Pastoral Call Process
When a congregation calls a pastor, it can be both exciting and stressful. Throughout this journey, remain steadfast in prayer that the Holy Spirit would guide each decision and those who are a part of the process. If you run into any questions along the way, your Circuit Visitor and district office staff are blessed to be of service any way they can.
