist Orphanage) since she was 9 years old. She is
now more than 70. He presented her with a brief statement — it was the
first Annual Conference which she had attended — and she was recognized
with a standing ovation in response to a beautiful statement that she made
concerning the meaning of the North Carolina Annual Conference and
what this had meant to her in providing her a home.
Conclusion of Lay Life and Work Matters: Bishop Blackburn recog-
nized Mr. Grier Garrick who presented page 37 of The Conference Pro-
gram and Recommendations, 1976, and Items 26, 27, 28 and 29 were
approved.
Motion: Grier Garrick presented the following motion which came from
the meeting of the Executive Committee of the Conference Council on
Ministries:
"WHEREAS, The North Carolina Conference at its 1974 session au-
thorized the Council on Ministries to appoint an additional staff
person to be known as the Coordinator/Enabler for Special Minis-
tries and Economic Development, and
WHEREAS, the Staff Personnel Committee of the Conference Council
on Ministries has made diligent, but unsuccessful effort to find a
person willing and competent to serve in this dual capacity,
BE IT, THEREFORE RESOLVED that the Annual Conference give
permission to the Conference Council on Ministries to rearrange job
descriptions in order that the functions described by the Conference
may be best fulfilled."
Since this involved a change in the structure, it was ruled that it should
lie on the table for 24 hours before action could be taken.
Resumption of Program of the Conference Council on Ministries:
Charles Mercer moved that the Board of Discipleship be first recognized
and under this the Division of Evangelism.
Division of Evangelism : Rev. M. Dewey Tyson presented the report of
the Division. Tyson recognized the New Life Missioners and emphasized
the importance of the Convocation on Evangelism. Tyson then moved the
adoption of the recommendation on page 34, under C, Item 9, that
Tommy Tyson be appointed as an approved Conference Evangelist for the
coming year. He was approved.
Division of Worship: Rev. W.D. Sabiston III presented the report of
the Division of Worship. (See Section V.) The report was adopted by the
Conference.
Division of Education: Rev. Christian White presented the report of
the Division of Education. White spoke concerning the decline in Church
School membership and showed some hope of an increase in regular
attendance in the near future. White expressed that a new concern for
Evangelism and Discipleship would work hand in hand with the work of
the Church School in improving meaningful attendance. White then
moved the adoption of the policy recommendations on page 34 of The
Conference Program and Recommendations, 1976, Section B, Items
2-8. A question from the floor came concerning why there was a full-time
158
manager-director at Camp Don Lee and not at the other camps. Seaborn
Blair was asked by Christian White to answer this question and Blair
responded by saying that this is the direction in which we are attempting
to move. The questioner was James Earl Sutton. Sutton asked what the
salary of the full-time director would be. Seaborn Blair answered that he
did not know. Sutton said his point was why was a full-time man being
placed there for what appeared to be a part-time work while there was
not adequate staffing at the other camps. Sutton did not push the point
and Dr. Blair continued with his report. Blair said that the questioner had
just pointed up the substance of his message in the task force that had
been planning for the past three years needed additional people for all of
the camps and in order to have that, they needed more money which
would have to be supplied from Conference funds and this was the ulti-
mate plan. He pointed to the work that had been done with the help of
Dr. C.P. Morris and many others who are working hard on a continuing
and part-time basis.
Motion: Dr. Seaborn Blair moved that the camping program be contin-
ued and it be centered primarily around small group camping. He would
like to add this motion as Item 9 under Items 2-8 on page 34 of The Con-
ference Program and Recommendations, 1976. The motion was seconded.
The Item will be considered Item 8. a. at the suggestion of the Conference
Secretary. A suggestion was made by H.S. Goodwin that the words "and
the Urban Ministries" be added just after the words "Migrant Workers"
on Item 8, Section B, page 34. This was accepted. Dr. Blair answered
questions concerning the utilization of Camp Kerr Lake, and he assurred
everyone that personnel were employed and that Camp Kerr Lake would
be utilized to the extent that it received requests for utilization from local
church groups.
Rev. Brooks Patten spoke in recognition of the work of Dr. Seaborn
Blair and his hard work for the Camp Committee and presented Dr. Blair
a key to the camps. Patten said that he hoped this key would open any
door to camping in the North Carolina Conference to Dr. Blair and stated
that it was presented as a mark of esteem and in honor of the work that
Blair had done. The Conference gave Dr. Blair a standing ovation. Sec-
tion B as amended was approved.
Rev. Tommy Faggart gave a brief report on behalf of Christian Educa-
tors and the interest in hiring certified Christian Educators. Faggart
expressed a concern for the financial underwriting of the Christian Educa-
tors and moved the report on pages 38 and 39 of The Conference Program
and Recommendations, 1976. He said that anyone or any church that was
looking for the services of a Christian Educator should contact the Method-
ist Building Staff or write directly to Scarritt College for help in obtaining
such personnel. With the deletion of the name of Miss Carol Ann Tignor,
who has been transferred to the Virginia Conference, the report on pages
38 and 39 was moved.
Report of the Committee on Church Musicians: The report was pre-
sented by Mrs. Doris Downs who moved the report on pages 40 and 41 of
The Conference Program and Recommendations. It was adopted.
Proposal for Change in Charter of Council on Ministries: Miss Kathy
159
Hodges presented a proposal from the Youth/Young Adult Caucus. The
proposal reads as follows: "Amendment to the Charter of the North Caro-
lina Conference Council on Ministries. Age Level Councils. Purpose —
There shall be organized within the Conference by the Council on Minis-
tries four age level councils (children, youth, young adult, family and
adult) whose purpose shall be to aid in making possible a wholistic ap-
proach to our ministry in all areas of our work. Council on Young Adult
Ministries membership shall be composed of the District Coordinator of
Young Adult Ministry (to be a clergy) and one young adult lay person.
Officers: A chairperson, a secretary and such other officers as deemed
necessary shall be elected from the group. The chairperson shall be a
member of the Conference Council on Ministries. Executive Committee :
to be composed of six members including the Council chairperson and the
Conference Coordinator of Adult Ministries, ex officio. Meetings: Not
more than two council meetings and additional meetings of the execu-
tive committee as deemed necessary. Funding: Expenses incurred in
Council and Executive Committee meetings shall be paid by the Council
on Ministries." This proposal was laid on the table for twenty-four hours
before any action was taken.
Charles Mercer recognized the chairpersons of the various Divisions,
expressing appreciation for the leadership they had provided during the
past quadrennium.
Report of the Board of Global Ministries: Dr. Thomas A. Collins
introduced the speakers and participants on this Board. Collins presented
Rev. Rufus Stark for several reports for the Division of Missions. Stark
presented a paper which had been distributed to the Conference entitled
"The Day of the Global Church." The major paper attached was entitled
"A Bolivian Manifesto on Evangelism for Latin America Today" and Stark
alluded to what the evangelistic ministry and the Bolivian Work Team had
meant in the field of evangelism and mission as a cooperative venture.
Stark then recognized the chairpersons of the Division, recognizing Rev.
Amos Stone, Rev. Paul Bunn, Rev. Clyde Dunn, Rev. Rod Randolph,
Rev. Milton Mann, Rev. George Johnson, Rev. John White, Rev. P.D.
Midgett and Dr. Bill Austin. In addition he expressed appreciation for
Rev. Simeon Cummings and Rev. Frank Grill from the Conference Coun-
cil Office.
Stark recognized Paul Bunn, Conference Missionary Secretary, to give
an overview of the highlights of the past year and the quadrennium. Bunn
spoke in detail about the work, particularly stressing the Advance and the
development of Mission Work Teams. A new book entitled, "Love Is
Being Alive in Mission," will be placed in the hands of the members of the
Conference by August. He commended this as an overview of what can be
done. He emphasized the growth of 427% during the last quadrennium
in the area of Advance Mission giving.
Stark recognized George Johnson for remarks concerning the work of
the Church and Community Committee. Johnson recognized the workers
on this committee and then presented the Church of the Year Awards for
Churches in various categories. Three churches have been named this
year as recipients of the awards. In the category of "Under 300 members"
160
the Evansdale UM Church, Rev. George Wheatly, was recognized and pre-
sented with a plaque. In the category of 300 to 1000 members Wesley
Chapel, Wilmington District, Rev. E.C. Lancaster, pastor, was recognized
and presented with a plaque. In the category of over 1000 members, St.
Luke UM Church, Sanford, Rev. R.W. Ponder, pastor, was recognized
and presented with a plaque. All were accorded a round of applause.
Stark referred to pages 35 and 36, Items 16 through 23, concerning the
Division of Missions. Additions and corrections were made.
Items proposed by Stark on pages 35 and 36 of The Conference Program
and Recommendations, 1976, were adopted by the Conference. Stark
expressed appreciation for the privilege of presenting this report to the
Conference and the Bishop praised the Division for its work.
Report of Task Force on Peace and Self Development : Bishop Black-
burn called on Rev. A.F. Fisher to present a report. Fisher stated that he
would prefer to delay the report until they had the full results of the quad-
rennial program at hand and remarked that it appeared as if the program
had been extremely successful. The Conference has responded beautifully
at the district and conference levels as well as at the local church level.
The impact has been felt and the full report will be ready by this fall.
Report of the Task Force on Hunger: Bishop Blackburn called on Rev.
Clyde Dunn to report on the work of this task force. Dunn emphasized
that the financial success of this to date would predicate continued suc-
cess. He stated that without the vigilant involvement of each Christian in
this work we would not be able to accomplish the dramatic and dynamic
goals set forth by the General Conference this year. The remainder of the
text of Dunn's report can be found in Section V of the Journal. Dunn
recommended that each local church recognize February 20, 1977, the
Sunday before Lent, as Hunger Sunday to receive an offering for World
Hunger in keeping with the quadrennial emphasis. The Dunn report was
adopted with appreciation.
Report of the Division on Health and Welfare Ministries: Bishop Black-
burn called on Rev. A. P. Hill to present the report. Hill noted that we had
already heard from Dr. Marvin Vick and now he called on Dr. Joseph F.
Coble, Executive Director of The Methodist Retirement Homes, Inc.
Report of The Methodist Retirement Homes, Inc. : Dr. Joseph F. Coble
emphasized the number of people now employed by The Methodist Retire-
ment Homes who now are seeking to provide a home of security, love and
health care for persons in the older years of life. He stressed the problem
of declining value of the dollar of the retired person and the need to pro-
vide for the disadvantaged. "While the church cannot serve everyone,"
he continued, "it can and should reach and help a reasonable number of
these people."
He stressed the methods by which the church could provide more benev-
olent assistance to help people in genuine need. He mentioned the Retire-
ment Home in Durham with a capacity of 215 and the Health Care Center
with a capacity of 120 and the Home in Lumberton which will begin
operation in November with a capacity of 90. He invited new applications
for admission to one of the Homes Facilities.
He emphasized that land has been offered for future expansion of the
161
Methodist Home system and requested that the Conference join together in
a covenant to assist in expansion. He described a Bond Sale program to
reduce the two million dollar indebtedness remaining on our current
construction projects.
Motion: Rev. Nathan Byrd of Ahoskie made the following motion:
"I move that the NC Conference respectfully request the Board of Trustees
of The Methodist Retirement Homes, Inc., to review their financial
requirements for entrance into the Home in connection with newly imple-
mented $6,000 Entrance Fee."
Coble spoke to the motion and explained that the $6,000 Entrance Fee
could be waived, but Byrd felt that there was a psychological effect be-
cause of this Fee. Coble stated that the Fee was a one-time fee, but that
the monthly rates and other expenses are set year by year and would have
to be covered by the indivicual. Rev. Clyde Dunn spoke in favor of the
motion that the Trustees reconsider the $6,000 Entrance Fee. Coble called
on Dr. Kimsey King to answer questions concerning the Entrance Fee.
King made a statement.
The Byrd Motion was passed. Rev. Vernon Tyson asked a question as
to whether the matter concerning land was before us and Rev. A. P. Hill
answered that this was a matter that had been voted on last year and was
not properly before us. Rev. Owen Fitzgerald asked a question of Dr.
Coble concerning the sale of Bonds. Fitzgerald questioned whether a Bond
Issue could be floated without approval by the Council on Finance and
Administration. Fitzgerald moved that the bond sale be reviewed by the
Council on Finance and Administration. It was seconded and without
discussion it was so ordered.
Rev. Ed. Earnhardt questioned what exactly was the "third" Home
being referred to in Item 14, page 35, The Conference Program and
Recommendations, 1976. Coble answered the Earnhardt question con-
cerning the land in Elizabeth City as he assumed that the additional home
to be built would be in Edenton.
SEMAR Report: Rev. Ernie Porter gave the report indicating that we
would remember the first Sunday in November as an emphasis for God's
Exceptional Children and also the Items on page 35. Rev. Porter also
expressed appreciation to Rev. A. P. Hill for his service. He was accorded
a round of applause.
Report Adopted: Rev. A. P. Hill concluded his report by moving the
adoption of the entire report on pages 34-35, on Items 10-15, including the
nominations. The entire report was adopted.
Hymn: Bishop Blackburn called for the singing of Hymn Number 348,
"Lead On O King Eternal." It was done.
General Council on Ministries : Dr. N.W. Grant brought a report from
the General Council on Ministries. Grant's report was accepted. (See Sec-
tion V.)
Board of Church and Society Report: Bishop Blackburn called upon
Mrs. J.O. Watson to present the report. She moved the adoption of the
report as well as the resolution beginning on page 84 of The Conference
Program and Recommendations, 1976 concerning the funding of chap-
lains for the North Carolina Division of Prisons. Mr. J.W. Hoyle of Sanford
162
stated that he was opposed to a state hiring chaplains. Rev. Bruce Pate
responded that the funds were already depleted but that the state had five
positions that had been mandated to be filled and that funds were now
needed to help fill these positions and that funds were needed from private
sources. The first resolution was moved, seconded and adopted The
second resolution, supporting a criminal victim compensation act in the
State of North Carolina, was moved, seconded and adopted. The third
resolution was concerning the administration of jails in North Carolina.
Judge Phil Carlton requested that this be amended by having a copy of
the resolution sent to the Boards of County Commissioners in the counties
of the NC Conference. Rev. Joe Mann of Raleigh wondered if this could
be for the whole state of North Carolina and not just for the NC Confer-
ence. This was accepted by Judge Carlton. Grier Garrick wished the word-
ing of the first paragraph to be changed to read "The administration of
'some jails..." This was accepted. Rev. Michael R. McCoy proposed the
following: "Be it further resolved that the NC Conference call upon the
state to establish and maintain uniform standards for its jails." Mrs. B.C.
Langston spoke against the McCoy amendment. The amendment was
defeated. Rev. P.D. Midgett offered this amendment: "Be it further
resolved that local churches work to effect change where such is needed."
It was adopted. The body of the resolution as amended was adopted. The
final resolution from the Board of Church and Society concerning the
humanization of Prisons in North Carolina was moved, seconded and
adopted. This concluded the report of the Board of Church and Society.
The Bishop expressed thanks to Mrs. Watson.
Resolutions from the Cabinet Concerning Nominations to Conference
Agencies: Bishop Blackburn called upon Rev. James H. Miller to present
the following:
"Resolved:
1 . If any person is nominated inadvertently to serve on two agencies where
membership is limited to one, that the Cabinet be given authority to
make the necessary corrections.
2. In order to insure representation of youth, women and ethnic minorities
on each program agency, that the Conference Council on Ministries be
given the authority to select members-at-large.
3. That no board, agency, commission or committee shall be allowed to
add to their membership or add any consultants without first having
them approved by the Executive Committee of the Conference Council
on Ministries."
Rick Bryant of Tarboro asked that the words "young adult" be inserted
after "youth" and it was accepted by the Cabinet. The Cabinet resolutions
were moved, seconded and adopted and so ordered.
Nominations: The nominations to general boards and agencies and
Conference boards and agencies were distributed.
Announcements : Secretary James Coile made announcements.
Presentation of Nominations: Rev. James Miller went over the nomi-
nations page by page. Explanations and corrections were made. Rev.
Clay Smith made a statement of concern about the nominations on page
28 to the Jurisdictional Conference for election to general boards. Smith
163
lay women's positions, there were too many general conterence delegates
and there were too many people from large churches. He felt that others
should be noted, particularly those from small churches. Bishop Black-
burn stated that he did not believe this was the intent of the Cabinet, but
that in order to get people nominated on the Jurisdictional level to the gen-
eral boards they would have to have a certain visibility throughout the
Southeast in order to gain attention. Rev. John Cline rose to speak to the
same issue and stated that time and again people were suggested, but when
they were not known to the Cabinet, it was felt that they also would not be
known to the nominating agency at Jurisdictional Conference and there-
fore they were replaced by someone with higher visibility. Bishop Black-
burn opened the floor for nominations. John Brooks of Raleigh nominated
a young layman for the position of layman nominee for the Board of
Discipleship. Judge Phil Carlton was nominated.
Motion: Rick Bryant made the following motion: "The 1972 General
Conference of the United Methodist Church passed legislation as follows:
(804.3) 'not less than 20 percent of the total membership of each board
shall be under 31 years of age with not less than 13 percent between the
ages of 18 and 30, not less than 7 percent age 17 or under at the time of
election.' The 1976 Southeastern Jurisdictional Conference will take
place this July at Lake Junaluska at which time elections to the general
boards and agencies will occur. In order for the youth and young adults
of the NC Conference to have representation on these boards, we believe
that it is imperative that this Conference send youth/young adult recom-
mendations to the Jurisdictional Conference. Therefore, I move that that
session of the North Carolina Annual Conference accept the recommenda-
tions of the Youth/Young Adult Caucus of this Conference as its recom-
mendations of youth and young adults for the general boards and agen-
cies."
Rev. Charles Mercer spoke to the motion of Steve Banks "That we sub-
mit a slate of youth and young adult delegates for nomination to general
boards and agencies at Lake Junaluska during Jurisdictional Conference."
Mercer explained that the nominees proposed by Rick Bryant would need
to go through a separate route. The Bryant motion that a slate be sub-
mitted was approved. These names were distributed to the Conference in
mimeographed form and will be submitted to the Jurisdictional Con-
ference for election in a separate category.
Also nominated under the youth/young adult category for the Board of
Discipleship was David Harvin.
Discussion : The discussion between Banks, Mercer and the Bishop came
to an impasse and the Bishop ruled that the time of adjournment was at
hand in order that people might make their special dinners and be back
for the evening service of worship. It was further agreed that the Con-
ference would reconvene for a business session following the evening ser-
vice of worship.
Benediction: The benediction was pronounced by Bishop Blackburn
and the postlude was played as the Conference adjourned until 7:00
o'clock.

SECOND DAY, EVENING SESSION
Tuesday, June 8, 1976
At 7 : 15 p.m. there was a brief service of hymns for those gathered in the
Conference awaiting the evening hour of worship. At 7:25 the organist of
the evening, Mrs. Floyd Johnson, Director of Music, Centenary UM Chur
ch, New Bern, played the prelude "Voluntary in C Major" by Stanley. At
7:30 the Introit, "All Praise to Thee, My God This Night," by Tallis
Canon, was sung. Hymn Number 493 was sung by the Conference. In-
vocation by Rev. Charles Owens followed. The anthem, "The Lord Is In
This Place," by Lloyd Pfautsch, was sung by the combined church choirs
under the direction of Roger Searles, Organist/Director of Music at St.
Paul UM Church in Goldsboro. Bishop Blackburn then introduced Dr. Er-
nest T. Campbell, pastor of Riverside Church, New York, for the second in
a series of three Conference sermons. Dr. Campbell dynamically spoke on
the theme of "The Expansion of a Great Faith," beginning with the idea of
having faith as a mustard seed. Following the sermon, announcements
were made by Bishop Blackburn along with appropriate expressions of ap-
preciation. The Offertory, "America, the Beautiful," was sung by the com-
bined church choirs. After the benediction by Bishop Blackburn the choirs
sang the Choral Response, "The Lord Bless You and Keep You," a Peter
Lutkin arrangement.
Recess: Bishop Blackburn announced a brief recess before reconvening
the Conference for business.
Conference Reconvened : Bishop Blackburn gaveled the Conference in-
to business session at 9:00 p.m. and explained the parliamentary
predicament in which we found ourselves in an attempt to elect nominees.
He emphasized that these were nominees to a higher body which would be
thrown into a pool of nominees. He further stated the necessity of some
continuity of people on both the General and Jurisdictional boards and
agencies. Paul Bunn rose to add a word of clarification, that clergy persons
could nominate lay persons and lay persons could nominate clergy persons.
The Bishop agreed.
Charles Mercer arose to explain the problem caused by the election of
youth and youth adult delegates and the problem of proportional
representation by age. He reiterated that these would be chosen from a
separate pool across the Jurisdiction.
Motion: Rev. Rod Randolph moved that the Rick Bryant motion
(made at the afternoon session) be withdrawn and stated that this was
done in agreement with Bryant and Harvin who had made the first
motion. He explained that the other paper could be proposed at a later
time and it would accomplish the intent that Bryant wanted.
Point of Order: Rev. Rufus Stark stated that we were discussing the
original Nominations and we should continue with the Nominations and
take up the Youth or Bryant Motion later.
Disposition of Randolph Motion: The motion to reconsider did not
pass.
Nominations: Bishop Blackburn opened the floor for additional
nominations for Conference boards and agencies.
Several names were submitted from the floor to be added to the list of
165
nominations.
Motion: Stan Smith moved the acceptance of the Youth/ Young Adult
Caucus nominations by acclamation with the addition of the name of Dave
Harvin. The report was amended to add the name of Nancy Best as an at-
large member. The name of Terri Morgan was added.
Motion : Rev. Helen Crotwell moved to reconsider the motion of Charles
M. Smith to reconsider the nominations of members for the boards, com-
missions and committees of the NC Annual Conference. The motion lost.
Motion: Rev. Malloy Owen moved "that the Conference approve the
appointment of the Cabinet nominations to the Boards, Commissions and
Committees of the NC Annual Conference, without nominations from the
floor." There was a second. The Owen Motion was defeated. Reginald
Ponder asked for the right to make any nominations they wished at this
time without going through it page by page.
Nominations Made From Floor: Nominations were made from the floor
for the various Boards, Commissions and Committees of the Annual Con-
ference.
Ballot Suggested: Secretary Jim Coile stated that he would prepare a
Ballot to facilitate the election of the nominees. This was so ordered.

adjourned the session at 11:14 p.m.

report as presented on pages 42-43 of The Conference Program and
Recommendations, 1976, and on page 37. This report contained the
names of nominations of college trustees and he noted that some of the
trustees' names were omitted from the report.
The report was corrected and was moved for confirmation, seconded
and adopted.
Hite spoke to the mandate of the last Annual Conference to consolidate
the boards of Trustees of Louisburg, NC Wesleyan and Methodist Colleges.
He stated that the Division found that there was no legal interdependence
between the colleges and the Conference or between the colleges them-
selves and there appeared to be no legal way to do this without substantive
changes in their charters.
Kenneth Hite announced that the Blackburn Scholarship Fund had
grown to $13,500 and he considered this an expression of love and appre-
ciation for the work of the Blackburns as they conclude their first quad-
rennium with the North Carolina Annual Conference. The Conference
responded with arousing applause and a standing ovation. The Bishop
responded with thanks and affection. Bishop Blackburn expressed the love
and appreciation of Mary Jeanne Blackburn and he expressed thanks for
the support and prayers of the entire Conference and communicated the
fact that Mary Jeanne Blackburn had spoken with him on the phone
that morning to express her affection for the Conference. Bishop Black-
burn explained that Mrs. Blackburn was almost totally confined and
again thanked the Conference for their love and prayers.
Report of the Joint Advisory Committee: Herman Winberry resumed

report was received with appreciation and adopted by the Conference.
(See Section V.) Watson then presented the nominations on pages 44-48

certain changes which will appear in the Journal, the list of nominations
was adopted. Watson moved "that we request the Division of Higher
Education to reconstitute the Regional Commission on Christian Higher
Education and Campus Ministry for the 1977-80 Quadrennium." Watson
stated that this was necessary in order to work with the Western NC Con-
ference. It was seconded and approved by the Conference. Joe Mann and
Dan Earnhardt were recognized as full-time campus ministers. Watson
also recognized Rev. Harvey Estes.
Point of High Privilege: Winberry recognized Rev. James McCallum
who spoke briefly and recognized Rev. Harold Leatherman for a Point of
High Privilege. Leatherman requested Bishop Blackburn to come and
stand with him as he read a resolution of appreciation in honor of Bishop
burn. The resolution was a request to the Jurisdictional Conference to
reassign Bishop Blackburn to the Raleigh Area. McCallum said that this
was the most important report that could come out of Jurisdictional Con-
ference. The resolution was adopted by a standing ovation. (See Section
V.)
Suspension of the Rules: Judge Phil Carlton moved suspension of the
Rules so the resolution requesting Bishop Blackburn's reassignment
could be formally adopted. It was so moved and done and the Conference
again stood to recognize acceptance of the resolution. Harold Leatherman
led in a prayer of affirmation of the resolution and a specific prayer for
Bishop Blackburn and his family. Bishop Blackburn responded with
moving words of appreciation and thanksgiving.

Each was given an opportunity to greet the conference; and Dr. Allen
Norris of Louisburg, Dr. Bruce Petteway of Wesleyan, and Dr. Richard
Pearce of Methodist expressed words of commendation and appreciation.
167
Bishop Blackburn gave words of commendation for Dr. Tommy Lang-
ford in regard to his leadership at General Conference and across the
Church, and since he could not be present at Conference this day, he
recognized Dr. John Bergland to represent and lift up the cause of the
Duke Divinity School. Dr. Bergland expressed profoundly the needs of the
Seminary and the sense of togetherness and oneness of the Seminary and
the people.
Committee on Continuing Education: Herman Winberry presented the
report of the Committee and encouraged more and more churches to put
into their budgets sums for their pastors and key lay persons to participate
in the opportunities available. Winberry introduced Rev. Belton Joyner
to speak about the Doctor of Ministries program at Drew University. Win-
berry also referred to the fact that 386 ministers had registered for the
Bishop's Seminar on Preaching and further called attention to the Con-
tinuing Education opportunity to be offered in Utrecht, Holland, and to
be coordinated by Rev. Charles Bryant.
Ministerial Education Fund: Rev. Wilbur Jackson presented the report
for the Ministerial Education Fund and congratulated the Conference

"Who are continued on probation?" The Conference approved the names
as in the original report and the corrections will appear in thejournal.
Qiiestion 30: Bob Bundy was recognized to answer Question 30. It was
passed by the Conference.
W.W. Sherman called on Rev. E.M. Thompson concerning the Con-
ference Relations Committee. There was one addition under the speci-
fied Disciplinary paragraphs. Rev. C. Wade Goldston would be recom-
mended for retirement the first of January, 1977. The Conference gave its
approval.
Seminary Visitation: Rev. W.W. Sherman spoke for Rev. Paul Boone
giving the report of the Committee on Seminary Visitation. The report was
received by the Conference.
Committee on Pastoral Care: W.W Sherman gave the report of the
Committee on Pastoral Care. He emphasized that 14 people were helped

of Item 25 on page 37. The report was adopted by the Conference with
appreciation.

