Pastor Candidate Visit

We are excited to share that Andrew Middlekauff, a candidate for our pastoral position, will be joining us at Lake Tapps Community Church from April 9th-13th for a time of connection, ministry, and discernment. During his visit, Andrew will participate in various church activities, meet with leadership, and spend time getting to know our congregation. Andrew, wife, Edith, and two of their four children, Joy and John, will join him from April 11-13. We encourage you to take time to connect with the Middlekauffs and extend a warm welcome during their visit.

Sunday April 13th is when Andrew will preach during our morning worship service. This will be a key opportunity to experience his teaching style, leadership heart, and vision for ministry. Following the service, we will hold a congregational vote on his candidacy. This vote is a vital step in determining whether we believe God is calling Andrew to be our next pastor.

As we approach this time, please be in prayer. It says in James 1:5

“If any of you lacks wisdom, let him ask God, who gives generously to all without reproach, and it will be given him.”

Ask God to provide clarity and discernment for both our church family and the Middlekauff family. Pray for Andrew and for his family as they consider this potential transition.

In the meantime, please check the church website for information about the Middlekauffs; listen to Pastor Andrews sermons and attend the upcoming events the week they are here.

For the elders,

Pastor Bob
