Please join us for cake in the coffee shop after the service and congratulate these young men and women on a job well done!

Please join the pastoral search committee in welcoming Pastor Kirby Oaks as a candidate for the Lead Pastor position at Living Hope! We are delighted to have him and his wife Jessica, son Eli (11) and daughter Lizby (8) with us this weekend.

Pastor Kirby is currently an Assistant Pastor at Sheridan Wesleyan Church in Sheridan, Wyoming. He served in the Army Reserves/National Guard for 13 years, obtained a Master of Divinity at Indiana Wesleyan and has served in pastoral roles for 7 years. He is originally from Sioux Falls. We, as a committee, feel his vision for the church and passion for worship, service and community is in line with Living Hope's vision and passion.

Please remember:
· Sunday May 13th, after the opportunity to meet him, experience his sermons and a week of prayer seeking God's will, we encourage you to attend a congregational meeting after 2nd service to vote on if we'd like to call Pastor Kirby to serve at our church. We apologize for any inconvenience for doing this on Mother's Day but feel it's best to make a timely decision on this matter.

If you have any questions, feel free to contact any search committee member: Brent Arntzen, Christine Pickard, Dale Ziebarth, Dorothy Oetken, Floyd Rummel, Kristine Whitethorn, Mike Aldridge, Ryan McCullough and Tess Nelson.

Sincerely,

Pastoral Search Committee
