It's hard to believe we turned the page from 2020 to 2021 almost three weeks ago! That means we have less than two weeks before the job listing for dean of our cathedral is closed to applications. If you know someone whom you think should apply, or know someone who might have a candidate or candidates in mind, please reach out to them as soon as possible and make them aware of the deadline. Here is the application link. We want to make sure our search reaches all potential candidates.    

 

In other news, we have more BIG news. One of our members, Nikki Shenk, recently found out that she is having twins with a due date in late April. In anticipation of some busy days ahead for Nikki and her husband, we have added a new member to our search committee. Kelsey Lindner has agreed to be an "alternate" member of our committee in the event that Nikki is unable to participate in any of the responsibilities ahead. Kelsey will begin sitting in on our weekly meetings this week so she will be up to speed should she need to fill in for Nikki. 

 

Separately, we want to encourage you to contact us directly if you have any questions or comments about our process. We know this is harder to do as we are not seeing each other in person each week so spontaneous conversations aren't possible. If you have a question, please reach out to either Olden or Patrick (our co-chairs) and they will make sure one of us gets back to you quickly.

 

Things will be gearing up quickly for us in the next few weeks, and we will be updating you with our news. Until then, we ask that you keep your search committee in your prayers as we go about the task of finding the next spiritual leader for Christ Church Cathedral.
