Charles Oliver Dist. Sec. Don Jernigan 4 Nineteen hundred eighty-three marked a significant parallel between the Churches of the Nazarene in general and the Alabama District Church of the Nazarene in particular as both celebrated their Seventy-fifth Anniversary. A special 75th Anniversary book was prepared, which traces the history of Alabama District with pictures of early beginnings and present day facilities together with the pioneers and present pastors who have played such a significant role in the establishment and maintenance of the church. The Alabama District Assembly of 1981 voted to create two districts at the annual assembly of 1983: Alabama North and Alabama South. The culmination of the division occurred on May 5, 1983, at Cullman with Dr. Orville W. Jenkins presiding over the North and Dr. Charles H. Strickland presiding over the South.

DAILY PROCEEDINGS Wednesday, April 25, 2013 Ordination Service The 31st Annual District Assembly began with a pre-service music concert with Mr. and Mrs. Dane Harris. During the pre-service proceedings Dr. Joe Godfrey with Alabama Citizens Action Program (ALCAP) gave his annual report and encouraged all churches to be aware of critical legislation that will affect that state. We were exhorted by Dr. Mark Berry, District Superintendent, to make sure we are sending in our recommended offerings to help support the mission of ALCAP. Rev. Lamar Smith, from the Alabama North District, gave a short presentation on the campgrounds. He asked us to become "Friends of the Campground, a program that will help us raise $120,000 over the next year to help with the needed upkeep and maintenance on the grounds. Dr. Mark Berry, Alabama South District Superintendent, then welcomed Dr. Jesse Middendorf, presiding General Superintendent, to the platform and the Ordination Service was officially underway. The partial report #1 of the District Board of Ministry was presented by Rev. Mitchell Powell, Chairman of the Alabama South District Board of Ministry. The ordinands were then led into the sanctuary by District Secretary Rev. William D. Holley, as the congregation and delegates sang "Holiness Unto the Lord." The congregation and candidates for ordination participated in scripture reading, The Apostles Creed, and the singing. The ordinands were presented, examined, and found fit for ordination. The Minister's choir encouraged the assembly and the ordinands with the song "When We See Christ." Dr. Middendorf gave a powerful message on the character, context, and content of one's ministry. 50 The Candidates were brought to the platform one by one as the Ordained Elders gathered round. The General Superintendent with the minister's laid hands on, and ordained each candidate. Rev. Eric Ellis and Rev. Dean Hornaday were elected to the order of the Elder, while Rev. Alma Butler and Rev. Virginia Jackson were elected to the order of Deacon. The service concluded with a presentation to each candidate from the General Superintendent of each person's Ordination Credentials, our District Superintendent presented a portable Communion Set from the district and a beautiful bronze carving from Trevecca Nazarene University, named, "The Calling." The Ordinands and the assembly were dismissed to the Family Life Center for a reception prepared by the Millbrook Church of the Nazarene, and reminded to be back at 7:58 for the next day’s business meeting. THURSDAY 8:00 AM ~ April 26, 2013 The 31st Annual District Assembly convened and was underway with announcements from Rev. Mark Berry. He recognized Dr. Philip Sessions, District Superintendent Emeritus, and his wife Mary, and Dr. Sessions come to the platform and opened us with prayer. The assembly joined together in singing "Jesus Lifted Me," led by Mr. and Mrs. Dane Harris and the Millbrook praise team. An offering was received to further cover Assembly expenses. The praise team came back to the platform and led us in more congregational singing. Dr. Jesse Middendorf then stepped to the pulpit to deliver the morning devotional. He chose Philippians 1:1-11 for his text. He started by proclaiming to us that often what others consider to be a prison, we can discover as a place of great ministry. The letter is from the ones who have discovered that "Christ is Everything" to me. Not slaves out of compulsion, but out of passion. Our Christianity has become so rote, that we often can live day after day after day without passion. Dr. Middendorf reminded us that we need to get the passion back. We need to remember that He, Jesus is everything. Dr. Middendorf expounded on the text telling us about Paul's four great passions. #1 - Paul's passion for Christ. He without a doubt knew that Jesus was the Son of God, Creator, Messiah. #2 - Paul's passion for Holiness, which is the natural byproduct of a passion of Jesus. This is a passion that could never be achieved by following the law, but only by wholeheartedly following the Lord Jesus Christ. #3 - Paul's passion for the church, the Body of Christ, Paul actually died for his passion for the church. And finally #4 - Paul's passion for the lost and broken. Our passion for lost and broken people needs to be so great that it drives our entire agenda. Christ sets our agenda, and his agenda was lost and broken people. The morning devotional time was concluded with prayer. The congregation and assembly broke out in spontaneous singing of "Be Glorified." The business session of the 31st assembly of the Alabama South District was then called to order by Dr. Jesse Middendorf, presiding General Superintendent. Rev. William Holley, District Secretary, read the motion to accept the following: Statistical Secretary, Rev. William Holley; Recording Secretary, Rev. Bonnye Campbell; Pages, Rev. Eric Ellis, Rev.

The motion was seconded, passed and the business meeting proceeded. Alternates were verified and seated, by motion, second, and passed unanimously. 51 Special Orders of the Day began at 9:30 am. District Superintendent, Rev. Dr. Mark Berry, was called to the pulpit to give his sixth report to the assembly. Dr. Middendorf reminded us that this is the most important report we will hear, as it is a summation of everything that has happened on the District throughout the year. Dr. Berry began his report showing a video about geese. The whole point is about our connections together and which place each of us has in the flock. The theme this year is "We Are Better Together!" The pastors of the churches were asked to stand - and Dr. Berry asked Dr. Middendorf to pray over them - that they would have a holy passion for revival in their churches. The pastors came forward and the assembly gathered in around and prayer went up that Alabama South could see people won to the Lord and the Kingdom of God expanded beyond our wildest imagination. At the close of his report Dr. Middendorf asked if the assembly would accept this report by a show of appreciation. There was a rousing standing ovation. The report was received and entered into the record as such. Then, Dr. Middendorf asked the assembly to take up a love offering for the District Superintendent and his wife Debi.

The goal is 100% paid and Dr. Mark Berry has asked the churches and individuals of the assembly to give sacrificially to see that we raise the amount in full to ensure that our retired ministers continue to receive their benefits. The General Superintendent made an announcement on the voting for our District Superintendent. 156 Ballots were cast. Necessary to elect was 104; Yes: 143 - No: 13. Rev.

The Capital City Zone was called forward to give their zone pastors reports. While the District Secretary read the accomplishments for each church Dr. Berry presented Award Certificates to the pastors. The assembly enjoyed these impacting reports. The Middendorfs were given gifts from their respective favorite Alabama Schools. Dr. Middendorf said he saw a dangerous trend appearing...but looked forward to seeing how the day would unfold. Dr. Greg Rickey and his wife were welcomed to the assembly and recognized, by Dr. Middendorf. Dr. Dan Boone, president of Trevecca Nazarene University, was then introduced and welcomed to the platform to give his report. He shared a wonderful video presentation from the University. Dr. Boone reminded us that Trevecca, and all our Nazarene Universities, are the discipleship plan for our teens that are leaving high school, and entering the challenging years of their lives. The universities exist to help prepare leaders for the kingdom, and to retain our teens and young adult to the church of the Nazarene. He let the assembly know that only 12% of graduating seniors attend any kind of Nazarene University. Dr. Boone has said that he has made it his mission to see this rate increase significantly. Dr. Boone presented a book called "The Lord's Prayer, Imagine It Answered." this book goes to support the Needy Student Fund; books are $5 each. He also pointed us toward a form in our packet that will help us give a scholarship for $1000 to an Alabama South District student. In closing - Dr. Boone shared what warms his heart the most; The "I AM Second" program. This program has the athletes being the student spiritual leaders on the campus. Although they compete to win - they are second and the Lord is first. They are not only winning at their sports, they are winning in their testimonies in the world. While all over the rest of the country, Christian Universities and Colleges are closing, Trevecca will be there tomorrow because the Nazarene people want it there. Dr. Boone wants us to be a rabid recruiter for the university, and a gatherer of funds from our local churches to keep our University strong. The Trevecca Nazarene University Alumni award this year is given to Rev. Larry Sparker from the Columbiana Church. It was presented by Rev. Michael Johnson, on behalf of the University.

