An update from your Pastoral Search Committee:
The church profile and pastor profile have now been completed, and as a result, we are officially moving from Phase 1: Preparation into Phase 2: Collection of the pastoral search process.
During Phase 1, the committee organized its work and prayerfully developed these profiles to clearly articulate who we are as a congregation and the qualities, convictions, and shepherding priorities we believe are important for our next pastor. These documents now serve as the foundation for the search moving forward.
As we enter Phase 2, the committee, through our consultant McGowan Global, will begin receiving and interviewing potential candidates for consideration. This phase requires careful discernment and appropriate confidentiality, and we will continue to provide updates monthly
The profiles are now available to the congregation and can be viewed below.
Above all, we want to continue emphasizing the importance of congregational prayer. The committee depends entirely on the Lord’s wisdom, and the spiritual unity of our church is essential as we move forward. The Phase 2 Prayer Sheet is now available in print on Sundays, through the link below, and in PDF form through our weekly email, and we warmly encourage every household to use it in personal and family devotions for this next phase of the search.
Please continue to pray:
That we would seek the Lord Himself above all else
That our church would remain unified in love, humility, and patience
That the Lord would provide the man He has prepared to shepherd this congregation in the next season
Thank you for your continued prayers, trust, and patience as we walk through this process together. We rest in the Lord’s promise:
“Trust in the Lord with all your heart,
and do not lean on your own understanding.
In all your ways acknowledge him,
and he will make straight your paths.”
— Proverbs 3:5–6
In Christ,
The Pastoral Search Committee