Paul M. Mickey was recognized by Herman Winberry to give the report.

pears in Section V. It was adopted by the Conference.
Report from the Duke Endowment and Ormond Research Center: Rev.
A.F. Fisher gave the report from the Duke Endowment indicating that
over one and a half million dollars had been spent in Rural North Carolina
for causes as determined by The Endowment. These have both spiritually
and materially strengthened the Church. $467,000 went to rural church
building programs. Fisher expressed regrets that Dr. Wilson Nesbitt could
168
not be present and then recognized Dr. Robert L. Wilson of the Ormond
Research Center for his report. Wilson emphasized the information
gathering work of the Center in order to help churches understand them-
selves. Rev. Cliff Shoaf, Director of Field Education for the Divinity
School, was then recognized for remarks. Shoaf reported that 58 students
would be serving in local churches this summer. This program, along with
the Ormond Research Center and the investigative and research services
offered therein and the Duke Endowment, providing financial under-
girding, constitutes a three-pronged approach to help the Church in the
North Carolina Conference. Fisher requested that all ministers and laity
call upon these agencies for help. Fisher concluded the presentation by
emphasizing the work of Dr. McMurry Richey and the Seminars for Con-
tinuing Education which have changed the week-long Seminars from the
summer to the month of May, a change which has met with great success.
Report of the Joint Committee on Disability: Rev. Amos H. Stone

W.W. Sherman in honor of his eight years of work on the Division of the
Ministry. Sherman responded with gracious words of appreciation.

giving for the Ecumenical Breakfast.
Introduction of Guest: Bishop Blackburn introduced Dr. Sam Wiley
of the NC Council of Churches.
Report of Board of Publications: Rev. A.F. Fisher spoke on behalf of
the North Carolina Christian Advocate. Fisher explained the traumatic
experience of changing from the Piedmont Press to Emporium. He stated
that Emporium was not able to sustain payments and the final sale of the
equipment to Media, Incorporated had been accomplished. Emporium
purchased the right to retain the name of the Piedmont Press and any
references to tax matters against that institution are against the former
Emporium Corporation and not against what was once the Conference's
Press. Rev. Alison Simonton was introduced as the new editor of the
Advocate. Fisher presented him as one with great credentials in the field
of Evangelism as well as Journalism and stated that he feels that this com-
bination will make for a great new Advocate. Simonton responded with
humility and appreciation for the opportunity to be editor of the North
Carolina Christian Advocate and recognized his predecessors. Simonton
outlined his program for moving throughout both conferences and pro-
moting the Advocate by preaching in churches from Murphy to Manteo
every Sunday. He stated that he wished to be an editor out in the field and
was prepared to do his best in reporting and editing and publishing the
best possible Advocate to serve our church in mission today. Simonton
asked that we look at pages 78 and 79 in The Conference Program and
Recommendations, 1976 with the hope that these recommendations would
be passed so that the Advocate might try to put itself on a self-sustaining
basis. The recommendations 1 through 10 on pages 78-79 were adopted.
Announcements : James Coile made announcements.
Motion: Rev. Harvey Lowrey moved "that a task force on the Native
American Church be appointed by the Bishop in consultation with a com-
mittee of Native Americans and immediately after this 1976 Annual
Conference to identify the needs of the Native American Church and to
make appropriate recommendations thereof to the Conference Council
on Ministries." The Motion was seconded and Lowry spoke to it briefly.
The Bishop ruled that this motion would have to remain on the table for
24 hours.
Order of the Day: The Bishop called for the Order of the Day to pro-
ceed to the Worship Service of the hour.

Number 294, "I Love Thy Kingdom, Lord." Bishop Blackburn again

Riverside Church, New York, for the third in a series of Conference ser-
mons. Dr. Campbell again preached to the Conference.
Benediction: The Bishop dismissed this session of the Conference with
the benediction.
THIRD DAY, AFTERNOON SESSION
Wednesday, June 9, 1976

proved by the Brotherhood the annual meeting was adjourned.
Conference Convened: The organist for the afternoon, Roger F. Searles,
Organist/Director of Music, St. Paul UM Church, Goldsboro, played the
prelude, "Suite for Organ," from French Baroque, arranged by Wolff.
Rev. Robert McKenzie led the singing and then led in prayer.
Matter of Personal Privilege: James Coile, Conference Secretary, noted
that this was the 50th anniversary of Rev. W. Carlton Wilson's becoming a
member of the Conference. Coile asked that he come and join him at the
Secretary's desk for the afternoon.
Question: Grier Garrick made the following motion: "I move that the
parties responsible for passing out political pamphlets on the floor of the
Conference be instructed to remove these pamphlets at the earliest op-
170
portunity and that they cease and desist all political activity on the floor of
the Conference, the halls and surrounding this auditorium and all halls
and meeting places being used by this Conference." It was so ordered by
the Conference.
Greetings from Scarritt College : Rev. James I. Warren brought words of
greetings from Scarritt College. He told the delegates that Scarritt belongs
to this Conference as much as to any other Conference.
Commission on Religion and Race: Bishop Blackburn called on Rev.
Preston Jones to make the report for the Commission. Jones expressed the
purpose of the Commission and recognized the members of the Com-
mission who had served in the past years. He emphasized the necessity for
continued vigilance and affirmative actions toward a Christian attitude
toward racial inclusiveness throughout the Conference. Jones's message
was an exhortation in inclusiveness which included several program recom-
mendations that had already been passed by the Council on Ministries.
Mr. Jones's report was accepted and then he introduced Dr. Bob Osborn to
present a document entitled, "The Wilmington Ten." Osborn stated that
he had hoped to present this document but that at this time he did not feel
that the presentation of the document would be appropriate and he wished
now to withdraw the document rather than to present it or speak to it. Dr.
Osborn was allowed to withdraw the document which had been previously
distributed to the delegates.
Report of the Task Force on the Black Church : Bishop Blackburn
presented Rev. Rufus H. Stark II to present the report of the Task Force.
Stark indicated that one of the positive spirits of the Conference and the
work of the Task Force has been such things as Rev. Preston Jones's being
appointed to a previously "white" church in Raleigh : Cokesbury. He felt
this was a great affirmation of how churches were increasingly feeling open
and accepting the joy of what openness means. A summary of the action of
the 1976 General Conference in regard to the Task Force was given. Stark
requested that the name of the Task Force be changed to "The Task Force
on Ethnic Minorities."
Before adoption of the report ; Mercer moved question the formation of
additional Task Forces that were not related to the Council on Ministries.
The Bishop clarified that the changing of the title of a Task Force was not
necessarily a commitment by the Conference if they voted in favor of the
report. The Stark report was adopted.
Point of Personal Privilege: Stark rose to a point of personal privilege to
add to the report of the Bolivian Mission Team.
Motion: Mrs. Tomlinson, Cherry Point Church, made the following
motion: "I move that all reports in the book of recommendations and
those distributed to the delegates not be read verbatum." It was passed.
Point of Personal Privilege: Rev. Langill Watson rose to request that the
Rules be suspended in order that Dr. Robert Osborn be allowed to speak
for several minutes. Watson stated that this would correct a somewhat
erroneous impression that the Conference had left with Dr. Osborn and
Rev. Preston Jones. The time was granted for seven minutes for Dr.
Osborn to make his presentation.
Report of Committee on Communications: Rev. John Hobbs gave the
171
report and moved Item 26, under H on page 37 of The Conference
Program, and Recommendations, 1976. It was approved.
Committee on Interpretation: Rev. Reginald Ponder spoke concerning
the Committee on Interpretation and indicated that now it was put under
a greater structure and was eliminated, but he did feel that in the past four
years they had worked definitively with John Meares in accomplishing a
good program of publicizing the causes of the church and the ministry of
Jesus Christ around the world.
Committee on Church Architecture : Rev. Kelly J. Wilson, Jr., spoke to
the work of the Committee on Church Architecture and indicated that the
services of the Committee had been offered to churches throughout the
Conference. He pointed out that there was no requirement that a church
consult the Committee on Church Architecture but simply a service that
was being offered to those in the process of planning or building.
Report of the Commission on the Status and Role of Women : Bishop
Blackburn introduced Mrs. Sam A. Dunn to present the report. The
report was adopted with appreciation. (See Reports, Section V.)
Report of the Committee on Parsonage Standards: Mrs. James A.
Auman brought the report. Mrs. Auman stated that they had studied the
attitudes toward the parsonages with the help of the Ormond Center and
Dr. Robert Wilson and compiled a booklet which had been distributed.
The second project was the compilation of a guide to the building and fur-
nishing of parsonages and it has been distributed for the past two years.
Mrs. Auman referred to the importance of each parsonage family's being
good stewards of the property that they inhabit, keeping it clean and
passing it on in good condition. This concluded her report and it was
adopted without dissent.
Division of Stewardship: Rev. John T. Maides was presented by Bishop
Blackburn to lead in the presentation of the report of the Division of
Stewardship. Maides spoke to the priority of tithing as being supreme in
the work of the Division. Maides stated that he believes in planning a
program of stewardship, that goes on all year long. He sees the necessity of
encouraging planning for the tithing type of stewardship that is necessary
to undergird the work of our Conference and in a more far-reaching sense
the work of the Lord Jesus Christ throughout the world.
Maides recognized Rev. C.F. Grill who spoke first of the program put on
at Duke in connection with the Western North Carolina Conference con-
cerning the Bicentennial of Methodism of the Carolina Circuit. Then he
spoke to the employment on March 31, of Dr. Jerald Pierce to represent
the agencies of the church and the local church in terms of helping them
establish patterns of constructive and cooperative giving. Dr. Pierce works
out of an office in his home and yet works throughout the local churches
across the Conference to interpret the needs of our agencies and of our
churches and works with people in the organization of local committees on
Wills. Grill expressed the hope that Jerry Pierce will become a household
name in Estate Planning in Eastern North Carolina. Grill presented Pierce
to the Conference as Director of Deferred Giving. Pierce expressed his
hope that all the delegates had seen the exhibits in the Student Union
Building and further expressed his delight as he entered upon this new
172
work in the Conference. He spoke to the purpose of Deferred Giving as a
means of keeping instructions from withering on the vine in the future as
they are endowed in the present. He asked for the opportunity to offer his
assistance to each of the members of our Conference. Bishop Blackburn
accepted Dr. Pierce's remarks and the report from The Conference
Program and Recommendations, 1976 was adopted.
Report of the Council on Finance and Administration: Bishop Black-
burn recognized Owen Fitzgerald to present the report because of the ab-
sence of the Chairperson. Fitzgerald expressed appreciation for the work of
Mrs. Marjorie Mann who serves on the General Council on Finance. Fit
zgerald made corrections to the report, on pages 52-58 of the Book of
Recommendations. To Section I of the report he added the following:
Following the recent session of the General Conference, the North
Carolina Conference has received two new annual apportionments for the
quadrennium, 1977-80, as follows:
Missional Priorities Fund, $78,205
Mass Communications Fund, $1 1 ,375
The Council on Finance and Administration recommends that these funds
be apportioned separately to the charges on the same formula as the
Ministerial Education Fund, Black College Fund, and In-
terdenominational Cooperation Fund. The council reviewed and approves
the proposal of the Board of Trustees of the Methodist Retirement Home
to sell bonds to finance permanent loan for the Health Care Center in
Durham and the new Retirement Home in Lumberton providing there
shall be no solicitation through local churches except for sale of the bonds.
The Council on Finance and Administration nominates Charles K.
McAdams as Treasurer-Business Administrator for the quadrennium,
1977-80. Fitzgerald pointed out that the Conference had already elected
McAdams treasurer.
Motion: H. Langill Watson moved that the Mass Communication Fund
of $11,375 be included in the Single Askins. Reginald Ponder spoke in
favor of the Watson Amendment. W.M. Jeffries moved to include the
Missional Priorities Fund in the Single Figure. Kermit Braswell spoke in
favor of placing both the Communications and Missional Priorities Funds
in the Single Figure. Ponder spoke in favor of the Jeffries amendment. The
question was called on the Jeffries amendment and 257 for the amend-
ment. James Noseworthy moved that all Missional Priority moneys be
"lumped together" into one small apportionment. With an explanation
that this already was done, Noseworthy withdrew his motion. A vote was
taken on the Watson motion and it was approved, placing the Mass Com-
munication Fund in the Single Figure Askings.
Question: Ed Earnhardt asked about the increase in D.S. salaries and

Ministries motion back to the floor. This was the amendment which was

table lost. Bob Wallace offered an amendment to the resolution adding at
the end the words "with the present members." It was seconded. Ted

ference was too "hung up" on placing a black person in the Methodist
Building. Stark said this was not the case but that it had been difficult to
find the right person. Ponder offered a substitute to the Wallace motion,
the addition of the words "by the addition of not more than one staff
person." It was seconded and Grier Garrick said he would accept the sub-
stitute. Bob McKenzie moved the previous question on all that was before

to read, "Any Equitable Salary supplement will be terminated immedi-
ately upon a full-time pastors not continuing full-time pastoral employ-
ment. Such a pastor may be reinstated at any time upon returning to
full-time ministerial status." The Committee on Equitable salaries accept-
ed this without vote. Clyde Cheezem under Section B of I wanted to re-
move the term "$800" and change it to $1500. The Cheezem amendment
was withdrawn. Denny Wise asked what the projected cost in the increase
in equitable salaries would be to the Conference. Bailey answered that he
did not know. Wise moved that we defer action on the report for one year
to see the effect on the Conference budget. It was seconded. Fisher spoke

change in structure should lay on the table for 24 hours. Secretary Coile

and was an amendment to a motion that was made the day before. In
order to avoid technical difficulties, the Bishop asked for a suspension of
the Rules and the Conference ordered same. The Forehand motion was
adopted.
176

mission would accept the Goldston amendment and it would be added to
the report by the secretary.
Motion: Tim Langford presented the following motion: "We, the
members of the Youth/Young Adult Caucus, feel that older adults should

composition from the older adult audience and other persons selected by
the Executive Committee of the Conference Division of Education ; it shall
be organized by October 1, 1976." It was seconded. It was adopted.
Report of the Board of Pensions: Bishop Blackburn presented L. Mer-
ritt Jones to present the report which appears in The Conference Program
and Recommendation, 1976, on pages 70-77. These were moved. Jones
recognized Rev. Kermit Wheeler who made corrections in years of service
for some conference ministers. Wheeler spoke to the matter at hand. (For
full text and corrections, see Section V in the Journal.) The report was

the amount in the report to read '15c per mile for the first 15,000 miles
and 12c per mile for all above.' " Sabiston stated that the purpose of his
motion was to cause the formula to continue to match the Internal Rev-
177
enue Service Formula. Cable explained that this was a philosophy and not
a requirement and that the committee did not feel that after one year it
was time to try and change an amount that was already considered exces-
sive by many. E.R. Porter spoke in favor of the Sabiston motion. Bishop
Blackburn inquired if the Conference would accept the Sabiston motion
as an addition to the report rather than as a substitute. Al Fisher requested
the privilege of the floor, stating that he felt that it was in order to be an
amendment rather than a substitute. The Bishop ruled that it was an
amendment and it was adopted. The report of the Committee on Parish
Travel was adopted as amended.

meet at Methodist College again in 1977. The proposal of Pearce was

sary of the founding of Duke University. The call to order came after the

need for strength of Christ in our lives. At the end of the Litany, the

been visited upon us in our celebration.

man.

Israel and the deliverance of the nation of Israel out of bondage in Egypt.

Elijah, Hosea, Jeremiah, Second Isaiah.

ion was interpreted in song and dance and the singing by the conferences
of the hymn "Amen, Amen."
The history of the church was traced from the first to the eighteenth
century. The roll of the saints was called as two robed figures held candles
on stage.
Symbols and cathederals of the church's traditions were used in the
multi-media presentation. A banner of John Wesley on horseback was
shown and explained. The life of Wesley was narrated in monologue with
interpretive dance as a background. Reggie Cooke closed this section by
singing "A Man Named Wesley Passed This Way."
The conferences stood and sang "O For A Thousand Tongues to Sing."
The life of Francis Asbury was narrted and portrayed. He was called
"the prophet of the long road." The life of the circuit was included in the
portrayal of Asbury's work. This section ended with the Bluegrass En-
semble's playing a song entitled "North Carolina, The Goodliest Land
Under the Cope of Heaven."
The history of the church in America was related. The conference then
recessed for a picnic lunch on the grounds. The conference stood and sang
the "Doxology."
AFTERNOON SESSION:
The afternoon session began with a concert by the N.C. A. and T.
State University Fellowship Gospel Chorus. The Chorus was directed by
Yvonne Smith.
Reverend Robert Young made announcements.
As the members of the conferences and visitors had reentered the
stadium for the afternoon session, each was given a small piece of rock.
Roland Mullinix, narrator for the program, asked if all had a rock. Those
who did not were then given one.
The Carolina Circuit Troupe sang "We're Marching to Zion." This
segment of the presentation portrayed the Camp Meeting Scene. Gerry
Van Hoy Barker accompanied the presentation on the dulcimer. A brief
history of the various camp grounds across the state was narrated. Miss
Barker sang "Where Will I Shelter My SheepTonight?"

Moses as soloist. An interpretive dance accompanied the song.

Land." He shared some of the stories of the Methodist itinerants.

occurred in Methodism in the past two centuries. The N.C. A and T.
State University Gospel Chorus sang "Look-A How Dey Done My Lord,"
accompanied by an interpretive dance. To emphasize the division caused
by slavery, Thomas Moore and the N.C. A. and T. Chorus sang "Oh
Freedom."

interpretive dance.
The 1939 union was celebrated. The Carolina Circuit Troupe sang the
"Halleluiah Chorus." The conferences stood.
An audio visual showing the 200 years of tragedy was shown, to remind
us that all is still not well in this land. We were reminded that we are
"God's people on the way." The conferences were challenged to be the
church "redemptive and crucified" for all mankind. Melinda Wilkinson
sang "If We Only Have Love." An audio visual presentation showed the
various areas in which love is necessary if the church is to be the church.
Dean Langford of the Divinity School expressed appreciation to the
committee who prepared the bicentennial celebation. Dean Langford
presented Bishop Taylor and Bishop Allen.
Dean Langford explained the rock that had been given to each. The
rock is the symbol of "Jesus Christ the cornerstone." It also represents the
forefathers, the foundation of the church. The rock reminds us of our
heritage, our today, and the future.

DR.JOHNCLINE
John Cline was born near Belwood, North Carolina, February 4, 1892,
the son of David Maxwell and Sarah Amanda Carpenter Cline. He died
in his 84th year, June 20, 1975, at the Methodist Retirement Home in
Durham after many years of declining health. Funeral services were con-
ducted June 22, 1975 at the Carthage United Methodist Church, Carth-
age, North Carolina, by the pastor, the Rev. David L. Moe, Bishop
Robert M. Blackburn, and the writer, a former pastor of the Carthage
church.
In 1917, Dr. Cline received the A.B. degree from Trinity College. On
October 2nd of that year, he was married to Kitty Alda Plott," who sur-
vives him. To that union were born three children who also survive: Kitty
Ida (Mrs. J. Findley Cox) of Richmond, Virginia; John Maxwell, district
superintendent of the Rocky Mount District of the North Carolina An-
nual Conference; and Sarah Evelyn (Mrs. Herman Roach) of
Lexington, North Carolina. Also surviving are his sisters, Mrs. Irene
Moseley of Simpsonville, South Carolina; Mrs. Madge Young of Taylors
ville, North Carolina; Mrs. Sue Robinson of Columbia, South Carolina;
Mrs. Edith Herter of Newton, North Carolina; and a brother, G.B. Cline
of Goldsboro, North Carolina.
In the fall of 1917, Dr. Cline was admitted to the Western North
Carolina Conference. He served the following appointments: Ansonville,
Webster-Cullowee, Lewisville, Forsyth Circuit, Glen Alpine, Cool
Springs Circuit, Troutman, Thomasville Circuit, and Proxmity Church,
Greensboro. In 1936, he transferred to the North Carolina Conference.
He served Fifth Avenue, Wilmington. In 1939, he went to Branson
Memorial in Durham, which he served to 1945. While in Durham, he
studied at the Duke University Graduate School, and he received the
A.M. degree in 1940, his thesis being a history of the first 25 years of The
South Atlantic Quarterly. While serving at Carthage (1945-1950), he
completed the requirements for the doctor of philosophy degree at Duke.
The degree was awarded in 1948, his dissertation being on Hawthorne
and the Bible.
It was during his Carthage pastorate that Dr. Cline fell victim to
Parkinson's Disease which forced him into an early retirement in 1950.
He and his beloved Kitty made their home in Carthage until early 1974
246
when they moved to the Methodist Retirement Home in Durham. After
his retirement, Dr. Cline was named as minister emeritus of the Carthage
United Methodist Church.
During his many years in Carthage, Dr. Cline remained active in civic
affairs as long as he was able, being an active member of the Masonic
Lodge and the Rotary Club. He maintained a faithful and regular at-
tendance at the worship services of the church up through the summer of
1973, even though he had to be carried into the church for a period of
several years.
It was this writer's privilege to have served the Carthage Church from
1969 until 1974, and during those years to come to know and to love Dr.
Cline, not only as a brother in the ministry, but as a valued neighbor and
friend only two doors away. Dr. John Cline was the most beloved minister
ever to serve the Carthage Church, and whenever anyone in that pleasant
community referred to "the preacher," they meant Dr. Cline. Indeed he
was "the preacher," "the pastor," "the minister" to that whole com-
munity.
Pallbears at the funeral were six stalwart men from the Carthage
Church, six of the finest Christian laymen this writer has been privileged
to know, six Christian gentlemen, all of whom, testify to the impact and
influence of Dr. Cline's life and ministry upon their lives — Laverne B.
Womack, Rudolph Womack, J. Howard Myrick, W.B. ("Webb") Davis,
Judson K. Rea, III, and Walter H. Spivey.
It is indeed singular that since Dr. Cline first came to Carthage, four
ministers of the Gospel have come from the Carthage Church, one of
whom will be admitted to our conference in 1976. These men will give
beautiful testimony to Dr. Cline's witness and influence.
Dr. Cline was a man in whom vital piety and sound learning were com-
bined in a creative way. He was a man of prayer, an eloquent and sound
preacher of His Master's Word. His worship for a Lord whom he regard-
ed as the Author of Truth inspired him to seek the truth, and to pro-
claim the truth in both his life and his scholarship. His master's thesis
contains what many regard as the best account of that landmark event in
the effort to keep free the search for truth that is protected by academic
freedom, the well known Bassett case at Trinity College in the early
1900's.
His piety and scholarship manifest itself in the creative work of his
poetry. His church bulletins were enhanced by his own poetry, some of
which was collected in a volume entitled The Lights of Home.
Dr. Cline suffered a great deal from his ill health. Yet, he maintained
his sunny disposition and ready wit. The last few years found it almost
impossible for him to speak; yet his smile, and the friendly twinkle in his
clear blue eyes spoke volumes in care, concern, and compassion.
He wrote himself:
The sun has set, the light is gone;
The plans I made in early dawn
Fade into broken dreams.
Is this the end, or will life smile
247
And loved ones speak to me, the while
New morning beams?
Yes, rosy light will kiss these eyes,
And breezes fresh from waking skies
Will whisper in these ears;
New plans will come for work and praise
Life will go on in grander ways,
All free from fears.
Past days of pain will leave my mind
Their bitter tears no longer blind,
Within God's sunrise glow ;
Tonight I'll trust the dawn to see,
Have dear ones walk again with me —
Then we shall know!
Dr. Cline always maintained the highest ideals and standards. At his
funeral was read the passage from Phillippians 4:8: "Finally, brethren,
whatever is true, whatever is honorable, whatever is just, whatever is
pure, whatever is lovely, whatever is gracious, if there is any excellence, if
there is anything worthy of praise, think about these things." This was
Dr. Cline's life among us — reminding us of this. The Interpreter's Bible
points out that the word "think" is not a strong enough English trans-
lation; thus commentators have said that we think about these things in
the sense that we are calculating the cost of committing ourselves to these
things in life and action. This is what Dr. Cline sought to do.
In the inspiring song from the play, "Man of La Mancha," that has
come to be known as "The Impossible Dream" are the words:
To dream the impossible dream,
To fight the unbeatable foe. . .
To run where the brave dare not go,
To right the unrightable wrong. . .
To try, when your arms are too weary,
To reach the unreachable star.
This is my quest, to follow that star,
No matter how hopeless, no matter how far,
To fight for the right without question or pause,
To be willing to march into hell for a heavenly cause!
And the world will be better for this,
That one man, scorned and covered with scars,
Still strove, with his last ounce of courage,
To reach the unreachable stars.
Dr. John Cline, in spite of a helpless and hopeless physical condition,
covered with the scars of much suffering, still strove with his last ounce of
courage to reach the unreachable stars — he lived a life calculated to
248
count the cost of committing himself to whatever is true, honorable, just,
pure, lovely, gracious, and excellent. Such a life inspired us who knew
him because he sought to show us Jesus Christ, who abolished death and
brought life and immortality to light through the gospel. This makes us
persuaded that the sting of death is erased, and helps us know that we can
be steadfast, unmovable, always abounding in the work of the Lord
which is never in vain! Hallelujah!

WILLIAM STANLEY POTTER
William Stanley Potter was born in Stet, Missouri, November 6, 1904,
the son of the Reverend William Oliver Grafton and Myrtle Mae
(Moore) Potter. His father served the Missouri Conference for 45 years.
He attended Central College, Fayette, Missouri graduating in 1925.
Having earlier committed himself to a life of service in the Methodist
ministry, Stanley attended he Divinity School of Yale University. He
received his B.D. in 1928. In June of 1959, his alma mater, Central
College, bestowed upon William Stanley Potter the honorary degree of
Doctor of Divinity.
Dr. Potter began his ministry in the Missouri Conference being Ad-
mitted on Trial September 5, 1924 and was received into Full Con-
nection, September 17, 1929. He received his Deacon's orders September
22, 1929 and was ordained Elder August 30, 1931. He served the
following appointments in the Missouri Conference prior to his transfer
to the North Carolina Conference :
McCredie Circuit, Missouri September 1 924-September, 1 925
Student, Y-le University September 1925-September 1928
Milan, Missouri September 1928-September 1932
Plattsburg, Missouri September 1932-September 1934
Salisbury, Missouri September 1 934-May 1 936
On May 1, 1936, he transferred to the North Carolina Annual Con-
ference and was appointed to Home Memorial Methodist Church in
Clayton. Listed below are the appointments Dr. Potter served in the
North Carolina Conference :
249
Home Memorial, Clayton May 1936-November 1939
Ann Street, Beaufort November 1939-November 1945
Hayes Barton, Raleigh November 1945-November 1948
First, Henderson November 1948-November 1952
Haymount, Fayetteville November 1952-November 1954
Steele Street, Sanford November 1954-June 1962
Queen Street, Kinston June 1962-June 1968
Mebane June 1 968-June 1 970
William Stanley Potter retired from the itinerant ministry June, 1970.
He and Mrs. Potter moved back to Sanford to their lovely new home at
620 West Chisholm Street. Wanting to stay active and being so well-loved
by the people of Sanford, Dr. Potter was elected Minister Emeritus of
Steele Street Church soon after his retirement. He served in this capacity
until the time of his death on August 10, 1975, in his home. Funeral ser-
vices were held in St. Luke Church (formerly Steele Street) on August 12
at 11:00 A.M. with the minister, Reginald W. Ponder, officiating. The
Reverend Edgar B. Fisher, a schoolmate and devoted friend of Stanley
Potter, assisted in the service. Interment was in Buffalo Cemetery at San-
ford.
William Stanley Potter was married to Marion Louise Smith of
Amityville, Long Island, New York, June 26, 1929. Mrs. Potter is a
graduate of Mount Holyoke College, South Hadley, Mass. They had four
children: William Stanley, Jr., an insurance executive in Roanoke
Rapids; Elizabeth Louise (Mrs. William Spencer Davis) who lives in
Springfield, Virginia; Frank Grafton with Brodt Music Company in
Charlotte; and James Richard with Wachovia Bank in Charlotte. The
Potters have six grandchildren.
During his distinguished career, Stanley served the North Carolina
Conference on The Long Range Planning Committee (Chairman 1964-
1968), Board of Education, Board of Evangelism, Board of Ministry,
Commission on World Service and Finance, and at the time of his death
was a member of the Division of Higher Education. He served on the
Board of Trustees of High Point College from 1956 until his death. He
was an evangelist having received more than 1,100 persons into the
Church by Profession of Faith. He was interested in Christian Higher
Education, too, and was instrumental in the significant advancement of
the North Carolina Annual Conference in this area.
His avocational interests included spectator sports, gardening, travel,
and music.
At the time of his death, I wrote the following words to the people of
St. Luke Church:
William Stanley Potter no longer stands with us, but he has left
us a legacy which I would like to mention. First, he loved the
Church. Though he was aware of its flaws, he believed in the Church as
the mediating body of God's grace and Jesus' love. Second, he loved
the people. Stanley Potter was a Pastor, a shepherd of the flock. No
minister I have ever known was more attentive to the needs of
people than he. Third, he loved his family. Dr. Potter was a family
250
man. His leisure activities revolved around his family. He received
strength from them and they from him.
Now, in his hour of victory, he would say to us, "Love the Church!
Love the people! Love your family!
As we honor his memory, may we embody his virtues.

