I'm new to the group and hoping someone here can help me. I'm a member of Maryland UMC church. Yesterday we were informed that our Associate Pastor was being...
Steve, I don't know any of the "official" stuff. But when our bishop, at the time, tried to re-assign our pastor of many years and who was loved by everyone,...
... You can have the PPRC ask for an explaination of the re-assignment from the DS. Some will do this. Otherwise, the issue is simple. A bishop is concerned...
... A good bishop should take that under consideration. Some do and some do not. My home conference NCNY and the one I serve in GNJ both have bishops who...
I understand your concerns completely. My former church went through this same sort of thing a number of years back. The replacement pastor was not well...
The process of making pastoral changes begins with the Church (through the PPRC) and the pastors advising the bishop (through the DS) concerning the need for...
I want to thank everyone for their input on our issue. It seems to be the consensus that no one agrees with these being unilateral decisions made without the...
... That is correct. Most times it will be because someone wanted a change. However, not to uncommonly, the bishop will make a change either because he felt...
Steve, How does your pastor feel? And has he communicated effectively any feeling he has about this move. I can only assume that he is sad to leave, as anyone...
... I would encourage you to do so. However.... ... stating that if we have an opinion on this subject, we should communicate it. The flyer would include the...
I hate to chime in here, particularly with moves. Congregations don't always know what is going on in the bigger picture -- not to say that bishops don't make...

In all the answers to why and how pastors are moved no one has mentioned that they have prayed about this issue. I assume the Bishops spend time in prayer and...

Lynn, you are right. Much prayer goes into the decisions made by the Bishop and his Cabinet. There is a real effort to do God's will and send the right man...
I have to agree that reassigning pastors is a good thing. We need to hear different ideas from different pastors. If we stay with one pastor for many years...
