* Leadership Enhancement Team will hold a training for new and continuing Congregational Coaches on February 6.

* We rejoice in significant developments with a couple of pastoral searches for congregations who’ve had openings for more than two years. And we continue to watch for God’s activity.  

* Belmont Mennonite Church recently called Philip Schmidt, who currently pastors at Tabor Mennonite in Newton, Kansas, to serve as Pastor of Mission, Vision, and Worship. He’ll begin in April, joining Mandy Yoder on Belmont’s pastoral team.

* We invite your prayers for congregations with recent or upcoming pastoral leadership changes: Waterford (death of Terry Zehr), Parkview (resignation of Mark Stahl), Berkey Avenue (resignation of Dan Schrock), and Holdeman (resignation of Randy Detweiler).
