Joint Letter from the Minister and the President
Rev. CJ has made the decision to leave our Congregation and the Board of Trustees has agreed to accept his decision. We have jointly agreed that Rev CJ will leave at the end of our current contract on April 30, 2017.
The next few months will be a period of completion, preparation, and celebration. This Congregation has come a long way since 2013. We are a stronger, more collaborative Congregation and, although not without significant financial challenges, ready to continue the journey towards settled ministry. A celebration dinner is being planned for April 22, 2017.
A Ministerial Selection Committee will be commissioned by the Board of Trustees to seek a Developmental Minister to be in place during the summer of 2017. Members of the Congregation who have accepted an invitation to serve as a member of the Ministerial Selection Committee are: Sylvia Ansay, Drew Davis, Dick Hattwick, Sadiqa Johnson, Chris Juhl, Jim Meyer, and Suzanne Schluter. We appreciate their service to our Congregation.
Previously planned schedules mean that neither of us will be at the service on Sunday, but please reach out to us by email or telephone or talk to members of the Board of Trustees at Sunday’s service.
Rev. CJ McGregor Paul G. Ward
Minister President, Board of Trustees
