Please plan to attend as many of these events as you can. The candidate will preach at all three English-language worship services. The candidate will attend the Nuer-language worship service.
A gentle reminder that we are all asked to keep the candidate’s identity in confidence, including after the visit, for the sake of the candidate, the candidate’s family and the candidate’s home congregation.
On Sunday, June 20, following the 10:45 am worship service, a special congregational meeting and vote will be conducted to call the pastoral candidate.