Ventling encouraged the people to go to the camp and use it. He believes lives will be changed. There is a work week scheduled the first week of May and he asked for anyone who can to come and help restore the buildings. He concluded in saying we need to pray, pray, pray! Pray for funds, for workers, but most of all for people who will come there and be changed by God during a time away. Rev. Lamar Smith then took the podium and asked for each of the pastors to stand. A packet was given to them that spoke of "Friends of Rolling Hill Camp." He announced that Pastors in an RV will stay free at Rolling Hills Family Camp this year. He asked for the pastors to recruit those who would participate in the Friends of the Camp program. Rev. Mark Berry recognized students from Nazarene Bible College. He then presented the 2013 Distinguished Alumnus Award to Rev. William D. Holley, a 1975 graduate of NBC. The North Central and Dothan Zones were called to give their reports. Good reports with vision were given and fun gifts for the GS and his wife were presented. The Mobile Zone was then called to give their reports. The pastors and their congregations showered the GS and his wife with fun gifts and visionary reports were given. There was a video presented from headquarters, reminding us that TOGETHER WE ARE BETTER. The next group of pastors was called from the South Central Zone, followed by the Tuscaloosa Zone. Great reports were given and many more Alabama/Auburn gifts were given to the Middendorfs. 54 District Secretary made a motion to send special greetings to: Mrs. Barbara Chaney-Scaia, wife of former District Superintendent, Dr. Reeford Chaney; Parents of Dr. Berry (Rev. & Mrs. Atwood Berry) and Debi (Mr. & Mrs. Ken Reigard) and Debi; Rev. and Mrs. Greg Storey, District Superintendent elect of the Alabama North District. There was recognition of retired/former District Superintendents present: Dr. and Mrs. J. Roy Fuller, District Superintendent Emeritus, and Dr. and Mrs. Phillip Sessions, District Superintendent, Emeritus. Dr. Mark Berry also recognized visitors and guest of the assembly: Dr. Dan Boone, President Trevecca Nazarene University; Rev. Michael Johnson, Public Liaison for the Office of the President of TNU; and Rev. and Mrs. Greg Storey, Alabama North District Superintendent. There was motion made to let the District Secretary be authorized to edit harmonize, expunge, and print the minutes. The meetings were then adjourned with the Memoirs report and prayer JESSE MIDDENDORF, General Superintendent WILLIAM D. HOLLEY, District Secretary V. REPORTS 1. A. DISTRICT OFFICERS District Superintendent’s Report April 25, 2013 Dr. Jesse & Susan Middendorf, Dr. Roy and Nina Fuller, Dr. Phillip and Mary Sessions, honored guests, esteemed pastors of the Alabama South District, and beloved laity from across our great state, welcome to the 31st District Assembly of the Church of the Nazarene in South Alabama. It is my privilege to share the accomplishments of pastors and laypersons that faithfully served God together in their local churches and communities in this, my sixth report. 1 Corinthians 12:12-13 (The Message) reads, “You can easily enough see how this kind of thing works by looking no further than your own body. Your body has many parts—limbs, organs, cells—but no matter how many parts you can name, you’re still one body. It’s exactly the same with Christ. By means of His one Spirit, we all said good-bye to our partial and piecemeal lives. We each used to independently call our own shots, but then we entered into a large and integrated life in which He has the final say in everything. (This is what we proclaimed in word and action when we were baptized.) Each of us is now a part of his resurrection body, refreshed and sustained at one fountain—His Spirit—where we all come to drink. The old labels we once used to identify ourselves—labels like Jew or Greek, slave or free—are no longer useful.” As we are aware, the General Superintendents will be sharing the theme, “We are Better Together” as they travel to various assemblies this year. Therefore, with the theme of “togetherness” in mind, I want to begin by saying “thank you” to all those who make our district what it is. We are truly a better district when we work together. Words of Appreciation If it were not for the tireless efforts of laypeople and pastors, we could never see our district progress. A “big” thank you to Mr. Jimmy Horton, our District Finance Committee chairman and treasurer. His 55 knowledge in the area of finance has contributed to our financial stability. Of course, it takes churches like yours that gave generously to the district to provide needed funds. Thank you to Rev. Bill Holley, our district secretary. Bill is a God-send to this district. He is organized and thorough, which is what we need in a secretary. I have the privilege of working with a well-qualified office administrator. Debi has worked in banks, churches, and now our district office. She is qualified in experience, talent, and education. With her smile and her capabilities, she has won the hearts of the district. Thank you, Debi, for being a wonderful wife and for the difference you have made on the Alabama South District. A special thank you to the District Advisory Board: Mr. Danny Curtis, Mr. Jim Metcalf, Mr. Dale Strickland, Rev. Bill Holley, Rev. Andy Rutherford, and Rev. Scott Sessions. Thank you for your commitment to the district and the time you have invested. Our Missional Leaders are the most underpaid pastors on the district. Actually, they don’t get paid, but give sacrificially to lead the pastors in their respective mission areas. 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Pastor Carl Reed – Capital Mission Area Pastor Tim Campbell – Chattahoochee Valley Mission Area Pastor Scott Sessions – Dothan Mission Area Pastor Mitchell Powell – Mobile Mission Area Pastor Larry Spraker – North Central Mission Area Pastor James Meadows – South Central Mission Area Pastor James Walker – Tuscaloosa Mission Area We are appreciative to our auxiliary leaders: Pastor Mitchell Powell – our SDMI chairperson, Mr. Bob Evans – our NYI president, and Mrs. Nina Fuller – our NMI president. Let’s share our thanks for their faithful service and good leadership across the district. New Pastors Several new pastors have come to the district or transitioned in ministry this past year. I would like for them to stand as I read their names. Join with me in welcoming our new pastors: Tim & Laura Sullivan (Calvert); Larry & Mary Ann Spraker (Columbiana & Childersburg Community of Hope); Joe Parker (Grand Bay); Bernie & Linda Defffinger (Lanett); Ken & Judy Wyatt (Ridgeville); Walter “Wally” & Loyace Rezendes (Sylacauga); Brett & Christina Medley (Trinity); and James & Dannell Fogel (Valley First). New staff members include: Lance & Debra Conn (Dothan First); Terri & Steve Sinquefield (Columbiana & Childersburg Community of Hope); Mance & Mary Ann McCarthy (Sylacauga); and Mark Aills (Tuscaloosa First). NewStarts I want to give special recognition to our NewStart pastors (please stand as I call your name): Jeff & Lisa Skinner (Auburn Eagle Pointe); Larry & Mary Ann Spraker (Community of Hope); Tonya & Jeff Cotton (Foley Newstart Community); Jeff & Andrea McCoy (God’s Glory Ministries); and Mike & Burma Walters (Open Arms Ministry). 56 The Jeremiah Award – Previously the Playing Hurt Award Jeremiah 29:11 reads, “For I know the plans I have for you,” declares the LORD, “plans to prosper you and not to harm you, plans to give you hope and a future.” The Jeremiah Award is named after Jeremiah, the weeping prophet, who gave hope to the people of Israel and wept with compassion over God’s people. This award is given to the pastor who went through unusually tough circumstances this past year, but prevailed. This retired pastor spent over 20 years in pastoral ministry spanning from Texas, Oklahoma, North Florida, and South Alabama. Numerous times this pastor neared death, but God saw fit to bring him back. All the while, his wife stood faithfully by his side. A few years ago, his wife was told that he would not survive; therefore, bought a casket in preparation for his death. God had a plan for his life. At this time, I would like to present this year’s “Jeremiah Award” to Pastor Mark and Teresa Armstrong. In the midst of near death, they looked to the future in hope. Our Statistics The statistical highlights of the past year are as follows: Raised for all Purposes: $4,150,254 Church Membership: 4,058 New Nazarenes: 160 Worship Attendance Average: 2,794 Discipleship Attendance Average: 2,218 Fund Allocation Payments: World Evangelism Fund: $198,670 (103.10%) District Ministries Fund: $203,654 (90.74%) Education Fund: $72,691 (91.66%) Pensions and Benefits: $74,435 (93.86%) We thank every church that paid 100% or more of their allocations. I challenge churches that did not reach the goal of 100% giving to commit to rising to the challenge of full participation next year! The answer to our financial concerns would be to lead more people to Christ, disciple them and educate them in the purpose of tithing. We have asked pastors to receive or bring an offering to the assembly to help offset the $6,910 deficit in our Pensions budget in order to reach 100%. I will ask pastors to please send their church offerings to the platform today so that the district treasurer can tabulate and then give an offering report after the lunch break. I believe that God will bless our faithfulness in our sacrificial giving. Awards Certificates of achievement will be presented later today when the pastors share their reports. At that time, we want to celebrate the accomplishments of pastors and churches that sacrificially gave for the advancement of the kingdom. HOPE Award The HOPE Award is given to the lead pastor of a church that had a fruitful, passionate ministry of 57 evangelism and discipleship, and a commitment to fund the mission of the Church of the Nazarene through faithful stewardship. This church has brought HOPE to their community with the Gospel of Jesus Christ. This year’s HOPE Award will be presented to the pastor of a recently established Parent-Affiliated Church. Their percentage of conversions was greater than any other church on the district, based on the size of the church. This church has been an example of kingdom building. Rev. Larry Spraker, pastor of the Columbiana Church of the Nazarene, would you please come forward to receive the Hope Award on behalf of the former Childersburg Church, renamed Community of Hope Church of the Nazarene. Project Care A special thank you to those that participated in Project Care that began last year to assist smaller churches in need of updating their facilities. This year we worked on the parsonage at Valley First. Would the following individuals stand in recognition of your participation in this project: Rev. Les & Patsy Snodgrass, Rev. Tim Campbell and the Shawmut Church of the Nazarene, and anyone else who might have assisted in this effort. They are proof of cooperation efforts on the district. We are Better Together There may be some who question the importance of our denomination. I have come up with the most important reasons why we are "better together" through the functions and responsibilities of the Alabama South District: 1. Accountability: We have the greatest means of accountability as a district and denomination. 2. Connectedness: We are a connected district. We care about each other and take part in camps, retreats, and revivals. The district facilitates building of morale through fellowship, collaboration, resourcing, and connectivity. 3. Evangelism: Together we are a group of churches that collectively are impacting our communities for Christ. 4. Finances: Giving, regardless of the size of church, makes a difference for the kingdom. As someone once said, “equal sacrifice, not equal giving.” 5. Leadership Development: The district provides training to pastors through accessible and attractive opportunities for personal and professional growth. 6. Collaborative Discipleship Opportunities: While a few of our larger churches can fund their own retreats, etc., the vast majority of our churches, and even our larger ones, benefit from district-sponsored events. 7. Assessment and Credentialing of Ministers: The accountability through ministerial credentials and studies helps maintain theological clarity and integrity. 8. Pastoral Placement and Pastoral Evaluation Assistance: Church boards are provided assistance by the district in times of pastoral transition and during a pastor's tenure. So, I have concluded that we are “better together” – not independently. Change For us to be “better” in the togetherness, we need to make some changes in our churches on the Alabama South District. We must admit that change does not come easy for most. This plaque was displayed in a local gym: “There are 3 C’s in Life: Choices, chances and changes. You must make a choice to take a chance or your life will never change” 58 Choice: Alabama South District, you have a choice today to either move forward or backwards. Many of us are trying too hard to hold on to past traditions and ways of reaching the lost. Let me remind you that we have left the age of tent meetings and are now in the age of Twitter and Facebook. Someone said that the next greatest revival will look much different from the earlier revivals because of our changing world. Chances: We will need to take chances if we are to move forward. It might make some people upset or perhaps a few may leave our churches, but if we don’t take a chance, we will slowly die. I have actually heard laypeople and board members say, “We don’t want those kind of people in our church.” It’s amazing to me that some churches would rather see their church closed before they would be willing to reach out to a different class or culture of people. This attitude must change. Changes: We will need to make changes or our churches will die. We must learn that the best way of existence is to reproduce ourselves. One answer is: established churches starting new churches, regardless of size. The real answer is living out holiness to the world around us and leading them to Christ. The problem is, too many of our churches talk about holiness, teach about holiness, but don’t live it. Recently, I was reading “Helps to Holiness” written in 1896 by Samuel Brengle of the Salvation Army. He explains the definition of holiness through these words, “Perfect love expels from the heart all hatred and every evil temper contrary to love. Holiness is a state in which there is no anger, malice, blasphemy, hypocrisy, envy, love of ease, selfish desires for good opinion of men, shame of the Cross, worldliness, deceit, debate, contention, nor evil desire or tendency in the heart. It is a state in which there is no longer any doubt or fear. It is a state in which God is loved and trusted with a perfect heart.” Dr. Brengle shared his testimony of this experience of holiness as follows, “I walked out over Boston Common before breakfast, weeping for joy and praising God. Oh, how I loved! In that hour I knew Jesus, and I loved Him till it seemed my heart would break with love. I was filled with love for all His creatures. I heard the little sparrows chattering; I loved them. I saw a little worm wriggling across my path; I stepped over it; I didn’t want to hurt any living thing. I loved the dogs, I loved the horses, I loved the little urchins on the street, I loved the strangers who hurried past me, I loved the heathen, I loved the whole world. May God help us to return to our roots as Nazarenes not only to preach and teach holiness, but live it on a daily basis as pastors and lay people. Let’s spend more time loving each other and the world, than we do fighting over trivial matters. Vision for the Future This year, district pastors did a year-long study on the book by Paul Bordman called, “Make or Break Your Church in 365 Days”. Over 15 pastors came one time or the other during the past year to collaborate together via video conferencing. This is the challenge that was given to us as churches. Boardman states that our vision needs to be about two numbers: 1. The first number represents the individuals who will become new disciples of Christ through the life of the congregation in the next five years. 2. The second number represents the individuals the congregation will touch at least once with the love of Jesus Christ over the next five years through things like a food pantry, vacation Bible school, mission trips, or other events. God laid this on my heart as a challenge to our churches. I would like to challenge your church to have a vision for these two numbers. First, the pastors have been asked to share in their reports of how many 59 souls they would like to reach each year for the next five years. How many will you win to Christ and disciple? Secondly, how many people will you reach each year through outreach events that your church has organized for the purpose of touching the lives of others with the Gospel of Jesus Christ? My prayer is that every church will show life by winning at least one person to Christ each year. Of course, we should be reporting much more. Together, we can make a difference. Separately, we are ineffective. Together, we can challenge each other. Separately, we become loners with an inward mindset. Will you take the challenge? Dynamic Church Planting International (DCPI) In January, 40 pastors, including two from other denominations, and two districts, Alabama North and South, met on the district camp grounds for one week of extensive training for the planting of churches. Out of that training came several NewStart churches that God laid on the hearts of pastors. You will probably hear about these new works in the pastor’s report by those who attended. As part of my training that week, the following came through the joint effort of my team as we shared a vision of what we would like to occur on the Alabama South District: Alabama South District Church of the Nazarene LONG-TERM TRAINING IMPLEMENTATION VISION The Alabama South District Church of the Nazarene seeks to create a Holy Passion for… God Prayer People Progress Our passion for God compels us to fulfill the Great Commission to “Go into all the world and share the Gospel” as emphasized in Matthew 28. It fits the mission for the Church of the Nazarene to "Make Christlike Disciples in the Nations". It is this passion that moves us toward effective church planting multiplication. As taught by Christ, we are to “…Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your strength and with all your mind; and, Love your neighbor as yourself.” (Luke 10:27) Our passion for Prayer moves us to our knees to seek His guidance regarding when and where to plant churches. Prayer gives us the wisdom, knowledge, and power through the Holy Spirit to move from an ingrown churches to outgrown. Prayer gives us direction and points our minds and hearts toward God. This passion for prayer is seen as the driving force behind every effort to plant churches on the Alabama South District. It is a total dependence upon God. Our passion for People will be the catalyst for seeking new locations of worship for people that are seeking God. Our passion for people will result in new congregations reaching out to a community in compassion. We are motivated by a love for God and people to seek new venues of ministry. Our passion for Progress will drive us into moving forward without waning. Paul stressed, “I press on toward the goal to win the prize for which God has called me heavenward in Christ Jesus” (Philippians 3:14). Our desire will be to create an atmosphere and a culture of progress through the planting of new 60 churches. GOALS 1. It is our passion to change the mindset of churches and pastors on the Alabama South District to a community mindset rather than an inward mindset. 