HAROLD REYNOLD BEEDE
1905-1975
Harold Reynold Beede was born June 11, 1905 in Exeter, New Hamp-
shire, the son of Herbert B. Beede and Harriet Brown Beede. He died in
Raleigh on September 6, 1975. He felt the call to the Christian ministry
in the Advent Christian Church and his first churches were the Advent
Christian Church in Port Clyde, Maine and Athol, Massachusetts. (1926-
1929)
In 1929 he joined the New England Conference of the Evangelical
United Brethren Church. He served churches in Lynn (1929-33) , Everett
(1933-35), Medford (1935-42), Somerville (1942-48), Lowell (1948-
49), and Cambridge (1949-57), all in the State of Massachusetts. He
served as a part of that conference until the Evangelical United Brethren
Church merged with the Methodist Church to form the United Methodist
Church in 1969. When he retired in 1970 he had served 41 years in the
United Methodist connection plus 3 years as Advent Christian pastor, a
total of 44 years active ministry.
Harold graduated from Berkshire Christian College in Boston in 1953.
He continued his studies at Gordon -Con well Theological Seminary also
in Boston. In 1954 Brother Beede received the appointment to become
full time chaplain at Danvers State Hospital in Danvers, Massachusetts.
Prior to this time he had been part time chaplain at two nearby hospitals,
Mt. Auburn and Cambridge City Hospital. His competence was
recognized in 1955 when he was named Fellow in the College of
Chaplains of the American Protestant Hospital Association. He was a
fully certified Chaplain Supervisor under the Association for Clinical
Pastoral Education. For many years he conducted a twelve week course in
251
Clinical Pastoral Training for seminary students and pastors. He was a
part of the field staff of Gordon Divinity School, with students assigned to
his supervision for clinical experience.
In 1964 a beautiful chapel and training center was dedicated at Dan-
vers State Hospital, the first protestant chapel at a state institution in
Massachusetts. Chaplain Beede was the person having prime respon-
sibility for the inspiration of the idea, the obtaining of funds and the
planning that led to the final construction. Chaplain Beede was highly
respected in the field of clinical pastoral work. He was much in demand
as a speaker and workshop leader in New England. Upon the occasion of
his retirement in 1970, the Massachusetts Council of Churches presented
Chaplain Beede with a beautiful illuminated citation stating in part :
"Avid, warm, cheerful, dignified, generous, kind, resourceful,
creative and capable are words used in describing Chaplain Beede
by patients, fellow chaplains, associates in other healing disciplines,
his students, and many others who have come to know him as their
friend."
Brother Beed's first marriage was in 1926 to Clara Gillmore Morey of
Whitman, Massachusetts. They had three children: Ruth M., now Mrs.
Crandall L. Vail of Shawnee, Kansas; David E., of Reading,
Massachusetts and Charles H., of East Brunswick, New Jersey. Clara
Beede was afflicted with multiple sclerosis and was increasingly an invalid
until her death.
Brother Beede remarried, this time to Ruth Stanton Lyerly, and two
daughters by her earlier marriage were added to the family. They are:
Ellen L., now Mrs. R.B. Barker of Hockessin, Delaware; and Melie L.,
now Mrs. E.M. Ablang of Elkton, Maryland.
In 1970 Harold Beede transferred his membership to the North
Carolina Annual Conference and retired in Raleigh, N.C. He became
part time Pastor for Visitation of Fairmont United Methodist Church,
where he was a much beloved part of the fellowship. He taught regularly
in the Wesley Bible Class of which he was a faithful member until the
time of his death. During his retirement years he developed close per-
sonal ties with fellow pastors in the Raleigh area. Many saw him as an ex-
perienced friend with whom they could easily talk. His sure faith and love
strengthened many of his brothers in times of stress.
In 1969, Brother Beede suffered a serious heart attack. He experienced
good recovery and was able to be active until recurrence of the problem
restricted him during the last year of his life. On September 4, 1975 he
was stricken again and this time he sensed that he would not recover.
Some three hours before his death he took my hand with firm grip and his
magnificent smile shared with me the mighty confidence of his faith.
I officiated for his funeral at 11 : 00 A.M. on September 8 at Fairmont
United Methodist Church. It was a time of genuine thanksgiving to God
for the victorious spirit of his life. Burial was held at Montlawn Cemetery.
Chaplain Beede's last class of students, in clinical pastoral education,
prior to his retirement in 1970 presented him with a hand painted picture
of his beloved chapel and a picture album. On the first page was written
252
these sentiments :
"Some men leave behind them brass plaques; others leave living
memorials."
The lives surrounding Harold Reynold Beede attest to the truth of
these words.

RUSSELL H.CAUDILL
Russell Horton Caudill was born at Helton, North Carolina, May 8,
1901, the son of the Reverend James Wilson Caudill and Callie Weaver
Caudill. He died October 23, 1975 in his home in Fuquay-Varina.
After graduation from high school at Jefferson, North Carolina, Mr.
Caudill attended Trinity College of Duke University, where he graduated
in 1927. He then enrolled in the Duke Divinity School and was graduated
with the Bachelor of Divinity degree.
While at Trinity College and Duke Divinity School, Mr. Caudill served
as Director of Swimming.
On February 16, 1924, Mr. Caudill and Miss Estelle Channell Rose of
Seaboard, North Carolina, were married. Three children were born to
this couple. They are Mrs. Wayne Peterson (Venita Estelle) of Mat-
tapoisette, Massachusetts, James Russell Caudill, of Fuquay-Varina, and
Chaplain Charles Clayton Caudill, of Langley Air Force Base, Virginia.
Mr. Caudill was admitted into the Western North Carolina Conference
and ordained deacon at the session in Asheville, in 1931 . In 1933, he was
ordained elder.
As the son of a Methodist preacher, Mr. Caudill had love for the Lord,
love for others, and love for the family instilled in him in the parsonage
home. There was an early indication of what his family meant to him
when, in 1922, he wrote this poem about his father.
He it was who marked the pathway
That our feet so soon must tread ;
And we now shall try to follow
In the way our Father led.
253
Papa preached the blessed gospel —
Told the story of the Cross ;
Tried to win some souls for Jesus ;
Caring not the sum it cost.
Now may we as faithful children
Tread the road that leads to fame;
Takingjesus as our Savior,
Be an honor to his name.
Mr. Caudill early came to know the Lord in a meaningful way, as his
poem "Redemption" shows.
Out of the depth of sin and shame,
Dear Lord, I come to Thee.
Thee, who hast promised to reclaim
Lord, wilt Thou pardon me.
From all the sin that binds my soul,
I now salvation seek.
Lord, Jesus, speak and make me whole ;
Oh, wilt Thou only speak.
Could I but see with vision clear,
The Spirit, Guide Divine!
Could I but know that Thou art near,
And I forever Thine.
Thy precious promise I believe,
Thy Spirit's power I feel.
My soul of Thee has been received
While at Thy cross I kneel.
As a pastor, Mr. Caudill's burning passion was to serve God and to
serve men. It was generally known in communities that he served that he
would do his very best to meet whatever need one might have. His family
was never surprised to have hungry travelers join them for meals, or to see
Mr. Caudill share clothes with people he thought needed them more.
Mr. Caudill was not just concerned with physical needs, however. He
led many people to the Lord.
Often, he seemed to be prejudiced in favor of the underdog and the
disadvantaged. And this often caused him and his family to be hurt.
He was a very simple man. He acquired few earthly possessions, and
did not want them. His philosophy was: Don't worry about tomorrow;
God will provide.
Mr. Caudill served the following appointments in the Western North
Carolina Conference: Hot Springs; Biltmore Methodist Church,
254
Asheville; Central Terrace Methodist Church, Winston-Salem; and
Smyre Station, Gastonia. He located in 1937, and moved to Durham. He
lived and worked in the Durham area four years, and then moved to
Wilmington, where he was Youth Director for the Y.M.C.A.
Mr. Caudill's first appointment in the North Carolina Conference was
in 1947, when he was appointed to the Town Creek Methodist Church,
Wilmington. His appointments in the North Carolina Conference were:
Town Creek, 1947-1951; Princeton, 1951-1953; Clayton, 1953-1956;
Westover, Raleigh, 1956-1959; East Rockingham, 1959-1962; Spring
Lake, 1962-1966. He retired in 1966 and moved to Fuquay-Varina. After
retirement, he preached briefly at Elizabeth Church, near Smithfield.
Shortly after retirement, however, he suffered a stroke, and was confined
to his bed most of the time, until his death in 1975.

DR. CHANCIE DeSHIELD BARCLIFT
1902-1975
A celebrated American clergyman, Joseph R. Sizoo, once declared that
"those who live with a faith in the God of the incredible are always vin-
dicated by history."
The life of Chancie DeShield Barclift bears him out! God worked in the
life of an ordinary country boy from Perquimans County and molded
him into "the Master's man." This extraordinary man helped to shape
the course of North Carolina Methodism for fifty years.
His ministry-from 1925 to 1975 -spanned years of depression and
prosperity, peacetime and war. He experienced both the agony and the
ecstasy of this significant period of American Methodist history!
Chancie Barclift was born on June 22, 1902 in Durant's Neck in
Perquimans County. Following his memorial service at Trinity Church in
Durham he was laid to rest in the picturesque New Hope Methodist
Church cemetery in that same community where he was born.
The Durham Morning Herald, in reporting his December 9, 1975
death in a front page article called Barclift "a friend and close advisor of
Bishops... one who was an outstanding preacher who used the purple
255
prose of the old school." Describing Dr. Barclift as a "gravely voiced
Methodist minister who prided himself on preaching without notes" the
writer noted that since his 1974 retirement he had devoted his time to
growing roses and visiting with the younger preachers whom he had ad-
vised during their Duke Divinity days.
After a year at Asbury College where he was licensed to preach on May
12, 1924, he transferred to Duke University where he received his A.B.
degree in 1927. On Thanksgiving Day, November 27, 1930 he married
Thelma Inez Cole of Hamlet. They were the parents of two daughters,
Margaret Louise (Mrs. Fred Barnes Hight, Jr.) of Raleigh and Thelma
Cole (Mrs. T. Harold Crowder, Jr.) of South Boston, Virginia. Both
daughters survive as do six grandchildren.
Chancie joined the North Carolina Conference on November 17, 1925.
He was ordained deacon in 1927 and elder in 1929. His pastorates in-
cluded Roxboro Circuit, 1926-30; Leasburg Circuit, 1930-31; North
Gates Circuit, 1931-35; Durham Circuit, 1935-38; Fifth Avenue,
Wilmington, 1938-45; First Church, Henderson, 1945-48; District
Superintendent, Wilmington, 1948-52; Trinity, Durham, 1952-56;
District Superintendent, Durham, 1956-52; Hay Street, Fayetteville,
1962-68; District Superintendent, Durham, 1968-74; retired, June,
1974.
During his long and distinguished ministry he served in leadership roles
in the Annual Conference, Jurisdiction and General Church. He was
elected to the General and Jurisdictional Conferences of 1952, 1956,
1960, 1964, 1966, 1968, 1970 and 1972. He was especially amazed that
his fellow pastors elected him in 1972 at the age of 70 to the Conference
in Atlanta. Bishop William R. Cannon announced that "the invincible
Dr. Barclift has been elected."
The measure of the man's humanity is seen in the fact that he did not
receive his B.D. degree when he finished Duke Divinity School because he
failed to write his thesis. While serving the first term as Durham District
Superintendent, he completed his requirements for the seminary degree
and in 1960 was awarded the Bachelor of Divinity. In 1953 High Point
College conferred upon him an honorary Doctor of Divinity degree.
Prior to retirement, some two hundred and fifty friends gathered on
May 2, 1974 at Trinity Church to honor Chancie and Thelma Barclift.
The occasion brought together members of former churches, ministers
who had served alongside him, and tributes from the Rev. Charles Mer-
cer, Bishop Robert M. Blackburn and Dr. Robert E. Cushman. The oc-
casion was the celebration of a distinguished career, a noble character, a
man of trust and integrity, encourager of the young, confidant of
bishops, friend of the elderly.
When Bishop Blackburn called me in Detroit to tell of his death, I
knew that I had lost not only my "father in the faith" but one of life's
dearest and most cherished friends!
Death stilled a vibrant voice whose tongue had uttered in classic
language the simple truths of an Eternal Gospel. The magic of his
eloquence was a native gift cultivated by an inner genius and intense faith
256
and devotion to Jesus, our Lord and Saviour!
I last visited Chancie and Thelma during the Duke Pastor's School in
late October, 1975. The joy and fellowship of that final visit I have
relived many times. The example he set ; the legacy he left ; the influence
which still lingers; the things he taught which will long bear fruit in a
multitude of lives... all will be remembered by a host of ministers and
laity!
Hundreds gathered at Trinity Church in Durham on December 1 1 to
praise God for his life and ministry. Bishop Robert M. Blackburn, the
Rev. H. Langill Watson, who succeeded Barclift on the Durham District,
and the Rev. Paul Carruth led the service. Music was by the Trinity
Church choir.
The sentiments that I hold are shared by countless others and to his
memory I quote these lines of the poet :
Out of the strain of the doing
Into the peace of the done.
Out of the thirst of pursuing
Into the rapture of won.
Out of the pale dusk into dawn
Out of all wrong into Tightness
We from these fields shall be gone
"Nay" say the Saints, "Not gone but come
Into eternity's harvest home."

GEORGE MARYLAND KELLEY
1888-1975
George Maryland Kelley, Sr. was born June 6, 1888, in Kelly, North
Carolina. He was the son of the late George Memory Kelley and Ada Bliz-
zard Kelley. Brother Kelley had laboured joyfully in the Master's service
as minister for more than 65 years.
257
After graduating from Magnolia High School he became a self-
educated person and eventually was granted a Doctor of Divinity degree
from Midwestern Divinity School. While in his early twenties he and his
first wife went to China as Pentecostal missionaries. He served in Kwan
Tung Province near Canton in South China. Although his first wife
passed away in China he remained there for over 40 years and was forced
to leave when the Communists took over mainland China in 1950. He
spoke fluent Chinese and was a member of the faculty of Ling Nam
University in Canton for some time during his stay there.
When he returned to America he began preaching in his little home
community of Kelly and later in several churches within the area. He had
compassion for all people and it was not unusual for this man of God to
literally give those in need the shirt from off his back.
He was assigned the Stumpy Point work and then "retired" in
Whiteville only to continue serving churches in Bladen and Columbus
counties. Some of his places of his service were: Peace, Pireway,
Evergreen, Bluefield, Wooten's Chapel, and Whiteville.
Active to his last day of life, Brother Kelley felt a keen passion for win-
ning souls. He helped to organize and direct the Upper Room Christian
Fellowship which became one of his favorite local projects. He was
physically active on the day of his earthly departure and refused many
times to admit any discomfort or to complain because of his advanced
years. Instead his constant testimony was: "This is the day which the
Lord hath made; we will rejoice and be glad in it."
George M. Kelley died on Friday, December 12, 1975, in the Colum-
bus County Hospital in Whiteville. Final rites were held on Sunday,
December 14, by District Superintendent James A. Auman, Paul W.
Boone, and Kenneth Worthington, who had just recently entered the
ministry of the church. This being one final example of the influential
ministry of Brother Kelley.
He is survived by his wife: Mrs. Bessie Baldwin Kelley; sons: Lt. Com-
mander Paul W. Kelley, Retired, of Charleston, S.C.; Dr. Hudson G.
Kelley, Indianapolis, Ind., Dr. William K. Kelley also of Indianapolis,
and Dr. John S. Kelley of Whiteville; and a sister, Mrs. Calvin Davis of
Calypso.
It is far beyond our imagination to span the years of time of this man's
service to Christ but is within the great framework of personal demon-
stration of Christ's love for the often neglected person that George M.
Kelley's memory will live on.
Thou, my everlasting portion,
More than friend or life to me;
All along my pilgrim journey,
Savior, let me walk with Thee.
Paul W. Boone

GRAHAM STANFORD EUBANK
1909-1976
Graham Stanford Eubank was born February 17, 1909 in a small house
near Maysville. His early years were spent in the farm environment of
that time and area. Church and school were early important dimensions
of his life and he took to both with enthusiasm and dedication.
He earned his B.A. degree from Wofford College in 1933 and B.D. at
Duke three years later. Wofford honored him with a doctorate in 1965.
Education played a large role in his life. It was reflected in his goals for
his church as well as for his children. He once said that "Education is
something that no one can ever take away from you." He measured suc-
cess for himself and his family, in a large part, by the graduation from
college of all four children. We are sure he was even more pleased that
they were Methodist related schools. The assistance he was able to lend in
the founding of Methodist College and the subsequent dedication he
showed toward its survival further attests to his strong belief in the value
of a Christian education.
He married our mother, Maria L. Byrd of Holly Springs, N.C. on
December 29, 1935. To say that she was an inspiration would be an un-
derstatement. His life was her life and they blended into a single unit of
love and devotion that made us a family.
He then began a ministry of over 35 years in the North Carolina Con-
ference of the Methodist Church. With pastorates at Henderson,
Pinetops, Aurora twice, Red Springs, Raleigh, Fayetteville and Golds-
boro, he also served the Raleigh and Fayetteville Districts as District
Superintendent. He was a Chaplain in the U.S. Army Air Corps for four
years during World War II.
In writing this memorial to our father, it is interesting that all four of
us agreed on one aspect of his character without consulting the other.
Positive action versus negative inaction was almost a personal bat-
tleground with him. The ability to assume the "do something" position
259
and then act on that position was a trademark of his life. He expected
100% effort; nothing less was acceptable. He had no sympathy for
laziness in insisted that the opportunity to work was one of the great
gifts of the American Life. Perhaps his early years helped enforce this
philosophy.
The discipline he used on himself was the same he later tried to instill
in us. Never easy on us or himself, the fact that the "crowd" was doing
something had absolutely no bearing on whether or not it was acceptable.
To say that we always thought he was right would be a little farfetched,
for you know that few children growing up in any household agree with
their parents all of the time. Certainly, we were no exception. But respect
him we did for he never compromised principle and more often than not
his wisdom and sense of justice proved him right. Family discussions
around the dinner table were regular and often intense. Subjects were
varied and all members of the family participated. Never did he
discourage us from our views although he tried to explain and reason his
own.
His personal values were best highlighted by deep concern for human
relations. He abhored all things undignified to the welfare of any in-
dividual. A human life was the most precious of all God's creations and to
see it denied opportunity or its place as a member of the society of God's
world disappointed him immensely. Man was God's creation and not
man's, so man had no right to interfere in God's plan for that individual
life. Instead, it was man's responsibility to God and man to enhance the
lives of others. These attributes earned him the respect of all who came to
know him.
Our father was a Christian first but not far behind came the Methodist
Church. Unlike some people, he knew why he was a Methodist. The
dogmatism of many other denominations turned him off. The personal
Salvation taught and preached by the Methodist Church excited him and
was the basis of all his beliefs. He insisted that dogmatic theology was not
the answer to an individual's responsibility to God. Rather, a person
could comply with all that was required for Salvation, but what it all
came down to in the final analysis was the pure, plain, simple Grace of
God. He often indicated that he was glad that he did not have to depend
on justice for his salvation because he knew he couldn't make it without
an awful lot of God's mercy.
This certainly does not mean that the Church and its work was an
unimportant facet of religion to him. He saw the Church as God's agent
through which man could live the Christian life he professes. And this
meant doing all those things that a Christian can do through a strong and
vibrant Church life. Dedication to the Christian Church was the same as
dedication to God.
We again quote Van Dyke's Four Things in which he believed related
by R. Wright Spears at his Memorial Service.
260
"Four things a man must learn to do — if he would make his record
ue:
To think without confusion clearly,
To love his fellowmen sincerely,
To act with honest motives purely,
To trust in God and heaven securely."

JAMES RUSSELL HAILEY
1914-1975
James Russell Hailey was born May 27, 1914, in Spray, North Carolina,
the son of Walter and Lucy Slusher Hailey. He died at Nash General
Hospital in Rocky Mount, North Carolina, in his 61st year, December
21, 1975. He was reared by parents who were ardent members active in
the Congregational Christian Church. He began a career that grew out of
an affection for his craft of watchmaking early in life, served an ap-
prenticeship and worked for eight years in that profession in Burlington.
This was interrupted for three years as he served as Staff Sergeant in the
Pacific Theater during World War II.
During this time he met and married Nell Mae Veach and they shared
thirty-six rich years together. Their goals and careers were intertwined
throughout this marriage.
Upon his discharge from the Army, Jim felt a compulsion to prepare for
the active ministry and he enrolled at Elon College from which he was
graduated in 1950. After a short pastorate, he united with The Methodist
Church and served churches in Orange and Person counties as he contin-
ued his ministerial education at Duke Divinity School.
Achieving honors in Old Testament studies, he was encouraged to
continue his doctoral studies in this field at the same period that his con-
ference was making plans to establish two new senior colleges to serve the
youth of our area.
261
Jim felt a clear call to minister to the youth in one of these colleges and
he set about to prepare himself for this mssion. He completed his doctoral
studies with honors in Old Testament at Duke University in 1961. Dr.
Stinespring called him the best student he ever had in Biblical studies.
To accomplish this long and difficult degree program, Nell Hailey
served for years as nurse for the Methodist Retirement Home in Durham
while Jim served part-time as chaplain for the residents.
Jim applied for the position as Assistant Professor of Religion at North
Carolina Wesleyan College in 1961. After a careful interview process it
was determined that he was among the best qualified candidates and he
was appointed in September 1961. He served with distinction rising to the
position of Professor and Chairman of the Department of Philosophy and
Religion.
He never lost his love for the pastorate and he served Red Oak Methodist
Charge, and the Mt. Zion Methodist Church almost the entire time he
taught at Wesleyan. He was dearly beloved pastor as his congregation
responded to the great love he shared with his people.
He tried to demonstrate the validity of the Christian gospel from the
pulpit, from the professor's lectern, and in daily relationships. This was
recognized by multitudes of students and friends who sought his counsel
as they enjoyed his Christian message.
Jim's interests were many and varied. He was an active Rotarian, a
Mason and Shriner serving as State Chaplain. He enjoyed hunting and
fishing and was one of the most expert fishermen I ever knew... sometimes
going out for an afternoon to bring back fish on precise orders from his
friends and amazed associates.
During the twenty-five years of our close personal friendship, I never
really saw Jim angry with another person... demonstrating a quality of
Christian love which was easily recognized and highly commendable.
He underwent major surgery last Spring without complaint and with a
confidence that his life was safely in God's hands. Discovering a recurrence
a few weeks go, Jim accepted pain and trial with few complaints, but rath-
er with a quality of acceptance which was a remarkable testimony for all
of us who visited him.
Through teeth clenched with pain he thanked God that he had the
opportunity to know that God's love was available and genuine. He testi-
fied of his faith to all who visited and we are richer for having shared these
hours with him. As he walked through the valley of the shadow of death,
he feared not all and welcomed the opportunity to encourage us to con-
tinue to publish God's glad tidings. I have seldom found a faith so strong,
and a testimony so miraculous in its proclamation of Christ's love and
efficacy in human life.
I can certify that many young persons found new direction and hope
because they met Jim Hailey, in the classroom, on the campus, or in
chapel. Many of them can attest with eloquence to new directions achieved
as he introduced them to Christ and His will for their lives.
I could conclude by offering, "Let not your heart be troubled... I go
and prepare a place for you" from Jesus' New Testament assurance, but
Jim knew in whom he believed and never waivered in that calm confi-
dence, for as another Old Testament child of God he would have us know,
262
"The Lord is my shepherd. He leadeth me beside the still waters (and
there will be many quiet ponds and rippling streams in Jim's heaven),
thou anointest my head with oil, my cup runneth over. Surely goodness
and mercy shall follow me all the days of my life; and I will dwell in the
house of the Lord forever."
And all the servants of the Lord who knew James Russell Hailey may
say simply and with appreciative affection. . .'Amen!"
I cannot say, and I will not say
That Jim is dead. He is just away.
With a cheery smile, and a wave of the hand,
He has wandered into a welcome land.
And left us dreaming how very fair
It must be, since Jim now dwells there.
And we, oh we who the wildest yearn
For the old timestep, and the glad return
Think of Jim dwelling on, as dear
In the love of God as the love of Here ;
Mild and gentle as he was brave
When the sweetest love of his life he gave.
To simple things — where the violets grew
Pure as the eyes they were likened to.
The touch of his hands have strayed
As reverently as his lips have prayed.
Think of Jim as still the same, I say;
He is not dead — he is just away . . .with our heavenly Father!

DANIEL EDWIN EARNHEARDT
1892-1976
Daniel Edwin Earnhardt was born November 28, 1892, being the son
of Daniel Luther and Ellen Ayers Earnheardt. He grew up in a Methodist
263
Parsonage. He graduated from Trinity College in 1918 and was awarded
the degree of Masters in Religious Education by Duke Divinity School
in 1828.
Ed Earnhardt was married to Esther Roberts of Durham on January
22, 1918 at Bethany Church in Durham.
In 1916 at the Annual Conference in Durham, he was received on trial.
In World War I, he was with the Army Y.M.C.A. He served as a chaplain
with the rank of Captain during the Second World War.
He is survived by two sons, Edwin R. Earnhardt and Dan T. Earnhardt,
both of whom are Methodist ministers, and a daughter, Mrs. Harold T.
Davis of Goldsboro.
The first pastorate to which Ed Earnhardt was assigned was Lakewood
Park in Durham. Other charges were Graham, Tarboro, Southport, Cal-
vary (Durham), Smithfield, Fifth Avenue (Wilmington), Henderson
(First), Fayetteville District, President, Louisburg College, Rockingham
(First), Washington (First), Clinton First, and McMannen (Durham).
He retired in 1967. Following his retirement he served Bath Circuit,
Hatteras and Roper.
For forty years he contributed articles to community newspapers and
The North Carolina Christian Advocate. His "Wayside Pulpit" was eagerly
read by people throughout Eastern North Carolina.
These are some of the facts concerning the ministry of Ed Earnhardt,
but as I write this memoir, sacred personal memories are about me for
Daniel Edwin Earnhardt was my friend and he vitally affected my life.
I first met him when I was a student at Louisburg College. It was during
the days of the depression and Ed Earnhardt had assumed the presidency
of Louisburg College. He was called upon to save the situation. The school
had a staggering indebtedness. When he left this position the financial
burden had been lifted.
During the time of his administration at Louisburg College he had the
opportunity to influence many young men for the ministry. At one session
of the North Carolina Conference fifty ministers were recognized as being
the products of his influence. I bear testimony to the friendship of Ed
Earnhardt for he was my true friend. I shall be forever indebted to him
for encouragement and wise counsel to me as a young preacher.
Ed Earnhardt was an evangelist with a unique pulpit style. His keen
sense of humor endeared him to ministers and laity alike. His sermons were
never cumbersome, but they were exceedingly profound and stimulating.
Many honors were bestowed upon him including the opportunity to
preach before President Franklin Roosevelt on Easter Sunday, April
25, 1943, at Fort Riley, Kansas.
His final years he spent in Edenton sharing with the church and town
people his folksy philosophy, his easy smile, and his bountiful love for his
fellow man.
Ed Earnhardt died April 14, 1976 in Edenton. A funeral service was
held at Edenton United Methodist Church with The Reverend Norwood
Jones and The Reverend J. Kern Ormond officiating. On Good Friday,
April 16, 1976, he was interned beside his wife at Maplewood Cemetery
in Durham.
264
A patriarch has gone from our midst. A great leader has preached his
last sermon. For insight, profundity, consecration, devotion to the cause
of Christ, deep convictions, and fearless statement of beliefs, we shall
not likely see his equal again in our generation.

