Call Committee Update (October 29, 2007)

In anticipation of receiving the first round of candidate names from the Synod at our meeting October 29^th, the Call Committee remains absorbed in fine-tuning the leadership objectives of the lead pastor. These objectives will serve to provide a springboard for the Committee’s interviewing, while at the same time presenting for candidates a consummate portrayal of ministry expectations.

We continue to be grateful to all persons who invite conversations with members of the Call Committee. These conversations reveal that a wide range of expectation exists within the congregation as to the length of time necessary for the process – some anxious to move faster, some eager to slow it down. This is natural in such a process. We offer our assurance that the Committee will be as efficient as practical in moving the process along, while at the same time honoring the importance of considering all essential avenues in the course.
