CHECK BELOW FOR UPDATES ON THE PASTORAL CALL PROCESS→
CONGREGATIONAL NOMINATION FORM FOR LEAD PASTOR
The task of calling a pastor in the ELCA belongs to the congregation. The pastoral call itself is God’s activity, but God works through the congregation, committees, pastors, and synod staff to call pastors to serve the church.
We invite the congregation to submit names for consideration for our next Lead Pastor. Please keep in mind the specific qualifications for this pastor as described in the summary of our Ministry Site Profile shared at our annual meeting and included as part of this form.
If you know of a pastor whom you think may fit our congregation’s ministry, or if you visit other congregations or talk with your friends and relatives and become aware of a pastor, let us know by completing this brief form. We will forward all nominations to our synod staff for consideration. The synod staff will help us determine which candidates the call committee should interview.
All recommendations must be received by April 24, 2025.
