The Call Committee met for its first meeting Jan. 7. During their time together, committee members selected a chairperson and secretary, and Circuit Counselor Rev. Randy Benscoter educated the group about options for a vacancy pastor vs. transitional pastor.
Members of the committee include Aaron Jenkins (Chairperson), Sarah Schafer (Secretary), Linsey Hartke, Bob Onsgard, David Overgaard, Beth Barr, Phyllis Royston, and Jill Wright. At the meeting, Micheal Spencer stepped down from the committee, but Roger Holtzen agreed to take his role. Calvin Miller and Joseph Katzman serve as advisors.
The committee has called a Congregational Voter’s meeting Jan. 25 immediately following worship to share a proposal for pastoral services after Pastor Dennis’ retirement. Everyone is welcome to attend and BSLC members are eligible to vote.
The committee will next meet on Jan. 27 at 6:30pm to begin the next step of the call process, a self study, as outlined by the district.