2. We desire for a heart of compassion for the lost in each leader across the district for their communities; thus, the desire to plant vibrant and growing new churches. 3. This Holy Passion leads us to the following goals within the next 10 years: a. To plant 20 new Anglo churches (2 per year) b. To plant 10 new Black churches (1 per year) c. To plant 10 new Hispanic churches (1 per year) 4. We will introduce Dynamic Church Planting International (DCPI) to all the pastors on the district through the yearly district superintendent’s training tour. 5. We will provide an introductory class for pastors and leaders in DCPI at the “Team Day” event in August of 2013, utilizing our trainers for the Churches Planting Churches (CPC) and Church Planting Essentials (CPE) tracks. This will merely familiarize leaders in what DCPI can offer. 6. We will begin the training of pastors and leaders through trained DCPI trainers in the areas of CPC and CPE. This training has already been scheduled under the leadership of Pastor Jeff Skinner of Auburn Eagle Pointe. Information is available in your packets. 7. Our goal will be to train every pastor on our district in various areas of DCPI within the next two to three years. 8. The five trained DCPI leaders will conduct training in their area of expertise at least once a year in their mission area. A total of one training session will be conducted each fall by the trainers on the district. 9. On January 13-17, 2014, we will reconvene at the Rolling Hills Camp and Conference Center for training in the areas of CPC and CPE, which will be a joint effort of the Alabama North and South districts. 10. As a new pastor joins the district, we will conduct a “new pastor” training and introduce them to our culture of planting churches through DCPI. 11. It is our vision that before a pastor on the Alabama South District can be ordained, they will be required to take either CPE or CPC. 12. We will ask each local church to provide two numbers for the 50 churches on the district: a. A five-year goal of individuals who will come to know Christ and be discipled. A project goal would be 20 per church or 1,000 per year or 5,000 in five years. b. A five-year goal of lives that we touch through the Gospel of Jesus Christ through various events such as: VBS, special events, Christmas/Easter events, etc. A projected goal would be at least 2,000 per church or 100,000 per year or 500,000 in five years. 13. Out of these two numbers we believe that God will give us the privilege of starting new churches. 14. Our ultimate goal is to make a significant difference for eternity so that our generation will be remembered for starting new churches that are making an impact in South Alabama. STRATEGIES 1. Provide statistics to emphasize why we need to plant churches. Our present numbers should bring us to our knees, and then to our feet to move into action. 2. We will place an emphasis on church planting and praying for church planting across the district on a specific Sunday in January of each year, specifically during the week of DCPI training at Rolling Hills. 3. We will encourage every church to place church planting as a priority on their prayer list and in their bulletins and literature on weekly/monthly basis. 4. In order to train all pastors on the district, we will need to utilize technology through video conferencing. 5. We will use the present missional leaders to gather their mission area pastors for training. 6. We will use our present “Team Day” to present church planting to the district and its leaders. 7. We will share our district vision through publications, assemblies, and various events throughout the year. 61 Our strategy is for the local church to catch this vision and not see it as solely a district vision. The challenge is, what would God have your church do to plant another church? Perhaps your church will start with a Bible study in a parishioner’s home that will eventually become a new church. What vision do you have for your local church? When we get in the mindset that we do things better together, then we will begin to see Alabama South District churches working together to start new churches without jealousy or competition. DISTRICT OFFICE If we are to do the above, our district office will need to be updated to a center of training. I have a vision for the District Center that has been caught by your District Advisory Board. Fifteen plus years ago, the present office space was leased in order to provide for a new and growing district. Times have changed and our district has different needs. It was recently agreed upon by the Advisory Board that we have outgrown our present facilities and there is a need to pursue the purchase of a property that will prepare us for the future. We are in need of space that can enable us to provide for training of pastors and a center where we can house all auxiliaries when they have their meetings throughout the year. Presently, we have been in negotiation with the facility that you will see on the screen and are praying that God will give us the property that He so desires. Pray with us as we seek His will. If your church would like to join in the vision, we may call upon you to contribute. Let’s pray for God’s will. EVANGELISM, DISCIPLESHIP, AND CHURCH PLANTING STARTS WITH THE HEART J.B. Chapman spoke at Kansas City First Church of the Nazarene in 1946 and said, “I want a revival that, like a summer shower, that will purify the atmosphere of our churches everywhere, and which will awake the dormant forces of our people young and old. I want something so general and so divine that it will be uncontrollable. I want something that will reemphasize old-time moral and spiritual conditions.” J.B. Chapman went on to say, “Nine-tenths of the bickering and fault-finding and suspicion and criticism among us, laymen and preachers, general and district superintendents, would disappear if we were people joined up in an all-out crusade for souls.” Dr. James Diehl, Nazarene General Superintendent Emeritus, speaking at the 1997 Nazarene General Assembly said: “The question before us is this: Is there enough passion in the soul of the church to carry this holiness message to the peoples of this world? Our problem is not with our profession, but with our passion. Our problem is not with our procedures, but with our passion. Our problem is not with our policy, but with our passion. Our problem is not with our purpose, but with our passion. Our problem is not with our programs, but with our passion. When it is all said and done: If we lose our passion, we lose our movement.” Again, let me remind you of our vision: To be a district with a Holy Passion for God, Prayer, People and Progress. THE CHALLENGE 62 We are all familiar with the verse in Proverbs 29:18 that reads, “Without a vision, the people perish”. What vision do you have for your church? It is not only about the pastor’s vision, but a collaboration and cooperation of the people who see something "together". For you see, “together is really better”. At this time, I would like for each pastor to stand where they are and have our General Superintendent pray a prayer for you and your church. My prayer for you is that God would lay a vision on your heart that would spill over into your church, a passion for God that will burn within your soul, and a love for each other that will bring us together in Christ. Let’s come stand "together" and commit our goals to Christ. Let's desire a move of God upon our hearts and lives that would affect our churches and cause a revival like we have never experienced before! Respectfully submitted, Mark D. Berry, District Superintendent 2. Sunday School and Discipleship Ministries International Chairman April 24, 2013 Greetings to: Dr. Jesse Middendorf, Dr. Berry, delegates and friends of the convention. I stand before you today humbled by this past year. Having accepted this position by appointment from our District Leadership without any prior preparation, I soon discovered that I had more to learn than I ever imagined. I give God thanks for the great people had placed along side me to help me in this ministry: Dr. Berry our D.S., Each of my Department Heads (have stand), each Mission Area Leader (have stand) and the District Sunday School Board (have stand). Let me give a special note of thanks to Rev. Bill Holley and Rev. Carl Reed for their untiring efforts to keep me straight. To these I invite you to join me in giving a sign of thanks for what they have allowed God to do through them this past year in our local churches and on the district scene (lead in applause). During this past year I had the privilege of attending each district Sunday School functions that I could. I must say now that our district Sunday School is alive and well, seeking the lost and bringing the message of holiness through a wide variety of formats. I take sanctified pride in being counted among you the people of Alabama South Church of the Nazarene who love the Lord your God and your neighbor. God will bless you with the reward of your labor! There have been great days on the local level as well! These churches have given their best and experienced the grace of God this past year in their Sunday Schools. (Call out Award Churches and present Certificates). We join them in their celebration because in is all for the Kingdom and the souls that have been changed! Our District retreats are a much needed function of the Sunday School arm of our district church. I encourage you to: 1) Plan to attend the retreats that are appropriate for you, 2) Pray for those retreats that they by be a time of renewal physically and a time of spiritual revival. 3) If you can’t go pick out one and support them with your generous gift. Please allow me to speak briefly to two district programs that God has made especially dear to my heart. 1) Quizzing: While Teen Quizzing falls under the prevue of the NYI, the making of great quizzers begins in our Children’s Quizzing program. If you church is not participating – your children 63 need for you to do so – yesterday! In this program your child will be exposed to the Word of God in a much more penetrating and power manner than in any other program God has given to us! They will be into the Word of God but more importantly you will find that the Word of God is in them to have an eternal life changing effect! 2) VBS: What a blessing VBS is to our local church and community. If you do the traditional or alternative style it is still one of the greatest outreach happenings that your local Sunday School will experience. Plan your VBS, Pray God’s Spirit upon your VBS, Participate in bringing children to your VBS, Place yourself on the children’s door step afterwards and meet the parents! And just see what God will do! This summer or VBS offering will be different. In conjunction with Alabama North District Church of the Nazarene our missionary offering project will have a closer to home impact than normal. All VBS offerings will still be counted as approved mission and 10% giving. But our offerings will be designated as a home mission project. This year our offerings will go to the jointly operated campgrounds for the installation of a fully equipped children’s playground complete with safety mulch! Your children will be able to give and see a tangible result of their giving right here at home. Please allow me to close by sharing with you a hope and a prayer for your local Sunday School. Imagine if your will a Sunday School where each children’s teacher makes weekly contact with each child, just to keep in touch and love them in Jesus’ name. Imagine a Sunday School where each Youth and Young Adult teacher is active in the lives of each pupil outside the classroom. Sharing the ups and downs of life on an individual basis and tempering that sharing with the love of God being given to each student through their Sunday School Teacher. Imagine a Sunday School where every Adult Teacher reaches out during the week to make house or hospital call, leave that text or e-mail or talk on the phone just for the purpose of being the hands and feet of God to their students. Imagine a Sunday School where love is spoken every day of the week not with words but with meaningful actions. Imagine a Sunday School where teacher and student alike are fully engaged in being Christ to each other and community we live in. Thank you for the privilege I have had this past year of being ministered to by you – our district Sunday School ministries! God has blessed and His blessings never cease! Respectfully Submitted, Rev. Mitchell L. Powell 3. Nazarene Missions International President’s Report April 24, 2013 To Rev. and Mrs. Heap, Dr. Mark Berry, special guests, delegates and friends of this thirtieth NMI Convention, it is a privilege to bring my fifth report for the Alabama South District, “Partners in the Harvest” of God’s kingdom. It is a joy to serve, to pray, to give and work with faithful and generous people who are ready and willing to be involved in the Harvest. Many before us have planted and watered and God is giving the growth. Jesus said in John 4:35: “Lift up your eyes, and look on the fields, for they are white already to harvest.” I recently learned that when the wheat field is ready for harvest it is a bright golden color and as the wheat matures it begins to turn a snowy white. Jesus said the fields are white for harvest. That means it is ripe and ready. It needs to be done now or the harvest will ruin and it will be too late. There are still many fields that we need to reach with the love of God before it is too late. We are blessed with district leaders who believe in the Great Commission and give us instruction and inspire us to keep on the mission to which God has called us. Thank you, Dr. Berry and Debi, for 64 your strong leadership and your encouragement and support throughout the year. We are grateful for all the ways you help us to be people of God. I am thankful for my husband who is always lending his support and very often asking, “What can I do to help?” He helps in so many ways and I could not do this job without him and his encouragement. He really deserves some kind of medal! It is a privilege to serve with the dedicated leaders who make up the District NMI Council. Each one of them has a heart for missions and they serve with joy. I would like to recognize them: Donna Angerbrandt, Debi Berry, Diane Thompson, Judy Wyatt, June Jarrell, Dot Brumbeloe, Lisa Skinner, Beth Hopkins, Dorothy Heller, Beckie Shackelford, Amanda Young, Sue Williams, Lavelle Nobles, Freddy Williams. Thank you, district council, for your service to God and the church through NMI. We are “PARTNERS IN THE HARVEST” by: PRAYING: Prayer is the key to successful missionary work. It is an important key to helping bring in the harvest. Missionaries always tell us that the most important thing we can do for them is to pray. I suggest to you that you be specific in your prayers and pray regularly for missionaries by name, pray for your LINKS family, pray for missionaries who visit our district, and others that you may know personally. By praying specifically for special people and particular needs you will feel more involved in the harvest of souls. Try it and receive a blessing and be a blessing to a missionary! Continue to pray for the meetings of the Global NMI Convention and General Assembly coming up in June. The Board of General Superintendents have asked us all to join in a time of Prayer & Fasting beginning June 1 – 21as we approach the General Assembly and Conventions. We are “PARTNERS IN THE HARVEST” by: EDUCATING and INVOLVING: Pastors and NMI presidents, thank you for your prayers, involvement and leadership in missions. You have educated and challenged your people to support missions. You have involved every age group, children, teens, and adults in all different areas of the mission work. Many of you have met all your goals. Some of you worked very hard, but just didn’t quite reach your goals. We say thank you to all of you, pastors and presidents, and local council members for your service to God and every contribution to global missions. (A gift from Cuba is in every church’s packet) I thank you for educating and informing your people about Nazarene missions by promoting the Reading Books. Many of you have read all of the books and we have a total of 3743 (4114 readers in 2012) readers. Lisa Skinner, Mission Education Coordinator will present some awards a little later this morning and share some information about the presidents packets. (Awards go to Tuscaloosa Holten Heights 180%over goal and Calvert 320% over goal.) TEAM Day is another way we educate and inform. Thanks to all who participated in TEAM Day last August. NMI presented three workshops to help you in your local missions program. You brought over 300 pounds of school supplies to TEAM Day and June Jarrell was able to take them to the Pathway for Children Child Development Center in the Dominican Republic that we had supported through the Children’s Project the year before. You will hear more about that later. We anticipate another great TEAM Day, August 10, 2013 sharing information to help each other. We are “PARTNERS IN THE HARVEST” through… WORK & WITNESS: Alabama South District sent a Work & Witness team to Honduras this past October where they worked on the Ulola church and parsonage. God helped in many and mighty ways for us to be able to send a team to Cuba earlier this month. Just 15 days ago they returned from Cuba. We can hardly wait to hear the report of our Work & Witness director, June Jarrell, later this morning. 65 We are “PARTNERS IN THE HARVEST” with… MISSIONARIES: We have brought first-hand reports to you through missionaries. We hosted two missionary families on the district last year: Gary & Penney (Zambia) and Russell & Donna (Africa). I urge you to schedule a missionary for your church. We are thankful to Dot Brumbeloe for her tremendous work in scheduling Deputation Tours on the District. Please talk with her about a missionary. This is one of the most effective ways to connect your church with what is happening on the mission field. January 26, 2013 we had our first Teen Mission Rally at Capital City Church with NMI/NYI jointly sponsoring the event. There were over 100 in attendance and missionaries Russ & Donna from Africa really connected with our teens. We give special thanks to Lisa Skinner and Bob Evans for coordinating the day. We are already anticipating the second Teen Mission Rally, January 25, 2014 with missionary Cynthia from Argentina. We are “PARTNERS IN THE HARVEST” through… OUR CHILDREN: Alabama South children are “Partners in the Harvest”. The Children’s Mission Rally, held in October each year, continues to be a well attended day for our boys and girls. Gary & Penney and their children were a blessing as they told us about their work in Zambia. It is a joy to see the children’s enthusiasm for missions and their desire to participate in the Children’s projects each year. As Judy reported last evening, our children have again gone above and beyond and raised a total of $16,691.00 for the District Center in Guyana. Did you know that in these last 6 years our children have given over $ 87,000.00 to world mission projects. We thank Judy Wyatt for her leadership and look forward to the new project this year of supporting the Boat for the Amazon in Brazil which will help to reach hundreds of boys and girls and men and women with the Gospel who could not be reached without the boat. We are “PARTNERS IN THE HARVEST” through our… GIVING: I am grateful and amazed at your generous giving to world missions.

