Youth Director’s Greetings With the resignation of our Youth Director Michael Carlson, the Staff Parish Relations Committee (SPRC) has asked Owen Mosburg to take the Youth Director Position beginning officially October 1 and on an interim basis.  This decision was made for several reasons: he has been serving as a youth leader, has the time to commit to the position, has leadership skills, and has a strong biblical foundation.  Additionally, since we are entering the beginning to the new school year and much of the program has been established, to bring in someone new would not only take time but would likely be disruptive to the continuity already established.  Therefore, the interim position will last through the end of January.  This will give SPRC time to evaluate the position and establish a timetable to seek candidates, if need be.  To do this during the busy Church and Holiday Season would make the task of filling the position quickly very difficult. If you have any questions, please contact a member of the SPRC, Lyn Hawkins, as Chair of the SPRC, or Pastor Kathy. We all recognize the importance of a strong Church Youth program and appreciate your support during this time of transition.
