Pastor Opening in So. Cal. area

November 6, 2008 By Karen Sloan Leave a Comment

Somewhere out there is an incredibly right person for the call listed below.  For five years, while in seminary and then searching for my first call (2000-2005), this church community was my own home.  I love the people here dearly and cannot more wholeheartedly encourage pastors who fit the search descriptors to apply.  — Karen

=======================

First Presbyterian Church of Altadena (CA) is looking for a pastor who is:

  • conversant in the missional church frameworks
  • experienced in multicultural leadership
  • committed to intergenerational faith life

We have an almost 100 year heritage as a Japanese American church and now Sunday mornings have 45% diversity. We are next to Pasadena, thus, enjoy the resources and challenges of this urban-edge location. More info at altadenapresbyterian.org.

About Karen Sloan
Growing up at Menlo Park Presbyterian Church fostered a meaningful personal relationship with Christ, but it was only when I went to Fuller seminary that I began to understand what being Presbyterian meant. For my Fuller years I was active at a small multi-ethnic Presbyterian church that was going through a process of Appreciative Inquiry. In the fall of '06 I was ordained to working in campus ministry and my first book was published. When I came across Emergent four years ago I was overjoyed to connect with other people asking similar questions, and keep returning to Emergent for more conversations. That’s some of presbymergent me – thank you for asking.