MRS. PEARL GRIFFIN PETTY
1895-1975
One of the highlights of growing up in Roxboro was going by the Petty
house and being treated like a "real somebody" by Pearl Petty. Even
waking up the household at six o'clock on Saturday morning to begin a
bicycle ride for a Cycling Merit Badge did not dent that hospitality. The
crowds would overflow across the street from Brooksdale Church after
Epworth League, or beg another sheet to use in the Halloween Spook
House and there she was with a friendly smile and a cheery "come in."
That's what I remember most about Pearl Petty when I was
young -and even as I have grown older. She was "at home" and wanted
you to be "at home" with her and the family.
Durham was always referred to as "where I was reared", although she
was born in Chatham County on July 8, 1895. Her parents, Charles A.
and Naomi Burke Griffin, saw that Pearl was duly educated at the
Durham schools and at Trinity College. When she was twenty-three, she
married Dwight A. Petty, and began a career of maintaining and en-
hancing Methodist parsonages for forty two years. Those homes went all
the way from the Bahama circuit at the beginning to the Rose Hill Church
before retirement. It was during those first years that two sons were born
Burke and Bernard. The last years of retirement were spent in Rose Hill
265
in their own home, until Dwight died in 1971. Pearl continued living
there with her sons until her death on August 1, 1975, right after the
celebration of her eightieth birthday.
The Reverend John H. White and The Reverend David L. Moe com-
mitted her to God's eternal care at the Rose Hill Church on August 3.

MRS. KATIE BIZZELL BUNDY
Mrs. Katie Bizzell Bundy, widow of the late Rev. Jessie David Bundy,
died on September 21, 1975, at the age of 91, in the Wilkes General
Hospital, North Wilkesboro, N.C., after a long illness. The funeral was
held at the Rogers and Breece Funeral Chapel, Fayetteville, N.C., with
the Rev. James H. Miller, Jr., District Superintendent, officiating. Burial
was in the Hillside Cemetery in Laurinsburg, N.C.
She was born in LaGrange, N.C, on December 20, 1884. She grew up
in LaGrange, Goldsboro and Kinston, N.C. Her parents were Elijah
Wooten Bizzell and Penelope Barnes Bizzell. It was in Kinston where she
met her future husband, he being pastor of Queen Street Methodist
Church at the time. They were married on April 20, 1908 in Kinston.
Soon after their marriage they moved to Elizabeth City, and then to
Wilmington, Weldon, Fayetteville, Rockingham, Fayetteville, Smithfield
and Mebane. After Mr. Bundy 's retirement they moved back to Fayet-
teville, where they lived for many years.
She was active in all phases of the church in all the churches in which
her husband served. She was devoted to her church, her family and her
many friends. She was a wonderful mother and an inspiration to her
family during her long years of suffering. She was a true Christian, and as
one of her family said, "Katie was born good."
She is survived by one daughter, Mrs. Miriam B. McLain, Durham,
N.C. and two sons, Dr. W.L. Bundy, North Wilkesboro, N.C. and Dr.
James B. Bundy, Fayetteville, N.C, a sister, Mrs. W.C Boone, Sr.,
Kinston, and one brother, Mr. Lee Bizzell, Fredericksburg, Va., six
grandchildren, and four great-grandchildren.
266
We miss you now, our hearts are sore
As time goes by, we miss you more,
Your loving smile, your gentle face
No one can fill your vacant place.
Mrs. Miriam B. McLain
MRS. WILLIE MAE GANNAWAY
Mrs. Willie Mae (Hill) Gannaway, the daughter of the late George H.
and Sarah (Kennedy) Hill, was born in Choccolocco, Alabama, Novem-
ber 6, 1902. She was educated in the Anniston, Alabama schools and
graduated from Barber College in Atlanta, Georgia. She met the
Reverend Herbert C. Gannaway while he was a student at Gammon
Theological Seminary in Atlanta and they were married in 1927. She
joined her husband when he returned to the pastorate in the North
Carolina Conference of the Methodist Episcopal Church.
Being a minister's wife, Mrs. Gannaway learned to carry out many
duties in the church. She was an expert pianist and singer, and worked in
many ways in the local church as well as on the district, conference and
jurisdictional levels.
After the death of her husband in 1945, she and her daughter, Mary
Helen, moved to Fayetteville where they became members of the John
Wesley Methodist Church. She became very active in John Wesley
Church. A few of the many positions held by Mrs. Gannaway were: Sun-
day School teacher; Treasurer of the Senior Choir; Chairperson, Com-
mission on Missions; Member of the Trustee Board; Member of the
Commission of Stewardship and Finance; President of the Senior Choir;
Director-Coordinator of College Activities; Work Area Chairperson of
Worship; Member of the Pastor-Parish Relations Committee; President
of the United Methodist Women.
Mrs. Gannaway was employed by the Fayetteville State University and
when she retired in 1970 and moved to Washington, D.C., transferred
her membership to the Lincoln Park United Methodist Church. When
her health began to fail she moved to South Hadley, Massachusetts to live
267
with her daughter.
Mrs. Gannaway became seriously ill and was taken to Western
Massachusetts Hospital, Westfield, where she died on Wednesday, Oc-
tober 16, 1975. She is survived by one daughter, Mrs. Mary Gannaway

sisters and one step-brother; three grandchildren and several nieces and
nephews.

NELLIE FAISON (SIS) O'BRIANT
1880-1975
Mrs. Nellie Faison O'Briant was born April 12, 1880 in North Hamp-
ton Co. N.C. where her parents, Benjamin and Alice Faison were school
teachers. At an early age, she along with her parents became the fifth
family to settle in what was then the village of Roanoke Rapids.
On Dec. 20, 1904 she was united in Holy Wedlock to the Rev. J.B.
O'Briant, a minister of the Gospel of Jesus Christ in what was then The
Methodist Protestant Church. She served our Lord and His church with
her husband for 19 years, until his untimely death in 1930.
Pastorates in which they together served our Lord included : Randle-
man, N.C; The Spring Church Charge in North Hampton Co. and
parts of Va. ; The Littleton Ckt. in Halifax and Warren Counties; The
Chase City Ckt.; and the Greenville Ckt., where he was serving at the
time of his death.
Sis, (as Mrs. O'Briant was so affectionately called) was a good wife,
always at her post of duty. Nothing was too burdensome and no task too
hard for her hands to do if she saw a need. A long life, above reproach
was her career. No tongue can truly speak anything against the life and
character of this good woman. She remained an active member of her
268
church until the time of her infirmity from a fall in Jan. 1970. Although
confined to bed for nearly six years, Sis bore her suffering well. She never
complained, giving evidence of a happy home.
Her love for the beauty of nature led her to open and operate the first
florist in Roanoke Rapids. The name of her florist, "The Glad Home
Florist" exemplified her attitude and outlook on life. She said that name
was chosen because her's truly was a happy home, for which she had so
much to be thankful.
Tis true, that she never bore any children from her body, but she was
a mother and grandmother to many. Several members of her family lived
with her during those dark and lean years of the depression, and we
today, especially of Smith Church are reaping the fruits of her labors.
As her foster daughter, Mrs. Alvorado Grooms commented, "She lived
her life for others."
To Sis, death was like the Shepherd serenly leading home his flock
under the planet of the evenings end. On Dec. 29, 1975 Mrs. O'Briant
slipped quietly into the waiting arms of her "Blessed Redeemer" to hear
these glorious words — "Well done thy good and faithful servant, enter
thou into the joy of thy Lord." Funeral services were conducted at the
Branch Funeral Home Chapel on Jan. 1, 1976 by Rev. J.B. Helms, pastor
of Smith United Methodist Church, and the Rev. Ray Phillips, pastor
of Hawkins Chapel United Church.
Over there in Cedarwood Cemetery, by the side of her husband, sleeps
the body of this good woman. This little mound marks the passing of a
loving wife, a tender mother, a good neighbor, and a Christian Woman.
It is most fitting and proper that this memorial be closed with the
words of the hymn that was sung at her funeral.
"MY GOD AND I"
My God and I go in the field together,
We walk and talk as good friends should and do.
We clasp our hands, our voices ring with laughter,
My god and I walk through the meadow's hue.
He tells me of the years that went before me,
When heavenly plans were made for me to be.
When all was but a dream of deep conception,
To come to life, earth's verdant glory see.
My god and I will go for aye together,
We'll walk and talk and jest as good friends do.
This earth will pass, and with it common trifles,
But God and I will go unendingly.
Mrs. O'Briant is survived by her foster -daughter, Alvorado Faison
Grooms of Roanoke Rapids; two step-grandsons, Thad O'Briant of
Roanoke Rapids and John O'Briant of Burlington; and several nieces
and nephews.

Dixon.
She attended the public schools of Lee County and afterwards The
Alabama Polytechnical Institute (now Auburn University), Auburn,
Alabama; Massey Business College, Combus, Georgia; and Birmingham
Southern College, Birmingham, Alabama.
She was a teacher, stenographer and public accountant. She worked
as a private secretary and bookkeeper for one of the largest electrical
companies in the South.
On November 20, 1943, she married the Reverend Horace Greely
Ridaught, and to this union was born a daughter, Norma Virginia
Ridaught Strickland, now of Clinton, North Carolina.

joined First United Methodist Church, Pembroke; and in March, 1962,
they moved to Clinton to begin the Coharie United Methodist Mission,
projected to minister to the Coharie Indians of Sampson County.
Together with her husband, they founded the Coharie Methodist
Mission Church on November 21, 1965, where they served together until
Brother Ridaught's death on February 1 , 1974.
She loved her church, where she was a faithful member, and never
missed a service, except for sickness. Next to her Christian faith, she
loved and supported her husband in his work as a minister. Her first
thoughts and efforts were always directed toward him and his happiness.
She loved the little children and youth of her Church. She was its
Treasurer and Secretary until her sight began to fail in July, 1975.
She led a clean life, was never sick and was never attended by a
physician until her last illness.
She died on May 4, 1976. The Funeral Service was held on Saturday,
May 9, led by the Reverend James Jacobs and the Reverend Mike Cum-
270
mings. Mr. Lloyd Jacobs, a faithful member of the congregation, also
spoke on behalf of the church membership. Burial followed in the
cemetary of New Bethel Baptist Church, near Clinton.
In addition to her daughter and one grandson, Mrs. Ridaught was
survived by two brothers, J.O. and W.L. Dixon, and one sister, Mrs.
F.P. Thompson.
She received her joy in life from doing for those who could not do for
themselves. And she will be loved and remembered for her dedicated
service to her Lord, her family and her Church.

The Old Testament writer expressed it well : "A good wife who can find?
The heart of her husband trusts in her... Strength and dignity are her
clothing, and she laughs at the time to come. She opens her mouth with
wisdom, and the teaching of kindness is on her tongue. She looks well
to the ways of her household... Her children rise up and call her blessed;
her husband also, and he praises her: 'Many women have done excellently,
but you surpass them all.' Charm is deceitful, and beauty is vain, but a
woman who fears the Lord is to be praised." (Proverbs 31 : 10-1 lb, 25-30,
RSV)

SECTION V
CONFERENCE REPORTS, LEGISLATION
AND RESOLUTIONS
Group A-Agency Reports
State of the Church Address
June 1976
The Annual Conference of 1976 is a very significant one. Our joyful ob-
servance of United Methodism's Bicentennial in North Carolina affords us
an opportunity for reflection and perspective. Those Circuit Riders who
came to the Carolina Circuit two hundred years ago could little imagine
the proportions of our modern Methodism. Nor can we predict what the
church will be like one hundred years from today. Our responsibility is to
do all we can to fulfill the sacred trust that is ours to serve the present and
to insure the future. A contemporary Christian song says, "Pass it on, pass
it on." Indeed we will want to pass on the glorious light of the knowledge of
Jesus Christ, in the fervent manner of Methodism .
As we begin a new quadrennium we build upon this noble past, but with
concern about a disturbing present. Our declining moral state is the
product of false liberations and deadening lethargy. Multitudes in our age
are not only in faith crises, but are also in crises of personal living. For
some it is an act of heroism to stay afloat at all! The idea of contextual
ethics has bred a climate of sexual laxity, of immorality on every level, and
of breakdown in home and family life that should cause us all to sound the
alarm for renewal of our commitment to Christian responsibility.
Liberation without conscience is a dangerous thing. We need to turn from
273
s
talking about things we are free "from", to consider the things we are free
"for". We should seek freedom "from" our sins that we may be free "for"
purity of life and purpose. Only then can we prove our Christian
credibility.
In the face of such moral and spiritual concern, we can nevertheless
thank God for the vitality and strength of the church in general, and North
Carolina Methodism in particular. In many of our congregations church
attendance is up. Productive and encouraging things are happening. In
1975, we had a net gain in membership of 370. Average church attendance
was 75,416. Additions on profession of faith were 3,204, and by transfer
5,203.
Our stewardship has registered significant growth with $19,731,395
raised for all purposes, which is an increase of $1,024,129 over 1974. Per
capita giving increased from $88.06 in 1974 to $93.27 in 1975. In 1975 our
giving to Single Figure causes increased from $3,240,773 in 1974 to
$3,442,477 in 1975, or a percentage increase of 6.22% Giving to Advance
Mission Specials was up from $188,004 to $250,014, or a percentage
growth of 33% . Much of this was in response to the Hunger Appeal, which
accounted for a major portion of the Advance funds. In 1975 we gave
almost $250,000 for Hunger Relief. It was also in 1975 that we responded
to the urgent needs of North Carolina Wesleyan by pledging $488,000 over
a three-year period, of which $320,000 has already been paid in cash. Our
conference ranks third in all of United Methodism in giving to Higher
Education.
The quadrennial year is a pertinent time to evaluate our gains and
losses over the past four years. In 1971-72 we had a net membership gain of
490; in 1972-73, a gain of 1172; in 1973 (short year), a loss of 474; in
1974 a loss of 21 ; and in 1975 a gain of 370 ; or a total gain of 1 ,537 mem-
bers for the quadrennium, amounting to a percentage gain of .73%.
Though not a significant gain, at least it was not a loss, as reflected over
the denomination as a whole.
The church school picture is a more discouraging one. During the four-
year period we went from an enrollment of 124,295 in 1971 to 113,361 in
1975; or a loss of 10,934, or percentage loss of 8.8%
The financial picture during the quadrennium shows a plus in every
area of giving. Pastors' salaries increased 35.6% during the period. Travel
allowances increased 6.2% and utilities for parsonages increased 116.5%.
At the same time, giving to Single Figure causes (Pensions and Benevolen-
ces) incresed 18.9%, or almost exactly half the rate of pastors' salaries.
Giving to General Advance Specials increased 135.1% over the four years,
largely due to emergency appeals for hunger, earthquakes, and similar
disasters. Giving to the Ten Dollar Club (Church Extension) increased
207.1%. These gains, plus our generous giving to the North Carolina
Wesleyan campaign in the amount of $320,000, and over $120,000 to the
Black College Fund, gives us a good record in giving.
Where do we go from here as we face a new quadrennium? Certainly we
cannot be satisfied with anything less than forward. To do this we must
place a high priority upon growth in membership. The recent report
released at the 1976 General Conference on Membership Trends in the
274
United Methodist Church reveal:
(1) The peak quadrennium for receiving persons on Profession of faith
was 1956-60, when more than 400,000 new persons were added each year.
The total received by Profession of faith and transfer in 1956-60 was
800,000 each year.
(2) The lowest number was received during the 1969-72 quadrennium,
when just slightly more than 211 ,000 were added each year by profession of
faith.
(3) The total number of names removed from the rolls of the church as
a result of death has remained relatively constant since 1960 - between
1 13,000 and 1 19,000 annually.
(4) The number removed by transfer to other denominations has
decreased slightly from 95,000 in 1957-60 to 70,000 in the present
quadrennium.
(5) There has been a slight increase in the number removed by Charge
Conference action and otherwise. The low point was 183,000 annually in
1961-64 and the high was 250,000 annually since 1972.
(6) The net losses in church membership are not due to a mass exodus
or greatly increased number of removals from the membership rolls. A
primary factor in the net loss is the sharp reduction in the number of per-
sons who have been received on Profession of faith.
Nothing amazes me more than a prevailing mood among some persons
(ministers in particular) that we should not place much emphasis upon
statistics. Indeed, God expects us to be obedient, and to be obedient, He
expects us to be assertive and successful! In the Episcopal Address at the
General Conference Bishop James Thomas said, "Evangelism is not a
method or a function., .it is the heart of Christian self-definition, the fun-
damental reason why we exist as Christians." Elton Trueblood provides a
key image when he says, "Evangelism occurs when people are so enkindled
by contact with the central fire of Christ that they, in turn, set others on
fire." There may not appear much difference between 19 and 20 new
members, unless that one may be my child, or your loved one. It is then
that numbers make all the difference in the world! If we stop short of win-
ning one hundred souls for Christ by being content with the 99, then we
have to answer, "Where is that one lost sheep?!" In the 1950's and the early
1960's the North Carolina Conference was adding 4,000 to 5,000 net new
members per year, compared with plus 370 in 1975, and minus 21 in 1974,
and 1,117 in 1973!
With these in mind, let us therefore set some challenging and deman-
ding goals. Let us do at least some of the following:
(1) Bring to Raleigh on January 24-25, 1977, all the ministers and have
them receive skilled training and inspiration in methods of Evangelism.
(2) Use the dates of February 1-12 for a through religious census of our
communities to determine how many people live among us who are not
within the direct influence of the Christian Church by membership or in-
fluence.
(3) Use the dates of February 13-27, 1977, for earnest and enthusiastic
visitation for the distinct purpose of winning persons to Christ and to the
church.
275
(4) The week of February 27, 1977 be devoted to creative, devout days
of special, corporate worship — Call it revivals, or New Life Missions, or
preaching missions, or what vou will! I still believe there is a place for con-
centrated, creative proclamation of the Gospel.
Good preaching and growing faith will result in a sustained commitment
to evangelism by and for the whole church. God sets for us our priorities!
The great commission — go, preach, teach, baptize, make disciples, wit-
ness—is still The Great Commission!
We rejoice in the three priorities set by the General Conference for the
quadrennium of 1977-80; namely: (1) Evangelism, (2) Ethnic Ministries,
and (3) World Hunger. We will want to respond to each of these with an
enthusiastic and exciting commitment.
Having already spoken to the urgent need in evangelism, let me just as
distinctly emphasize our need to reach out and expand our ministry among
the ethnic groups. Within the geographical bounds of the North Carolina
Conference there are more than a half-million Black people. Yet we have
on our rolls a mere 3,000 Blacks. Most of them are in very small churchs
and have the services of only part-time ministers. What a challenging field
this is for our conference to minister to the economic, social and spiritual
needs of such a large portion of our population.
World hunger is of such proportions as to stir the compassion and
response of all of us. Our giving must be of such proportions as to afford a
basic and constructive answer to the causes of hunger and a generous sup-
port to creative ways of solving so grievous a problem. A band-aid ap-
proach is worthy, but beyond it must come a constructive program of
producing enough food for great masses of people. It will call for renewed
priorities, simpler life styles, and a more equitable sharing of the earth's
resources.
Let us go from this Conference with a renewed dedication to serve, to
sacrifice, to suffer, to lead,, to issue a call to the people called Methodists
to rise up and minister in the name of Our Lord, whose example was "not
to be ministered unto, but to minister."
My plea is in the realm of attitude and spirit.
(1) One, that we have an attitude of deep concern for the souls of
people. We as Christians live under the compulsion of the great com-
mission to reach out and win the world for Christ.
(2) Two, a right attitude toward the minority. We are to minister and
not to be ministered unto! Ours is a high calling that transcends personal
gain and comfort. It calls us to serve with compassion and zeal.
(3) Three, a right attitude toward the church. Too often we ask, "What
does the church do for me?" More often we need to ask, "What can I do for
my Lord through the church?" The church should be the "Company of the
Committed" who are out to change the world and convert people to the
cause of Christ.

The Commission on Archives and History
The Commission on Archives and History is composed of two persons
from each district comprising the North Carolina Conference, the archivist,
historian, Commission researcher and one district superintendent.
Meetings were held at Purdie Church in Bladen County and McBride
Church in Camden County where interesting programs were presented and
delicious dinners were served.
Early district conference minutes and several circuit record books were
added to the Commission Archives at The Methodist Building. Here are
also contained condensed and complete Conference minutes from 1773 to
the present. Efforts continue to obtain important additions to these archives.
The Southeastern Jurisdiction Commission on Archives and History met
in July at Birmingham Southern University and three delegates attended
from our Commission.
Joseph Watson, researcher, and Frank Grill, historian, completed and
distributed the Conference Historical Directory, a summary of pertinent
historical information concerning all churches in the Conference arranged
in order by counties.
The big event was the Bicentennial Celebration held at Duke University
on April 3, 1976 celebrating the 200th anniversary of the Carolina Circuit
and the 50th anniversary of the founding of The Divinity School. It was
attended by 7,000 persons and termed an outstanding success. Since this
event was held jointly with the Western North Carolina Conference as a
special session, minutes of this event are published in both Conference
Journals. A commemorative book, Methodism Alive in North Carolina
was prepared by the committee and edited by O. Kelly Ingram, Chairman
of the Committee. Certificates were presented to the oldest black, native
American and white congregation still in existence in North Carolina.
Continuing efforts are underway to have churches prepare their own
local histories and deposit a copy in the Conference Archives. The earliest
church in each district is also being sought for a special recognition. The
Commission assists churches on request to conduct special anniversary
celebrations.
At its annual homecoming in June, historic Rehoboth Church in Wash-
ington County formed a memorial foundation to perpetrate the upkeep
and continue the use of the property for monthly preaching and special
services. This is a similar arrangement to that established at Whitaker's
Chapel in Halifax County. It is the desire of many of our members to seek
more churches in danger of being closed or abandoned where the building
exhibits rare architectural style or special historic significance.
The Commission was organized in June for the 1976-p80 quadrennium
and elected Lawrence Lugar, Chairperson; Mrs. W.T. Jackson, Vice-
Chairperson and Morris Barber, Secretary. The new members show a
continuing interest in preserving our heritage and carrying out the worthy
aims of this group held since its inception in 1893.

Board of Church and Society
During the year 1975, the Board of Church and Society has continued
its efforts to be the church in society, listening for the sounds that indicate
where people hurt and looking for ways the church might heal these hurts.
Since hunger has been a prime cause of the hurts of the world, this board
in cooperation with the Task Force on the Call For Peace and Self-development
and the Division of Missions declared February 16th, 1975, as Hunger
Sunday. In conjunction with The One Great Hour of Sharing an offering
was received for World Hunger.
During April the Adult Study Tour to the United Nations and Washing-
ton, D.C., was conducted and a workshop on Human Sexuality was held
for young adults in the conference. Also during April approximately sixty-
five persons from this conference met in Charlotte with members of the
Western North Carolina and South Carolina Conferences for a Consulta
tion on the Call for Peace and Self-development of Peoples. Six members
of the Board attended the Southeastern Jurisdiction Briefing Conference
at Lake Junaluska; one attended a seminar on the use of food stamps;
another represented us at the Annual Briefing on National Legislation
in Washington; and others attended the North Carolina Council of Social
Legislation sessions.
In October the total Board met for a two day session at Methodist Col-
lege where we shared the information gathered at all these conferences and
seminars, and in addition we heard reports on the activities of The General
Board of Church and Society from Mildred Fry, who is a member of that
group and serves as our consultant; and from Bruce Pate, who is the Con-
ference Representative on the North Carolina, Department of Corrections
Committee on Chaplaincy's and from Eric Carson who works with Urban
Ministries in Fayetteville. It was felt that our failure to rehabilitate our
growing prison population and our failure to deal with the innocent vic-
tims of their crimes was an area on which we might concentrate. Con-
sequently, our board has formulated four resolutions which are to be
presented to the 1976 Annual Conference.
Mrs. JO. Watson, President
Mrs. Charles Snipes, Secretary
General Council on Ministries
The General Council on Ministries has worked through the first four
years of its existence and has made its first report to the General Confer-
279
ence of The United Methodist Church.
No one would claim or could claim that the Council has accomplished
all that it was directed to do, however, it reached the end of the quadren-
nium with an excellent report, having been a part of the evalutive process
which called for planning and coordination in the life of the whole church.
May I enquire, what effect will the recommendations of this body to the
1976 General Conference have upon you, upon me, and upon our church.
First, the 1972 General Conference instructed the General Council to
make a study of the distribution system of our resources and report its
findings. Through this study it was concluded that a single distribution
system would not be recommended, but that through continuous study,
ways of making possible greater access of resource materials to the local
church could be found.
Secondly, the General Council on Ministries recommended a more
orderly placement of materials in the Discipline which will make possible
more effective and greater use of the Discipline.
Thirdly, every agency of the church is urged to respond to the 1976-
80 Quadrennial theme of "Committed to Christ — Called to Change" in
their programming.
Fourthly, in recommending its missional priority to the General Con-
ference, the General Council set evangelism as one of its major thrusts.
Bishop Thomas, in the Episcopal Address, urged the people called Meth-
odists to lead one million persons to Christ during the next quadrennium.
The second area of concern in the missional priority is the development
of Ethnic Minority Churches. The third area of importance is world
hunger. To carry out these two we are requested to place upon the altar of
the church an annual gift of approximately 10 million dollars. One half
of these funds is to be secured through a line item in our local church
budgets, and the other half to be secured through Advance specials.
Another important action of the General Council on Ministries was the
presentation of the evaluative report of the program agencies of the Church.
May we at this time name these boards and indicate the representation of
our conference in these bodies.
— Board of Church and Society— Mrs. D.K. Fry of Raleigh
— Bishop Blackburn from Council of Bishops
— Board of Discipleship — C.H. Mercer, Conference Council Director
— David Harvin, Student in Wesley Seminary
— Board of Global Ministries — Mrs. Charles Dorsett of Mt. Gilead
—J.N. Gibson of Gibson
— Board of Higher Educ. & Ministry — G.L. Garrick of Jacksonville
— P.W. Gibson of Gibson
— P.W. Aitkin of Durham
— Commission on Religion and Race — Debora Wilkins of North Carolina
— Commission on the Status and Role of Women — Bishop Blackburn
Each agency has been faithful in carrying out its assigned task. However,
attention was called to the importance of and the responsibility for the
development of effective communication with the Annual Conferences,
that they may be more responsive to the needs of the people of the local
churches.
May I express to you my sincere appreciation for the privilege of serving
280
on this Council during the past quadrennium. I was assigned to work in
the Section on Evaluation and selected the Board of Discipleship as the
General Agency to which I would be related.
During the past two years I was given a special assignment to work with
four other Council members on a Committee to Evaluate the work of The
General Council on Ministries.
It is my opinion that the work of the whole church has been more effec-
tive and less expensive due to the dilligent work of 125 members of local
churches who have served in this way.

Methodist Ministers Credit Union
The late Wright Patman, Congressman from Texas, used typically
Texan terms to describe the credit unions of the world. He said, "No other
institution than the church does more good for men than credit unions."
It makes us feel good when we hear words like this from the man in
government who knew more about credit unions than any other individual.
So it seems natural for a credit union to be associated with the church in
service to mankind. We are grateful for the privilege of serving this seg-
ment of the church known as the North Carolina Annual Conference.
We invite and urge every eligible person to join. There is no time or
place better than here and now.
Who is eligible? The persons who are referred to in our By-Laws:
"The field of membership in this credit union is limited to those having
the following common bond of association, occupation or residence: the
resident Bishop, ministers of or serving in The North Carolina Conference,
United Methodist Church, spouses of aforesaid ministers and members,
and children, natural born and adopted, of any of these. Full-time em-
ployees of institutions and agencies of or related to The North Carolina
Annual Conference of The United Methodist Church, the spouse and
children, both natural born and adopted, of the eligible employees. "
How do you join? You buy one or more shares and promise to abide by
the By-Laws. Shares are $5.00 each.
Where can you join? You may join at the credit union desk in the foyer
of this building. John Mitchell will be there to receive your investment.
You may join later by mail or in person at the credit union office.
Do not wait. Join today. You need your credit union and it needs you.
It is where you belong. Together we can do things that we could never do
alone.
The statistics that follow are more than figures. They are an index of
how many pennies we have saved and how much we have served. They
tell the story of those who put service above profit. They tell of the strength
of a few, relatively poor, when bonded together in service.
Our assets grew $1,167.63 in 1974, $82,441.05 in 1975, and $135,902.23
since our report last year.
Shares showed a loss of $709.87 in 1974, but a growth of $30,653.82 in
1975, and $65,118.33 since we reported to you last.
Loans decreased $17,742.10 in 1974, but increased $110,648.70 in
1975, and $21 7,061 .79 since we reported to you last.
281
This increase in loan volume indicates that our members are doing more
shopping for credit. They are also realizing the value of credit union
service.
We continue to offer loans at 6% APR for saving, and 12% APR for
consumer credit.
We are finding that other lenders are charging up to 31% APR plus
other fees that makes the true cost of credit reach the 45 % area .
A further study of the comparative balance sheet will show other areas
of growth in resources and services.

