The Search Committee wishes to express appreciation to all who took part in the Congregational Assessment which concluded on October 1. Our committee will begin evaluating all three of the assessments—-Congregational, Community and Kingdom with each component helping determine the ideal candidate description. We also wish to express our sincere thanks to the Prayer sub-committee who coordinated the Prayer Service on October 1. We have heard so many positive comments about how meaningful and well-planned the service was.
Our committee will meet today with Grady King and we have another meeting set for Sunday, October 29, immediately following the 5th Sunday Congregational luncheon. Don’t forget to sign up TODAY at the Welcome Center for the luncheon. See inside for more information. To Our Guests… We are blessed to have you here with us for worship today.
