After serving CCLW for the past two years as CCLW’s Children’s Ministry Director, Monica Hussman is stepping down from her position. Monica has served CCLW in outstanding fashion for a total of seven years in our Children’s Ministry program, and we are thankful for her devotion. It would be fair to say Monica has earned her time of rest. However, this is not her retirement. The good news is Monica will continue her part-time role as our Communications and Marketing Coordinator. We are grateful that she will continue to assist Children’s Ministry until we hire her replacement and will assist the new person when needed. She is now looking forward to attending church services with her husband, Nathan. On behalf of the CCLW Leadership Council, we say a big thank you to Monica for her past, present and future contributions to CCLW.
Last year the 2022 Leadership Council budgeted an additional part-time person in the fourth quarter of 2023 to serve as a youth minister, which was approved by the congregation during our annual meeting. Thus, the LC and our new Senior Pastor, Ryan Lokkesmoe, have had several discussions regarding both the children’s and youth ministries. In a collaborative effort, we have decided to hire a part-time (30 hours per week) “Kids and Youth Minister.” This strategic hire is aligned with one of the LC’s top priorities to build a children’s and youth ministry that attracts families and serves them well in meeting their children’s needs.
We are asking our congregation for names of people who would be interested in serving on the Search Team for a “Kids and Youth Minister.” Please see the attached job description. The Search Team will be asked to meet on a consistent basis between early to mid-June through August (this includes video and face-to-face meetings). Our desire is to hire the right candidate to start mid-August. Ryan and the LC will post the job description on several websites, but word of mouth always works well. Thus, we encourage our congregation to share the job description with others.
If you are interested in serving on the Search Team or if you would like to refer a name, please contact Doug Meyer-Cuno at Doug@empoweredleadership.com or call 704-905-4712. Please check first with the person whose name you are referring to make sure they are willing to serve.
Resumes should be sent to searchteam@cclw.org.
Respectfully submitted,
Doug Meyer-Cuno
Leadership Council Chairman