This growth has not come without problems and sacrifices. Your Board
of Directors has taken constructive action to relieve some of these problems.
John Mitchell was employed in July, 1975 as bookkeeper and office as-
sistant. In January, 1976 he was employed full time. In the latter part of
1975 an Olivetti A5 accounting machine was ordered. This mini-computer
will give to us much information for internal control and management,
which will result in improved services to the members.
New legislation, by-laws, and regulations have made demands on our
time, but will result in expanded and improved credit union services in
the months ahead.
New loan applications will be in use before the end of the month. Your
cooperation in using them is a must if we are to serve you.
Share guaranty insurance will be required of all credit unions in North
Carolina by January 1, 1977. This required service is welcome even though
our loss ratio remains about 0.002% over the thirty-eight year history of
our credit union.
What of the Future?
The immediate future demands that we increase the portion of our
savings invested in our credit union. This demand is heard loud and clear
in the balance sheet — notes payable $74,000.00 This is money borrowed
to re-lend. This ought not to be, but is necessary when loan demand
exceeds savings. This needs to be wiped out by a wave of savings. Please
let it roll in now.
282
The more distant future is a great challenge. Our Credit Union needs
to grow until we can guarantee a suitable residence is in reach of everyone
of our members who comes to retirement without a place to move. We
need to bridge the gap between the parsonage and the "home over there."
This may seem to be a wild dream to some, but who would have ven-
tured to say in February 1, 1960 when we had $1,204.02 in total assets
accumulated in over 21 years, that we would be able to make a loan in
excess of $15,000.00 to buy a home in 1976! And, yet it has happened. It
is a part of our history.
Together we can do that which was thought impossible just a few years
earlier. Come join us in service.
Lay persons, churches, and other organizations can have a part in this
service through our Deposit accounts. You can invest in the credit union at
guaranteed rates even though you cannot borrow from it. We invite your
inquiry and participation.
Start saving every pay day for a special purpose. Save in Methodist
Ministers Credit Union. Help us meet the ever enlarging demands of
service.
A special word of thanks is due to those who have this service and
report possible.
CM. Mitchell, Treasurer
Division of Diaconal Ministries
Since its formation in 1968, the Lay Worker Committee has been giving
its report. The Reverend Troy Barrett was the first chairperson, the
Reverend John Cline was the second chairperson, and for the past two
years, I have served as chairperson.
I would like to call the attention of the conference to the fact that "Lay
Worker" is an office to which one aspires after having been employed in
the conference for a full year and having been ceritified by the appropriate
committee as meeting certain educational standards and requirements.
After a meeting with the Lay Worker Committee, having a letter from the
administrative board indicating their willingness to participate in the
program, obtaining a physical examination, presenting three letters of
recommendation and being voted upon by the Annual Conference, one
may become a Lay Worker. This entitles the Lay Worker to certain retire-
ment benefits as provided for in paragraph 507.1 of the Discipline which
states, "The employing agency shall include the Lay Worker in the retire-
ment plan of the Lay Employee Pension Fund (Par. 1377.12) or other
such appropriate plan as provided by the Board of Pensions or other
boards or agencies of the United Methodist Church." For the sake of uni-
formity, we recommend that the pension plan for Lay Workers in the
North Carolina Conference be based upon an annual contribution of 9%
of the employee's salary — 6% to be paid by the employing agency and 3%
by the employee (or some combination of percentages to add up to 9% ) .
We encourage local churches employing Lay Workers to pay the premiums
for Blue-Cross-Blue Shield Insurance plan, and to participate, in their
behalf, in the Conference program of Group Life Insurance.
283
The Committee on the Lay Worker also calls upon all local churches
within her bounds to consider a pension program as well as hospitaliza-
tion and life insurance, for all LAY EMPLOYEES — not only those who
qualify as a Lay Worker.
By action of the General Conference meeting in Portland, Oregon,
designation of the Lay Worker has now become "Diaconal Minister."
This word means '"to serve." In taking this action, the General Conference
recognizes the call, the dedication, and the preparation of Lay Persons
in the service and ministry of Christ and His Church. The Diaconal Min-
istry will be related to the Board of the Ministry.

The Committee on District Conference Records
The committee has examined the district conference records and finds
those of the following districts accounted for: Burlington, Elizabeth City,
Fayetteville, Goldsboro, Greenville, New Bern, Rockingham, Rocky
Mount, Sanford, and Wilmington.
Minutes in good order appear in all records examined.
The following district supermtendents' reports are recorded: Elizabeth
City, Fayetteville, Goldsboro, Greenville, New Bern, Sanford, and Wil-
mington.
The attendance is recorded for these districts:? Elizabeth City, Fayette-
ville, Greenville, New Bern, Rockingham, Rocky Mount, and Sanford.
These district conference books of reports are included: Elizabeth City,
Fayetteville, Goldsboro, Greenville, New Bern, Rocky Mount, Sanford,
and Wilmington.
We recommend that all district conference minutes should be in the
official binder, that the most current reports be placed in the front of
the binder, that inside tabs be used to designate years, and that no more
than six years of reports be in the binders.
We further recommend for the coming year these continuing guidelines
for the reports to be included in the district conference record binders:
1 . The minutes for the district conference.
2. The district superintendent's composite report.
3. The attendance records by charges.
4. The book of reports.
5. That all district conference records beyond six years be placed in the
repository of the Conference Commission on Archives and History.
6. That the minutes be signed by the district superintendent as well as
by the district conference secretary.

Composite Report of the District Superintendents
It is a high privilege to give this report of the district superintendents.
In reality, this is your report because you are a part of this report and
without your generous support this report would be far from what it is.
We are indeed grateful to you for all that you have done.
MEMBERSHIP: Many of you will recall last year when this report was
given by Dr. J.V. Early, a challenge was issued to reverse the trend of the
net loss in membership. The loss was small, 21 members, but of great
concern. I am proud to say that this trend is now reversed and we are
happy to report an increase in membership of 370 members. This may
seem to be a small increase and we should not be content, but strive to
continue this trend. All of the districts did not show an increase in mem-
bership, but the following districts had an increase: Fayetteville, with the
largest increase of 270 members, Wilmington, Greenville, Rockingham,
Burlington and Elizabeth City.
There was a slight decrease of .18% in the Conference average atten-
dance at worship; a decrease of 109 persons baptized; a decrease of
1,564 persons in total Church School Membership. There was an increase
in average Church School attendance.
PROGRAMS: The Division of Lay Life and Work with Mr. G.L.
Garrick of Jacksonville, Chairperson; The United Methodist Women
with Mrs. Clarence Cade of Fayetteville, President; The United Meth-
odist Youth, Steve Banks of Raleigh, President, have all led their respec-
tive organizations in promoting the work of the Church. Retreats, rallies
and workshops have proved to be a source of information as well as
inspiration.
The Casewell Parish-Burlington District, the Pamlico Parish in the
New Bern District; the Person Parish and the South Granville Parish in
the Durham District have proved that forms of cooperative parish plans
will work where persons are understanding and willing to try. The Fay-
etteville Urban Ministry Summer Day Camp Program reached 450 young
persons from the ghetto areas of Fayetteville and a very successful labora-
tory experience for Workers With Children and Youth was held in
Sampson County Cluster Group. The Mary Jeanne Blackburn Scholar-
ship Fund at Methodist College was initiated by the Fayetteville District.
Scout Troops, Meals on Wheels, outings for patients at Cherry State
Hospital, worship services at rest homes and day camps for the retarded
were some of the activities carried on in the Goldsboro District. Whitley
Memorial: Smithfield, has a Sunday School Class for the retarded and
had a very successful Vacation Church School for the same group. The
Rose Hill Church sponsored a day camp for the retarded. Prison min-
istries, summer beach ministries, golden age ministries have been among
the many concerns of the other districts.
The lay speakers have been called upon to supply vacant pulpits
during the period of "The No Silent Pulpit Program," and at other
times. These lay speakers have rendered a tremendous service.

ceipts in Ministerial Education, Interdenominational Cooperation Fund,
General Advance Special, Conference Advance Special and Youth Ser-
vice Fund. A slight decrease was noted in the giving to World Com-
munion, Human Relations Day, Student Day and to the Ten Dollar
Club. We are current with our recent commitment to North Carolina
Wesleyan College.
CONCLUSION:
Again, we express our thanks to the members and pastors; to the dis-
trict workers; to the members of the Boards and agencies; to the mem-
bers of the Conference Staff and to our Director for all you have done in
promoting the program of our Conference.
Four years ago, Bishop Robert M. Blackburn was appointed to the
Raleigh Area. He came to our area with zeal and enthusiasm in the inter-
est of our Conference. We thank you for your leadership. Mrs. Black-
burn, in like manner has gathered the ministers' wives about her in a
close relationship. It had been some time since we have had an episcopal
leader with a family. We are delighted with the manner in which Frances
Blackburn has assumed leadership in her community. We hold the
Blackburns in high esteem. The fourth year of Bishop Blackburn's lead-
287
ership was still filled with thoughts and activities in mind, and because of
your gracious leadership, we shall continue on to higher heights. We have
realized that "we are not here to play, to dream, to drift; We have hard
work to do and loads to lift. Shun not the struggle, face it;" Tis God's
gift. Be Strong!
James H. McCallum, President of the Cabinet
Burlington District
NICHOLAS W. GRANT DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT
May I begin my third report on the work of the United Methodist Chur-
ch in the Burlington District by expressing my gratitude for the fine work
which has been done in the development of the Caswell County
Cooperative Parish. During this year the fifteen United Methodist Chur-
ches have been joined by two Presbyterian pastorates in a united effort to
make more meaningful the work of the church in the life of Caswell Coun-
ty-
A central business office has been established in Yanceyville with the ser-
vice of a full time secretary. The following areas of service have been
projected: Christian Workers Training, Youth Work, Music, Scout Work,
Lake Ministry, Evangelism, World Hunger, Missions, Curriculum
Workshop, Stewardship Workshop, and Prison Ministry. A county Wide
Evangelistic Crusade is planned for the summer of 1976.
Each church contributes to the unified budget which also is supported
by the Duke Endowment. May we take this opportunity to express our ap-
preciation for the leadership and guidance of personnel from both the
Duke Endowment and The Duke Divinity School. Two Duke Divinity
School students are assigned for work with the Parish.
The churches of the District continue to render service to the aged and
to those with special needs.
MEMBERSHIP AND EVANGELISM - The statistics on membership
changes are not too bad until all additions and subtractions are made.
This gives the Burlington District an increase for 1975 of 38 persons.
Several churches corrected their rolls during the year.
Below you will find the District membership statistics :
Received 318 by profession of faith - Lost 188 by death
Received 298 by transfer from other Methodist churches - Lost 255 to
Methodist churches.
Received 147 from other denominations - Lost 108 to other denominations
Removed 174 by Charge Conference action
BUILDING AND IMPROVEMENTS: - Many improvements have been
made on the Physical properties of the Burlington District. Faith Church
in Burlington broke ground in May for a new parsonage. Ten other
charges have carried out extensive improvements on their parsonages.
Front Street will begin construction on a million dollar plus project
soon. Other churches building educational buildings are :
Bethel on the Burlington Ct., Friendship, New Hope and Purley, Clover
Garden on the Whitney Cross Charge.
288
Cedar Cliff of the Christ Church-Cedar Cliff Charge completed Con-
struction of a church, and Semora of the Milton Charge added an
education unit.
FINANCES - At the close of 1975 our District met all of its financial
obligations in full. In the fall charge conferences the percentage of ac-
ceptances for the various financial items were as follows: Single Figure
95.66%, Ministerial Education 67.94%, Interdenominational
Cooperation 61.30%, and Black Colleges 76.21%.
APPRECIATION - For the support of the 19,391 members of local chur-
ches who cooperated with their leaders, and the 48 members of the clergy
in making our work a success, may I express our gratitude. For the hard
work of Mrs. R.G. Wilson, District President of United Methodist Women,
and her dedicated core of workers who have supported the total program
of the church, may I say thank you.
A special word of appreciation goes to George H. Forehand who has ser-
ved as our District Lay Leader for eight years and now turns this task to
another. All of us have been inspired by his service as he has gone beyond
call of duty. Though we shall miss him in this office we look forward to his
leadership in another area of our work.
This has been a good year indeed.
Goldsboro District
J. PAUL EDWARDS, DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT
This is the report tor the dedicated and loyal ministers, 49, and layper-
sons, 15,016, of the Goldsboro District for 1975.
SPECIAL MINISTRIES - Our churches reach out into the community to
serve. Some of these services are worship services in rest homes, sponsorship
of scout troops, meals on wheels, outings for patients at Cherry State
Hospital. Rose Hill sponsored a day camp for the retarded. Whitley
Memorial, in Smithfield, has a Sunday School class for the retarded, and
had a very successful Vacation Church School for the same group.
MEMBERSHIP - Our churches received 250 persons on profession of faith,
200 by transfer from other United Methodist churches, and 126 by transfer
from other denominations. It seems that we will never get our church rolls
corrected and up to date, so, as a result of removing 141 by action of the
Charge Conference, we showed a loss of 50.
BUILDING PROGRAMS AND DEDICATIONS St. Paul Church, Gold-
sboro, completed a parsonage at a cost of $105,000; Institute charge
renovated its parsonage; Jerusalem-Bethel charge built a $40,000 par-
sonage to be occupied following Annual Conference; Bishop Blackburn
dedicated the education building at Mt. Olive: First which had cost
$193,000; Edgerton Memorial, in Selma, did extensive renovation to its
sanctuary; Trinity church completed a $52,000 parsonage; Walker
Memorial, on the Wayne circuit, built a $33,000 education building; the
district superintendent dediced Kenly's $40,000 parsonage and Bishop
Blackburn dedicated the Westwood church, on the Wayne circuit, which
had cost $50,000 to construct.
289
FINANCES - For the sixty consecutive year the Goldsboro District has paid
100% or more of its Single Figure Acceptance. This year 100.38% of ac-
ceptance was paid, and 99.7% was paid on total askings. For next year our
churches accepted 99.6% of the askings. In addition our churches paid
65% of the asking on the North Carolina Wesleyan College Special which
is intended to be raised over a period of three years.
APPRECIATION - A word of thanks must go to the fine ministers of this
district. They are dedicated and hard working servants of God, and this
report reflect in only a small way some of the fruits of their labor. It is also
quite obvious that we have very dedicated and devout laypersons. Our
special thanks go to our District Lay Leader, Thomas E. Strickland, to the
president of United Methodist Women, Mrs. Edith Holloman, and to
William S. Marley, who coordinates our Lay Speaker program. He works
hard to assure our churches that there would be no silent pulpit during
Lent.
Greenville District
R.T. COMMANDER, DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT
This report summarizes the tremendous faithfulness and dedication of
the 15,753 laypersons and 45 pastors of the Greenville District who make
up the membershp of its 69 churches. This is mostly a statisticial record
and statistics say little about things for which the Greenville District is well-
known : cooperation, spiritual growth, hard work, and delightful frien-
dship.
EVANGELISM : We are happy to report an increase in membership
within the Greenville District of 197. Although this is no great growth, it is
still on the upside at a time when the United Methodist Church generally
has been on the decline. We hope for greater growth for our Lord in the
months and years to come. Almost every church in the district has held a
revival and many churches are taking evangelism seriously through lay
visitation evangelism.
LAY LIFE AND WORK: Our laity have been busy with Kingdom en-
terprises through the United Methodist Men, United Methodist Women,
United Methodist Youth Fellowship, the District Lay Rally, the No-Silent-
Pulpit program, as well as regular local and district programs. Our Lay
Rally was a high moment in the year as a fun-filled evening was climaxed
with a Christ-filled sermon by our own friendly and dedicated Bishop
Robert M. Blackburn. Three student pastors were recipients of scholar-
ships funded by Lay Rally offerings.
NEW CHURCH BUILDINGS: A new church building at Bethany on
the Kinston Circuit was completed; Chapman's Church on the Vanceboro
Circuit brick-veneered its exterior; a fellowship hall at Lane's Chapel on
the same charge is under construction; Providence Church at Chocowinity
has relocated and a new building is under construction; Jarvis Memorial
Church has purchased an attractive $43,000 parsonage for its associate
pastor; Stantonsburg Church has plans for a new fellowship hall and
Westminster in Kinston is in the planning stage for a new or enlarged sanc-
tuary; plans are also in the making for renovations and additions at
Noble's Chapel, Holy Trinity in Greenville, and Queen Street in Kinston.
290
Although we had no church or parsonage dedictions, many debts were
reduced and buildings remodeled and refurnished. As an example, Pink
Hill purchased an adjoining lot and dedicated its stained-glass windows.
LOCAL AND GLOBAL MINISTRIES: Young adults from our district
participated in the Conference Bolivian Work Team; Jarvis Memorial
Church sent its own work team to Haiti ; many churches funded Advance
Specials. Our churches have been active in meeting human need through
the hunger appeal, Guatemalan earthquake relief, through support of
character-bulding groups such as boy scouts, girl scouts, youth fellowship,
through spirit-directed programs such as promotion of Bible reading and
Bible-study groups, and distribution of large-print Upper Rooms for the
blind. Vietnamese refugees have been adopted by congregations, tran-
sportation furnished to Church for sheltered workshop residents,
magazines and books collected for prison and alcoholic rehabilitation cen-
ters, and many other worthy ministries. For inspiration benefiting the en-
tire community Bethel Church had an outdoor Living Nativity Scene, and
other churches presented outstanding dramatic and musical programs, as
well as services centered around Christmas trees, candlelighting, and love
feasts.
FINANCES : The Greenville District paid 100.08% of its Single Figure Ac-
ceptance and 91.7% of its apportionment. This is an increase of 4.1% over
the paid apportionment of Single Figure last year. There was also an in-
crease over last year's receipts in Ministerial Education Fund, In-
terdenominational Fund, General Advance Specials, Conference Advance
Specials, Youth Service Fund, Black College Fund, and Lake Junaluska
Fund. For 1976, all but ten charges have accepted 100% of Single Figure.
Special commendation is justly given to Mrs. Jean Cuthrell, our district
president of the United Methodist Women, Frank Steinbeck, our District
Lay Leader, Ralph Hardee, our district treasurer and the dedicated
leaders of our District Council on Ministries. These persons have given
generously of their time, ideas, and energies for the furtherance of the
Kingdom.
I wish to finally say concerning the pastors and laypersons of the Green-
ville District, our beloved Bishop and our Conference staff, the only thing
worthy to be said : they love the Lord and serve Him gladly. We thank God
that we are part of His family, likewise we thank Him for the Christian
heritage of able leadership which goes back to the original cornerstone
Himself, Jesus Christ our Lord.
New Bern District
H.F. LEATHERMAN, DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT
The following report is made with deep appreciation for the dedication
of pastors and laypersons to the cause of Christ and His church.
EVANGELISM : During the year of 1975 the pastors received 275 on Con-
fession of Faith, 224 from other United Methodist Churches and 179 from
Other Denominations for a total of 678. Members removed in all
catergories totaled 843, thus the district had a loss of 165 members over the
year.
CHURCH SCHOOL: The enrollment increased by 149, but the average
attendance decreased by 87. These figures and those under Evangelism in-
291
dicate areas of concern.
STEWARDSHIP: The Single Figure Apportionment for the district was
$255,579.00 and $243,867.00 was accepted. The amount paid on Ac-
ceptance was $239,789.95 or 93.8% . The district has made progress in all
areas of Stewardship by increasing the amount accepted and paid on Black
College Fund, Interdenominational Cooperation Fund, Ministerial
Education Fund and increased support of Advance Specials.
LAY LIFE AND WORK: Our district had a very fine Lay Rally with ap-
proximately 550 in attendance and an offering of $660.00 for scholarships.
BUILDING PROGRAMS: Clarks Church on the Beech Grove Charge has
been completed and is now in use.
A new Educational Building and Sanctuary renovation program is
nearing completion at Harkers Island.
A new Sanctuary and Educational Building are under construction at
Marshallberg.
A new Sanctuary has been completed and is now occupied at Salter
Path.
PARSONAGES: Franklin Memorial in Morehead City has purchased a
home for a parsonage and the Trenton Charge has been given a home and
will soon be occupied by the pastor.
UNITED METHODIST WOMEN : Three Sub-district Meetings were held
with good attendance and an excellent program on the theme "Unity In
Community"
UNITED METHODIST YOUTH FELLOWSHIP: The youth of the
district continue to manifest concern and seek to be a part of all activities
and programs.
Raleigh District
W.B. PETTEWAY, DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT
My first report as a district superintendent is made with sincere ap-
preciation for the faithful labors of our 53 pastors and generous support of
our nearly 28,000 members in the Raleigh District. We have tried to
promote the full program of the Church. In many areas there has been
progress and much good work in Christ's name has been done.
We are pleased to report a net increase in membership of 166. It is
significant to note that 416 persons were received on Profession of Faith.
Though we have not had the numerical growth we would like, we now
believe the downward trend has been reversed and our people are serious
about evanglism.
There seems to be a renewed interest in the importance of the Church
School. Apex has done an outstanding job in increasing church school
enrollment and attendance. The quality of our church school work con-
tinues to improve. Youth work in many of the churches has abandoned
traditional patterns, and has thereby become a challenging and exciting
part of The Church's life.
There are indications of growing stewardship throughout the district.
The people have contributed almost $15,000 to World Missions and more
than $11,000 to relieve World Hunger. $70,000 was subscribed in The
Wesleyan college Campaign. Almost 96% of The Single Figure Asking was
accepted by the churches of the district. Pastors salaries showed a good in-
292
crease.
Another indication of activity and commitment on the part of our
people can be seen in plans for a new sanctuary at White Plains and Ben-
son Memorial. Contracts will be let this Fall. A new parsonage was pur-
chased by Wesley Memorial in Raleigh. Ebenezer recently completed and
consecrated a new parsonage. Vance Charge and Home Memorial, Clay-
ton, have dedicated parsonages. An extensive renovation program has
made Hollands Church most attractive.
The work of The United Methodist Women continues vigorous and ef-
fective. Both the quality and the quantity of the work of this organization
is outstanding.
It is a privilege to be associated with the loyal people of The Raleigh
District, and I thank God for His sustaining power during the year.
Rockingham District:
C.G. McCARVER, DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT
The Rockingham District is just completing its first four years of existen-
ce. It embraces Richmond, Robeson and Santland Counties and is com-
posed of some of the most loyal Methodist Ministers and Lay Persons to be
found anywhere. We feel proud and honored to be a part of such a
progressive group of Methodists.
EVANGELISM: during 1976 Conference year the pastors and laymen
have been instrumental in gaining a new increase of 202 members. The
average attendance in both Church School and Worship services show an
increase.
BUILDING AND IMPROVEMENTS: Improvements have been made at
Prospect, New Zion, Beauty Spot, Central in Laurinburg, First in Laurin-
burg, Lumberton Circuit, St. George-Piney Grove, Roberdel, Pee Dee;
Dedication was held for Central Parsonage, Educational Building, and
Annex. The Educational Building was dedicated at Bethesda. Prospect in
the midst of completing educational addition; Beauty Spot is renovating
its plant; East Rockwell will dedicate its educational annex in the near
future; Rowland will soon dedicate its new Educational plant.
Philadelphus is planing a new Sanctuary; Ash Pole is building a new Sanc-
tuary; Fellowship-Hamlet is planning a new facility; Pleasant Grove is
about to embark on building a new educational facility; Glenwood has
purchased a new parsonage lot; West Rockingham purchased a new par-
sonage. A new District Parsonage was purchased and furnished.
LUMBERTON RETIREMENT HOME: Under the very capable leader-
ship of the Reverend LaFon C. Vereen we will be in the new facility by
Easter this year.
MISSIONS: Missionary giving has increased this year in mission specials.
The Single Figure will be already paid in full by closing date.
UNITED METHODIST WOMEN: Under the leadership of Mrs. George
Briley, the United Methodist Women have done excellent work.
THE LAITY: The District Lay Activities has been re-organized this year
and Mr. Howard Cooper is Lay Leader. The District Lay Rally was a huge
success in attendance -over 800 in attendance, Prospect having over 200
present. Dr. Leo Jenkins was the speaker.
The Rockingham District has enjoyed a good year and looks forward to
293
even greater things. It is a pleasure to be a part of its program and
Kingdoms work.
Rocky Mount District
J.M. CLINE, DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT
The ministries of the pastors and laypersons of the Rocky Mount district
are recorded with honor upon the hearts of men, women, and children and
upon the manuscripts of God. Some highlights of the year, 1975, should be
recorded in the minutes of our Annual Conference.
Documenting the fact that leadership in the district in many places has
been outstanding are two special awards made by the 1975 Session of the
North Carolina Annual Conference. Mr. James R. Watkins, our District
Lay Leader and Chairperson of the District Council on Ministries, received
recognition as Lay Person of the Year. Rosemary Church, Roanoke Rapids
was honored as Church of the Year for churches in the membership range
500-1000.
EVANGELISM - Evangelism continues a top priority of the district, New
World Missioner, Mr. B.J. Tommy, Methodist layman of Sierre Leone,
preached the week of March 16th at Englewood United Methodist Church.
Two of our ministers, Billy Carden and Tom Collins, have received special
training and are now serving the Conference as New Life Missioners. The
total membership of the district is 18,545, four less than at the close of
1974. Moving from a net loss of 23 at the close of 1974 we believe we are
moving in the right direction and will report a net gain in membership at
the close of the year 1976.
EDUCATION — The total membership in the Church Schools of the
district decreased from 8,988 to 8,853 during the year, but this was ac-
companied with an increase in average attendance. Increase in par-
ticipation in learning groups other than the Church School totaled 529.
We point out with pride the strength and vitality shown by the Youth Sub-
District organization in the Roanoke Rapids area. It carries on a ministry
to and through the youth that merits recognition throughout the Con-
ference.
FINANCES - For the calendar year 1975 the churches paid 92.4% of their
Single Figure apportionment and 98.9% of the Single Figure acceptance.
The following amounts were paid: Lake Junaluska - 3,797; General and
Conference Advance Specials - 9,337 ; and $10 Club - 2,420.
BUILDINGS - The Educational Building at Spring Church on the Spring-
Garysburg Charge was dedicated by the District Superintendent on July
27, 1975. New Educational Buildings are under construction at Wilson:
West Nash; Nashville; Hawkins on the Hawkins-Tabor Charge; and New
Hope on the Roanoke Charge.
UNITED METHODIST WOMEN - Focus of the North Carolina Con-
ference United Methodist Women was upon First United Methodist chur-
ch, Rocky Mount as the site of the 1975 Annual Meeting on October 3 and
4. The District Meeting of United Methodist Women met at First Church,
Wilson on October 23rd with Dr. Marvin Vick, Superintendent of the
Methodist Home for Children as speaker.
DISTRICT LAY RALLY - The District Lay Rally was held at First Chur-
ch, Rocky Mount, the program highlighting the Conference emphasis
294
upon Youth and Young Adults. The speaker, Mr. Weddie Huffman, per-
sonnel official with Burlington Industries, inspired and challenged the
group of 500 men, women, and youth to recognize opportunities for being
Christian in our every-day relationships and activities.
Sanford District
J.H. McCALLUM, DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT
Thanks to Almighty God and to the members and pastors of the Sanford
District for another prosperous year.
MEMBERSHIP: Our district gained 541 members but we had a loss of
658, making a net loss of 117. We have accepted this with regret and have
begun to rectify this loss in a concerted effort. We trust that the next report
will show an increase.
STEWARDSHIP : We have had an increase in the percentage of the Single
Figure Apportionment paid over last year by 2.69% . The total increase for
salaries, travel and utilities for the pastors was 16.86%. Most of the
charges have been involved in a program of stewardship over the past year
with marvelous results.
PROGRAMS: The District Council on Ministries, the Reverend Reginald
W. Ponder, chairperson, was engaged in a two-day planning retreat. The
program for the year was well planned and carried out. The workshop in
local church leadership was well attended. The Laity Rally, under the
leadership of our lay leader, L.M. Lutterloh, was held at Sanford: St.
Luke, with a large crowd attending. Mrs. Jo Ann Foster of Charlotte and
Bishop Blackburn were the speakers. The Lay Leader accompanied the
district superintendent to the charge conferences, reminding the layper-
sons of the many opportunities to be witnesses for Christ. Fifty-five lay
speakers took part in the "No Silent Pulpit Program", traveling 4,900 miles
to fill sixty-five speaking engagements and speaking to approximately
4,625 persons. We commend these lay speakers who have taken advantage
of this opportunity to proclaim the gospel and witness for Christ. The
laymen's two-day retreat at Camp Cresmont was well attended and proved
to be a great spiritual uplift. The women, under the leadership of Mrs.
C.P. McMillan, have moved forward. We feel that the program will con-
tinue to progress under the leadership of the new president, Mrs. Max
Matthews. The youth organization of which the Reverend Tommy Hern-
don, Jr. is coordinator and Kevin King is president, has had a very good
year. We hope to move in the direction of organizing a young adult group.
GUILDINGS AND IMPROVEMENTS: The Morris Chapel Church has
completed its renovations. The Lemon Springs Church has completed a
beautiful parsonage and the church building has been repaired. The
Pleasant Hill Charge is building a new parsonage. The Cameron Church
on the Vass Charge is erecting an education building. The McQueens
Church on the Sanford Circuit is making plans for an education building
and church building repairs. Sanford: St. Luke has completed a Youth
House.
EVANGELISM: The district had an intensive period of visitation and
preaching event during the month of February, under the guidance of the
Reverend Wilbur C. Teachey, chairperson of Evangelism. Reports from
this effort are encouraging and the next report should reveal an increase in
295
membership.
Wilmington District
JAMES A. AUMAN, DISTRICT SUPERINTENDENT
The Wilmington District council on Ministries began this year with
plans to make Evangelism and Christian Education top priorities, and we
have seen great interest in both areas. We had a net gain in membership of
235. Total membership as of January 1, 1976, was 15,175. Many of our
congregations held Lenten services and also studied Bishop Mack Stokes'
book "The Holy Spirit and Christian Experience."
Church School training opportunitites were offered in Wilmington,
Long Beach-Southport, and Elizabethtown, besides our having two
vacation church school workshops with enthusiastic participation by 30 of
our 42 charges.
During last summer, a vital ministry was provided in our beach areas:
Carolina Beach, Ocean view, and the area south of Oak Island which was
served by Shallotte: Camp and Shallotte Ct. We are continuing efforts for
summer ministry to those who vacation on our coast, and we are grateful
for the financial contributions made by local churches beyond our district.
An outstanding event for the Wilmington District has been that four
young men and one young woman were approved by the District Com-
mittee on the Ministry for License to Preach. They are: Clayton Z. Price,
Jimmie Ray Tatum, Raleigh Clyde Dixon, Kenneth Ray Worthington,
and Mrs. Rena Vereen. At the present time, we have several other can-
didates for the ministry.
We are grateful to the concerned laymen who have worked diligently to
improve physical facilities of churches and parsonages. Building projects
are in progress in Whitesville, Dixon and Andrews chapel on Shallotte Ct.,
Old Dock, and plans are being made at Bethel-Lebanon for a new par-
sonage. Additional land has been received by Pine Valley, Wilmington,
and Bethlehem Church on the Bladen Charge. Trinity and Wesley's
Chapel, Elizabethtown, have purchased additional real estate.
The District Parsonage was dedicated on November 2, and Open House
held for the district with more than 200 persons attending.
Financially, the Wilmington District responded wholeheartedly to the
call for N.C. Wesleyan College, last fall, and reached its quota, with
$20,000 of our $33,000 goal paid. We came to the end of the 1975 finan-
cial year having paid 98% of our Single Figure acceptance.
For the second consecutive year, in Wilmington, The District Coor-
dinator of Missions has initiated a "Mission Saturation Week-end",
resulting in improved support for Advance Specials and other mission
work. We are proud that two of our young people, Tom Ballard and Kathi
Beall, will be working with the Bolivia Work Team this summer.
A word of thanks to Dean Morton, District Lay Leader, and Mrs. M.L.
Barton, District President of United Methodist Women, for their out-
standing leadership in all areas of work with the laity. The Lay Rally in
February, and the District and Subdistrict meetings of United Methodist
Women were well- attended and in all endeavors these wonderful groups
have supported the work of the District. Also, three District Youth Rallies
were held.
296
And, to the District council on Ministries, a special word of thanks for
doing well the job assigned and helping to carry out the program of the
district — to these leaders, and to the 70 congregations go the credit for a
good and busy year.

