FROM THE CALL COMMITTEE

Trinity's Call Committee was elected and installed at the Congregation Meeting on February 7, 2010.  We have begun our work with a meeting with Pastor Dan Bollman of the Rocky Mountain Synod and Pastor Jason McSpadden of Spirit of Joy who is our Conference Dean.  They will continue to be resources for us.

We will be attending a retreat with the past and present Congregation Council February 27 and in the meantime we will begin planning for completion of our "Mission Site Profile".  This is a document that will be submitted to the Synod and then available online to potential candidates describing who we are and what we want in our next pastor.  You will hear a lot about this in the next weeks as we implement different ways to get your valuable input for this document.

Our Committee consists of Bob Beckman (Chair), Dave Karst (Vice-Chair), Cheryl Dolan and Susie Stark (Secretaries), Dave Armstrong and Steph Dugger (Members) and Rick Walberg (Alternate and Chaplain).  Youth representatives are Jill Remmers and Alec Schilling.

It is our intention to be available to you both in person and through planned events.  We will keep you informed of process and progress.  We ask for your prayers and your patience.

We journey together,

Trinity Call Committee
