Our beloved Pastor and Head of Staff Don Lincoln is retiring after serving over 20 years as Westminster’s Lead Pastor. In preparation, the Pastor Nominating Committee (PNC) was formed to shepherd the process of recruiting Don’s successor. Each member of the Committee was nominated, vetted and approved by Westminster’s Personnel Committee, Session, and congregation.
The PNC is composed of eleven devoted Westminster congregants, with a wide range of talents, both professional and personal, each serving the church in myriad ways. They bring unique and loving perspectives to this God-led task and have a combined 155 years of service to Westminster! PNC member biographies can be found by clicking on the link below.
The PNC was recently trained by the Donegal Presbytery, and the PNC projects that the role of Lead Pastor will be filled by the summer of 2022. You can find an updated timeline of this process by clicking on the link below.
The PNC aims to keep the congregation fully appraised of its progress. Periodic updates will be distributed via Westminster’s weekly update and can also be found by clicking on the link below.
