The Nominating Committee will select a Pastor Nominating Committee (PNC) to search for our next Pastor & Head of Staff.

The Pastor Nominating Committee will prepare Westminster’s Ministry Profile Information (MPI).

The MPI will describe Westminster’s mission, the life of our congregation, and the qualities we are seeking in our next Senior Pastor.

The Transition Committee will prepare the Mission Study.

The Mission Study will help us reflect on who we are, the community we serve, and where God may be calling Westminster in the years ahead.

The MPI is posted on our website and with the PC (U.S.A.). Recommendations are sought from the Congregation and other external sources. A firm may be hired to aid in the selection process.

Continue to accept Personal Discernment Profiles from candidates. PNC begins to review additional information on selected candidates, including sermons. Conduct initial interviews of select candidates.

Confidentially visit top candidates at the churches. Make reference calls. In-depth conversation. Pray and discuss candidates. Confer with Presbyter to extend call.

Call congregational Meeting and vote on recommended candidate. Obtain approval from Presbytery of Middle Tennessee. WPC holds an installation service for the Pastor and Head of Staff.
