the conference Council on Ministries shall determine the membership of the
council, which may be assigned other duties and responsibilities and which may
have membership in common with other structures. It is recommended that when
the structure sits as the council, Nno more than one-
third
of the membership of the council shall be adults, one of whom
may be the conference lay leader or his/her representative. It is
recommended that the council be composed of 50 percent racial and ethnic group
members. (It is suggested that members at large may be added toward achieving
50/50 ethnic/white membership in a manner to be determined by the conference
Council on Youth Ministry.) Where ethnic or language conferences
overlap nonethnic conferences, provision shall should
be made for the inclusion of members of the ethnic or language conferences and
vice-
versa.

members (full or preparatory) of The United Methodist Church.
