Dear church family: The Search Committee has scheduled its final event for the Search-and-Call process, Candidating Weekend. We will be hosting an open house for everyone to come and meet the potential pastoral candidate on Saturday August 23rd from 3-6pm in Peace Hall. Everyone is invited to attend the Sunday worship service led by the candidate at 10am the following morning. Service will be followed immediatly by a special congregational meeting to hold a vote to call the candidate as the next full-time pastor at St. John. We hope to see you all join us for this final step in our Search-and-Call process!
