Since our last report in January, our top candidate let us know they cannot yet give us a definite answer. By December, while still hoping our candidate would be able to move forward in January, our committee reviewed some strong former applicants and other new individuals who had been recommended to us. However, unforeseen circumstances arose for our candidate, and they needed some additional time before progressing further. The process continued so well that our team anticipated a call weekend in late fall. We reviewed applications, requested follow-up information, conducted interviews, and began narrowing down the pool of applicants.īy early fall, we decided to pursue our top candidate. We were delighted with the response of so many great candidates interested in being a part of SMBC. In late spring of last year, we launched web pages dedicated to the pastor search, and early last summer, we publicized and began accepting applications for the senior pastor position. In January 2021, the Church Profile was completed, and our committee was able to start work on the Pastor Profile.
#PASTORAL ARTICLES FOR CHURCH NEWSLETTERS UPDATE#
Unfortunately, we do not have a candidate to announce today, but we do want to share you with an important update on the search process. We know you have been waiting patiently, or perhaps impatiently, for an update on our progress, and we have been eager to provide that to you. We are very appreciative of your support and your prayers.
Thank you for your continued prayers for our committee and our future pastor.
