January 18, 2025 - PNC Update #5

January 18, 2025

Dear Christ Pres Family,

We are excited to provide you with an update on the work of the Pastor Nominating Committee (PNC). Over the past month, we have continued our diligent efforts to identify the next pastor God has prepared for our church.

Progress Highlights

  1. Initial Interviews and Reference Checks

    • We have completed initial interviews with several candidates and are in the process of conducting reference checks for those moving forward in the selection process.

    • Each candidate is being carefully evaluated based on their alignment with our church’s vision, mission, and community needs.

  2. Candidate Review Process

    • We are currently advancing a number of strong candidates to the next stages of evaluation. This includes more in-depth interviews with all members of the PNC.

  3. Next Steps

    • As we are now at a stage where several candidates are moving forward in the selection process, we have decided to hold our February meeting in person to allow us to spend more time in prayer and discernment.

How You Can Help

We deeply value your prayers as we continue this important work. Please pray for:

  • Wisdom and discernment for our committee members.

  • Encouragement and clarity for the candidates as they navigate this process.

  • Unity as we seek God’s will for our church.

Thank you for your trust, support, and patience during this season of discernment. We are committed to keeping you updated as we progress and will provide another update in the coming weeks.
