The task now before the search committee is that of discernment.

We plan to present some of the candidate’s biographical information as early as next Sunday.

At the May 9, 2021 meeting, some of the congregation had questions regarding the hiring process of FCIP pastor.  We would like to walk the congregation through the hiring process of a pastor with First Church.  All candidates who want to be considered for the part-time pastor position, including living in the parsonage, fill out

We also took this opportunity to view the parsonage with the Candidate and his wife. His children were not present.

Please remember if you have any questions or concerns about the current process, contact Francine

Since joining the NACCC, First Church has received six profiles and has subsequently interviewed four potential candidates

The search team posted the open pastor position at 25 seminary schools on the East Coast and the NACCC job board.

No applications received yet. The church profile and a cover letter was sent to schools with programs in ministry.

The Search Team welcomes back Pastor Matt and looks forward to a coordinated effort to find a settled pastor.

We hope the NACCC leads us to Candidates not seen from the UCC.

These are crazy times that we are living! It seems like this COVID separation has been going on forever.

The Search Team has not received any additional profiles from the UCC since this past Summer.