HOLTEN HEIGHTS WALLACE CHAPEL THANK YOU SO MUCH FOR ALL THE WAYS YOU HAVE BEEN “PARTNERS IN THE HARVEST” THIS PAST YEAR. YOU HAVE AMAZED ME AND I BELIEVE GOD IS PLEASED WITH ALL THE THINGS WE HAVE DONE….AND I THINK HE IS STILL SAYING TO US: “The harvest fields are white, but the reapers (workers) are few. Look at the fields they are open and ready for the harvest.” They have passed the golden color stage and are now white. This means we must get to the work of the harvest while there is still time. How do you think Jesus sees the harvest? I think… 1. Jesus sees the Harvest as Plentiful “Then Jesus said to his disciples, ‘The harvest is plentiful” (Matt 9:37). In Jesus’ day the world population was approximately 150 million people. The world’s population today exceeds 6 billion people – with over 300 million in the United States. The number of spiritually lost and dying is overwhelming. The harvest is plentiful. 2. Jesus sees the Harvest as Precious Make no mistake about it: Jesus loves people. “When he saw the crowds, he had compassion on them” (Matt. 9:36) The word Compassion describes the love that moves a person to the depths of their being, that moves people to cry for others, that moves people beyond sentimental feelings to heartfelt action. Roy Fish served as professor of evangelism at Southwestern Baptist Seminary. Years ago, his infant son had an illness that almost caused his death. Fish’s heart broke at the thought of his son dying. 67 As he waited by his son’s bed, Fish pondered the question, “What would I regret most if my son died? The answer came clear he said, “I would regret that he died never knowing how much I love him.” Jesus’ heart grieves over every soul. God grieves because those who die without Christ never know how much he loves them. The harvest is precious. 3. Jesus sees the Harvest as Perishing Jesus said to his followers, “Open your eyes and look at the fields! They are ripe for harvest” (John 4:35) Ripened wheat takes on a golden hue when ready for harvest. However, if reaping is delayed, the grain begins to turn a pale white and will soon fall over on the ground. There is always a sense of urgency to bringing in the harvest. The old preacher Vance Havner used to say, “The tragedy of our time is that the situation is desperate, but the saints are not.” The fields are white we need to get the reaping done before it is too late! The Gospel is only good news if it arrives in time. The harvest is perishing. 4. Jesus sees the Harvest as Priority In Matt 9:37-38 Jesus says, “The harvest is plentiful, but the workers are few. Ask the Lord of the harvest therefore to send out workers into his harvest field”. The harvest will never be reaped unless there are reapers to reap it. As followers of Jesus today (we) need to see people as Jesus saw them – as plentiful, precious and perishing. Our job is not to save the harvest – that’s God’s work. Our job is to tell the people about the Lord of the harvest. We must pray, we must go, we must send. We may need to send our sons and daughters. Sadly, a professor of missions at a Nazarene university shared with me that one of the greatest hindrances to young people responding to the call to missions is that their parents do not want to release them. A subtle false teaching says we can be evangelical without being evangelistic. It has us believe that we go to church rather than we go into the world. That kind of thinking will not get the harvest in. You say, there are so many people. The harvest is so vast. The needs are so overwhelming. What can I do? I am reminded of the old man, walking the beach at dawn, who noticed a young man ahead of him picking up starfish and flinging them into the sea. Catching up with the youth, he asked what he was doing. The answer was that the stranded starfish would die if left in the morning sun. “But the beach goes on for miles, and there are millions of starfish,” countered the old man “how can your effort make a difference?” The young man looked at the starfish in his hand and then threw it to safety in the waves. “It makes a difference to that one,” he said. I hope that your heart is stirred to make a difference in the harvest. When we begin to see people as Jesus saw people it makes all the difference in the world. When we see people as Jesus saw people it will cause us to take responsibility, to pray, to go and to tell about Jesus. The harvest is ready. I believe we can and we must do more when it comes to bringing in the harvest of souls? We can rejoice over our past accomplishments as Partners in the Harvest, and we can also enjoy the work of today as God gives us the passion, the love, the resources and the energy to continue the work he has called us to do. I believe we do see the harvest as Plentiful, Precious, Perishing, but have we forgotten that is must be a Priority. Thank you, Alabama South, for being Partners in the Harvest! Let’s make the Harvest a priority! Respectfully submitted, Nina S. Fuller NAZARENE YOUTH INTERNATIONAL PRESIDENT’S REPORT March 2, 2013 Dr. & Mrs. Mark Berry, Pastors, Youth Workers, Delegates, Council Members and Teens & Friends to this Convention. 68 WELCOME TO NYI Convention 2013!!

