 Tools for the Call Process

 

An early step in calling a pastor or other rostered leader is completing a Congregational Mission Profile, a document that describes your congregation's history, ministry, membership, community, and leadership needs.

 

Click on the links in the following table for the "Congregational Mission Profile."  These forms are also available on the CD given to each congregation at the beginning of the call process.

 

First download and install the Formatta Filler program.  This is a free "form filling" program that will make filling out the Congregational Mission Profile much easier.  After you have downloaded the program, double click on the file.  It will automatically install.  (Note:  When the registration page for Formatta Filler opens, just close it.  You do not need to register Formatta Filler.)

 

After Formatta Filler is installed, download the Congregational Mission Profile.  After downloading, double click on the file and it will automatically open the file in Formatta Filler
