Transition Process
Our Priest In Charge job description is now officially posted! Please continue to pray for the parish, and the Vestry/Search Committee as we continue on this journey together.
Evening of Discernment Cancelled
Due to insufficient interest, we have cancelled the Evening of Discernment scheduled for April 24, 2018.
Please note that the Commission on Ministry continues the important work of helping clergy and parish discernment committees identify and nurture people who feel called to ordained ministry.
We encourage anyone who is sensing a call to ordained ministry, priestly or diaconal, to visit the Commission on Ministry subpage at the diocesan site and review the Guidelines which describe in detail the process leading to ordination. Aspirants, as well as others, are welcome to contact the chairs of the Committee on the Priesthood and the Committee on the Diaconate with questions.