Last year at this time I talked to you about who we are. Who is this group of people called “Nazarenes”? A Living Faith What Nazarenes Believe addresses the Core Values of who we are. The Nazarene DNA, if you will. Our Mission is to make Christ like Disciples of all nations. That means, our, Cities, neighborhoods, regardless of color, race, or cultural. My prayer for your youth group this year has been that you have expanded your “world”. To enlarge who you invite to know Jesus. At this time, I want to take time to honor Local Youth Groups from the district. To bring attention to students and adults who were willing to go, to serve and to have a great time in fellowship!!

Youth Pastors, NYI Presidents, Volunteers. Mom & Dad, thank you for caring and serving! You are the “backbone” of Youth Ministry! Pastors, Youth Pastors NYI Leaders Do you know…..YOUR DISTRICT NYI NEEDS YOU and YOUR Local Church? NYI Council wants to encourage ALL churches and Youth Groups to be a part of ALL district events. I want to encourage NYI Presidents, Youth Pastors, and Pastors GET EXCITED ABOUT DISTRICT EVENTS!!! Your teens will be excited about what “YOU” are excited about!!! Take a few minutes & look over your local programming to look for conflicts in your scheduling of local Youth Activities with District Events. Students, as a Local & District Church we are very proud of you for being active in your school. Let all your coaches and teachers and other students Know that you are a Christian, and that you are a Nazarene!! Be up front with them that you may need to miss a practice, game or concert, something for Church. Delegates, you have been elected by your local NYI to represent them. What will you do with that responsibility? In your local elections did you pray before voting? Did you pray about what God wanted you to do…BEFORE THE ELECTION? Today, you will hold in your hand a ballot. As we vote for district leaders, pray for the person, student and adults that you vote for. Pray that God will give them, strength, wisdom, and the spirit of cooperation with each other. Hey while you’re at it, Pray for your local NYI President, Youth Pastor. They give up a lot and of themselves to help you. 70 Your vote is very important. With your vote YOU help make plans that concern, shape, and guide the district. With the first vote, You have already started making plans for the New Year. It is very important this year to elect good people. It may or may not be your friend who is on the ballot. It may or may not be the adult from your church that is on the ballot. Please don’t be like the church of Laodicea: Revelation 3:14-22 (The Message) 15 “I know you inside and out, and find little to my liking. You’re not cold, you’re not hot—far better to be either cold or hot! 16You’re stale. You’re stagnant. You make me want to vomit. 17You brag, ‘I’m rich, I’ve got it made, I need nothing from anyone,’ oblivious that in fact you’re a pitiful, blind beggar, threadbare and homeless. 18 “Here’s what I want you to do: Buy your gold from me, gold that’s been through the refiner’s fire. Then you’ll be rich. Buy your clothes from me, clothes designed in Heaven. You’ve gone around half-naked long enough. And buy medicine for your eyes from me so you can see, really see. 19 “The people I love, I call to account—prod and correct and guide so that they’ll live at their best. Up on your feet, then! About face! Run after God! 20 “Look at me. I stand at the door. I knock. If you hear me call and open the door, I’ll come right in and sit down to supper with you. 21Conquerors will sit alongside me at the head table, just as I, having conquered, took the place of honor at the side of my Father. That’s my gift to the conquerors! 22 “Are your ears awake? Listen. Listen to the Wind Words, the Spirit blowing through the churches.” How will this happen? Jesus has an answer for everything! Call up on Him and He will give you answers. First of all get out of the “Drivers Seat”. Let “Jesus Take the Wheel”. Matthew 16:24-26; The Message 24 Then Jesus went to work on his disciples. “Anyone who intends to come with me has to let me lead. You’re not in the driver’s seat; I am. Don’t run from suffering; embrace it. Follow me and I’ll show you how. 25Self-help is no help at all. Selfsacrifice is the way, my way, to finding yourself, your true self. 26What kind of deal is it to get everything you want but lose yourself? What could you ever trade your soul for? When you were first called to be a Christian, most of us had a few bad habits that God ask us to give up. Some had more the others, but we all had some. As new Christians, we were very happy to give up bad habits for God. Has God asked you for a sacrifice? You know, something that you like, love more than anything? Something that isn’t bad, not hurting your walk with Christ, but something God has asked you to give up for Him? Don’t forget to ask what God wants from you? Be prepared to give it all up? To stay in the center of God’s Will. We must be obedient to Him Dr. Berry, Thank you for your full support of NYI and all that you do for the Students across our district. Thanks to the staff at my church Pastor & Brenda, Kathy & Jerry Sanford. To my local NYI President, Mrs. Dee Taylor. Dee & Tony are always working hard fundraisers, going places, doing something, usually in the background, out of sight. To my Youth Volunteer Staff, Mom’s & Dad’s you are awesome! Thanks to Terri for all that she does to help me. May God Bless You All! Respectfully submitted, Bob Evans 71 B. DISTRICT BOARDS 1.

HOLLEY, Secretary Respectfully Submitted, MARK D. BERRY, Chairman 2. FINANCE/PASTORAL CARE COMMITTEE I. INTRODUCTION (MISSION AND STEWARDSHIP STATEMENT) 76 To fulfill the Great Commission, the Alabama South District Churches of the Nazarene exist to establish dynamic ministries that will bring glory to God and radically change the lives of those who believe. Our mission is to evangelize the unconverted, to disciple the converted, to build up the body of Christ, and to equip the saints for service. The collection of the Fair Share Fund and other assigned funds is essential to the success of our mission. Therefore, we, your Assembly Finance Committee, recommend that: 1. Each pastor and church board give careful attention to the Manual statement regarding Christian stewardship (part III.E. par38.), particularly stressing the Bible plan of storehouse tithing as the basis of supporting the church; that September be designated as Stewardship Month; that stewardship literature be distributed, appropriate sermons be preached, and the congregation of each church be challenged to make definite commitments regarding tithes and offerings, remembering Malachi 3:812. 2. Each pastor and church board study the total financial responsibility of the church at the beginning of each assembly year and set up a proposed local budget to include a plan for raising and distributing funds for all General, Education, and District obligations as well as for the operations of the church. 3. Each local church set a goal of being at least a Mission 10 Church (A church that gives 10 percent or more of church income less missions giving to the WEF and approved Missions Specials and that reaches giving goals for P&B, TNU and full district support). 4. The formula for calculation of the World Evangelism Fund, Pensions & Benefits and Education Ministries Funds be as set forth by establishment of “Funding the Mission” as recommended by the Board of General Superintendents and approved by the General Board and USA National Board. 5. All expenditures require prior approval by the governing body's board/council. This includes all district and local organizations. No one person, whether it be pastor/president/chairperson or anyone else has approval power to spend funds. 6. The use of a district/church credit card is a privilege and carries a very serious responsibility. The ability to charge on a credit card is equivalent to check writing. The person utilizing a district/church credit card must insure that the treasurer is consulted prior to any charges. The treasurer should insure that sufficient funds are available to repay the debt before the debt is made. Church board approval is required for anyone being issued a credit card under the church's responsibility including SDMI, NYI, NMI, etc. District Advisory Board approval is required for anyone being issued a credit card under the district's responsibility including SDMI, NYI, NMI, etc. The approving board is responsible for insuring proper use of the credit card. A credit card agreement is included as an addendum to this report. This agreement should be renewed at least annually. II. CALCULATION OF WEF 1. WEF obligation = (Income - Approved Mission Specials) X .05214 2. World Evangelism Fund will be calculated for Church Type Missions and New Start Churches in the same manner as II.1. above. 3. Each local church is encouraged to pay its World Evangelism Fund in full, using some or all of the following means: A. Thanksgiving Offering B. Easter Offering C. Prayer and Fasting Offering D. Faith Promise Offering 4. All World Evangelism monies are to be sent to: Global Treasury Services 77 P.O. Box 843116 Kansas City, MO 64184-3116 III. BASE FOR CALCULATIONS 1. The base for calculation of all other ministries funds to include Pensions & Benefits, Education and District Funds is as follows: Base = Income - WEF Paid - Approved Mission Specials 2. Income is any donation received by the church that qualifies as a charitable contribution. A charitable contribution is defined by IRS Publication 526 -- “A charitable contribution is a donation or gift to, or for the use of, a qualified organization (church). It is voluntary and is made without getting or expecting to get anything of equal value.” 3. Money received through fundraisers may not be church income if it does not qualify as a charitable contribution. Ex. - NYI selling donuts or other items which the donor receives goods or services in exchange for the gift. 4. For further definition and discussion, refer to the website www.fundingthemission.org. This website also contains a very helpful calculator for all ministry funds. IV. CALCULATION AND APPORTIONMENT OF FAIR SHARE FUND 1. Fair Share Fund = Base X 13.5% 2.