Methodist Foundation, Inc.
During the past year — our twenty-first — the investment policies of your
foundation have again withstood the test of the market place, and I am
pleased to say that our long range investment objectives to date have
proven to be sound. Earnings and distributed dividends — since inceptions
— have shown an uninterrupted year-to-year improvement. During 1975,
dividend distribution was in excess of $293,000 — by far the largest earn-
ings distribution to date. Total assets of your foundation now exceed five
million dollars. The Board of Pensions participation at year end was 56%
of total assets; and, continues to grow both dollar wise and percent wise in
importance.
During the year, we have further consolidated the fixed income sector
of the portfolio into larger units; and, have added both to the fixed in-
come and the real estate mortgage sectors at near historically high interest
yields.
There is reason to believe that during the coming year earnings will
again reflect a continued improvement — which will make possible an even
greater dividend distribution for the year ending 1976.

Report of the Joint Advisory Committee on Higher Education
The 1975 sessions of both the North Carolina and the Western North Caro-
lina Annual Conferences authorized the appointment of a Joint Advisory Com-
mittee on Higher Education. The committee of ten representatives from each
conference has been appointed by the respective bishops for each conference.
The purpose of the committee is to continue the study and advisory functions
begun in the Joint Planning and Study Committee which completed its work
with the submission of its report to the 1975 sessions of the two conferences.
The Joint Advisory Committee, in defining the mandate given it by the
conferences, has explored several areas of possible activity. A high priority is
seen in a continuing review of information from each of our colleges with a view
to advising the conferences as to the progress of the several schools and an
exploration of additional possibilities of cooperation. The committee seeks the
coordination of the higher education commitments of both conferences, mind-
ful that our United Methodist students attend both public and United Meth-
odist schools across conference lines in large numbers. The committee is devel-
oping a plan for a study of campus ministry and anticipates requesting both
conferences to join in the cost of this undertaking.

Methodist Information
Methodist Information seeks to get the news of the church to the church
and to the secular world. There are times when we would wish for more visi-
bility, but when we evaluate news that sell newspapers, we are glad that we are
not front page.
We wish to commend the press coverage given, especially local papers that
carry items from churches across the conference and recommend that the
ministers and those responsible for communications at the local church level
make more information available to local press. Newspaper clippings coming to
Methodist Information indicate that most newspapers use all the information
that comes to their attention, especially is this true of the small non-daily papers
whose reader audience relate to the churches in this area.
Coverage of the United Methodist Church news in eastern North Carolina
has been carried by UPI, and AP press wire services, TV and radio outlets and
church press. Special commendations are due the Fayetteville Observer the
Fayetteville Times, the News and Observer, the wire services and other media.
This Annual Conference has been carried by the Fayetteville Observer, The
Fayetteville Times, the News and Observer, and through AP and UPI to the
other papers in our area. Channel 5 television in Raleigh has covered the
Conference. Taped reports are being carried by WPTF Raleigh, and the Caro-
lina sponsored news network which feeds local radio stations across the
conference.
The Conference Pictorial Directory being photographed during the con-
ference is sponsored by Methodist Information. This will be a valuable tool
for our ministry, and there is hope that a new directory will be produced
each five years hereafter.
John M. Meares, Methodist Information
Division of Lay Life and Work
There have been times during the past five years when I have had a reluc-
tance to make a report to the Annual Conference because I felt that all of the
goals we had set for ourselves at the beginning of the year had not been accom-
plished. In some cases we did not even come close, but this year is different.
Many of you have had the experience of being on a large ship as it was leaving
the dock. The order is given to cast off all lines and the huge engines begin to
groan as the giant propellars churn the water. The whole ship begins to vibrate,
but nothing happens for what seems like several minutes and then the great
vessel slowly begins to inch forward. It takes a great effort to get that huge mass
of steel moving in a given direction, but once moving it becomes equally hard to
stop. We hope this is true of the Division of Lay Life and Work. In 1974 we
groaned and vibrated, but we did not move far from the dock. In 1975 we had
the momentum going and progress was made.
As usual, our Lay Rallies increased in attendance to nearly eight thousand.
We do have two concerns, however. The first is that our programs and format
continue to appeal to the Laity and not become the same old thing year after
year. With this idea in mind we have begun experimenting with a new format in
several of the districts and these changes have been well accepted. We hope to
303
implement these new ideas in other districts during the coming years. Our
second concern is attendance. The Rallies continue to grow, but the partici-
pants are changing. Five years ago we had just under seven thousand in atten-
dance and they were nearly all men. Today we have over 7500 but half are
women. We are very pleased to have added the 3500 women, but what has
happened to the 3000 men we seem to have lost? We need to put some thought
into how we can get them back.
The Lay Retreat held last year here at Methodist College was a great success
as far as the program was concerned, however the attendance was small. An-
other fine program is being offered at the Retreat this year to be held June 26
and 27 here at the College. For the first time this will be a true Laity Retreat
with the ladies being included.
Our January Workshops seem to improve each year as new lay officers are
trained for their work in the local church. A great deal of credit for the success
of these workshops goes to Bob Baldridge. He puts a great deal of work and
imagination into this project as well as all of the other projects he undertakes.
participation by the Laity of the North Carolina Conference at the South-
eastern Jurisdictional Layman's Retreat has always been rather low, however a
gradual improvement has been made from about 30 people five years ago to
over 150 people last year.
The best pan of this report, the part where momentum comes in, is in
reference to the United Methodist Men. It is in this area that the most progress
has been made. As of April of this year the North Carolina Conference had the
second largest number of United Methodist Men Groups registered with the
Nashville office of any conference in the United States. We have 142 groups
registered. We believe we have an equal number of United Methodist Men
Groups who have never been chartered with Nashville and we urge them to do
so. In a recent tabulation of UMM Groups submitting reports in the Bishop's
Award Competition we learned that these Groups raised a surprisingly large
amount of money for various church projects. Only one- third of the registered
groups submitted reports and these were mostly from smaller churches, yet they
reported a total of $40,000 raised during 1975. From this we could conserva-
tively estimate that the total amount raised was well in excess of $100,000.
This money was used for many purposes. In addition to the usual lawn mowing,
painting and maintainence work some of the other projects reported were, spon-
soring 50 different Boy Scout Troups, offering 25 Scholarships, taking church
census, building athletic fields, working at our church camps, establishing local
relief funds, building youth activity buildings, God's Acre Plantings, Air condi-
tioning the church, carrying out a prison ministry to men and youth in our
correctional institutions, purchasing organs, stained glass windows and chimes,
paying salaries of organist and choir directors, buying church buses and even
preparing meals honoring the women of the church. Twenty-five of the Groups
reported carrying out a regular program of visitation to shut-ins and many
groups sponsor regular prayer breakfasts and Bible study groups. And where did
all of this money for these projects come from? From auctions, rummage sales,
fair booths, Christmas tree sales, fish frys, steak suppers, chicken suppers, bar-
beque dinners, fruit cake and peanut sales.
But all of this is secondary to the main purpose of United Methodist Men and
that is to promote Christian fellowship among men and boys. According to the
304
reports submitted the United Methodist Men, where they are organized, have
pursued this goal with success. With all of this successful activity on behalf of
the church, how can anyone say, "We don't need a men's group in our church"?
We could have done better, but it has been a good year.

Ministerial Course of Study School
The theme for the 1976 Ministerial Course of Study School is, as the brochure
suggests, "Theology Plus." We are concerned that each lay pastor have a basic
education in theology and especially in the Wesleyan theological perspective.
There is a course in Bible courses in general theology and doctrine and in
United Methodist history and doctrine as well. Further, there are three courses
in preaching, three in pastoral care and counseling, and several in church life
in general. We want to emphasize the practical dimensions of the pastor's
theological education from the beginning.
The 1976 school begins with registration on Monday, June 28, and concludes
on July 23. The 1975 enrollment was 289 with 68 students attending from the
North Carolina Conference.
Again this year and especially this year -since it marks the retirement of
Bill Sherman and Bob Bundy from the Conference Board of Ministry — I
wish to express my deep personal appreciation for the splendid leadership which
William Sherman and Robert Bundy have given to the lay pastor's work in your
annual conference. These two men and many others have given supportive
encouragement to all of us associated with the Ministerial Course of Study
School. Thank you.
Paul A. Mickey, Director
Division of Stewardship
We close the first quadrennium of the Division of Stewardship taking
note of progress in the work of the Division each year and also in the
Department of Gifts and Wills. The Report of the Department of Gifts and
Wills for this past Conference year is in a separate report.
The Division of Stewardship this year included the following activities.
Ten churches have used the Christian Stewardship Crusade. The Buck-
horn United Methodist Church on the Kenly Charge accepted the national
invitation to test and evaluate the new Time and Talent Program devel-
oped by Dwight Newberg. Members of the Executive Committee con-
ducted a section on stewardship motivation in the January workshops in
each district. A Training Seminar on Stewardship designed principally
for District Chairpersons was held at Methodist College with 25 persons
registered, and led by national staff members. In consultation with na-
tional leaders, a model plan for Christian Family financial Planning was
developed and local churches, sub-district and districts may wish to sched-
ule a seminar of this through the Reverend C. Franklin Grill. Three mem-
bers of our division, along with Mr. Grill, attended a workshop on Family
Financial Planning last November. Throughout the year an emphasis has
305
been on tithing with promotional materials distributed through the Co-
ordinated Mailing, and the District Chairpersons. We are happy to report
the per capita giving of our people has increased to $95.00. A district
workshop was developed on psychological aspects regarding stewardship
in the Greenville and Eilizabeth City Districts.
To better equip our division members in the work of our division three
of our members attended the Evangelism and Stewardship Conference in
Philadelphia in January 1976, and the Chairperson of the Division and the
Coordinator of Resources attended the National Association of Steward-
ship Leaders meeting in Colorado Springs in April, 1975.
The Coordinator of Resources has held numerous consultations with
churches regarding their stewardship programs.
Four Wills and Estate Planning Seminars were held during the year. On
March 31, 1976, a Full time director of deferred giving was employed.
See the details of this report in the Report of The Department of Gifts
and Wills.

Bruce D. Taylor, Secretary
Department of Gifts and Wills
The Department of Gifts and Wills has worked during 1975 and 1976
to negotiate with Louisburg College, Methodist College, North Carolina
Wesleyan College, Methodist Home for Children and Methodist Retire-
ment Homes, Inc. to create a job description for a ful time director of
deferred giving. This person would prepare a complete deferred giving
program for those five institutions and other Conference agencies and local
churches to enable individuals to employ this method of giving in their
stewardship of capital. After several months of interviewing prospective
presons, Jerald J. Pierce was employed on March 31, 1976 to fill this
important position. This is the first time since 1970 that our Conference
has had full time personnel in this vital area.
We know of a few wills that were probated this year to make
We know of a few wills that were probated this year to make bequests
to our churches or Conference agencies. Since very little effort has been
applied in this direction through the Department of Gifts and Wills, the
results have been proportionate. We expect to be able to make a better
report next year.
Funds have been disbursed on several scholarship funds and lifetime
trusts already established. Methodist Foundation has agreed to continue
to offer its investment facilities to the program of deferred giving as it is
expanded under new leadership.

Task Force on the Black Church
The Task Force on the Black Church was appointed by Bishop Black-
306
burn in December of 1975. The first meeting of the Task Force was held
January 31, 1976. Officers elected are :
RufusH. Stark, II — Chairperson
Leroy Spells — Vice-chairperson
Preston C . Jones — Secretary
The Stated purpose is :
"To identify needs of the Black Church and make appropriate recom-
mendations. In identifying needs, the Task Force will not attempt to
duplicate services that are already being provided but may make
attempts to coordinate some activities with other agencies of the Con-
ference.
I. It became quickly apparent that the Annual conference action most
significant to the Black Church was the creation of the Coordinator/
Enabler for Special Ministries and Economic Development staff posi-
tion. The position was authorized in 1974 and was to have been fdled
in June, 1975. The functions to be accomplished are clearly relevant
to the well-being of minority groups in the area of our Conference and
would thus result in strengthening the Black Church and increasing
our Black constituency.
The Task Force has felt and expressed deep frustration that the posi-
tion had not been filled. We do not feel comfortable with the explana-
tion that in two years' time no one could be found who could fit the
job description. It is imperative that the functions described in the
paper adopted by the 1974 Annual Conference be fulfilled if we are
to salvage any credibility among minorities both in our membership
and our constituency.
II. We request that upgrading parsonages in our Black Churches be made
a priority for this new quadrennium. Several of these charges do not
provide parsonages. We feel that adequate housing is one dimension
of a stronger base for ministry in our Black Churches.
III. General Conference made Ethnic Minority Churches one of the three
major priorities for this quadrennium. In view of this action, it is the
feeling of this task group that the scope of the Task Force on the Black
Church should be enlarged to include all ethnic minority churches.
We have made this recommendation to Bishop Blackburn.
IV. The 1976 General Conference has made provision for greatly expand-
ed reach among our Black constituency. We are called upon to sup-
port the appeal to participate in the providing of $5.5 million dollars
across the nation. $2 million will be raised through apportioned
giving. $3.5 million will be raised through adding a fifth lane to Ad-
vance Special Giving.
By supporting forthrightly their appeal we will be in a position to
tuilize funding by expanding our ministry with the Black constituency.
We can all feel positive about the possibilities before us.
V. We commend to all local churches for careful study the report of the
Consultation on Ethnic Minority Local Churches in the United Meth-
odist Church, especially the section applying to the Black Church.
The report is found in the Advance Edition of the Daily Christian
Advocate, the section on the Black American Ethnic Minority Church
on pageD70.
307
Several impacts come forth from the report.
A. That the whole church celebrate the rich heritage of Black Meth-
odism and benefit from their tradition.
B. That we strengthen existing Black congregations.
C. That we heighten recruitment of Black pastoral leadership by:
1) Demonstrating that the appointive system is truly open and that
a person's effectiveness as a minister of the gospel should not be
categorized by race. 2) Providing adequate salaries for full-time
ministry in Black Churches.
Rufus H.Stark, II
Chairperson
Task Force on Hunger
The Task Force on Hunger was organized on February 7, 1976. At the
organizational meeting officers were elected and an Executive Committee
formed.
Two things have been of concern to this Task Force since its inception.
The first has been CLARIFICATION. There had been some lack of
clarity last year as to the relation of "One Great Hour of Sharing" to a
special offering for "World Hunger." The Executive Committee sought to
prevent any misunderstanding this year and a letter was compiled to send
to all churches. The letter emphasized the needs of hunger, gave sugges-
tions for ways to raise money for hunger alleviation, explained the impor-
tance of "One Great Hour of Sharing" and "World Hunger Advance,"
and showed how to mark the offerings sent to the Conference Treasurer.
The second concern has been COORDINATION. Much discussion
has taken place as to ways of coordinating efforts in the local church in
raising money for hunger relief. Our Task Force will be seeking to aid local
churches in these efforts during the coming months.
The importance of the work of the Task Force on Hunger is emphasized
by the action of our last General Conference in Portland. At that meeting
the problems dealing with hunger were given high priority. By action of
the General Conference 2 million dollars for "Hunger Missional Priority"
will be raised through the regular budgets of local churches. In addition 3
million will be designated under the Advance as "Hunger Missional Prior-
ity." We recognize the magnitude of our task but are convinced that the
resources are available to meet this tremendous challenge.
As we attack the problem of hunger we are aware that solutions will not
be simple. We also know that financial support, by itself, is not enough.
During the coming months and years we will be called upon to be involved
in efforts to alleviate hunger around the world. We believe the approach of
WHEAT (World Hunger Education Action Together) gets at the prob-
lems of hunger in emergency situations as well as "root causes." The sug-
gestions made by WHEAT are five-fold: (1) Commit yourself to intensive
study of the problem of hunger, (2) Become directly involved in dealing
with hunger issues in your community, (3) Support advocacy efforts at
state and national level for public policy changes on food and related
issues, (4) Provide financial support for attacking hunger, and (5)
308
Change your own life -style toward reduced and less wasteful food and
energy consumption.
Our Task Force on Hunger will seek to work diligently to get our churches
involved in the tremendous task of alleviation of hunger "at home and
abroad."

Division of Missions
This report of the Division of Missions comes at the end of the quadren-
nium. During this period the report and reports of the past four years will
reflect :
1. Significant increase in missional giving through the Advance
program of the church. Records indicate a 427% increase in giving
through the Advance since 1972. The numbers of churches involved
in the Advance has grown significantly.
2. The development of the Volunteers in Mission ministry has come
about in this quadrennium. This year the fourth Conference Mission
Work Team goes to Bolivia. For the first time a Conference team will
go to Tampa, Florida, The Mission Team concept is proving to be a
viable program for local church sponsorship.
3. The dawning awareness that we are truly a part of a Global Church,
receiving as well as giving.
4. Clear gains in Urban Ministries through the development of solid un-
derstanding leading to establishment of programs in our Urban set-
tings.
5. A desire to give special attention to pastoral leadership and support
in our smaller churches. This emphasis has led to investigation of
ways to build the confidence of smaller churches. The result has been
the founding of several cooperating charges.

Report of the Committee on Education and Cultivation
The Committee on Education and Cultivation has increased its sub-
committees from two to four during the quadrennium, 1972-1976. These
sub-committees are The Advance, Mission Studies, Interpretation, and
Volunteers in Short Term Mission. The work of mission education and
cultivation continues to grow in the North Carolina Conference as local
churches become more responsive to the commission to be involved in
outreach ministries.
The Advance Committee of the Board of Global Ministries in New York
indicates that giving to the Advance increased since 1972 by 206%. In the
same space of time, the giving to the Advance in the North Carolina Con-
ference increased by 427%. We are pleased to have come to the point
310
where in 1975 every member of North Carolina United Methodism was
represented by $1.11 in missional giving. We have improved from being
72nd in mission giving in the United States among the Annual Conferences
to 45th. Four years ago, we had less than one dozen churches giving $500
or more to missionaries' salary support. Today we have churches giving
$750 or more to the support of 22 missionaries serving in 10 countries.
There are 126 churches giving $500 or more in advanced specials at this
time. The membership in the Ten Dollar Club increased by 10% this year.
We thank God for the movement of His Holy Spirit in our midst as we
become more and more involved in the mission of the church.
Through the effort of special Mission Studies, our Conference Leader-
ship School has developed an outstanding approach to missionary
education. The dean of the CLS is now the chairperson of the sub-
committee on Mission Studies. More and more churches within the North
Carolina Conference are seriously studying one or more of the annual
Mission Studies. Guides were provided for their study. Also, visual
education is more available through the Media Center, formerly TRAFCO
in Raleigh. Reverend Bunn, having represented the Board of Global
Ministries in Africa at the World Council of Churches in 1975, will be
teaching in two Conference Leadership Schools the study, South Africa: A
Dilemma for Christians.
The Committee on Interpretation is a new sub committee of the Com-
mittee on Cultivation and Education which has the following purposes:
1. Planning all Conference-wide mission interpretation events, e.g., tri-
district "Why Global?" seminars, district mission rallies.
2. Scheduling all missionary itineration by North Carolina Conference
missionaries while home on furlough.
3. Assisting District Missionary Chairpersons in planning district
Mission Saturation Events.
4. Providing lists of available mission interpreters for local churches.
5. Encouraging all local churches to provide mission interpretation in
their communities.
6. Designing a brochure to interpret missions for North Carolina Con-

Leadership School, Lay Rallies, et cetera.
8. Publicity of Division of Missions Ministries in North Carolina
Christian Advocate, Associated Press and United Press Wire,
Television and newspapers.
During the Conference year 1975-1976, our major accomplishment was
production of an interpretive booklet titled "Love Is" To Be Alive in
Mission which presents a panorama of missionary programs and projects of
our North Carolina Conference. Copies will be given to each Pastor and
Work Area Chairperson on Missions.
The committee on interpretation provided an outline for slide presen-
tation to be used by the Committee on Volunteers in their presentations
across the Conference. The expanded committee also produced a color
filmstrip: "Our Global Ministries," depicting how our Board of Global
311
Ministries shares the gospel at home and abroad. Projects located in the
North Carolina Conference and supported by the Board were highlighted.
Copies of this filmstrip have been placed in the Media Center and in each
District Superintendent's office. The "Why Global?" event was planned
and carried out by this committee with the help of other key Conference
leaders.
This committee seeks to have the ministries of the Division of Missions
communicated to the people of our Conference through special reports, a
course in leadership school, and additional use of the media. There is no
known equivalent to this committee at the Jurisdictional level.
Our newest sub-committee is the one on Volunteers in Short Term
Mission. This committee has planned mission work teams in Bolivia and in
the United States. Approximately 100 people have been involved in serving
on these work teams. Presently, a group is preparing itself to go to the Alto
Piano, to Villareal, both in Bolivia, and a group to Zolfo Springs, Florida,
to work with Reverend Saul Espino. This sub-committee has also produced
a guide booklet on developing work teams or short term mission projects.
Those of us who have served on the Committee on Education/Cul-
tivation have appreciated the support we have received from the laity and
clergy of the North Carolina Annual Conference. We especially appre-
ciate the leadership of Bishop Robert M. Blackburn who has continued to
challenge us beyond our achievements, being appreciative of what has
been accomplished but knowing that there is still greater ministry to be
performed. We trust that the new quadrennium, 1976-1980, will open
even more doors for missional involvement throughout the world as we in
North Carolina become a part of it. It has been a real joy on my part,
as the Conference Missionary Secretary to serve in the North Carolina
Conference and to represent you as President of the Southeastern Juris-
diction Fellowship of Conference Missionary Secretaries.

Church and Community Committee
The Church and Community Committee has been active this year in
various programs and places. It is the responsibility of this committee to
give supervision to the church and community workers and to see that
these workers are adequately funded through National Division, Con-
ference and Local funds. We have two workers in our Conference at the
time of this report. Miss Betty Purkey, and Miss Bernice Ballance. We
have assisted the Robeson County Church and Community toward a full
time director, The Reverend Robert L. Mangum.
312
We have been active in the Tri-Conference Coalition as a means of
relating our work in changing times to the work of our sister Conferences.
We have been the contract agency through which The Association for
Christian Services has worked in our Conference. We have continued the
Church of the Year Award.
The Town and Country Parish Development Committee
This committee re-affirms its commitment to the fostering of a stronger
Parish ministry. We encourage churches of small membership to engage in
cooperative ministry with other nearby churches, thus strengthening the
ministry of all churches involved. Such cooperation can, and should, begin
with multi-church charges. We encourage leadership at all levels to be sen-
sitive to this possibility. We are convinced that such cooperation is essential
if the church of small membership is to take full advantage of its resources
and provide significant ministry to its community.
Urban Committee
The major concern of the Urban Ministries Committee this year has
been the failure of many churches in transitional communities to deal with
the issues that confront them. We have encouraged and will continue to
encourage these congregations to consider adopting forms of ministry to
meet the needs of persons living in these rapidly changing (socially and
economically) neighborhoods.
We commend The Reverend Eric Carson for the tremendous job he has
done as director of FAYETTEVILLE URBAN MINISTRIES during the
past two years. Under his leadership, this non-traditional form of ministry
has become very productive in that the established churches of Fayetteville
have been able to reach areas and confront issues that prior to 1974 were,
for the most part, left alone.
We also commend The Reverend Gladys Williford and Mr. Bill
Bingham for directing the Apartment Ministries Model at Wynnwood
Park in Raleigh; the Reverend Preston Jones for his leadership at
Cokesbury; the Reverend Frank Lloyd for his efforts in Durham; the
Reverend John Hobbs for his creative venture in Jacksonville; Mr. Frank
Ballard for his innovative spirit in Wilmington.
We have appreciated the financial support for these projects that has
come from the Conference Advance, the North Carolina conference
Division of Missions, The National Division of Missions, the Raleigh Board
of Missions, and hundreds of concerned laymen.
We have also been most appreciative of the Reverend Neil C. Leach of
ACTS for his dynamic leadership that has enabled our Conference to get
some handles on and deal constructively with the many unique urban
problems and issued that this complex area poses.

