The Search Committee has completed its visits to meet the four candidates for rector and to hear them preach. In all cases, the committee was warmly received. We appreciate your prayers for safe travel. We are in the process of deciding which candidates to bring to Valdosta. Please continue your prayers for the search committee "that their hearts and minds may be open to what your spirit is saying and for the priest whose name is yet known to you alone, that he be open to your call."
We appreciate your patience and support throughout this search. -- Phyllis Holland, Chair
