RECTOR SEARCH PROCESS

The Parish Profile is finished!

Thanks to all of you for your commitment to completing the CAT and participating in our many listening sessions, the Parish Profile committee was able to articulate our identity and what we are looking for in our next Rector in the form of the Parish Profile. Steven Wilco, Interim Canon to the Ordinary of the Diocese of Western Massachusetts has the profile and will begin next steps in the search process. The Search Committee, headed by Marilyn Benoit, will be working closely with Steven to review candidates and set up interviews.

If you have any questions, please contact Marilyn Benoit at 508-208-6274 or at mlbenoit@comcast.net.

What is a Parish Profile?

The parish profile is the document on which a prospective applicant for rector will base their decision to take the application further. It needs to be an appealing document to attract the right person. It needs to give a sense of ‘what it is like’ in this place and should give information beyond the purely technical. It is a ‘shop window’ of life in your parish.
It offers them an understanding of:

  • who we are

  • what your vision of the future of your parish is

  • what you can offer

  • what you expect
