Annual Report July 1, 2009 – June 30, 2010
Spirit Led, Renewing the Church!United Theological Seminary • 4501 Denlinger Road • Dayton, Ohio 45426
There is a design of the heart that is shaped toward giving. In this Annual Report, you will find a listing of those whose hearts have a design that has called on each of them to give to the work of United’s ministry of preparing men and women for Christian service. Behind every gift is a story and each story reflects an encounter with the Holy Spirit’s invitation to holy and sacred living.
A seminary is a hybrid community where the Church’s mission is taught and its future leaders are engaged by gifted faculty, using dynamic models of education within the academic pattern. We are educating and preparing church leaders to reverse the trends of Church decline and become a spark that ignites the ministries of faithful churches across the globe. This makes a seminary one of the most exciting and spiritually alive environments found in our world.
Our community has been blessed with the gifts of many who faithfully support United because it represents a hope for the future of the Church that engages and strengthens the work of the Holy Spirit in the world. Many of our donors have never attended a seminary class and most have not visited our new campus. However, we find an increasing number of persons supporting United because they have benefited from excellent pastoral leadership in their churches, and their communities are positively affected by the good work of United’s alumni/ae.
As a seminary student at United, I took a class that still echoes for me today entitled “The Theology of Human Nature.” In one of his early lectures, Dr. Joseph Goetz taught us about the “Imago Dei,” the image of God. He ended his lecture, then looked at us and asked, “Do you see the image of God in yourselves—and equally do you see the image of God in others?”
The people who support United are more than listed names. We are grateful for the faithful “images of God” that each person represents. In those who support us, we see God’s image reflected and we work in sacred and holy ways to be the “Imago Dei” to the world. Through you and the gifts you provide, we work jointly to bring the “image of God” into a renewed Church.
We give thanks for you and for your generous offerings to United, “renewing the Church for the mission of Jesus Christ in the world.”
Sincerely,
Reverend Timothy J. Forbess ’93
Vice President for Development
United is a seminary of The United Methodist Church that welcomes students from many faith traditions.
Giving: A Design of the Heart Letter from the Vice President for Development
As graduates of United, we have found that the seminary has been integral to the formation of our faith as well as in preparation for a lifetime in ministry. Through the years the seminary has been a source of inspiration and continuing education for us as we have taken advantage of its offerings to alumni/ae and the greater Church.
For almost five decades we have wholeheartedly supported United with donations to the annual fund and its capital campaigns. In our early years
in ministry, our meager gifts probably did more to keep us in touch with United than they did to help with the school’s bottom line.
Each of our late spouses, the Rev. Dr. James D. Nelson, ’59, and the Rev. Dr. Judith Stone Olin, ’67, also United graduates, had a deep and abiding love for and commitment to the seminary. When United established its new campus,each of us contributed to the building by naming rooms in their memory: the office of the president for Judy, and the James D. Nelson Room of the EUB Heritage Center for Jim.
We believe in United’s mission to recruit, educate, and nurture faithful leaders for the mission of Jesus Christ in the world, and we want to make a significant gift to its future as it faithfully serves the Church.
In 2006, when we were married and established a trust to care for the disposition of our assets, we chose to leave the major portion of our estate as an unrestricted gift to United. While we anticipate that it will be many years before United will receive this bequest, we trust our investment will bear fruit in the advancement of the work of Christ in the world through this school that we love.
