Search process<br />

Dear fellow Parishioners, here is a<br />
short update about our ongoing<br />
search for our new Rector.<br />
15 February was <strong>the</strong> closing date<br />
for applications. It seems we are<br />
quite a popular place to be as<br />
according to Bishop Pierre we had<br />
nearly 30 applications. When <strong>the</strong><br />
Bishop has processed <strong>the</strong>se<br />
applications he will send us <strong>the</strong><br />
names and information on around<br />
10 people whom he considers<br />
suitable for <strong>the</strong> post and who he<br />
feels would fit in <strong>with</strong> CtK.<br />
A small committee of Vestry<br />
members, including <strong>my</strong>self, Abiola<br />
Sarnecki, Paul Neaum, Bret Durret,<br />
will <strong>the</strong>n get toge<strong>the</strong>r and <strong>do</strong><br />
telephone interviews <strong>with</strong> <strong>the</strong>se<br />
candidates. Hopefully we will have<br />
three or four candidates who will<br />
<strong>the</strong>n be invited to come to Frankfurt<br />
for a weekend, meet <strong>with</strong> <strong>the</strong><br />
Vestry and go through personal<br />
interviews.<br />
At <strong>the</strong> end of <strong>the</strong>se visits we may<br />
have found our new Rector. If we<br />
feel we are not satisfied, we can<br />
ask <strong>the</strong> Bishop for more candidates<br />
until we are sure we have found <strong>the</strong><br />
right person.<br />
These are very exciting times,<br />
please keep <strong>the</strong> Vestry in <strong>you</strong>r<br />
prayers as we continue in this<br />
journey.<br />

It is that time of year again for our<br />
annual fundraising campaign for<br />

Episcopal Church and in Provinces<br />
of <strong>the</strong> Anglican Communion in <strong>the</strong><br />
