Transition Update
June 19, 2024
Dear Christ Church,
As members of the Christ Church Search Committee, we hope this letter finds you well and in good spirits. Thank you for your support of Christ Church in this season of transition.
We want to thank you for your patience during the recent quiet period of the Lead Pastor search. This quiet period has ended as our search process has now reached a pivotal moment with our partners at Slingshot Group presenting candidates to the Search Committee. The interview process for these potential candidates is set to begin soon, and we are excited about the opportunities that lie ahead for our Christ Church family.
As we embark on this significant journey, we humbly ask for your prayers and support. This is a crucial time for our congregation and we seek God’s guidance and wisdom in every step we take. Here are a few specific ways you can pray for us:
- Discernment: Pray that the Search Committee and church leadership will have clear discernment to recognize the candidate whom God has prepared for us.
- Unity: Pray for unity within our church body during this transitional period. May we come together with one heart and one mind, focused on the mission and vision God has for us.
- Wisdom for Candidates: Pray that each candidate will feel God’s presence and have the wisdom to know if this is the right place for their ministry.
- Patience and Trust: Pray that we all have patience and trust in God’s timing, knowing that He is in control and will lead us to the right person.
Also, please see our Prayer page for additional ongoing prayers led by the Lead Pastor Transition Prayer Team.
We are confident that with your prayers and God’s guidance, we will find the leader who will help us grow in faith and continue to serve our community with love and dedication.
Thank you for your continued faithfulness and support. We are blessed to be part of such a loving and prayerful congregation.
