Rector Search
We are seeking a priest with a shepherd’s heart and a leader capable of managing a complex parish: a preacher rooted in Scripture and the historic faith; a confident and humble leader of clergy and staff; a bridge-builder across cultures and generations; and a faithful steward, in partnership with the vestry, of the resources and vision entrusted to this church.
Interested candidates are invited to review our Parish Profile and Job Description\Application Instructions. Inquiries may be directed to: searchteam@redeemergso.org
Application materials must be received no later than September 3, 2026.
Rector Search Updates
August 2026
Since posting the rector position, the next main task of the Rector Search Team was to hear from our church family. Throughout late July and August, the Search Team held four congregational input/listening sessions and collected additional input from a church-wide survey. The information and feedback heard will add to the framework for interviewing and evaluating candidates as the application window comes to a close on September 3rd.
July 2026
Parish Profile and Rector Job Description was created and posted to the ACNA, Diocese of Christ Our Hope, and seminary job boards. A congregational survey was emailed to the church and opportunities for the Search Team to hear congregational input were announced.
June 2026
The Rector Search Team began meeting and a Prayer Guide for the Rector Search was emailed to the church. We encourage our whole church to continually pray through this 40-day guide for the duration of the search process.
