Call Committee Established

Epiphany Lutheran Church is in the process of searching for and calling our next Associate Pastor. In February, Church Council met with Bishop Suzanne Dillahunt and Assistant to the Bishop Ed Williams to discuss the call process. The following week, Church Council met again to consider names for the Call Committee. The goal was to bring together a group that would best represent the many facets and ministries of Epiphany with regular Austin Campus participants and a fair distribution of age and gender. Finally, we felt that a youth representative's input would be beneficial to the committee.

We finished our work and gave the Council President, John Dietrich, the task of contacting the people selected to serve. The response to this call has been very positive, and I believe this group will represent us and serve us well.


Carlin Heimann – Committee Chairperson
Alyssa Embry - Youth Representative
Adrienne Ausdenmoore
Kirsten Light
Ann Painter
Terri Quick
Lindsay Wipperman
Matt Davenport
Greg Eberhart
Anthony Gilkison
Norm Krueckeberg

The group will be meeting soon to gather information about Epiphany to share with potential candidates and to assemble candidate interview questions. One of the key requirements of serving on this committee is to maintain confidentiality, so please keep this in mind if you don't get a lot of information when you ask a committee member about the process.

I am thankful that these men and women have agreed to serve. I ask you to keep them in your prayers as they begin this journey. And what an exciting journey it will be!

Peace,
Pastor Charlie
