Two Task Force Meetings Remain

The Texas Annual Conference in May 2010 passed a resolution establishing a task force and to seek input from members throughout the annual conference regarding the issues surrounding the Judicial Council Ruling Number 1150.  The Task Force is holding five listening sessions throughout the annual conference, inviting members to provide their own reflections concerning the Annual Conference’s Model for Ministry and the April 2010 ruling.

Issues to be addressed by the Task Force and the Annual Conference in May include (among others):

• Structure and Function of the Core Leadership Team of the Annual Conference
• Governance, Budget Procedures, and Communication

The Task Force has already had several meetings. The first listening session was held on February 17 at the First UMC in Conroe.  The remaining sessions are scheduled in other parts of the Annual Conference:

March 14 7PM First UMC, Longview  Genesis Class Room (3^rd Floor)

March 24 7PM Trinity UMC, Beaumont Youth Center
