Peace Notes

February 9, 2025

Voters’ Meeting Update:  At the voters meeting this past Sunday, the congregation approved the recommendation to call a candidate from one of our seminaries to serve as our next pastor. The appropriate paperwork has been submitted to the district and we will await a response. We should know by the beginning of April if we will be welcoming a graduate pastor who would start sometime this summer. In the meantime, the board approved the formation of a call committee to begin the process of calling a pastor from the field (already serving a congregation). On our call committee are: Jesse Brindle, Doug Butler, Terry Fraser, Bonnie Hart, Ed Kaiser, Kim Rinn, Irene Vaslas, Dick Walker, Elder and Sue Williams. The committee will have initial meetings in February and March. If we do not receive a seminary candidate, we should be in a position to interview and evaluate candidates and issue a call in late spring or early summer. If you have questions about the process please visit with Charley Staab or Kurt Vaaler.

Ash Wednesday is March 5. Noon worship at St. Paul, Northville, evening meal at Prince of Peace at 6pm. Worship at 7pm.
