Ministry Description |
The Granite Falls United Church of Christ (Congregational) is located just one block from the scenic and historic Minnesota River in west central Minnesota. The church has been a contributing fixture in the community since the very early days of settlement and in 2022 we celebrated our 150th anniversary. We seek bridge leadership to help us discern a realistic path into the future. We need help making our church’s presence and involvement in the community more visible. We need to be more conscious of different viewpoints, beliefs and values and to simultaneously work on more open and empathetic communication to bridge these differences. Following the covid-19 pandemic we find ourselves missing members that have become less active and look for ways to draw them back into more active participation. Most of our members are experiencing the trials and uncertainties of age. We look for comfort and assurance. Our congregation is looking for a half time pastor that would not only lead us on Sunday morning but would enjoy leading an additional bible study group that has been active for many years. Someone that can do some visitation and bring communion to those who can’t make it to church on Sunday is also important. |
