Ministry Description |
Salem (Hetzel's) is a union church affiliating with the UCC and ELCA denominations worshiping in the same building. Up until recently, they have been served by one part-time UCC pastor and one part-time Lutheran pastor. They are now working on being one community of faith and the first step is to call one pastor full-time for both congregations. This is a designated term of 2 years with the option to be called at the end of those 2 years. The congregations want to live with this situation for a while before definitely moving forward. This pastor needs to be an outgoing person able to relate to all people no matter where they are on life's journey, where they work, or their economic status. This pastor needs to be ecumenically minded and willing to respect the traditions of the UCC and the ELCA. You would need to help the UCC Consistory and the ELCA Council as they strive to form a joint board. The candidate would need to be interviewed and affirmed by the Lutheran Bishop of the NE PA Synod. Please contact me for more information and/or if you are interested. |