The “Alabama South Nazarene” be published six times a year. These will be mailed in bulk to each church for distribution. 2. Each church provide for the expenses of the pastor, department heads, and elected delegates to the District Assembly and the District Conventions and that the District provide for similar expenses for the District Superintendent and lay members of the District Advisory Board (provided their expenses are not paid by the local church). 3. Each church participate in the Nazarene Theological Seminary and Nazarene Bible College offerings at the designated times. A goal amount equal in dollars to the morning worship average attendance number for each of these. 4. The District Superintendent be granted 6 weeks annual paid vacation. 5. The district treasurer’s reimbursement policy for meals at district meetings be set for breakfast, lunch and dinner respectively at $8, $15 and $17 and mileage be paid at the government rate. 6. Every District Auxiliary should have books audited annually by the District Auditing Committee along with District Men’s Ministry, District Women’s Ministry, Prime Time Ministry, Lay Retreat, and Alabama Nazarene School of Ministry along with any other present district ministries, which receive and disburse funds. 7. Every District Auxiliary ministry treasurer give a detailed annual financial report to the District Superintendent and to their respective department president or chairman by March 15, 2014. These are to include District Men’s Ministry, District Women’s Ministry, Prime Time Ministry, Lay Retreat, and Alabama Nazarene School of Ministry along with any other present or future district ministries, which receive and disburse funds. In addition, a detailed budget request should be included for the District Finance Committee’s use in determining funding requirements for the coming year. 8. The Home Missions Board has at least three different categories for the allocation of Home Missions’ Share of funds received from the Fair Share Fund. The three categories are (1) Ministry Assistance, (2) Property Disposition, (3) Ministry Development. Ministry Development would include seminars, course of study, Alabama Nazarene School of Ministry. 9. Each church be encouraged to put ALCAP (Alabama Citizens Action Program) in their annual church budget or to receive an offering for the work of ALCAP. It is suggested that each church’s minimum goal be $1 for each person in average morning worship as reported in their previous year’s Pastor’s Annual Report. A copy of each church’s suggested goal will be listed at the end of this report. The churches may send their offering to: ALCAP 2376 Lakeside Drive, Birmingham, AL 35244. When offerings are sent directly to ALCAP it should be specified that it is from “Alabama South District” along with the name of the church. 10. Each General Assembly and Auxiliary Department General Convention Delegate is given a lump sum allowance. This money is intended to cover expenses while serving as delegate. For the delegate’s protection, a detailed accounting should be completed by the delegate as required by the IRS. Allowance in excess of the required expenses should be returned to the appropriate district treasurer. 11. Each auxiliary (SDMI, NYI and NMI) annually set aside sufficient funds to provide for their delegates’ expense to their respective general conventions and include a line item in their annual budget for this purpose. 80 VII. PASTORAL CARE GUIDELINES 1. Each church strives to employ its pastor on a full-time basis. 2. Our churches be guided in setting the lead pastor’s minimum cash salaries by the following formula: 20 percent of the amount raised for all purposes up to $100,000 plus 7 percent of the excess above $100,000. That each church board review the pastor’s salary at least once during the assembly year with an effort made to provide at least a cost-of-living raise. 3. The pastor be reimbursed for his total Social Security taxes, and that his family’s medical insurance premium be paid by the local church. 4. The full-time pastors be given a paid vacation each year according to the following schedule based on the years of ministerial service: 3 weeks for all pastors with less than 10 years of service, 4 weeks for pastors with 10 to 20 years of service, 5 week for pastors with 21 to 30 years of service, and 6 weeks for pastors with 31 or more years of service. We encourage the pastor to take the allotted vacation time allowed. Vacation is not to be cumulative which means the pastor cannot carry over vacation year to year. 5. The church board gives special consideration for extra time off due to special needs, crisis or unusual stress for the pastor and his family. 6. At least a week’s salary be given to the pastor and his family as a Christmas bonus. In addition, that each church observe in special ways the birthdays and anniversaries of the parsonage family. 7. Each church provides housing for their lead pastor. Realizing that a home is one element of retirement, we would encourage churches to adopt one of the following options: Option One: Establishment by the church board of a monthly housing allowance. The following should be included in calculating the housing allowance: 1. Mortgage payment 2. Homeowner’s insurance 3. Utilities 4. Property taxes Note: This must all be done in conformity with the IRS. Option Two: The church provides housing for their lead pastor in the form of a parsonage and utilities. When this option is selected, the church should pay into the pastor’s annuity/investment fund a minimum of $2,500 annually, more if possible, to offset loss of home equity. 8. Each church with a full-time pastor strive to set up a tax-sheltered annuity for its pastor to enhance his income at retirement. 9. Each church with a full-time pastor reimburse all reasonable professional expenses of the pastor as approved by the church board. It is vitally important at the beginning of each church year that the church board secretary and the church treasurer, thoroughly review Memo #4 (Strategies for Structuring Ministerial Compensation) and Memo #14 (Reimbursing Medical Expenses) from Pensions and Benefits USA in an effort to take full advantage of all tax relief offered by the Internal Revenue Service to ministers. 10. Each church board make advance plans to pay the expenses for their pastor and wife to the General Assembly. 11. Each local church pay the expenses of their pastor to PALCON, their pastor’s wife to WILCON, also expenses to Ministers’ and Mates’ Retreat, District Women’s Retreat, and District Men’s Retreat. 12. Each local church set aside a Pastor and Family Appreciation Day for their lead pastor and pastoral staff, that day being the second Sunday in October; and that the district office send a letter to each local church board secretary by August 15, reminding them of this special day. We encourage each church to pray and fast for their pastor and staff on a regular basis. 13. Each local church give the same financial consideration as specified above for pastors to other fulltime ministerial staff members (especially medical insurance). 81 14. Each local church allow their pastor at least one week per year for conducting a revival. 15. All churches are encouraged to pay their Fair Share Fund in full so that ministers of the Alabama South District may receive full benefit and full protection through the Department of Pensions and Benefits. 16. The local church plan well in advance for the evangelist’s remuneration sufficient to cover Social Security taxes, food, lodging, and travel expenses. Each church should send a minimum Christmas Gift of $50 to any evangelist used during that year. 17. That all lead pastors and pastoral staff be required to obtain a background check and complete training through NazSafe/MinistrySafe. Expenses that are incurred from background checks and training shall be reimbursed by the respective local church where the minister serves. A background check form can be obtained by contacting the district office. VIII. PASTORAL SABBATICAL Lead pastor or full-time pastoral staff needs to take a Sabbath rest to, among other things, prevent burn-out and provide time for reflection, leadership renewal, and spiritual growth. What is the need? In our culture, busyness is a badge of usefulness and exhaustion the proof of efficiency. In the midst of such a culture, the church of Jesus Christ must once again hear the call to Sabbath rest. The concept of Sabbath rest is a cyclical season of renewal for the minister and the ministry that is modeled by God following creation and by Jesus as he took his disciples on retreat following intense times of mission. Keeping the Sabbath is not about increased productivity, but rather about the sacredness of the gift of our time to God. Said in a different way, a holy motivation for keeping the Sabbath is not so that we can be more productive in the remaining six days of the week. The purest motivation for the Sabbath is to offer one’s self to God – to cease from the business of work/productivity. Research has shown that the sabbatical did one thing for more than 70 percent of the pastors – It renewed their call to ministry. The pastors felt more connected to God and stronger in spirit. If we are not careful on this point, the Sabbath becomes merely a component of the “productivity” of the rest of the week. The Genesis creation model of Sabbath indicates that God rested on the seventh day and made it holy. There is a biblical pattern of sevens, including the OT plan for a Jubilee year, which was to occur at the seventh cycle of seven years. (Hebrews 4:9; Exodus 16:23; Lev. 23:3; Luke 23:56). The following are six pre-cursors to burnout: (1) work overload and fatigue; (2) lack of job reward/satisfaction; (3) lack of community; (4) lack of control over your own destiny; (5) value conflict; and (6) lack of fairness. Usually when more than 2 or 3 of these precursors are felt strongly burnout is just around the corner. Hands down, Nazarene pastors identified Work Overload and Fatigue as the precursor most strongly experienced. Sabbaticals help renew call to ministry, & strengthen the pastor’s family. Sabbaticals purpose should include the notion of a “break from routine demands of ministry. ”Sabbath rest is a time to receive, to be nurtured, to dig deeper into oneself, into one's relationship with God. As our model for ministry, Jesus Christ frequently found Sabbath rest. There is nothing that will put an end to effective pastoral leadership more quickly than a loss of perspective. Perspective is gained, maintained, and sharpened in the reflective process known as Sabbath rest. Sabbath rest finds its purpose in: (1) Professional and vocational renewal; (2) Call and career assessment and revitalization; (3) The renewing of the vision of/for ministry. The sabbatical process should begin early in the life of a minister. Sabbaticals should be a key component of ministry from the very beginning. 82 The benefits of the sabbatical for the pastoral staff member and congregation are to: (1) Express gratitude and high value to the pastoral staff member. (2) Share in the building of the pastor for continued service. (3) Strengthen the relationship between pastor & congregation. For the church, recognition of God’s call to Sabbath rest is a ready and honest admission that there is not an inexhaustible supply of adequate pastoral leadership. (4) To better connect with God for a more vibrant Christian walk and Spirit filled ministry. Why? Therefore, recognizing the normal routines often do not provide for reflection and renewal of the vision and mission of the pastor's ministry, we recommend that the congregation provide a sabbatical for the pastoral staff. Who is eligible? The following two conditions must be met. First, be a lead pastor, full-time pastoral staff member or district superintendent. (Note: Lead pastor and full-time staff members are eligible whether they are ordained or not.) Second, be in full-time ministry for seven consecutive years. When are they eligible? After they have been with their current congregation for five consecutive years, and every seventh year thereafter. Duration of the sabbatical? The sabbatical should be a minimum of four to seven weeks and the total length is to be determined by the church board. How will timing be set? The timing of the sabbatical leave shall take into consideration the needs of the congregation, the scheduling needs from the pastor's proposal, and other pertinent concerns as may be established. How does the sabbatical leave relate to vacation, etc.? During the year of the sabbatical, time ordinarily allotted for continuing education will not be reduced. Vacation time will not be reduced because of the sabbatical leave, nor will it be used to extend the sabbatical period. What will the pastor's remuneration be during the sabbatical? The financial support of the pastor during the sabbatical period will include full salary and retirement benefits, insurance and Social Security and travel and entertainment allowance. A stipend will also be provided, with the amount to be determined by the board. Process Guidelines: It is suggested that the pastor shall submit his/her request for sabbatical leave to the church board 12 months in advance. The church board is encouraged to initiate the sabbatical process. A written plan for sabbatical shall be developed by the candidate in consultation with the District Superintendent and presented to the church board at least six months prior to the beginning of the desired sabbatical. The plan shall include the expectations of the leave, focus of the leave, travel plans, and a listing of the church tasks to be cared for in the absence of the pastor. 83 Any additional hiring of personnel due to the pastoral sabbatical will be decided on and arranged for prior to the sabbatical departure of the pastor. No two members of the pastoral staff may be on sabbatical leave at the same time. Upon return from sabbatical leave, the pastor shall first meet with the local board before reentering his duties of ministry. A date shall be scheduled for this meeting prior to the commencement of the sabbatical leave. The purpose of the meeting shall be twofold. First, the board will inform the pastor of all issues that have arisen in his absence, bring him up to date on all activities, and discuss the effect the sabbatical has had on the church. Second, the pastor may in turn give a brief oral report to the board on his activities and what he feels transpired with regard to carrying out the goals of the sabbatical. The pastor will prepare a written report approximately six months after he or she returns. The report will include an evaluation of the sabbatical leave in terms of ministerial and congregational impact. The report will be presented to the church board. A copy of each of the reviews will also be forwarded to the district superintendent for his information and review, along with a copy of the evaluations. Sabbath Rest Planning and Preparation. We recommend the following as steps of planning and preparation for the pastor, prior to the Sabbath rest. Allow six months to plan the Sabbath rest. Develop a plan in which the church board agrees in consultation with the District Superintendent. Timing is vital. "There's a time to work, and there's a time to rest". Use a consultant or mentor to help/assist you in: planning--objectively and evaluating-objectively. Search out program resources. Ask for congregational and church board input for the development of your plan. Organize your financial arrangements. Extra expense may be incurred during Sabbath rest. Plan to keep a daily journal. Make travel plans that will remove you from your normal routine. Ask yourself the following: What do I want to happen to me personally? How do I want the Sabbath rest to affect my family/spouse? How would I like the congregation to benefit? Hope builds on the dreams that God reawakens in us. As we walk in pilgrimage with Him, He renews us to lead again the people committed to our charge. Additional information on planning for sabbaticals may be obtained at the following website: www.nazarenepastor.org or refer to the Manual statement on sabbaticals.

SUNDAY SCHOOL AND DISCIPLESHIP MINISTRIES INTERNATIONAL (SDMI) CONVENTION Wednesday Afternoon, April 24, 2013 Pre SDMI Convention singing was led by Laura Minton. Welcome by the SDMI Chairman - Mitchell Powell. Our chairman called the host pastor Carl Reed to the platform to pray and open the SDMI Convention. The convention was then organized by Brian Aaron, sitting in for his wife Melissa Aaron, SDMI Secretary, who was ill. The pages, recording secretary, and board of tellers were announced and the voting area was set. Brian made a motion to receive the adoption of the above organization. There was a second and the motion carried unanimously. Dr. Berry, district superintendent, welcomed Rev. Mitchell Powell, SDMI chairman, to the platform to give his first report. During his report, the SDMI chairman gave out several awards for excellence in Sunday School. He reminded the assembly that whether we receive an award or not, Sunday School is the reaching arm of the church and needs to be supported and continued no matter what. Chairman Powell also encouraged us to attend the retreats available on the district. He also reminded us of the importance of quizzing, both for kids and teens. He emphasized the outreach ministry of VBS and invited each church to continue, or begin if necessary, VBS - which could mean the difference in eternity for a child. Rev. Dr. Mark Berry, District Superintendent, asked for the approval of the report as given with a hearty AMEN from the delegates and assembly. The report was accepted. Board of Tellers #1 was called to distribute the YES/NO ballot for the Sunday School Chairman. Dr. Berry prayed and the voting was done. Ballots were collected and Board of Tellers #1 was dismissed to tally the ballots. Rev. Powell invited the SDMI treasurer, Rev. Carl Reed, to the platform to give the annual treasurers report. Rev. Reed also presented honorariums to the SDMI Secretary, Melissa Aaron. Brian Aaron accepted the gift on behalf of his wife. An honorarium was given to Rev. Mitchell Powell. Then, Rev. Powell called Carl Reed back to the platform and honored him with a token of appreciation. There was a motion and a second to accept the report for the SDMI treasurer. The motion passed unanimously. Dr. Berry then gave a plug for Nazarene Safe. The method chosen by the District to ensure that our children and teens are safe by background checking, and training, our adult workers. The whole idea is 89 that our Nazarene Churches are really "safe havens" for children and teens. Questions regarding Naz Safe can be directed to Jeff and Lisa Skinner. Dr. Berry also brought our attention to TEAM DAY. Dr. Mark Lail will be the speaker for Team Day August 10th 2013. There will be several speakers and workshops to choose from. He encouraged us to get it on the calendar and get a team of people ready to attend. Report from Board of Tellers #1 was read by Brian Aaron, acting SDMI secretary. Votes cast 131. Yes - 125 No 6 Board of tellers #2 was called to pass out the ballot for Sunday School Committee Member at Large. The names of the nominees were read and after the adoption of the ballots they were distributed and collected. The board of tellers #2 was dismissed to count the ballots. The ushers were called to take an offering to defray the costs of convention. Brian Aaron offered prayer and the offering was received. Caleb Strickland was then called to the platform to give the report of the Adult Sunday School Ministry Director. He called the adult department heads to the platform. Mr. and Mrs. Jimmy Horton gave the report for Laymen's retreat. They announced the dates for next year April 11 - 13, 2014. The speaker will be Kevin Ulmet, Pastor of Nashville First Church. It will be at Shocco Springs in Talladega. It will be a combined retreat with Alabama North and South Districts. Next, Mrs. Thelma Patrick came to the platform to give the report of the Ladies Ministry of Alabama South. March 14 - 16th 2014 will be next year's date. It will be the "Silver Anniversary." Special things will be in store. The theme this year was "Living the Heart of Jesus." Thelma encouraged all the ladies to help out by doing just that. Ronda Williams came to the platform to give the report of the Single Adult Ministries. She let us know that the prayer line was active Monday Nights at 9 PM Central time. She shared the many answers to prayer that have been experienced. The direction of the singles adult ministries has a new focus and a new direction. The New Name for Singles Ministry is Bridges. This year the Singles Retreat will be partnering with the Lay Retreat to have a combined retreat. Danny and Martha Curtis came to the platform next and represented the Alabama South Prime Timer's Retreat. Danny reported that the retreat was great for 2012. Looking ahead to 2013 the retreat will be September 20 - 22, 2013, with speaker Dr. Philip Sessions. Gerald Brumbeloe was next representing the Alabama South District Men's Ministry. He spoke from his heart saying that he feels we should have no less than 50 men present at next year's retreat. Gerald has stepped down as the men's ministry director, and asked that anyone who is interested in filling this position should contact Caleb Strickland or Rev. Mitchell Powell. Caleb Strickland concluded the reports by asking everyone to support the retreats and encourage someone else to do the same. Jeffrey Woods was then called to the platform by the SDMI chairman to give the Children's Ministry Report. He reported on a successful Heavenly Star Search, 85 kids involved. He thanked Christy Sessions for an AWESOME Children's Camp with 211 children present. Thirteen children gave their life to the Lord!

Jeffrey Woods concluded the reports by reminding us that no children's program is successful without lots of adult help. Please be involved. The meetings were convened with the installation of the members of the SDMI council and auxilliary committees by District Superintendent Dr. Mark Berry. Rev. Mitchell Powell dismissed us to our various ways and reminded us to be back at 7:00 PM for the opening service of the Alabama South District Assembly and Ordination Service.