Report of the Committee on Church Extension
The principal activity of this committee is the Ten Dollar Club whose
members contribute ten dollars on call, not to exceed three calls per year.
Proceeds from these calls, formerly used exclusively to assist newly
established congregations, now serve a three-fold purpose: to assist new
congregations, to assist older churches who have encountered serious
financial difficulties, and to assist overseas mission churches.
During the 1975-76 Conference year the following distributions were
made of proceeds from the three Ten Dollar Club Calls:
Summer 1975: Parkwood, Durham $19,600.00
Winter 1975: (Overseas Call) , Iquiqui, Chile 13,100.00
Spring 1976: M Call, Walker-Memorial, Goldsboro 7,500.00
Spring 1976: \£ Call, Trinity, Marshallberg 8,000.00
Total distributed $28,600.00
In promoting church extension work, the committee's goal for Ten
Dollar Club memberships equal to one percent of the Conference mem-
bership appears to be realistic. During the year some 200 new Ten Dollar
Club members were added, bringing the current total to 1,900. One per-
cent of the present Conference membership (211,000) would be 2,110.
Other goals and activities of the committee are :
All ministers in the North Carolina Conference are urged to
become Ten Dollar Club members.
Observance of Church Extension Sunday, February 15, 1976.
Promotion of Ten Dollar Club membership at the various district
meetings and Conferences and in local churches.
William W. Austin, Chairperson
Division of Missions, Inc.— 1975-1976
Two proposed sites for new congregations were considered and sub-
sequently rejected (Pinehurst and Kinston) .
Over a half million dollars loaned to churches for property purchases
and building or improvement programs. Two new loans were processed
through the Board of Global Ministries in New York.
Five Churches received aid through the Ten Dollar Club.
Twenty-two churches received grants from Division of Missions in
amounts ranging from $500 to $10,000. Two of these grants were for par-
sonages.
Loan funds total approximately $1 ,400,000.00.
There are about 1 ,900 members of the Ten Dollar Club.
The executive director consulted with and/or visited about fifty dif-
ferent churches regarding plans to build, review building plans, prepare
financial plans, inspect progress in building and consecrate or dedicate
buildings.
The executive director works in cooperation with the local church
building committee; the office of the Rural Church of The Duke En-
dowment; the J.M. Ormond Center for Research, Planning and Develop-
314
ment; District Boards of Church Locations, and Building and commercial
lending agencies and attorneys.

Committee on Parish Travel
In adopting the Report of the Committee to Study the Cost of Parish Travel,
the 1975 Annual Conference charged the Bishop with the responsibility of
appointing a standing Committee to conduct an on-going review and study of
travel expense requirements within the Conference. This Committee, comprised
of three at-large ministers and three lay persons, was duly appointed by the
Bishop and makes the following report to the 1976 Annual Conference.
Implementation of Parish Travel Expense Program
The basic suppositions on which the 1975 Annual Conference acted in
adopting the recommendations of the Committee to study the Cost of
Parish Travel to implement the Parish Travel Expense Program were :
1. Such a program would result in a more uniform, adequate and easily
understood basis for reimbursing of pastors' travel expenses by the local
churches.
2. Such a program would result in a better understanding on the part of
the local church of the financial burden placed on the Pastor by inade-
quate or no reimbursement for travel expenses and enable the local
church to assume the responsibility for the travel necessary to carry out
its programs.
3. Care should be taken to make certain that the program does not result
in inequalities in making appointments at Annual Conference.
4. Each charge should be urged to provide a travel expense item in its
budget beginning with the 1976 fiscal year with recognition that some
charges would require a reasonable phase-in period for reaching the
full amount called for by the recommended budgeting formula of 12
cents per mile for the first 15,000 miles and 9 cents per mile for the
excess.
After consultation with the Bishop, members of the Cabinet and various
pastors within the Conference, and based on its work in connection with
the actual implementation of the program, the Committee on Parish
Travel is pleased to report that the program was well received within the
Conference and that a genuine effort was made on the part of the local
charges to adhere to the basic goals of the program.
Recognizing that implementing the Travel Expense Program has placed
added work on the Bishop and the District Superintendents, the Commit-
tee would like to especially thank the Bishop and members of the Cabinet
for their tireless efforts in working closely with the pastors and the local
charges in the effective implementation of the program.
Inasmuch as the program is in its first year of operation and thus is in
the early stages of development, the Committee does not feel that any
major modifications are in order at this time. The Committee does, how-
ever, recognize the need to provide for a clarification of two areas of con-
315
cern and, there, makes the following recommendations to the 1976 Annual
Conference :
1. That the Conference should continue to use the pastors' combined
salary, utilities and travel allowance (with travel allowance listed sepa-
rately) as the basis for making appointments. This will assure equitable
treatment of pastors appointed to charges which have not, as of the
date of appointment, provided for the full budget requirements for
parish travel expenses.
2. That each pastor report to the Annual Charge Conference the number
of parish miles driven between January 1, 1976 and the date of the
Annual Conference. Using the average monthly miles from the Pastor's
report, the Charge will then project the travel for the remaining months
between the Annual Charge Conference and December 31, 1976 so that
the total miles thus computed become the travel requirements for the
Charge for the 1977 fiscal year.
Pastors being moved to new appointments will submit their parish travel
mileage driven through May 31 to their District Superintendent. A form
will be provided for this purpose.
Committee on Parsonage Standards
The 1972 Annual Conference authorized the Bishop to appoint a Com-
mittee on Parsonage Standards which was to be composed of two ministers,
two ministers' wives, two laymen and two lay women. I have served as
Chairman of that Committee for the past four years and wish to summarize
our work for the quadrennium, assuming that we have now done the job
for which we were appointed, namely:
1. To conduct a survey of Attitudes Toward The Parsonage: In co-
operation with Dr. Robert Wilson of the J.M. Ormand Center for Re-
search, a questionaire was designed and distributed to three groups of
persons, pastors of local churches, pastors' wives, and chairmen of the
Pastor-Parish Relations Committees. The results of that survey were in-
corporated in a booklet, a limited number of which are still available.
2. To revise a Guide for Locating, Building, Furnishing, and Maintain-
ing Parsonages, This was done, and the completed form adopted by the
1974 annual conference, printed in quantities and has been available for
local churches, as well as having been mailed to three persons in each
charge.
We come to the end of the quadrennium with several observations from
your conference committee. First, there is a great deal of interest among
lay people to provide attractive, comfortable homes for their ministers.
Numerous requests have come for our Guide, or for suggestions by way of
the telephone. We have tried to fill these requests. Ten new parsonages
have been built in our conference during this past year and plans are now
underway for the construction of seven additional parsonages. Six homes
were dedicated. Thirty-eight charges have done extensive renovating and
redecorating of their parsonages. For all of this, your committee and the
occupants of the parsonages are grateful.
Second, there is still a need to improve some of our parsonages. We
316
estimate that there are 22-25 parsonages that need a great deal of attention
in order to meet even minimum standards. Hopefully, these charges will
be able to remedy this situation in a short time. And, there is still a need
for parsonage families to be good stewards of their homes, taking the best
possible care of their homes and frunishings and leaving them clean and in
good order when we move on.
Bishop Blackburn, I thank you for the opportunity to serve on this com-
mittee and will make our records available through the Program Council
Director's office.
Mrs. James A. Auman, Chairperson
Status and Role of Women
I am not using the expression in a trite manner when I say "It is a priv-
ilege" to give this report from the Commission on the Status and Role
of Women in the North Carolina Conference. This group of men and
women went immediately to work with a deep sense of purpose and with
great vitality.
At our first meeting we decided that as a basis for our work we needed to
know the leadership roles women have in our conference boards and agen-
cies. Out of nineteen replies to cards sent out we found that in a total
membership of 514, 72 were women, just about one out of 7, which is lower
than the national average in United Methodist churches. Three women
were serving as chairpersons. Of the 72 women members most were serving
in lines of work in which women have traditionally served, missions,
church and society, youth ministries and children's ministries. Eight
agencies had no women members. These were the Division of Ministry, the
committees on Interpretations, Communications, and Annual Conference
Entertainment, the Boards of Pension and Trustees and the Commissions
on Church Enlistment and Equitable Salaries.
At the Charge Conferences next fall we will ask each church to submit a
list of capable women with skill or aptitude each has to offer, who would
be willing to serve on a district or conference agency. We believe this list
will be of value to those responsible for the composition of the various
groups.
April and May of this year, workshops on the Status and Role of Women
were held in six districts. By our vote Tuesday, workshops in the other six
districts will be held next spring.
Considering that our work is new, we thought the attendance at the
workshops was good and the response from those attending was very
positive — tremendous! The program was varied and stimulating. I know
those men and women attending left with many a preconceived idea jolted
out of their thinking and with an enlightened idea of what women, both
lay and ordained, can mean to our conference ; what they do mean.
We are gratified that three lay women were elected to General Confer-
ence. Four years ago we elected 2 — up until that time we had elected one
to each general conference — so I believe we are on our way to equality in
future delegations. In four years when the conference will again elect
delegates, we will have several ordained women eligible for election. Two
317
women have been elected as delegates to the Jurisdictional Conference.
Our Commission has great confidence in the integrity of the men and
women in our conference. We have faith that together we shall continue
to elevate the Status and Role of United Methodist Women in our Con-
ference.
Last January two of our ordained women, Nancy Best, and Judy For-
inger, attended, in Nashville, Tennessee, a National Consultation of
Ordained Women in the United Meethodist Church. Nancy Best has been
given several additional minutes to tell us about this meeting.

Conference Board of Trustees
The annual meeting of the Board of Trustees was held at 12:30 p.m.,
June 9, 1976, at Methodist College, during the Annual conference Session.
The financial statements for the calendar year 1975 were presented by
the Conference Treasurer. The Trustees Fund, Methodist Building Ac-
count, Staff Parsonage and Episcopal Residence Accounts have been
audited and will be included in Section VI of the 1976 JOURNAL.
The Methodist Building continues to be fully leased and the Trustees
through the Treasurer- Business Administrator have endeavored to super-
vise and properly maintain this building and all other conference property
entrusted to our care.
In December of 1975, we were able to consumate a sale for the Gum
Branch Church property which was placed in our hands by the 1975
session of the Annual Conference. The property was sold to the Gum Bran-
ch Community church for the sum of $12,500. Payment is being made to
us at the rate of $200 per month for principal and interest.
Within the past three days we have been informed by Mr. John Espie of
our General council on finance and Administration that the Fire Insurance
Rating Bureau of North Carolina has agreed that the Atlantic Mutual In-
surance Company may use the average rates as developed by Atlantic
Mutual for church programs all across the country. This is encouraging
and begins to open the door for churches in North Carolina to participate
in the General Church fire insurance program. Pastors will receive further
communications from the Conference Treasurer concerning this progress.
Plans are underway to construct a small storage-utility building at the
Methodist Building in Raleigh.
The Board of Trustees has approved through legal council the request
from Raleigh Towne corporation to change from a corporation to a part-
nership.

United Methodist Women
1976 - the year of the Centennial of the organized group of women
within the church... the Methodist Church in North Carolina. This group
had begun, 100 years ago, as the Women's Missionary Society but has had
different names as the years went by. Since 1972 the name has been -
United Methodist Women of the North Carolina Conference of the United
Methodist Church!
Whatever the name, the priority of the organized group of women in the
Methodist Church has been MISSION. In 1876, the women organized to
help recruit and support foreign and home missionaries, were concerned
and involved in Christian education of the children and youth, placed
great emphasis on study, and later showed interest in peace and
brotherhood. In 1975 the theme of the United Methodist Women in the
North Carolina Conference was "To Be Alive" with the objective being
"To increase our understanding of what it means to be in Mission today".
In 1976, the theme "Unity in Community" is undergirded with the ob-
jective "To Build a Community of Informed Women who find freedom in
Christ and develop responsible relationships". It is important to realize
that "U" is the center of Community and the beginning of Unity!
1 975 - Highlights of the year :
A Conference Newsletter, "KEDE", became a reality with mailings
going to all local presidents, district and conference officers.
Financial Interpretation Workshops were continued as the Conference
Treasurer and Associate Treasurer planned and participated with Districts
to carry the story of "Where The Mission Dollar Goes" to the local woman.
A pilot project, Program Packets of 10 short programs written by
women in the N.C. Conference has proved to be very exciting. This
evolved through the Leader Development Chairperson because of the
request and need for programs for small Units or Subgroups. Over 500 of
these packets have been ordered by groups within the conference and plans
are now under way for another Packet to be available this fall.
Another way of Mission Involvement is the opportunity to share with
others, the exposure to new ideas and studies, and the hearing of the story
told by those of different experiences! (Ten conference officers attended
the South Atlantic Regional School of Mission last June, special Emphasis
on the Women's Division was a segment of the Conference Leadership
School last August, five women (one conference officer, four district of-
ficers and Native American resource person) attended the National
Seminar in Norman, Oklahoma.) These were some of the ways United
Methodist Women became involved.
The third Annual Meeting was held at First United Methodist in Rocky
Mount October 3-4. Mrs. J. Boyd Tyrrell as keynote speaker chared the
challenge of what it means "To Be Alive in Mission". Another highlight
was the "Portraits of Women of the Bible" as presented by Mrs. Jack Miles,
United Methodist Woman from Swansboro.
A Planning Session for the in- coming and out -going conference officers
in November. This helped develop the feeling of the Team Relationship,
and gave the opportunity to begin the planning to meet the Needs of '76.
319
The local United Methodist Woman gives of her money as well as her
talents and her time. In 1975, $212,977.38 was sent for the Pledge to
Missions to the Women's Division. This exceeded the Pledge of $195,000
by $17,977.38. The Love Offering for Annual Meeting was designated for
a Remedial Reading Lab at the Methodist Home for Children and
$9,543.66 was received. In addition the Conference, Districts, and Local
Units support our N.C. Projects - Wesley Foundation at East Carolina
University, Harnett County Church & Community Project, Walnut
Terrace Child Care Development Center, and Robeson County Church
and community Center. In addition money of United Methodist Women
support many other interests such as scholarships for undergraduates and
graduate students, sending a Youth to the Youth in Missions Conference at
Lakejunaluska, and World Hunger.
Do you think that the pioneers in Mission in 1876 would have been over-
whelmed by the scope of the N.C. Conference United Methodist Women in
1975? Now, 1976 is well under way.
1976 - Highlights of first five months:
The five new Conference Officers attended a Training Session in Cin-
cinnati the first week-end in January. With the projection received there
and the background of the planning session of the Conference Team in
November, the Expanded Conference Executive Committee met in early
January to choose the goals and ways to implement them :
Goals:
1. To Deepen spiritual Relationships
2. Build An Informed Community
3. Develop Effective Means of Communication
4. Strengthen Ecumenical Involvement
5. Be sensitive to Feelings and Needs of ALL Women
"DO-IT" Day (District Officers In Training) was held at Centenary
UMC in Smithfield in February. This was planned to help the District
Teams to discover ways to meet the needs of the Local Units of United
Methodist Women.
In April, over 50 United Methodist Women attended the S.E. Jurisdic-
tion Meeting in Louisville, Kentucky. Mrs. Charles Dorsett and Mrs. Tib-
bie Roberts, two of the Nominees elected at Annual Meeting last October,
were elected as a Nominee from the Jurisdiction. Twenty-two women were
elected as Nominees, but eleven of these will be chosen to serve on the
Women's Division at the Jurisdictional Meeting at Lakejunaluska in July.
Mrs. N.L. Locklear of Pembroke was elected as one of the seven officers of
the S.E. Juirisdiction Core Planning Group for the next Quadrennium.
On May 18-19, the Conference Retreat for United Methodist Women
was led by Mrs. Jack Miles. From around the Conference, 170 women
came for an exploration of their commitment as God's servants, rev. W.P.
Lowdermilk served Communion to each individual at the close of the
Retreat and each one left with a most meaningful feeling of this symbolic
expression of our faith.
Glimpses of the remainder of 1976 - Short Term Task Groups of our
Black and Native American UMW, searching and sharing on becoming a
more inclusive church; "Under 40" Experience planned by Young Women
320
for Young Women; Workshop for Local UMW during Conference
Leadership School; Annual Meeting, Oct. 1&2, St. Luke UMC Sanford
N.C.
Ecumenical concerns include participation in World Federation of
Methodist Women. A meeting of this group in September 1975, was a
beginning of a state-wide involvement. Mrs. D.K. Fry was elected secretary
and Mrs. T. Marvin vick, Jr. is serving on the nominating committee. Also,
Church women United is another way that United Methodist Women
might be involved with women of other denominations. An increase in the
Conference Pledge to Missions for UMW in 1976 to the Women's Division,
is maintining our commitment "To Be IN MISSION"!
In 1876, in 1976, and in 2076 — the organized group of women in the
United Methodist Church will BE IN MISSION -God's Mission in His
World!

REPORT OF COMMITTEE ON CHRISTIAN EDUCATORS
The Committee on Christian Educators of the Division of Education
being interested in establishing lines of communication between the
educator, lay persons, and pastors relative to the professional needs of the
educator has surveyed the certified educators in the North Carolina An-
nual Conference to establish what their needs are. In the fall of 1976, 23
questionnaires were mailed, 14 were returned for a response of 60% . From
the study, the following facts were gleaned :
(1) Average salary for 1976 — full time $8,536.00 — all expenses in-
cluded.
(2) Average salary for 1975 — part time $4,600.00 — all expenses in-
cluded.
(3) 2 weeks vacation over all.
(4) V4 churches provide help in (a) continuing education, (b) in-
surance—life and health, (c) pensions.
(5) The size of the church and the educational background of the
Educator had no bearing on salary paid.
(6) The size of the church did not seem to determine the hiring of a part-
or full time educator.
Believing that — "Professional Christian Educators are products and
members of the culture in which they work and therefore are part of a
value system. A current value operating in the U.S. is the 'success' image.
It is judged by a number of factors, but the important one is that of salary.
The person who earns more is considered more successful. This may not be
the Christian ideal, but it's one of the operational values in our culture."
(Salary and Benefit Survey of Professional Christian Educators in the
United Methodist Church — A research project of the Christian
Educators Fellowship, The United Methodist Church.)
Since finances do contribute to one's estimation of his or her personal
worth and helps form the base from which his or her creativity and initia-
tive come, the committee recommends the following guidelines to be eval
uated by the local church :
(1) It is recommended that the minimum BASE salary for Christian
Educators — excluding expense funds — be :
Director of Christian Education — Master's Degree — member United
Methodist Church — certified by the Annual Conference as Lay
Worker: $8,500.00
Associate of Christian Education — B. A. Degree — Course of study,
member United Methodist Church — certified by the Annual Con-
ference as Lay Worker : $7,700.00
Educational Assistant — member United Methodist Church — work-
ing toward Certification: $6,500.00
(2) It is recommended that all educational workers receive (a)
reasonable annual salary increases, (b) travel allowance — minimum
338
of $300, and (c) continuing education allowance — minimum of
$300 with at least two weeks annual leave to study. Additional at-
tention must be given for housing and insurance.
(3) It is recommended that a housing allowance be provided.
(4) It is recommended that all educators be included in the Lay Em-
ployee Pension Plan.
(5) It is recommended that educators be included in the Conference life
and health insurance program and that the church pay the
premiums.
(6) Work schedule-recommendations:
(a) No less than 2 weeks vacation
(b) One full weekend off per quarter
(c) One and V£ days off per week
(d) 12 days of sick pay per year
(7) That the church should recognize the educator's responsibility to the
District, Conference, and community. It is suggested that at least 2
weeks be given for responsibilities to the Conference and District
levels.
To the Conference :
(1) It is recommended that the Committee on Continuing Education of
the Division of Ministry consider granting scholarship aid to
professional Christian Educators for continuing education events.

THE COMMISSION ON EQUITABLE SALARIES
Recommendations for 1977
I. The Schedule of Minimum Salaries through the Commission on
Equitable Salaries for 1977 is as follows:
A. Regular recommendations:
Full-Time Conference and Associate Conference Members
One or more dependent children $9200
Married 9000
Single 8800
Full-Time Lay Pastors
One or more dependent children 8600
Married 840o
single 8200
Student
One or more dependent children 7200
Married 7000
Single 6800
B. Special Recommendations:
1. A charge may provide up to $800 for pastoral travel
without its affecting equitable salary provisions.
2. Retired Supply Pastors : $4500 (including utilities) .
3. Part-time Supplies: Ministers of any status who are serv-
ing part-time will receive income from Equitable Salary
funds, if any, on a basis negotiated with the church, the
pastor, the District Superintendent, and the Equitable
Salary Commission.
II. Principles Governing the Use of Equitable Salary Funds
The Pastor's salary is the responsibility of the charge; therefore, the
charges should so group themselves as to assume full pastoral sup-
port. The Commission urges each charge receiving Equitable Salary
funds, its minister, and District Superintendents to administer the af-
fairs of the charge to the end that it may move as rapidly as possible
toward full financial support. To enable the conference, the com-
mission and the superintendents to carry on their cooperative efforts
in understanding, harmony, and for the greatest good for all con-
cerned, the following principles and procedures are set forth:
1 . The family or marital status of the pastor at the time of assign-
ment to the charge and as of January 1 shall govern the amount
paid the minister.
2. In considering the salary for the charge, all income, including
salary, utilities, and bonuses are included as salary in deter-
349
mining appropriations from Equitable Salaries Commission.
3. It is expected that charges will provide two-thirds of the total
salary with the Equitable Salaries Commission givng only one-
third, excepting newly-established congregations. Charges
must be arranged so that no more than one-third of the total
salary be supplemented from Equitable Salary funds. Charges
asking for more than one- third supplement must make an ad-
ditional application, indicating the reasons for being given
special consideration.
4. When division of charges is desired, Equitable Salary funds will
be used only upon recommendation of the Bishop, or the
"Bishop's Task Force on the Division of Circuits" and Cabinet
approval.
5. In the Division of Circuits in which one church seeks to become
a station, it is recommended that such church assume all salary
obligations and its proportionate share of single- figure asking.
a. It is recommended that the remainder of the division pay
two-thirds of pastoral support, and its share of single-
figure asking.
b. The Commission on Equitable Salaries further recom-
mends that each charge which has received, or shall
hereafter receive, Equitable Salary aid, shall reduce this
aid by 10 percent each year until the charge has accepted
full self-support. The District Superintendents are to in-
form all charges receiving aid or expecting to receive aid
in the future of this regulation. This requirement must be
kept in mind in preparing for any requests.
c. When there is a division of a cnarge forming one or more
student appointments, the charge must pay two-thirds
of said salary.
6. Any Equitable Salary supplement will be terminated immedi-
ately upon a full-time pastor's taking other employment or
not continuing full-time pastoral employment. Such a pastor
may be reinstated at any time upon returning to full-time
ministerial status. Exceptions to this rule may be permitted
by approval of the Executive Committee of the Commission
on Equitable Salaries on recommendation of the DS of the
pastor who is seeking for emergency reasons employment
outside that of his church ministry.
III. In order to improve the effective utilization of Conference ministerial
manpower,
And in recognition of the fact that the size of the membership of a
charge together with its quality of leadership are significant factors
both in charge salaries and the quality of a church's total witness :
The Commission on Equitable Salaries encourages and aids those
churches which seek, to improve their total programs through: (1)
establishing cooperative programs which are designed to result in an
increase in the number of churches and members in a charge; (2)
350
increasing the level of inter-congregational cooperation; or (3)
merging congregations.
In order to implement this policy, the Equitable Salary Commission
may utilize a maximum of seven percent of its total allocations to
supplement salaries beyond the established minimum salary. In
funding programs for this purpose the following procedures will be
followed :
1 . The District Superintendent of the charge will submit a
proposal to the Commission, which proposal (for initial
requests) shall include:
A. The names, locations, and memberships of each church
involved.
B. Evidence of the total charge's involvement, approval, and
participation in the program.
C. Specific year-by-year goals and objectives to be reached
in the charges' witness as a result of the program.
D. Specific job descriptions for each position if the proposal
includes differentiated staffing.
E. Salary budgets.
F. Annual goals shall include provisions for the charges'
assuming the total salary obligations within a specifically

INSURANCE COMMITTEE REPORT
Report No. 1
The Conference Insurance Committee met on August 12, 1975, to render
its annual analysis and recommendations as presented by H. Gray Hut-
chison and Associates, Inc., Raleigh; consultants to the Conference In-
surance Committee.
The Conference Insurance Committee has agreed to the present plan,
adopted at the last session of the Annual Conference, of continuing the
renewal date for the Group Life and Group Health Insurance Programs
should remain on the same basis as the fiscal year of the Annual Con-
ference. This means that the renewal dates are January 1 of each year.
This further eliminates the problem of mid-year cost adjustment. It is
proposed that the Insurance Committee continue to retain the full
authority to review and implement any proposed rate adjustments and/or
benefits improvements to become effective January 1, 1977. Any increase
in cost is to be pro-rated between the church and the minister on the same
basis as is now in effect.
Report No. 2
The Conference Insurance Committee met on February 12, 1976, and con-
sidered the role of those persons serving charges who were not so appointed
at the session of the Annual Conference. We recommend that Health In-
surance and Life Insurance through the Conference groups should be
made available to ministers who:
1 . Are licensed to preach and serving full-time or as a sutdent lay pastor
under appointment in :
A. One of the churches or charges of the North Carolina Con-
ference.
B. One of the institutions or agencies of this Conference receiving
financial support from the Conference.
C. An institution or agency established to provide a ministry or
service especially for this Conference; provided, that such in-
360
stitution or agency does not have a health or life insurance
program in which the minister is eligible to enroll.
All other ministers of this Conference whose credentials beyond that
of a licensed preacher and are serving full-time under Episcopal Ap-
pointment in one of the areas as described in A, B, C, above.
Report No. 3
Study of Disability Income Program
The 1975 session of the North Carolina Conference passed a
resolution calling for the Insurance Committee to study the
feasibility of establishing a "Disability Income Program" for
ministers of the Conference. An expression of concern was voiced
from the floor of the Conference that ministers do not have adequate
protection against the loss of income resulting from total disability
and in view of the high cost of individual disability income insurance
policies, it was suggested that the North Carolina Conference in-
vestigate sponsorship of a lower cost group type disability income
plan.
Acting on the resolution, the Insurance Committee requested the In-
surance Consultants, Hutchison & Associates, Inc., to make an in-
depth study of available approaches to providing disability income
benefits and to present to the Committee its recommendation for an
overall disability income plan that would provide an adequate level
of protection in the event of total disability.
A special meeting of the Insurance Committee was held on February
12, 1976 to receive and consider the recommendations of the Con-
sultants and based on the results of this meeting, the Insurance Com-
mittee makes the following report :
Basis For Study
As a basis of its study of the status of disability income benefits
available to ministers, the Insurance Committee, with the assistance
of the Consultants :
Reviewed the scope of disability income benefits currently available
to ministers through the Social Security Program, the Emergency
Aid Fund and the Reserve Pension Plan. Also considered in the
review were benefits available under special circumstances, such as
Workmen's Compensation for occupational related disabilities and
Veteran's Disability benefits for ministers eligible for such benefits.
Considered the relationship of available current disability income
benefits to current salary levels to determine the adequacy of present
benefits as a percentage of salary.
Considered the underwriting and administrative requirements of
various disability income insurance methods including Group Long
Term Disability Insurance and Group Franchise (individual policy)
contracts.
361
4. Coordinated with members of the Board of Pensions and the Joint
Committee on Disability to determine the basis on which these com-
mittees administer the disability income benefits that are currently
available from the Reserve Pension Fund and the Emergency Aid
Fund.
Findings and Observations
As a result of the above study, the Insurance Committee has
developed the following findings and observations :
1. By virtue of (a) continued increases in the level of disability income
benefits provided by the Federal Social Security Act, (b) the exist-
ence of Emergency Aid Fund benefits of up to $360 per month for a
period of up to 12 months, and (c) recent action taken by the Board
of Pensions to provide a monthly disability income benefit up to
33J/3% of Conference average salary for ministers on disability
leave of absence, there already exists within the North Carolina
Conference a broad and generally adequate program of disability
incomme benefits for the vast majority of ministers.
For example, a minister, age 40, earning $10,000 per year ($833 per
month) would be entitled to approximately $410 per month in
Primary Social Security disability benefits starting with the fifth
month of total disability. The Reserve Pension Fund would provide a
monthly benefit of $309 (33 J/3% of monthly Conference average
salary of $926) beginning at such date as the minister is approved for
disability leave. Total monthly benefits from Social Security and the
Reserve Pension Fund in this example would equal 86.3% of the
minister's monthly gross salary. Since these benefits would not be
taxable to the minister (no tax on Social Security or on the first $100
per week of disability benefits paid from the Reserve Pension Fund) ,
the total disability income benefit would exceed 100% of net take-
home pay, assuming the minister is in a 15% or higher tax bracket.
Whereas these benefits would not generally be provided for casual or
short term disabilities, the Emergency Aid Fund Benefits are
available for such casual and short term disabilities subject to deter-
mination of eligibility by the Joint Committee on Disability.
2. Because of the level of disability income benefits already provided by
the Conference, the implementation of a Conference-wide Group
Long Term Disability Insurance Plan would not benefit a vast
majority of ministers, since the insurance carrier integrates current
Conference and/or governmental disability benefits with the benefits
of the disability insurance plan which would result in a reasonable
monthly disability insurance benefit being available only to those
ministers who earn in excess of approximately $16,000 per year.
Whereas group franchise policies do not integrate with other Con-
ference and/or governmental disability income benefits, the cost and
administrative requirements of these policies, when considered in
light of the number of ministers who need supplemental long term
disability income protection, do not make this approach feasible for
362
Conference-wide sponsorship.
3. Whereas there are a small number of ministers who have elected not
to participate in the Federal Social Security Program, and whereas
there are a relatively small number of ministers whose annual salary
is such that existing benefits would not provide a monthly disability
income benefit equal to or exceeding 60% of gross salary, which is
generally considered as an adequate level of protection, the In-
surance Committee feels that these are individual considerations
requiring individual attention on the part of the minister rather than
consideration and action by the Conference.
Recommendations
Based on its study and on the foregoing findings and observations, the In-
surance Committee recommends to the Annual Conference :
1. That in view of the level of disability income benefits currently
provided by the Conference and by existing governmental plans and
in view of the relatively small number of ministers that would benefit
from a Conference-wide disability insurance plan, no action be taken
by the Conference to establish a disability insurance plan at this
time.
2. That each minister who is concerned about or has a special need for
disability income benefits, as a supplement to benefits currently
provided by the Conference and/or governmental programs, seek in-
dividual professional advice from a qualified insurance or financial
counselor to determine the alternatives that are available for meeting
the individual concern or need.

