Pastoral Call Committee Commissioned

On Sunday, June 23, FELC was delighted to welcome Deacon Darcy Mittelstaedt, Bishop’s Associate for Lifelong Learning & Faith Formation in the Southwestern Texas Synod. Deacon Darcy preached and led our Faith of A Child time in worship.

We commissioned & installed our Pastoral Call Committee. This has been a time for reflection and prayer, a time for examination and seeking, a time for expectation and hope. We seek to call a pastor of word and sacrament to lead and serve with us among God’s people. To read and reflect on the call committee installation liturgy, click here.

Deacon Darcy will offer support to our Pastoral Call Committee as they begin the discernment and interview process for our next pastor.

During the liturgy on Sunday, we also remembered the Emanuel Nine martyrs & made renewal to the work of racial justice & equity.
