Finding our next pastor isn’t about filling a position—it’s about discerning God’s call. We’re committed to seeking His guidance at every turn, and that’s where you come in. Please pray with us. Pray for clarity for our search team and elders. Pray for the candidates we meet and their families as they consider this call. Pray over every conversation, every decision, and every detail that will unfold in the coming months.
The group was proposed by the Nominating Committee and EEB, and our congregation voted to approve a team of 7 individuals during our June 2025 Church Business Meeting.
Our Search Team, in support with the elders, made the decision to hire NL Moore & Associates to help us in our search for a lead pastor.
NL Moore guides us through a discovery process—including a congregational assessment, interviews, and focus groups—to clarify our church’s identity and identify the qualities we need in our next pastor.
NL Moore works closely with the Search Team and our Elder Executive Board to synthesize the results of the congregational assessment, interviews, and focus groups to create a Candidate and Opportunity Profile.
Our Candidate and Opportunity profile for the next Lead Pastor is live and can be viewed by potential candidates! You can check out the snapshot version, or the complete Opportunity Profile here.
We’re grateful to share that NL Moore is nearing completion of their nationwide search, having prequalified a strong pool of pastoral candidates based on theology, education, experience, references, and personal assessments. During this time, the Search Team has been actively preparing for interviews and anticipates moving into the interview process next. Thank you for your continued prayers and support as we take these next steps together.
This is our current stage in the process.
Our Search Team begins their discernment process through candidate interviews and personal visits from the pool of candidates in the previous step.
A final candidate is recommended to leadership and confirmed according to Faith’s church bylaws. This includes a candidating weekend, live preaching, meet and greet, etc.
