FORGED IN LOVE,
CONTINUING IN GRACE

St. Brigit Community in Transition

September 2, 2019
 
 
For I know the plans I have for you declares the Lord,
plans to prosper you and not to harm you,
plans to give you a hope and a future.
Jeremiah 29:11
 

 


Please pray the following Prayers for Transition of Clergy Leadership as part of your daily devotions:

"Almighty God, giver of every good gift, look graciously on your Church and so guide the minds of those who shall choose an Interim Priest and a Vicar for this congregation that we may receive a faithful pastor who will care for your people and equip us for our ministries; through Jesus Christ our Lord.  Amen"

"Almighty God, giver of every good gift, look graciously on your Church, and so guide the mind of those who shall choose a vicar for this congregation, that we may receive a faithful pastor, who will care for your people and equip us for our ministries; through Jesus Christ our Lord. Amen". 

 

Dear Friends in Christ,

Your Bishop’s Committee Community met with a candidate for the position of Vicar this past week.  The candidate was a bright, friendly and compassionate person and our time with the candidate was meaningful. However, the BCC has decided to not call this candidate to be the Vicar at St. Brigit.  I have talked at length with the Reverend Canon Alex Dyer at the Diocese about our interview and he will talk with Bishop Kym Lucas about our decision.

The Rev. Canon Dyer assured me that St. Brigit is competitive at both the national and local level. There will be other candidates for us to interview. In the meantime, we will continue with supply priests for Sunday services and the St. Brigit Community will also continue with what we do best….“ Love the Lord your God with all your heart and with all your soul and with all your mind. This is the first and greatest commandment. And the second is like it : Love your neighbor as yourself. All the Law and the Prophets hang on these two commandments.”  Matthew 22:36-40  (NIV)

God’s Peace and Blessings to All,

Peggy Nelson, Bishop's Warden
