Call Committee Update
Because of the Lord’s great love we are not consumed,
for his compassions never fail.
They are new every morning;
great is your faithfulness. -Lamentations 3:22-23
Last Thursday the call committee met with Interim Bishop Andrea DeGroot-Nesdahl and Rev. Steve Brackett, Assistant to the Bishop. Bishop DeGroot-Nesdahl described the time in which we find ourselves at First Lutheran as a “new beginning.” As our congregation bids farewell to Pastor Melissa and as we start over in our search for a senior pastor, we know God can be trusted, because God is a God of new beginnings, and great is God’s faithfulness!
The call committee will soon begin reviewing the Rostered Minister Profiles of candidates. Members who would like to submit a nomination should contact chairperson Greg McGohan at gmcgohan@gmail.com or 507-202-1411. Any nominations from the congregation will be forwarded to the Synod office.
