Selecting the Transition Team

Dear Member of New Garden Friends Meeting:

In meeting for business, the meeting approved having a Transition Team to help with discernment during this interim time. The objectives of the Team are to: (1) become a safe, trusting and open group where members can share their disappointments and concerns, (2) customize the intentional interim ministry process to fit our meeting, (3) lead the interim process, while other leaders continue the ongoing leadership functions of “running” the meeting and, (4) be responsible to recommend the formation of a Pastor Search Committee.

I need your assistance in establishing a Team that will work closely with me over the next few months. Please prayerfully consider who you think is best suited to fill this role. Qualities in a person who will serve on the Transition Team include being trusted, respected, prayerful, spiritually wise, a regular attendee, able to speak for groups within the faith community (not representatives, but representative), and willing to listen to all perspectives.

At the bottom of this form please write the names of up to four members who you think meet the stated qualifications. It is important that you also keep in mind the need to balance the Transition Team with gender, younger/older adults, and longtime/short time members. I will use this information as I work with MM&C to finalize the Team. Please return this letter with your suggestions directly to the office or me. The deadline is Sunday, October 23.

Please note that the Transition Team will not have any authority other than what is required to carry out their tasks, and will disband when they have finished their work.

Sincerely,

Ashley Wilcox

Interim Pastor
