Pastor Opening in So. Cal. area

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

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.
