2010 Online NYI Convention| South Texas District
Welcome to our NYI convention. The purpose of the annual convention is three fold:
1)Promote the events, purpose and ministry of Nazarene Youth International on the district.
2)Celebrate the past year of ministry through annual reporting.
3)Elect leaders for the upcoming year.
Our website takes care of #1 pretty well. Anything you need to know about our district program can be found at www.southtexasnyi.org (which you probably already know about if you’re reading this). If you can’t find it here, the email addresses of our leaders are accessible and you can contact one of them to answer your question directly.
A copy of the President’s report can be downloaded by clicking here. A treasurer’s report will be available in the district journal, so that pretty much takes care of #2.
On to # 3…
It is necessary to elect leaders for the upcoming year and since most students can’t attend the District Leadership Summit (because it’s held on Thursday and Friday), we’ve decided to conduct our business online.
Who is eligible to vote?
•Local Pastors
•Youth Pastors
•Local Church Staff who participate in NYI
•Assigned Elders and Deacons on the South Texas District
•Local NYI Presidents
•Local Delegates
All of these are pretty self-explanatory except this last one: “Local Delegates.” Here’s what the Bibl…I mean the Manual says about “local delegates”:
The number of local NYI delegates for each church is determined by the membership figures on the most recent local pastor’s
report prior to the district assembly.
Please verify with your pastor, NYI president or youth pastor if you are eligible to vote as a “local delegate.” This selection may have been made by an election OR you may have been appointed.
Now that you know you’re eligible to vote, Let’s proceed with the ballot. The Ballot
