Committee Guidelines and Forms

2011 Annual Report

One of the things I truly appreciate about our Presbyterian polity is how our leadership is chosen. It is not chosen for us through a bishop who taps someone on the shoulder. Charismatic individuals cannot appoint themselves “the boss.” Instead, we call forward individuals with particular gifts and talents for service in a particular time and place. Together we discern the Spirit’s leading of the whole community.

The participation of the members of the presbytery in the nominating process is its greatest strength and its greatest challenge. The Committees and Officers of the Presbytery are only as good as your participation in this process. This is your presbytery and its governance is a direct result of those you nominate and elect to govern, so if there is some kind of change you would like to see, “Nominate the change you wish to see.”

From October 2010 – September 2011 the Nominating Committee of the Presbytery:

• Attended the Presbytery’s new clergy orientation to invite participation in the committees of the Presbytery
• Solicited the members of the Presbytery for nominations to the committees of the Presbytery
• Placed 33 names in nomination to serve the committees of the Presbytery
• Placed four names in nomination for co-chair or chair of a committee
• Invited nominations to the office of Vice-Moderator
• Studied applications and interviewed five nominees for the office of Vice-Moderator placing one name in nomination at the May Presbytery meeting
• Invited nominations for Commissioners to General Assembly 2012

A tremendous amount of time and energy went into the nominees referenced above. Each nominee represents several phone and/or email exchanges, as well as three or more individuals who declined to be nominated. Thank you to Susan Quinn Bryan, Mary Ann Jacobs, Sam Stare, Mark Kremzar, Jerry Pittman, Julia Dickey, Lydia Morgan, and Holly Robertson for their hard work and dedication.

Respectfully submitted,
Michelle Bacon
Chair, October 2010 – September 2011