THE COMMITTEE ON THE LAY WORKER
"The Committee on the Lay Worker recommends to the Annual Con-
ference that the minimum salary standards for Lay Workers be at least
equal to standards set by the state for teachers with comparable degrees and
experience. We further move that at the Annual Charge Conference the
District Superintendent ask the local Pastor- Parrish Relations Committee
about its plans to bring salary support for the Lay Worker up to these
minimum standards."

The Committee on the Lay Worker calls the attention of the Annual Con-
ference and especially the attention of local churches employing Lay
Workers to Par. 507.1: "The employing agency shall include the Lay
Worker in the retirement plan of the Lay Employee Pension Fund (Par.
1377.12) or other such appropriate plan as provided by the Board of Pen-
sions or other boards or agencies of the United Methodist Church." For the
sake of uniformity, we recommend that the pension plan for Lay Workers in
the North Carolina Conference be based upon an annual contribution of
9% of the employee's salary — 6% to be paid by the employing agency and
3% by the employee (or some combination of percentages to add up to
9%).
We encourage local churches employing Lay Workers to pay the
premiums for Blue Cross-Blue Shield Insurance plan, and to participate, in
their behalf, in the Conference program of Group Life Insurance.
The Committee on the Lay Worker also calls upon all local churches
within her bounds to consider a pension program, as well as hospitalization
364
and life insurance, for ALL LAY EMPLOYEES — not only those who
qualify as Lay Worker.
The North Carolina Conference Committee on the Lay Worker re-
commends to the Annual Conference that the minimum salary standards
for Lay Workers be at least equal to standards set by the state for teach-
ers with comparable degrees and experience. We further move that at
the Annual Charge Conference the District Superintendent ask the local
Pastor-Parrish Relations Committee about its plans to bring salary sup-
port for the Lay Worker up to these minimum standards.

HOUSING EXCLUSION ALLOWANCE
REPORT II
INTERNAL REVENUE SERVICE DOCUMENT NO. 5045 (10-67)
DECLARES
"Rental Value of Home Furnished a Clergyman, and cost of utilities
paid for him, as pan of his compensation for carrying out his du6es as
clergyman, are not income to him. if he is duly ordained, licensed, or com-
missioned."
A Rental Allowance to Clergyman, paid as part of his compensation, is
not income to the extent he used it, in the year received, to provide a
home, or pay utilities for a home furnished him. However, the church, or
organization which employs him must have officially designated the
payment as a rental allowance before the payment was made."
"The above rules are also applicable to retired clergymen where a rent-
free home or rental allowance is furnished him in recognition of past ser-
vices in carrying out his duties as a clergyman."
A REVISED RULING. 63. 156, 163 2 CB 79 STATES:
..the rental value of the home furnished to a retired minister as part of
his compensation for services is excludable from his gross income under
Section 107 ( 1 ) of the Code. Also, the rental allowance paid to him as part
of his compensation for past services is excludable under Section 107 (2) of
the Code, to the extent used by him for expenses directly related to
providing a home." (See Code Sec. 107, Reg. 1.107.1 1103.01)
Therefore the following resolution is presented to the North Carolina
Conference of the United Methodist Church, meeting in Fayetteville,
North Carolina :
Whereas, The United Methodist Church has a tradition of providing
housing (a parsonage) for its ministers, or in instances where no parsonage
is owned by the charge, giving the minister a housing allowance ;
Whereas, Retired Ministers of the North Carolina Conference are en-
titled to the same privileges as those in the Effective Relationship: and
Whereas, the most practical method of providing housing for the
Retired Ministers is by means of rental allowance;
Therefore Be It Resolved, that the amount of $3,000.00 per year be set
as a fair and reasonable rental allowance for each Retired Minister of this
annual conference; that the first $3,000.00 paid to a Retired Minister each
year by The Board of Pensions of The North Carolina Conference of the
United Methodist Church and $2,100.00 of this is designated as the
payment of this Housing Allowance and $900.00 for Utility Allowance.
The Housing Allowance is specifically designated as compensation to the
minister for the cost of renting or providing housing for himself and his
family and those costs related thereto, pursuant to the Code as stated in
Document 5045 (10 67).
The Board of Pensions emphasizes that the Retired Minister who uses
this Housing Allowance must be able to furnish proof that he made ex-
penditures in the amounts claimed. If the full $2600.00 cannot be sub-
stantiated as expenditures, then claim should be made only for those
amounts which can be verified.
382
We also remind the minister who uses this allowance, that the amount
he claims as a Housing Allowance exclusion must be included as Income in
reporting his Social Security. It is possible that reduced Social Security
benefits would offset any claims for the Housing Allowance exclusion.
Please consult your Social Security Advisor about this matter.
Further, the Board of Pensions absolves itself of any responsibility in the
event the Internal Revenue Service disallows any housing allowance
claimed.
MINISTERS RETIREMENT FUND
CONSTITUTION AMENDMENTS
REPORT III
To provide a more consistent and equitable basis for administering the
Ministers' Retirement Fund we recommend the following revisions in the
Constitution (see page 326 of the 1975JOURNAL) :
Assessments: The first paragraph now reads as follows: "Each charge in
the conference shall be required to pay into the Ministers' Retirement
Fund annually an amount equal to 1 % of the conference average salary as
determined by The General Board of Pensions for each minister under
episcopal appointment to that charge."
We recommend this paragraph be revised to read as follows: "For the
benefit of this fund there shall be placed in the conference budget annually
an amount equal to one per cent (1%) of the total salaries and utilities paid
to all pastors and associates of the conference based upon the Conference
Journal figures for the year preceding the year in which the budget request
is made to the Annual Conference. This amount will be apportioned to the
charges on the same basis as all other conference budget items.
We further recommend that in the second paragraph the word travel be
deleted from the sources of income upon which the ministers' one percent
(1%) payment to the fund is based and that this revision become effective
with the payments to be made by the ministers based upon their
renumeration for the calendar year 1976.
We recommend this paragraph be revised to read as follows: "Each
minister shall pay into the fund one percent (1%) of all money excluding
travel he or she receives each year from the charge or charges he or she is
serving, and/or conference sources (this includes salary, utility allowances,
minimum salary fund payments, Duke Endowment funds, and missionary
sources. ) "

REPORT OF THE METHODIST BOARD OF PUBLICATION, INC.
I. General Statement
For many years the Methodist Board of Publication, Inc., has
recognized that its main responsibility has been the publication of the
North Carolina Christian Advocate. For most of those years, it operated a
printing concern in connection with its publishing responsibility. The lat-
ter operation was brought to an end in December, 1974, when the print
shop was leased to Emporium Printing and Packaging Co. After almost
two years of operation, Emporium decided to terminate this phase of its
operation. As a result of this step, your Board was presented with the op-
portunity to sell all of its printing equipment at the fair market value of
$50,000. The sale, which was consummated in Novemeber, 1975, was to
Media, Inc., of Greensboro.
The large, two-story Advocate building at 429 W. Friendly Ave. in
Greensboro has been vacated and is being offered for sale. The editorial
offices of the North Carolina Christian Advocate have been moved to the
campus of Greensboro College, where a suite of three rooms has been
made available by that institution.
Circulation of the North Carolina Christian Advocate has remained at
approximately 15,000 to 16,000 subscriptions during the past year.
Your Board is aware of the fact that the North Carolina Christian Ad-
vocate is a service arm of the church. As a significant communications
medium, its role is crucial to the welfare of our people. The failure to share
in the service which it offers should be viewed with concern, if not alarm.
In promotion of circulation among our churches, your Board and the
limited staff of the Advocate must lean heavily upon the leadership of
pastors and local church administrative leaders. We call upon the pastors
and the lay leadership of our two conferences to give renewed vigor in
promotion of the subscription campaign proposed in our list of recom-
mendations.
We take note of the fact that Dr. James C. Stokes, who has completed a
decade as editor-business manager, is retiring as of June, 1976. At our
Board meeting in November, 1975, when this information was announced,
your Board expressed to him its commendation for his services and
achievements.
Our resolution included the following: "We commend Dr. Stokes for his
faithful and dependable leadership, for his courageous and prophetic
editorials, and for the many advances in Christian journalism evidenced in
the issues of the Advocate." We are sure that this annual conference joins
with the Board in sharing the sentiments expressed at our November
meeting.
It gives us pleasure to announce that the Rev. C. Alison Simonton of the
North Carolina Conference will assume the editorship, upon appointment
to the post by Biship Robert M. Blackburn at the June session of the con-
ference. Mr. Simonton brings to the position an unusual array of gifts and
qualifications. We covet for him your enthusiastic support as he enters into
his new labors.
The North Carolina Christian Advocate, while being the official news
384
journal for the North Carolina and the Western North Carolina con
ferences, in a larger sense belongs to all of the rank and file of pastors and
church members in our great state. It has had a distinguished past, and
holds forth good promise for an even greater future. We call upon you of
this annual conference and upon all of the people whom you represent to
join with your Methodist Board of Publication and with the new editor in a
great forward movement in this publishing enterprise. Our goal in all of
this is not simply the enhancement of this distinguished publication, but
through it the glorification of Christ, our Lord, and the building up of His
Church.
We Recommend That
1 . A North Carolina Christian Advocate subscription campaign be held
annually in each local church. The dates of the campaign to be from
January 15 through February 15 for the Western North Carolina An-
nual Conference and from February 15 through March 15 for the
North Carolina Annual Conference. The purpose of the Advocate
Campaign will be to give each local church an opportunity to con-
centrate on Advocate subscriptions both new and renewal. Special
rates will be limited to the campaign time-slot except for those
received from the 1976 annual conference session until February 15,
1977, for the Western North Carolina Annual Conference and until
March 15, 1977, in the North Carolina Annual Conference when
special group rates will apply and all subscriptions received during
these times will apply against the church and district quotas. The
purpose of including the months from the 1976 annual conference
sessions until the time of the 1977 campaigns in the respective con-
ferences is to get us moving immediately on subscriptions.
2. The quota of Advocate subscriptions for each local church for the
period from the annual conference session in June 1976 through
February 15, 1977, for the Western North Carolina Annual Con-
ference and through March 15, 1977, for the North Carolina Annual
Conference be one Advocate subscription for every six members
based on each church's reported total full membership in the 1975
Journals of the respective conferences. Where the membership is not
divisible by six the next highest number will become the quota
(Example: a church with 43 members divided by six equals a quota
of 7- !/3 ; thus, the quota in this case would be 8) .
3. The quota in each district will be the sum of the quotas of its local
churches and that this district quota be carried in all regular reports
or mailings by the district's and/or conferences to the local churches
along with each district's progress made to reach its quota in the
form of subscriptions received.
4. The district superintendents of the annual conferences report by July
1 , 1976, the quotas of their churches to the proper annual conference
agency responsible for making regular mailings to the churches so
that reports on Advocate subscriptions, and each church's progress
on reaching its quota, may be regularly available to all of the
churches.
385
5. Each local church, not having already made a report, be prepared to
report to the 1976 fall Charge Conference progress made to date in
reaching its quota.
6. Each district superintendent be asked to designate a District Director
of Promotion for the North Carolina Christian Advocate in the
promotion of circulation.
7. Each local church nominate to the 1976 fall Charge Conference the
name of a person to be its Advocate Campaign chairperson and this
person be a member of the Administrative Board of that church.
8. That the subscription rate be $3.25 a year for subsriptions in Gold
Star churches with the number of subscriptions for this category
being one subscription for every 3.5 members based on each church's
reported total full membership in the 1975 Journals of the respective
conferences, $4.00 a year for those churches which meet their quota
during the campaign period, which for the new conference year only
will include the "early period" from the date of the respective annual
conferences until the close of their campaign dates as specified in
recommendation number one above, $4.25 a year for the All Ad-
ministrative Board Plan, and $4.50 a year for individual sub-
scriptions. Those churches reaching their quotas by the end of the
campaigns in 1977 in their respective conferences will receive a 10%
refund. The refund check will be sent to the church or an
organization designated by the church. No refunds will be sent to in-
dividuals. Gold Star churches may add new subscriptions for new
families for $3.25 a year throughout the year until the next year's an-
nual Advocate Campaign.
9. As soon as it is economically feasible, the Advocate be published
weekly.
10. We further recommend the following:
Whereas current appraisals of the Board's property at 429 W.
Friendly Avenue in Greensboro. N.C. set the value at less than had
previously been estimated, your Board hereby request sales price at a
lower figure than that approved by the annual conference of June,
1973; the Board being authorized to accept a sales offer in ac
cordance with its best judgment.

hospitality by Methodist College, for tasty meals, and for many special
provisions made to serve our needs, to Dr. Richard Pearce, to Bill Lowder-
milk, and to all workers of the campus we thank you for a job well done.
To Reverend Norwood Jones and the large team of workers from the
Elizabeth City District we say, you have surpassed us all as the official host
district. You have performed many practical and behind-the-scenes tasks
for the benefit of this Annual conference Session and you have done these
things in such a beautiful manner. Thank you good and faithful servants.
To John Meares, The Fayetteville Observer, and the press corps for
reporting our activities, moods, and deliberations, we say "Thank you."
To Roger F. Searles, chairman and the North Carolina Conference
Chapter of the Fellowship of United Methodist Musicians we declare our
appreciation for the sterling contribution you have made to our Con-
ference in music and song. To Roger we say, Thank You for your
dedicated work and your presence at so many of our sessions.
We here make known our gratitude to Bishop Finis A. Crutchfield for
his very throughtful sermon to the ordinands. for the Bread of Life so per-
suasively offered, for the treasure in a clay pot so penetrating as it was
pored out, we bow in gratitude to God for our Conference preacher, Doc-
tor Ernest T. Campbell. And we are thankful for the fresh jokes, especially
the one about the man who got off and on the train.
For one of the highest moments of inspiration and with our hearts still
aglow, did not our hearts burn within us at the dramatic presentation
"Susannah Wesley?" We declare our appreciation for this sterling presen-
tation by Mrs. Marion Conner.
To Sue Henry and her staff we offer Thanks for the Cokesbury Book
store display.
We express delight again this year that many of our young men and
women, and young adults participated in the sessions of the conference.
We note with gladness and appreciation the large number of laymen and
laywomen attending and participating in all sessions.
To our Conference Secretary, Jim Coile and the staff he has assembled
we give Thanks for many hours of labor in our behalf and also for the team
spirit that has been evident in your work. Well done, thou good and faith-
ful servants.
In this last year of the quadrennium we express our deep gratitude to
Mary Jeanne Blackburn for adding so much charm, graciousness, and war-
mth for three of these years and we send our love to her on this fourth year
with the words, "We missed you so much."
Bishop Robert Blackburn has been with us for a quadrennium. For his
fairness and patience as presiding officer, for his openness and availability
387
as our chief pastor, for his willingness to face tough decisions and not
sweep them under the rug, for the strong challenge of his episcopal leader-
ship, for his devoted preaching of the word, for the inspiration of his
presence among us as a Christian person, we here and now declare our
highest appreciation and give Thanks to God for our Bishop. We express
appreciation to our Bishop and the Division of Ministry for the impressive
and strong service of ordination on Monday evening. To the Conference
Council on Ministries, to Boards and Agencies, Commissions, and Com-
mittee, Thank you for well prepared reports and for the ambitious plans
presented to us for our work in the future. One of the greatest blessings of
this Annual conference and we give Thanks to God for it, has been each
other. For this time of meeting and greeting each other in the spirit of
Christian Community we praise Thee, O God. Yes, we are Thankful for
each one who has been present. Add all of these blessings together and we
must acknowledge and accept all of them as evidence of God's Love to us.
So to our living Lord Jesus Christ be all praise and honor and glory for the
blessed gift of His Holy Spirit in This Pentecost Week.

Resolution in Memory of Mrs. Eda M. Rogers
Eight years ago in this auditorium the 1968 Session of the North
Carolina Annual Conference elected me as your Conference Treasurer-
Business Administrator. I began to assume the duties and responsibilities
of this office with fear and trembling. But I soon discovered in the
Treasurer's Office Staff a team effort and spirit which dispelled the anxiety
which I had previously experienced.
389
One member of this staff was Mrs. Eda Rogers, assistant secretary. In
her responsibilities as assistant treasurer, she was coordinator of office ac-
tivities and secretary to the Treasurer. Eda Rogers was one of the most ef-
ficient persons I have ever known. Her dedication to her job left nothing
to be desired. Her loyalty to me and to the conference could at no times
be questioned. But more important than any of these qualities is the
fact that she was a beautiful Christian person. Her life day by day bore the
fruits of the indwelling of the Holy Spirit. She was an unusually unselfish
person, always thinking of the welfare and the well-being of others. She
was always cheerful in her service to and relationship with others, and for
twenty-one years was a faithful servant of this conference through the Con-
ference Treasurer's Office.
On May 6, 1976, following a brief illness, Eda Rogers passed from this
physical life into the next phase of her eternal life.
Therefore, I move that this session of the North Carolina Annual Con-
ference stand for a brief period of silence in her memory and in ap-
preciation for her many years of effective and dedicated service to this Nor-
th Carolina Conference.
(The Conference stood in silence. Editor)
Evaluation of Annual Conference Sessions
I move that this Annual Conference Session refer to our Conference
Council on Ministries that they study the possibility of the development of
and process for the re-evaluation of our Annual Conference Sessions, and
that the Conference Council on Ministries make such and report to our
Annual conference in 1977.
Lay Life and Work Structure
The structure of the Conference Division of Lay Life and Work will be :
1 . The Conference Lay Leader
2. The Conference President of United Methodist Women
3. The Conference President of United Methodist Men
4. The Conference President of United Methodist Youth
5. Each District Lay Leader
6. One Adult Layman from each district
7. One Adult Laywoman from each district
8. One Youth or Young Adult from each district
The names of the above three representatives to be submitted to the
Conference Nominating Committee by the District Committee on
Lay Life and Work, and at least one of the three from each district
shall be a member of the District Committee on Lay Life and Work.

the needs of the Native American Church and to make appropriate recom-
mendations thereof to the Conference Council on Ministries.

Lay Workers as Voting Delegates
Recognizing that Diaconal Ministers (Lay Workers) are professional
persons ministering in the United Methodist Church, and whereas the
General Conference voted to give the Annual Conference the privilege of
granting consecrated Lay Workers voting delegate status to the Annual
Conference; we move that the consecrated Lay Workers of the North
Carolina Conference be given this right, within the framework of the Lay
Equalization plan, and ask that the implementation be referred to the Lay
Equalization Committee.
Martha B. Garrick
Nominations Study Committee
Be it resolved that a study Committee made up of three Cabinet Mem-
bers, three Pastors, and six lay persons be appointed by the Bishop to study
the process for making nominations to Annual Conference and General
Conference Boards and Agencies and to prepare a proposal amending the
Standing Rules of the Annual Conference in order to expedite nominating
and electing process while at the same time giving the delegates of the An-
nual Conference the opportunity to participate fully in the election
process.
391
Be it further resolved that the Council on Finance and Administration
provide adequate funding for the Study.
Youth-Young Adult Delegates
The Lay Clergy Equalization Committee recommends that the three
Youth/Young Adult at large delegates to Annual Conference from each
district be selected by a committee composed of the District Superin-
tendent as Chairman, the District Coordinator of Youth Ministries and the
District Coordinator of Young Adult Ministries.
Lay-Clergy Equalization Committee
The Lay-Clergy Equalization Committee recommends that the college
Presidents of Louisburg College, Methodist College and N.C. Wesleyan
College be made members of the North Carolina Annual conference sub-
ject to their meeting the Disciplinary requirements. Their order of
precedence in the Lay Equalization Formular will follow the Lay Persons
selected by virtue of the office they hold and prior to the Lay Persons selec-
ted from the local churches.
Methodist Retirement Home Entrance Fee
"The North Carolina conference Respectively Requests the Board of
Trustees of the Methodist Retirement Home Inc. to review their financial
requirements for entrance into the Home in connection with the newly im-
plemented $6000 entrance fee."
Nathan H. Byrd : Ahoskie
Moving Expenses
WHEREAS, moving is part of our itinerant system, and
WHEREAS, the reimbursements now paid by the Conference do not
cover moving expenses,
BE IT RESOLVED that by 1978 ministers shall be reimbursed for all
their moving expenses and that the C-F-&-A take the necessary steps to
assure this.
Council on Ministries Executive Committee Motion
WHEREAS, the North Carolina Conference at its 1974 session
authorized the Council on Ministries to appoint an additional staff person
to be known as the Coordinator/Enabler for Special Ministries and
Economic Development, and
WHEREAS, the Staff Personnel Committee of the Conference Council
on Ministries has made diligent, but unsuccessful effort to find a person
willing and competent to serve in this dual capacity,
BE IT, THEREFORE, RESOLVED that the Annual Conference give
permission to the Conference Council on Ministries to re-arrange job
descriptions in order that the functions described by the Conference may
be best fulfilled, by the addition of not more than one staff person.

Regarding Chaplains for the North Carolina Division of Prisons
Whereas:
Whereas:
Whereas:
Wh<
From : Board of Church and Society
There are only three full-time Chaplains in the
North Carolina Division of Prisons to provide reli-
gious ministry to 12,600 inmates in 77 prisons across
the state; and
There is no Chaplain's position at :
Polk Youth Center in Raleigh where 490 young
men are confined.
Harnett Youth Center where 510 young men are
confined.
Caledonia Prison where 566 adult men are con-
fined.
Odom Prison where 385 men are confined.
Craggy Prison where 220 men are confined.
Blanch Prison where 105 men are in close custody;
and
In 65 "field units" across the state religious ministry is
made available mostly by volunteers; and
Neighboring states have privided Chaplaincy ser-
South Carolina has 10 full-time chaplains;
Georgia has 9 full-time chaplains;
Florida has 26 full-time chaplains and 12 part-
time chaplains:
Now, therefore, be it resolved that the North Carolina Conference of the
United Methodist Church call upon the North Carolina General Assembly
to fund the proposal of the Department of Corrections, calling for
$136,000 to provide chaplain services for our prison population.
Supporting a Criminal Victim Compensation Act for the State of North
Carolina
From: Board of Church and Society
Whereas: The state owes a duty to each individual to protect
them from crime, and;
Whereas: When the state fails in this duty, the state ought to
reimburse the victim of crime for the injury
sustained, and;
Whereas: Twelve states have already enacted such legislation:
New York, California, Hawaii, Maryland,
Massachusetts, New Jersey, Alaska, Illinois,
Delaware, Rhode Island, Washington and Wiscon-
sin:
Now, therefore, be it resolved that the North Carolina Annual Conference
of the United Methodist Church call upon the General Assembly of the
state of North Carolina to enact a Criminal Victim Compensation Act, to
include widows and families of law enforcement officials killed or injured
393
in the performance of duty, any victim of violent crime who suffers
physical injury and/or loss of time from employment, any "good
Samaritan," who is injured in the assistance of a law enforcement official
in the performance of his duty, and any citizen injured through police ac-
tion.
Concerning administration of jails in North Carolina
From : Board of Church and Society
Whereas: The administration of jails in North Carolina is a
national disgrace ; and
Whereas: There is a lack of uniformity of supervision, ad-
ministration and facilities; and
Whereas: There is a need for standardization of facilities,
management, staff and care of prisoners :
Now, therefore, be it resolved that the North Carolina Conference of the
United Methodist Church expresses its concern about our jails to the
County Commissioners in the 100 counties of the state of North Carolina;
Be it further resolved that local churches work to effect change where
such is needed.
Concerning the humanization of Prisons in North Carolina
From : Board of Church and Society
Whereas: The prisons in North Carolina are inhuman places of
terror; and
Whereas: Safety and security in our prison system is at a
minimum; and
Whereas: Helping and rehabilitation programs touch only a
few; and
Whereas: Our present prisons tend to reinforce criminal at-
titudes and behavior, and recidivism rates are high
for those who serve prison sentences, and
Whereas: If the physical safety of all caged adults and
juveniles, men and women, were achieved, we could
more responsibly address larger questions like the
diminution of crime and the rehabilitation of
criminals:
Now, therefore, be it resolved that the North Carolina Conference of The
United Methodist Church call upon the North Carolina General Assembly
and the North Carolina Department of Corrections to develop a more
adequate and humane prison system aimed at: alleviating overcrowding;
a full policy of rehabilitation and human respect; provide adequate protec-
tion of inmates ; provide fully adequate medical attention ; afford proper
food, recreation and physical conditions; develop serious educational and
vocational programs; rejecting absolutely any practices of brutality and
harassment; and in other ways develop programs aimed toward a full
policy of rehabilitation and human respect.
