The General Board of Global Ministries, including the Women's Division, is instructed by the 1996 General Conference of The United Methodist Church to re-allocate at least three million dollars of its undesignated funds now being given in grants to groups and/or organizations which are non-church related in their nature and purpose to the Ministries Initiative Fund and to the direct support of United Methodist full-time missionaries. These funds shall be proportionately distributed over the quadrennium in accordance with whatever formula may be agreed upon by the General Council of Finance and Administration. All monies made available by the General Board of Global Ministries and the Women's Division shall be certified and be subject to audit by the General Council on Finance and Administration.
