It all started when...
On February 10, 2024 Ernie announced that after much prayer and conversation with his wife Elaine, that he has decided to take early retirement. They plan to move to Raleigh to be closer to family and more involved in their grandchildren’s lives. We are so grateful for Ernie’s 8+ years of leadership as Senior Pastor & Head of Staff.
The Transition Team was formed and approved by Session on February 25, 2024.
“Our goal is to move a quickly as possible, with thoughtful discernment, to locate an appropriate Transitional/Interim Pastor to lead us in preparing for our next Senior Pastor and Head of Staff. We want to be as transparent as possible throughout the process.”
