KIDS & STUDENTS PRAYERS
EMPLOYMENT
SERVE
St. John is continuing in the search for an Associate Pastor who will lead the areas of Small Groups and Care Ministry. A Call Committee has been established consisting of Dion Garrett, Senior Pastor (member Board of Directors & Elders), Jeff Cook, CFO (Board of Directors member), Chris Toomey, LIFEjourney Director, and Tracy Dunn, HR & Business Director. The initial interviews have been conducted by the Call Committee with 3 seminary students and 3 pastors in the field whose names have been given to us for consideration. The Committee now is working with the Presidents for the Board of Directors and Board of Elders to prayerfully consider the next steps in the process. We ask you to continue to pray that God would clearly show us who He has planned to be our next Associate Pastor. A congregational voter’s meeting will not be necessary for issuing this call, as this is done, per our constitution, by the Board of Directors, subject to approval by the Board of Elders.
