Dear Church Family,<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We all share in the nominating responsibility for the leaders of our church. The Nominating Committee has been in touch with every district in the denomination, but we seek your help as ambassadors to stir up the spirit of calling.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

A couple of strategies:<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    \n
  1. Be in touch with a couple leaders in your congregation and\/or district. Together, check out the 2025 leadership openings and personally, prayerfully brainstorm with them a few names. Then, make the nomination.<\/li>\n\n\n\n
  2. Take a quiet moment to prayerfully nominate a couple folks yourself. Anyone can make a nomination.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n\n\n\n

    Go to www.brethren.org\/ac\/nominations<\/a> for our nominations resources including a link to a downloadable bulletin insert you can use in your congregation.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

    Through a spirit of prayerful nomination, may God continue to raise up leaders for the church.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
