Ministerial Search Committee NEWS - March 5, 2013

[Toby Smith Ropeik]

We hope you have all heard by know that Candidating Week is April 28 – May 5th. This is your week to meet and get to know our ONE final candidate for Senior Minister. The candidate will preach on both Sundays and, in between, meet with members of our congregation and staff.  The week culminates in the all-congregation vote to call the minister on May 5, 2013 at 12:30 PM in the Sanctuary. Please set aside some time during this week to spend with our candidate. We are planning Q & A meetings, meals, and social occasions, at different times of the day, to give you many different options for spending time with the candidate. Our candidate is eager to meet with as many different groups and people as possible but please understand that the week’s final schedule will be determined in conjunction with the candidate. While we will honor as many requests as possible, we also need to allow our candidate sufficient time to attend to personal needs like meeting with a realtor. Please help make the candidate feel welcome by volunteering during the week. Contact Twinkle Manning <twinkle...@gmail.com>, Gretchen Nelson <ghne...@me.com>, Rebecca Curzon<rebecc...@comcast.net> or Sue Ryan <susanr...@comcast.net> to volunteer.
