Rector Search 

The Diocese has received names of candidates, and the position is now closed.  We thank all the candidates who have put themselves forward for consideration!  When the Diocese has completed an initial screening of the candidates they will forward the candidate names and applications to the Search Committee, who will then screen and conduct video interviews with candidates.

St. Francis Rector Search Prayer
Almighty and everliving God,
the Father of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ,
send forth your Holy Spirit
to guide the Search Committee, Vestry and parish family of St. Francis in the Valley,
to be of one heart and mind in our search for a rector
who will be your faithful servant and who will minister to your flock.

By your light O Lord,
draw us to those with vision and passion for St. Francis' future.
Guide them as they discern your call.
Raise up for us a faithful pastor,
a dynamic preacher of your Gospel,
to shepherd us as your flock,
strengthen our ministries, 
and work with us in building up your kingdom.

May we strive to be your heart and hands in our parish
​and be a light of love to all.     Amen.
