Ministry Description |
We are a small rural church and are seeking a pastor who will preach each Sunday and meet the pastoral needs of our church as they arise during this time of transition. We are a healthy church with a wide variety of ages and diversity in our congregation. We have a solid core of active members and some long-standing traditions in our church. Our church serves the needs of our neighbors with several outreach programs including the Canterbury Cares Food Pantry, which is housed in our church, and currently serves about 100 families. We also have a team who prepares and serves at the Willimantic Community Meal program, serving the need of some of the urban population there. We also host some popular community events that include summer concert series, an Old Home Days fair (which takes place on our church grounds), the Chili Cook-off and so much more. We are hoping for help and guidance for the congregation and our search team in creating our church profile. We also need guidance in understanding how such a significant change in pastoral leadership is going to affect and change the congregation's expectations of their next Pastor. |
