Holy Trinity’s Church Council is engaging the Congregation to begin thoughtful planning for a future transition in pastoral leadership. With the understanding that Pastor Steve is anticipating a future retirement in the next several years (click here for more details), Council will engage the Congregation to determine a succession process so that we are prepared to act when that time comes.
Specifically, the Congregation will be asked to choose the approach that will be followed as we select our next lead pastor. As outlined in the Case Statement for Succession Planning (click here for more details), there are several options for this transition. In addition to the traditional Interim Pastor approach, there is an alternative Co-Pastor approach, as well as an option to introduce another approach. Since the authority for discerning the approach to call its next Lead Pastor lies with the Congregation as moderated by Council, Council members will facilitate five congregational listening sessions in the coming weeks to discuss these approaches for Holy Trinity and any other approaches that may arise. These sessions will be an opportunity for the Congregation to provide input to discern a faithful path forward.
Please plan to join one of the scheduled Listening Sessions:
Sunday, April 19, after 8:30 am and 10 am worship services
Wednesday, April 29, at 7:00 pm
Sunday, May 3, after 8:30 am and 10 am worship services
