Congregational Meeting in January

The Session has called a congregational meeting for January 12 at the start of the 11 am service to consider a slate of members to serve on the nominating committee for an Associate Pastor for Christian Formation. The slate is: Lisa Cook, Katherine Farless, Layne King, Will Martin, Paul Parker, Rebecca Sheaff, and Adrienne Woods. Learn more about them here. Donna Chase, current Director of Christian Formation, will retire in late spring. We will find many ways to say thank you and celebrate her in the days ahead. It will be exciting to welcome another called and installed pastor to our staff, leading our Christian Formation ministry, offering pastoral care, teaching and participating in worship leadership. Please be in prayer for Donna, those who will serve on the APNC, and the person God is calling to this work. 

More staff news: Our hospitality staff welcomes Gerald Hammonds, and Lisa Watlington has moved from part time to full time.
