PNC STATUS

At a Glance

April 2023: We continue to be encouraged by how God is working in and leading this process!  Our current task is to complete the Ministry Descriptive Profile (MDP) which describes our church, our local community, our ministries and goals, and desired characteristics of our new pastor. This will be submitted to the presbytery database by early June in order to start receiving pastor candidate information.
