CONFERENCE PROCEEDINGS
REPORT NO. 27
BE IT PROPOSED TO THE UNITED METHODIST CHURCH ANNUAL CONFERENCES IN OHIO :
1) that we authorize the setting up of a provisional commission from the membership of the Inter-Conference Commission on College and. Uni- versity Religious Life and The Board of Directors for Campus Chris- tian Life in Ohio to explore appropriate steps for and possible structures to coordinate the campus ministries of our two churches.
2) that we approach the appropriate agencies of our annual conferences to seek authorization for the provisional commission and to create and develop structure for the coordination of the campus ministries of the United Methodist Church, in keeping with the legislative provisions developed by the past General Conference.
3) that we coordinate the campus ministries by holding joint meetings of our two groups, delegating responsibilities to an executive committee comprised of the two executive committees, until such time as the provisions of the General Conference provide for a permanent coordi- nating procedure or until the organic union of our conferences in Ohio.
It was agreed that the responsiblity for presenting the resolution in the Methodist Church should be Richard Cheney and the Evangelical United Brethren Church be Norman Snook. He was asked to channel this resolution through the Conference Superintendents affiliated with the State Board.
REPORT NO. 28 Resolution on Christian Social Action
WHEREAS, the levels of Public Assistance for aged, blind, physically and mentally handicapped adults and dependent children in our State is deplorable, and WHEREAS, the suffering of these people is unbelievably inhuman, and WHEREAS, we believe that the majority of citizens of Ohio are humane per- sons and if informed would willingly pay the taxes necessary to adequately support such individuals,
BE IT RESOLVED, that the Ohio Miami Conference of The United Methodist Church petition the Administration and Legislators of Ohio to devise pro- grams, allocate sufficient funds and levy proper taxes in order to assure de- cent levels of health and human dignity, and that this resolution be sent to Governor Rhodes and to all Legislators of the Ohio Assembly who represent districts and areas within the bounds of the Ohio Miami Conference.
Respectfully submitted, DAVID SCHNEIDER, Director Christian Social Action
