 2015 Clergy Evaluations

 
In paragraph 350.1 of the 2012 Book of Discipline states, "Eval uation is a continuous process for formation in servant ministry and servant leadership that must take place in a spirit of understanding and acceptance.  Evaluation serves as a process for pastors to assess their effectiveness in ministry and to discern God's call to continue in ordained ministry.

   The district superintendent, in consultation with the pastor-parish relations committee, will evaluate annually the pastors' effectiveness for ministry... using criteria, processes, and training developed by the cabinet and the Board of Ordained Ministry.  The pastors in local churches shall participate annually in an evaluation with the committee on pastor-parish relations for use in an ongoing effective ministry and for identifying continuing education needs and plans... using criteria, processes, and training developed by the Board of Ordained Ministry and the cabinet."  Click on Evaluations for instructions and evaluation form.

 

New Pastor Orientation 

As part of our welcome to pastors in the Capitol Area South District serving in new appointments, we invite those pastors to join us on Monday, August 3rd at 11:00 AM for a time of fellowship, sharing and connecting.  Please note:  due to water damage at the District Office this event will be held at Reynoldsburg UMC, 1636 Graham Rd., Reynoldsburg, OH.  We will serve lunch and spend some time sharing about clergy clusters, church conferences, and other pertinent information.  In order to help us be better prepared, please let us know if you do not plan to attend by calling or emailing the District Office.
