Merry Christmas!

The Christmas season is such a busy time. But, even in the midst of the many holiday activities, the pulpit search process is moving forward. 

The pulpit committee and elders enjoyed a combined meeting on Sunday, 12/13 to discuss the two potential candidates for our position. Our intention is to gain a consensus on moving forward with one person as we begin 2010.

Each pulpit committee member gave their thoughts and impressions of each man to the whole group. There was good discussion about characteristics we should be looking for in a potential candidate and the attributes of the two men.

The elders have been asked to consider the materials compiled on each man, recorded sermons preached and perspective of the pulpit committee and come back with an opinion of whom we should pursue further. The decision about which man we will continue to pursue will likely come around the beginning of the New Year.

Continue to pray for the church leaders and the men we are pursuing. There is much to consider. We can only make the right choice with the Lord’s leading. I am so thankful we are able to rely on His direction and not our own wisdom.

Your brother,
