Ministry Transitions Series: The Congregational Search Committee Version
Your pastor has resigned or anticipates retirement. Now your congregation faces the experience of a pastoral search and transition. How do you begin this process? Be assured that the denominational ministerial leadership office and your area church minister want to work with you!
Contact the area church minister to meet with your search committee and orient you to your task. Study the documents in this package carefully. Because this process takes time, you should plan to be intentional about each step. The Congregational Information form asks several questions related to the theological perspective of your congregation. We suggest that you answer these in response to Confession of Faith in a Mennonite Perspective and A Shared Understanding of Ministerial Leadership
