Search Committee for Assistant/Associate Pastor and Church Planting Resident: The Session is pleased to announce that we will be forming a new Assistant Pastor Search Committee (APSC) soon. Their task will be searching for a new Assistant/Associate Pastor of Discipleship and Community Life. The same APSC will also be considering candidates for our next Church Planting Resident. Thank you for the interest that many of you have shown so far in potentially serving on this Committee. You still have until Sunday, August 3, to notify the Session of any nominations (yourself or someone else that you’ve prayerfully considered and contacted). The Session plans to select a representative committee from the nominees and appoint the committee soon thereafter. The Committee will consist of Pastor Matt, at least one active Ruling Elder on Session (to serve as Chairman), and members to be named soon, with more than one female member, Lord willing.
Search Committees are a great opportunity for everyone in the Body of Christ to each play a unique role. The APSC will ultimately recommend candidates for each position to the Session, who will then make the hiring decision. The Rocky Mountain Presbytery, of course, would make the decision to ordain candidates or transfer a previously ordained minister, as the case might be. Last but not least, we encourage the congregation to prayerfully support the whole process. In all this, we trust that God will bring us the right men in the right time, in the right order.
