Lead Pastor Search Committee

We are now on the path of what VCM calls “the mirror and the map”. The mirror is the data they gave us, which came directly from our surveys. What is next for CBC on this journey? We have been given a lot of verbal “map directives” and will also receive a very comprehensive written report detailing our Assessment. Pastor Carl will continue to lead us forward, as our IILP (intentional interim Lead Pastor) is encouraging us to pray, listen to the Holy Spirit and really dig into this assessment and work with the elders and staff to embrace the reality of the assessment, and then act on it.

From Pastor Carl Sutter: “I’m excited to work and collaborate with you to discern God’s calling and direction and blessing for Century Baptist Church. May the Lord be glorified through our dedication and work together!”

This announcement is to inform you that we have invited a pastor to visit our congregation, the weekend of April 4th, with the intention of voting on him, as our Intentional Interim Lead Pastor (IIP). This vote would not take place till the following Sunday, April 13th.

On February 25th, and again on March 6th our committee conducted virtual interviews with this Intentional Interim Pastor candidate. Our next step is to make a recommendation to the Elders, regarding calling this candidate to visit our church family.

Greetings to our Century family, from your Pastoral Search Committee. This will be the February 2025 edition of our monthly communication. Several weeks ago, you received communication from our leadership that we are about to enter Phase One of our Lead Pastor search. This will include calling an Interim Pastor. A question that has been asked of many of us “why do we need an interim pastor?

Greetings to our Century family, from your Pastoral Search Committee. This is our first of many communications to ensure that the church body of Century Baptist Church is aware of our search for a new Lead Pastor.
