Congregational Meeting scheduled
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. 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.
Names needed
The Appointments Committee needs your help. Who would you like to see on your next church officer Nominating Committee? Nominating creates the slate of elders you elect each spring to help govern our church. You have the opportunity to elect eight members of Nominating (another seven are selected by our governing Session). The committee should reflect our congregation’s gender, age and experience. Send suggestions here by December 20.
