We have completed a Ministry Discernment Profile (MDP), which has been approved by Session and the Presbytery Committee on Ministry (COM), and is now posted to the Church Leadership Connection (CLC) website. Presbyterian polity is a feast for alphabet soup lovers.

CLC matches our MDP with applicants throughout the denomination and across the nation, and the PNC is sorting through those matches. Click here to view the MDP now.

And the Committee is posting the MDP elsewhere on online job forums, as well as using our clergy and lay networks to spread the word that our wonderful church is offering the opportunity to shepherd a vibrant and caring congregation in the service of Christ. Tell a friend! And feel free to approach any member of the Committee – Mike Sohigian, Robyn Paris, Kathryn Howe, David Kadue, MC Haslett, Gabby Esunge, and Nick Castellano – with your questions, suggestions, encouragement or prayers.
