2 Message from Pastor Nominating Committee April 2017 The journey to find a new pastor had the promise to be exciting, tedious, joyful, spiritually fulfilling, frustrating, inspiring, lengthy, and purposeful. It was to be a process, an exercise in discernment. The challenge would be to listen to the congregation as it worked through the development of the Ministry Information Form, but more importantly, to attend to God s will in the search for that person best suited to lead this congregation as it expresses its mission and ministry in the community. The promise is being fulfilled in its entirety. Each Pastor Nominating Committee member can describe moments when the group has experienced intense excitement and deep disappointment, as well as moments when she or he felt drawn to an individual only to discover that the feeling wasn t widely shared within the group. The primary source of referrals has been the denomination s online database of Personal Information Forms (PIF) at the Church Leadership Connection (clc.pcusa.org). In that document pastors seeking a call, or open to a call, describe their personal background (education, pastoral service history, special training or certification), activities at the presbytery or wider level, personal strengths and areas that could be improved, links to personal websites or sermons or blogs, and a statement of belief. (Please note that this is an abbreviated list of the PIF s contents.) We have studied over 300 PIFs. Names of people who have not posted a PIF on the Church Leadership Connection have come from individuals who know of our need for a pastor. Our studies have led to over 20 telephone interviews. Those interviews resulted in joining three people for their Sunday worship services. Two people were very attractive and continued the conversation over several phone calls. We were disappointed when the attraction turned out not to be mutual. One of the non-clc referrals led to an intense period of discernment with a candidate. We arranged a special worship service for that person. Unfortunately, that person s prayers did not lead to further consideration. You may have questions from time to time about the committee s work and its sense of progress. We are free to comment in general terms; however, the subject of individuals must always remain confidential. Maintaining that confidentiality within the PNC is of the upmost importance; it is an issue of integrity, trusting God in the process, and spiritual leadership. It ensures that the identities of the prospective pastors are protected. We know that you are praying for us. We know that you are experiencing some of the same emotions we are as we go through this period of discernment. We are individually in prayer continually. Recently a committee member brought a message from a devotional: when we pray, be specific. Although the Lord already knows what we want before our mouths speak, He has said that the Holy Spirit will intercede for us. So we are now praying, Lord, you already know that person who can share our vision and help us live into it faithfully. Help us to be so tuned to your will that we will soon see what you are ready to reveal. May it be so. Believing in God s favor, we are Your Pastor Nominating Committee Paul Pope, Will Scott, Susan Smith, Mary Anne Tyndall, and Mary Wheatley.
