Update – Search Committee – July 6th, 2020

The Search Committee leads had a very productive kickoff meeting with Rev. Canon Arlette D. Benoit Joseph, the Canon of Transition Ministry for the Diocese of Pennsylvania, and we continue to work weekly with Bud Holland, our rector search consultant.

Arlette mentioned that application flow will probably be a little slow until we get closer to our end of application receiving window on August 26th. This is due to COVID-19 and summer vacations.

We have received a couple applicants thus far and will start reviewing their materials and generating follow up questions and scheduling interviews as appropriate.

The search process is confidential so we will not be sharing candidate information and backgrounds, but we will continue to post regular updates on the progress.

Please keep the Search Committee and our applicants in your prayers.

Yours in Christ,
RECTOR SEARCH COMMITTEE
