Heartland Presbytery
Chosen for Pastoral Residency Program


Partner presbyteries chosen for new pastoral residency program
First group of ministry settings for pilot program, “For Such a Time as This,” comprises four presbyteries across five states . Presbyteries in North and South Dakota, Missouri, Kansas, and Mississippi have been selected as ministry settings for the inaugural year ofFor Such a Time as This,” an innovative Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.) pastoral residency program designed to serve underserved congregations and develop missional pastors. The presbyteries of Heartland, St. Andrew, Northern Plains and South Dakota — the latter two contiguous presbyteries working in partnership — will compose the pilot program’s initial group of ministry settings for 2010. In order to qualify as partner presbyteries, each was asked to identify several small churches that would serve as especially good learning settings for first call pastors. The three presbytery clusters in the program’s first year will have two to four residency churches each, for a total of nine openings. Click for full story:
