Annual conferences are listed by jurisdiction or central conference. By United Methodist News Service When United Methodists gather in Pittsburgh next year for their top legislative assembly, their number will include more delegates from outside the United States than ever before. Just as the U.S. Congress redistricts every 10 years in the wake of the national census, the number of lay and clergy delegates to the United Methodist’s highest legislative assembly, the General Conference, changes to keep total representation at 1,000 or less. This time, the changes also reflect an alteration in the determining formula, due to legislative action of the 2000 General Conference. The biggest shift is an increased representation of the central conferences, the church’s regional units outside the United States. The total number of delegates these conferences will elect for 2004 is 184, an increase of 32 since the 2000 gathering in Cleveland. And because the church’s constitution requires equal numbers of clergy and laity, there will be 92 of each from the central conferences. The General Conference meets every four years. During the two-week assembly, the delegates revise the church’s

    Extractions: " Why Does the Lutheran Communion of Churches Gather in Assembly?" Dear Sisters and Brothers, You may ask, “Why do we need to bring people from around the world to meet together in an Assembly?” Reasons are prescribed in the LWF Constitution, such as electing officers and Council members and acting on reports. Business conducted at the LWF Tenth Assembly will be important in determining future leadership and directions for the Federation’s work. But beyond these requisite constitutional matters lie some deeply theological and missiological reasons. The church (ecclesia)—as the people of God, the body of Christ, and the temple of the Holy Spirit—is by nature an ‘assembly.’ The LWF Assembly enables churches to worship, witness, confer and speak together on matters common to the whole church, and to express their unity as part of the one, universal, new community in Christ. Whenever and wherever we gather in local congregations to hear the Word and celebrate the Sacraments we are reminded that we do so as part of the communion of saints worldwide.

    Extractions: Avoid Military Action Against Iraq (WASHINGTON, DC, September 12, 2002) Heads of many U.S. Protestant and Orthodox churches and organizations and leaders of Roman Catholic religious orders today announced opposition to U.S. military action against Iraq. In a letter to President Bush, the church leaders acknowledged that "Mr. Hussein poses a threat to his neighbors and to his own people, [but] we nevertheless believe it is wrong, as well as detrimental to U.S. interests" to launch an attack on Iraq. The letter, convened by a national coalition named Churches for Middle East Peace, stated, "We oppose on moral grounds the United States taking further military action against Iraq now." Citing the probable humanitarian consequences, civilian casualties, and the chaotic political aftermath of such a war, the church leaders noted that U.S. military force could easily destabilize the region with possible catastrophic results and further increase anti-American sentiment in the Middle East and Gulf. The Rev. Dr. Bob Edgar, General Secretary of the National Council of Churches, a joint ministry of 36 Protestant and Orthodox churches, stated, "We do not need to march down the path to Armageddon. Pre-emptive military action now being contemplated by the Administration cannot be morally justified." Edgar, a former six-term Member of the U.S. Congress, said, "Among other consequences, consider that a pre-emptive strike by the U.S. presents to the world a model of aggression that may encourage other nations to attack neighboring countries that threaten them."

    Extractions: Freedom to follow Christ without hindrance or opposition from church courts, conferences or councils. Each local church is independent, though all in their freedom seek to work together. Each church has the right and duty of full participation in decision-making. All are encouraged to fit themselves for this responsibility through Bible study, prayer and worship. Our members hold to the biblical doctrines which mark and conserve evangelical Christianity. Our simplicity enables us to adapt to the needs of a changing world. More importantly, we believe our simple faith in Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, on which our churchmanship centers, provides the basis on which Christians of all traditions can unite in worship and service. It demands neither uniformity, nor the dreary constitution of organic union. We are sure we have a unique contribution to make to Christian unity.

    Extractions: Accra, Ghana : July 30 to August 13 2004 In a world where many struggle to survive, our faith in Jesus Christ asks what life in fullness means and what life in fullness for all requires. The promise of life calls us to renew our covenant as a family of churches, our mission among God's people and our spiritual life as Reformed congregations. Towards the end of July 2004, delegations from over 200 Congregational, Presbyterian, Reformed, and United churches in more than 100 countries will gather in Accra, Ghana, to bear witness to their common faith in the lordship of Jesus Christ. The 24th general council of the World Alliance of Reformed Churches will be a celebration of life and faith at the start of a new century. Guided by the theme "That All may have Life in Fullness" (John 10.10), participants will reflect on the threats and challenges to life while seeking God's will for our response.

    Extractions: Receiving the report of the Standing Committee for International Affairs and Human Rights, September 17, the Council asked the LWF General Secretary, Rev. Dr. Ishmael Noko, to work with Lutheran churches in reflecting the priorities of the UN special session - promoting healthy lives and quality education, combating HIV/AIDS and protecting against abuse, exploitation and violence - and in “interpreting the Convention of the Rights of the Child from a theological and ethical perspective.” The Council called upon the two remaining governments that have not ratified the Convention (the United States of America and Somalia) to do so. In light of the findings of an LWF mission to Mauritania in January 2002 to examine the issue of female genital mutilation, the Council asked the General Secretary, LWF member churches, ecumenical partners and related agencies to take active measures to address the issue of female genital mutilation in all affected countries. The Council called for awareness raising and education in relation to relevant health and human rights issues. Appreciation was made for Council’s action on this issue, and emphasis was also made on the need to provide alternatives including income-generating and ritual-substituting activities for traditional practitioners of circumcision.

    Extractions: What is the United Church of Christ? The United Church of Christ came into being in 1957 with the union of two Protestant denominations: the Evangelical and Reformed Church and the Congregational Christian Churches. Each of these was, in turn, the result of a union of two earlier traditions. The Congregational Churches were organized when the Pilgrims of Plymouth Plantation (1620) and the Puritans of the Massachusetts Bay Colony (1629) acknowledged their essential unity in the Cambridge Platform of 1648. The Reformed Church in the United States traced its beginnings to congregations of German settlers in Pennsylvania founded from 1725 on. Later, its ranks were swelled by Reformed immigrants from Switzerland, Hungary and other countries. The Christian Churches sprang up in the late 1700s and early 1800s in reaction to the theological and organizational rigidity of the Methodist, Presbyterian and Baptist churches of the time. The Evangelical Synod of North America traced its beginnings to an association of German Evangelical pastors in Missouri. This association, founded in 1841, reflected the 1817 union of Lutheran and Reformed churches in Germany.

    Extractions: "I told Islamic leaders they should thank the churches and Christians in Europe and the US for their stand on military violence against a Muslim country," said the foreign minister of Pakistan, Mr Mehmood Kasuri, to World Council of Churches (WCC) general secretary Rev. Dr Konrad Raiser during a March 8 meeting between the ecumenical leader and Pakistan government officials. Raiser met with the president of Pakistan, General Pervaiz Musharraf, the prime minister, Mir ZafarUllah Jamali, and Mr Kasuri, who agreed with Raiser that, despite what some media are saying, the conflict around Iraq cannot be considered a clash of civilizations. The meeting took place on the Islamabad leg of a three-day visit (7-9 March) to Pakistan; the visit was the last stage of a four-nation Asian tour. During meetings with church leaders and representatives of Pakistan's Christian community, Raiser heard about their fears of possible backlash in case of war against Iraq. The Christian community is worried that military strikes in Iraq could lead to renewed attacks against local Christians, hospitals, schools and other institutions. Christian leaders also complained about a general trend towards intolerance and discrimination in the country.

    Extractions: An ecumenical team at the 28 January-8 February meeting of the preparatory committee for the World Summit on Sustainable Development called attention to the priority of sustainable communities. In spotlighting the human dimension, team members built on a tradition of ecumenical thought about international affairs, including the declaration of the World Council of Churches' (WCC) Harare assembly that the dangers in current patterns of globalization should be countered with a focus on "just and sustainable communities”. This means economic advance that benefits and empowers all, not just an already-powerful minority. Team members came from diverse regions and religious communities, including Hindu and Shinto, and brought individual interests in specific issues such as concern for handling water resources or curbing use of fossil fuels. But in their first experience observing summit preparation as a team, they found themselves in agreement on a basic approach. Peter Pavlovic, a Slovakian Lutheran minister who works with the Commission for Churches in Society, an agency of the Conference of European Churches, said governments generally acknowledged that development must include the ecological and social aspects as well as the economic. But the ecumenical team was insisting that all three of those aspects had an essential ethical dimension. "This still is not generally recognized," Pavlovic said.
