St. Andrew's Pastor Nominating Committee (PNC) is grateful for your ongoing prayers and encouragement as they continue the search for St. Andrew’s next pastor. Many of you have reached out to the committee members during worship, at events, and through notes of support, and they deeply value your partnership in this important work.
Over the past several weeks, the committee has been diligently reviewing Personal Discernment Profiles from pastors seeking new calls, along with materials from those who have self-referred. Each profile invites them into the story of someone’s ministry and sense of call, and they are prayerfully discerning which individuals may be a good fit for the gifts and needs of St. Andrew.
They are now finalizing a list of candidates to invite for first-round virtual interviews, which they hope to begin by the end of September. To broaden our reach, they have also posted St. Andrew's Ministry Discernment Profile and job description in Presbyterian Outlook—a national publication that allows the committee to connect with potential candidates beyond the PC(USA)’s Church Leadership Connection (CLC). This helps the committee reach pastors who may not yet be registered through the CLC but who may feel called to serve at St. Andrew.
There is no set closing date for our posting, which means the committee will continue reviewing and interviewing candidates on a rolling basis. Their commitment is to move forward with both care and efficiency, guided always by the Holy Spirit.
