• 5 Year Plan
• The Committee will serve as a liaison with the Congregation, District, and pastoral candidates.
• The Committee will summarize information from the District and distribute to the Congregation.
• The Leadership will contact Pastor Stoterau and engage a Vacancy Pastor.
• Until a Vacancy Pastor is available, we will continue with pulpit supply from local sources.
• We will proceed with a Call from the field by November.
• If the Call from the field is unsuccessful, we will request that Pastor Stoterau search for a suitable Seminarian from the Class of 2017.

This is an extraordinarily important Congregational Meeting. Please plan to attend.
