On Sunday we held our official vote for our next Lead Pastor. Our candidate Preached the Call during the morning service. With a strong showing of membership participating in the vote, and the witness of many of our church congregation, an overwhelming majority of “Yes” votes were cast.
Details about our Lead Pastor, his family and biography will be made available to everyone soon, as they now undergo the process of communicating their news to their home church families.
We’ve got one “checkmark” left to go on our visual tracker as we conclude our transition season- Commissioning Sunday – with more information to come. We are excited to enter a New Year with our next Lead Pastor who will begin on January 27.
We thank everyone who played a pivotal role in this leg of the journey, to each person for their diligent prayers, and to God for leading and directing us through this transition season! We’d also like to thank Pastor Keith and Esther Smith who have graciously bridged the gap during this season, serving with excellence and bringing us so many applicable and timely encouragement from Scripture. Thanks also to the hard work and dedication of our Board members, Search Committee members, Pastor Jeremy Murdoch and PAOC Western Ontario District, and our amazing Staff members who have given their best during this year! We look forward to all that is to come in 2025 at GTC!
