CALL COMMITTEE UPDATE
Dear members of the Emmanuel and Laurel Hall Community,
This is the second in a continuing series of articles regarding the progress of our Call Committee. In a series of meetings which we called “Cottage Meetings” about a year ago, the congregation informed us about their requests for a new pastor. Here is a consolidated list in no particular order:
• Administration: Supervise senior and church staff promoting morale and development.
• Building a Sense of Community: Help Emmanuel and Laurel Hall grow closer together.
• Pastoral Care and Visitation: Get to know members of the congregation including the homebound
• Youth and Family Ministry: Develop a relationship with the Laurel Hall School children and families.
• Worship: Provide inspirational preaching (Sunday services, school chapels and additional life activities) and worship planning (with the Minister of Music).
• Arts: Support drama, music and the arts in our unique entertainment-based community
• Development: Lead our community in developing a strategic mission plan and assist in its implementation.
In addition…
• Help people develop their spiritual life
• Build a sense of community among the people with whom he/she works
• Be an effective communicator
• Bring joy and good humor to relationships
• Be creative and innovative about his or her tasks
In my next article I will share with you more information from the MSP (Ministry Site Profile).