Rev. and Mrs. Heap, missionaries to Brazil, South America were the convention speakers. The convention theme was “Partners in the Harvest”. At 6:55 pm a video of local and district NMI activities during the year was shown. Mrs. Nina Fuller welcomed everyone and Rev. Larry Spraker opened with prayer. Dr. Skinner gave instructions about ordering supplies and books from Nazarene Publishing House. She has prepared a district CD with information for the local presidents including a monthly emphasis that goes along with Living Mission. The order received tonight will be filled after the service and ready for pick up in the morning. Convention music was led by Dane and Margaret Harris and the Millbrook Praise Team. They led “Let Your Anointing Fill This Place” and “I’m on the Battlefield for my Lord”. Rev. Ken Wyatt presented the totals for this year’s Children’s Project in Judy Wyatt’s absence. A total of $16,691.16 was raised to complete the North District Center in Guyana where the Pastors’ WW team took the Jesus Film last year. The top five churches receiving trophies for their giving are as follows: 5thShawmut - $1178.63; 4th - Tuscaloosa Holten Heights - $1265.00; 3rd - Lanett -$1367.00; 2nd - Landmark -$3174.00; 1st- Montgomery First $5597.18. The Children’s Missions Rally was held on Oct 20, 2012 with Gary & Penny from Zambia, Africa. The 2013 Children’s Project is to purchase a boat for the Amazon River Basin in Brazil. It will be used to take evangelists, the JESUS Film, doctors and dentists along the rivers of the Amazon River basins. The cost will be about $12,000. The 2013 Children’s Mission Rally will be held at Millbrook Church on October 19, 2013. Lisa, missionary from Thailand will be speaking. Mrs. Fuller introduced Mr. Andrew Minton from Heavenly Star Search who sang “You’re Alive”. Dr. Mark Berry welcomed the convention delegates and recognized all pastors. He recognized delegates attending NMI Convention for the first time. Special recognition was given to Dr. and Mrs. Phillip Sessions, Rev. and Mrs. Leon Patrick, Dr. Phil Fuller, DS from the Virginia District, and Dr. Roy Fuller, Superintendent Emeritus. Special recognition was given to his wife, Mrs. Debi Berry. The ushers received an offering for NMI with Dr. Phil Fuller asked God’s blessing on the offering. 91 The praise team sang “I Thank You Jesus”, “There is a River” and “I Love Jesus”. Mrs. Fuller recognized Rev. Freddy Williams who is collecting eyeglasses for Haiti. A container is in the foyer for collection. Mrs. Fuller introduced our convention speakers, Rev. and Mrs. Heap. The Heaps were assigned to Brazil in 1973 where they have served in several capacities: as seminary professors; pioneers of churches; and for 23 years as field director. Their present roles involve clergy development; resource development and teacher. They have served in Brazil during a period when the evangelical church has grown rapidly. The Heaps spoke after the Praise Team led in worship. Mrs. Heap shared a short story about a mission trip by bus thru Argentina, Paraguay and Uruguay. She stressed that we are all partners in the harvest. Rev. Heap shared background information of his parents who were missionaries in Brazil when persecution of the church was going strong. He told of how the mobs persecuted the new believers and how one who was cut and bleeding said, “I’m not worthy to bleed for Jesus”. Today there are over 120,000 Nazarenes in Brazil because of the pioneers who planted the seed and because of those who watered the seed. He encouraged us that everything we are doing in our local church is for the Lord of the Church, Jesus Christ. Rev. Heap thanked Alabama South for being involved in sharing the gospel and encouraged us not to give up. He asked that the Lord bless us on our mission field and that we find joy in spreading the gospel around the world. He said that on Wednesday they would be sharing stories of people who have been saved because of people like us who have sent missionaries. Mrs. Fuller encouraged all by saying, “If you have ever given to World Evangelism Fellowship Fund or to Alabaster, you are partners in the harvest. Let’s keep on being partners with the people in Brazil and people around the world.” Rev. Phil Fuller dismissed the service with prayer. Wednesday Morning, April 24, 2013 The Alabama South District NMI Convention convened on Wednesday, April 24, 2013 at 8:00 am at the Millbrook Church of the Nazarene. The theme for this year’s convention is “Partners in the Harvest”. A DVD of “Worthy is the Lamb” by the Brooklyn Tabernacle Choir was played to bring us into worship. Mrs. Fuller called on Rev. Alan Cook to open with prayer. Rachel Underwood sang “Everybody Ought to Know”. Mrs. Heap shared with us an incident that happened a year ago in Capinas: the youth leader presented a decal for cars “In the Hands of God” but his idea was turned down by the senior pastor. When the youth leader left the office, he placed the decal on the pastor’s car without the pastor’s knowledge. The pastor was followed by someone who wanted one of the decals. Today in Capinas, you can’t go one block without seeing a car having that decal. She reminded us that “Whatever is happening in your life today, remember everything is in the hands of God. We must keep everything in God’s hands and all will come out victorious every time.” Mrs. Fuller reminded the churches to complete the NPH supply order as soon as possible. She called on Jimmy Horton, District Treasurer, for an announcement He reminded us that the Easter Offering is not a Missions Special, but rather part of the World Evangelism Fund. Mrs. Fuller called to order the 30th Alabama South District NMI. Because the district president and district council were elected last year for a two year term, the voting area was not set. Donna Angerbrandt presented a motion to name the convention personnel as: Recording Secretary – Diane Thompson; Parliamentarian - Roy Fuller; Journal Reading Committee – Debi Berry and Amanda Young. Mrs. Fuller announced special greetings from Global NMI Director, Dr. Daniel Ketchum; and Global NMI President, Jennifer Brown. A DVD from Dr. Ketchum was shown and Rev. Lance Conn read greetings from Jennifer Brown. Mrs. Fuller asked that we send greetings to these people and to Glenda 92 Martin who is undergoing treatments. This is the first time she has missed in 40 plus years. Also, greetings will be sent to Beckie Shackelford, who is with her daughter for emergency surgery. We will also pray for them. Dr. Berry presented Mrs. Nina Fuller to give the NMI President’s Report. (See copy of report) A standing ovation of approval was given for Mrs. Fuller’s report. Dr. Berry accepted the approval and called upon Donna Angerbrandt to come forward to make presentations. She gave special words of thanks and appreciation to Dr. and Mrs. Fuller with a special gift. Mrs. Debi Berry, our First Lady, was escorted to the platform to receive a special gift of appreciation for serving as District NMI Vice President. Donna called Rev. and Mrs. Heap to the platform to receive a special gift of appreciation for being our convention speakers. Mrs. Fuller called Donna and Diane to the platform for special presentations. With extra time to spare, Mrs. Fuller called Mrs. Heap to the platform to share a special story with us. She recalled a time they were introduced as the missionary family that used to be hippies and the type of life they used to live but the grace of God had transformed their lives and he presented the Stevens family, the new missionaries. Steve added they were also driving a Volkswagen van. Mrs. Fuller’s son, Dr. Phil Fuller shared with us from the Virginia District. Mrs. Fuller dismissed the convention for a short break; all should return promptly by 9:30. At 9:30 a video “The Harvest” was shown to re-assemble the delegates. Mrs. Fuller thanked the Spencer Church for preparing the snacks. Mrs. Fuller called upon Lisa Skinner, Missions Education Director, for her report. 3743 books were read across the district. The award for the Large Church Group reading the largest percentage went to Tuscaloosa Holten Heights by reading 180% of their goal. The award for the Small Church Group went to Calvert for reading 320% of their goal. In the President’s Packet, is a CD with everything the local presidents need to know for the upcoming year. She encouraged us to embrace technology as we present missions to our churches, especially with the children. She said as we read the books let us be reminded that we are a part of a larger group, a bigger family. Lisa offered her services during the summer to assist in any way needed to promote the reading books. She encouraged people who have older missionary books to share with churches who can’t afford to purchase the new books. The point of missions is to equip us on our walk with Christ and to make a difference with the people with whom we come in contact. Mrs. Fuller called upon Diane Thompson to present the treasurer’s report. A round of applause was given after the report was presented (See copy of report) Debi Berry was called to present the NMI Distinguished Service Award as a tribute to a person for their service in the area of missions and this person was Bob Evans of the Tuscaloosa Holten Heights Church. A letter of appreciation from Rev. Bill Holley for Bob’s ministry was read. Bob came forward to receive the award and to express his thanks. Debi Berry also explained the purpose of The Memorial Roll which was established in 1919 as a way to honor deceased loved ones. Giving to the Memorial Roll Certificate is another way the church can participate in supporting missionary health care. Alabama South Churches paid tribute to forty-six deceased loved ones this past year. These names have been placed on the permanent Memorial Roll in Lenexa, Kansas. The names were read by Brett Medley as they were shown on the overhead. Prayer was given for the families and the memory of all of these loved ones. Mrs. Fuller called on Dot Brumbeloe to give a news flash about hosting a missionary for deputation. Lisa from Thailand will be on the district in October 2013. Cynthia from Argentina will be on the district in January 2014. Mrs. Fuller called on Donna Angerbrandt to give the LINKS report in Beckie Shackelford’s absence. Donna reported that each church would find a red booklet in packet with the LINKS assignments and assessments. She encouraged all churches to participate by sending cards and notes. She reported that only 50% or Alabama South churches actually participate in LINKS. She asked Mrs. Heap to share what 93 LINKS means to the missionary. Brenda shared that LINKS is very important to them. She said that Brazilian culture is very relational and asked the question, “Can you build a good relationship if you don’t know the missionaries?” She said it helps the missionary feel more secure; it’s not just the money, but the bond that is developed. Participating in LINKS will cause you to pray more for the missionaries. Brenda encouraged every church to support the LINKS program because the missionaries need to know you are interested in what is happening to their lives. Mrs. Fuller announced that Lisa Skinner had prepared a video of our youth in missions but it wasn’t working properly. Lisa shared briefly and encouraged the churches to share what their teens are doing in the line of missions and to send pictures. She shared that Alabama South has some awesome teens whose lives have been changed by going on mission trips. Mrs. Fuller called upon June Jarrell to report on the Work & Witness trips to Honduras and Cuba. June reported that it had been an exciting year. In Haiti, we were able to complete the roof on the school. God has blessed abundantly by helping us achieve things that were humanly impossible. On Team Day we collected 350 pounds of school supplies to be taken to the Dominican Republic. The supplies were distributed to ten centers plus the seminary in Dominican Republic. The center in San Juan is teaching life skills and the Bible is part of their curriculum. Spencer Church donated 144 Spanish Bibles for the school in Dominican Republic. A Work & Witness Team went to Honduras to build the second floor Ulola Church of the Nazarene, Sunday School rooms and an apartment for the pastor. Beanie babies were given to every child and the adults. The team members were thrilled to see what the pastor was doing in the Honduras. Last summer we became aware that Cuba was opened to the Church of the Nazarene. AL South decided to have a part in this – the call went out that money was needed for a trip to Cuba and God provided the funds. On April 1st Alabama South sent a Work & Witness team to Cuba which has been closed since 1960. Bob Prescott assisted in leading the team since he grew up there. June reported the trip was difficult at times but God was with them and they experienced spirit filled times while there. They met several pastors and went to the end of the island. The pastor prayed for the team and heaven came down and glory filled their souls. They visited the recently retired District Superintendent’s home who shared with the team that he had planted 19 new churches and he will continue to work there even though they are at risk for being persecuted because of their faith. June shared that a non-Nazarene church has given $10,000 for a trip to the Dominican Republic. God is blessing and will bring it to completion for the salvation of these children. A second project is the Guyana project. She thanked the children who raised money for this project. She asked that all pray, give and go. She placed pictures are in the packet to share with the churches. June thanked the churches for the prayers during the time they were in Cuba. They were protected and had a wonderful time. Certificates were given to those who participated in this project: Charles and Glenda Martin; Lillian Heller; Serena Terry; Reba Tucker; Mike Wilcox; and Freddy Williams. Mrs. Fuller commented that “June Jarrell makes Work & Witness rock as the young people would say”. Mrs. Fuller called for a special song by Patty Wilcox and Judy McLaney. They sang “Lord of the Harvest”. Rev. Heap shared the message after putting a plug in for Deputation, Work and Witness and Mission Aviation. He encouraged churches to keep their kids in church for mission speakers because most missionaries receive their call before 13 years of age. Rev. Heap began by stating, “Jesus Christ began his ministry by standing and reading the gospel. What is our mission today? To continue the ministry of Jesus Christ: that’s what Jesus Christ is asking of us: To preach, teach, heal, and to set the captive free.” He shared a story of how the Lord is keeping the mission of the Lord going. “The church exists today to announce that Jesus Christ came to set the prisoner free and if he has set you free, then you shall be free indeed. Maybe now the bondage is a different kind of bondage. Bondage to drugs, styles of life and yet the Holy Spirit through the church is setting people free.” “ In looking at 94 tapestries – someone did that. All of the threads go together: all the honor and glory isn’t for the person who made it, but in the church all of the honor and glory is for the Lord Jesus Christ. A contribution here and one there, and one day you and I will be standing before the master and we will say, ‘Ah now, I see it’. It is the Lord of the church: all glory and all honor goes to him. The last chapter of the Bible says we will all gather before him and say all honor and glory and majesty be to the one who gave his life for us. Therefore all that I have, all that I am, I give back to him and find great joy and fulfillment in doing his will.” Prayer. “Oh Lord Jesus, give us those moments when in a small way we’re able to see what you are doing. We are very quick to pick up on the circumstances all around us. We are very quick to pick up on when people hurt us or disappoint us. Help us see the big picture of what God is doing. Help us to believe that it is your church, not our little church and that you are building your church around the world and what really is important is that it will be all to the honor and glory of the church of the Lord Jesus Christ. Take what we have offered to you these days at District Assembly and when we get back to our churches and the band stops playing that we will be reminded that God is walking with us. Be with that pastor and pastor’s wife and Sunday School teacher, that youth leader that are building your church. We have the privilege of letting you use our lives for your honor and glory. Amen.” Mrs. Fuller thanked Steve and Brenda for coming and letting God use them this week. She expressed appreciation and stated that we will not be the same because they came. This concludes our NMI Convention. Respectfully Submitted, DIANE THOMPSON NMI Recording Secretary DONNA ANGERBRANDT NMI Secretary NINA FULLER NMI President C.

NOTES TO FINANCIAL STATEMENTS February 28, 2013 $ 2,143,210 $2,344,146 NOTE A - SUMMARY OF SIGNIFICANT ACCOUNTING POLICIES Cash Basis of Accounting The Church's accounts are maintained, and these statements are presented, on a modified cash basis of accounting under which only revenues collected, costs and expenses paid, assets and fund balances arising from cash transactions. Therefore, accrued income and expenses, payables, deferred expenses, depreciation and other assets which may be material in amount are not reflected; and the financial statement is not intended to present the results of operations and financial position in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. Fund Accounting To ensure observance of limitations and restrictions placed on the use of resources available to the Church, the accounts of the Church are maintained in accordance with the principles of fund accounting. This is the procedure by which resources for various purposes are classified for accounting and reporting purposes into funds established according to their nature and purposes. Separate accounts are maintained for each fund; however, in the accompanying financial statement, funds that have similar characteristics have been combined into fund groups. Accordingly, all financial transactions have been recorded and reported by fund group. Income Tax Status Because the Church is exempt from federal and state income taxes, there is no provision for income taxes in the accompanying statements. Since the RV Park has been incorporated there may be some liability for income taxes on this entity. The Camp Accountants should make provision for this in their reports.

STATEMENT OF ASSETS, LIABILITIES AND FUND BALANCES CASH BASIS February 28, 2013 Audit Committee Report District Superintendent Alabama South District Church of the Nazarene We have examined the statements of cash receipts and disbursements of the various funds of the Alabama South District Church of the Nazarene with the exception of the District Camp. The District Camp is audited, or reviewed, by the firm American Tax & Accounting Associates; their reports are included on Pages 8, 9 and 10. All statements, with the exception of the District Camp, are for the year ended February 28, 2013. The District Camp Statement is for twelve months ended December 31, 2012. Since the North and South Districts have different fiscal year endings, and both districts share the camp responsibilities, the District Camp was put on a calendar basis. We conducted our review in accordance with generally accepted auditing standards. Those standards require that we plan and perform the review to obtain reasonable assurance about whether the cash receipts and disbursements statements are free of material misstatement. Our review includes examining, on a test basis, evidence supporting the amounts and disclosures in the cash receipts and disbursements statements. We believe that our review provides a reasonable basis for our opinion. These cash receipts and disbursements statements were prepared on the cash basis of accounting and are not intended to be presented in conformity with generally accepted accounting principles. In our opinion, the cash receipts and disbursements statements referred to above present fairly, in all material respects, the cash receipts and disbursements of The Alabama South District Church of the Nazarene for the year ended February 28, 2013.
