From the Personnel Committee

In April we reported that Rev. Carla Aday had been called by the Congregational Board to serve as Senior Minister. The Personnel Committee is now working to fill the two primary staff roles previously held by Carla.

First, we are happy to report that the congregational board approved the recommendation for Dr. Mike Graves, currently our Guest Preacher, to be called to serve as a part-time Scholar in Residence. In this role, Mike will oversee the worship ministry, will teach on a regular basis and preach when Carla is away.

Second, the personnel committee plans to seek an Executive Director of Operations to manage staff responsible for finance, technology, building operations and maintenance. Carla will continue to lead the operations staff until a replacement is identified, so over the summer months Carla and Mike will share pulpit duties and Carla will begin preaching regularly after Labor Day.
