Habemus…Pastor?!

Habemus…Pastor?!

After many months of deliberation, prayers, soul searching, and people searching, the Grace United Church of Christ Search Committee is proud to announce that we have indeed finally found what we have been looking for–a new pastor (well, a candidate to present to the congregation)!

Over the next few days, members will be receiving a letter introducing you to our recommended candidate and we hope that you will feel the same about this person as we do now.  We have scheduled a potluck for Saturday evening, June 28 at 6:00PM as an opportunity to meet our candidate and some family and there will be a congregational meeting immediately following worship on June 29, to vote on whether or not to call this person as our next settled pastor.  We hope all our members and friends can join us for these two special events.

The Committee realizes that this has been a long process and we appreciate everyone’s patience but it was necessary to make sure that we have truly heard the Holy Spirit over the din and rancor of life and selected wisely.  To have moved any faster would not have done us any justice and would have possibly not given us who we have found or what we need as we move forward.

Thank you all for your continued prayers and support and may God continue to enlighten and embolden us as we move forward with grace at Grace.
