Introducing Pastor Mike and the Malmin family

Our pastoral candidate was announced in morning services today. Mike Malmin is an Associate Pastor at Mountain View Church of the Nazarene in Olympia, WA. I know Mike a little bit from my days on the Washington Pacific district. He's funny, serious and deep all at the same time. I think you'll enjoy meeting he and his family next Sunday the 21st. There will be a combined service on the 21st at 10:30 and Mike will be preaching. After the service there will be a potluck and you'll have a chance to meet the entire family. Mike's wife, Anita is the sister of Paul Barber Jr., a pastor on our district at True North Nazarene in Hayden, Idaho. They have two children Jonathan (age 13) and Emma (age 11).

Mike's complete resume and bio will be on the church webpage shortly.

What has Pastor Mike been twittering about?

Are you ready for some football?

Even if you aren't a football fan chances are you will watch the Super Bowl this week. Why don't you invite somebody over to watch it with you? Who wouldn't say yes to football, food and friends? Go ahead, I double dog dare you!!

Pastoral search update

An announcement was made at Wenatchee Nazarene this morning that the church board has unanimously decided on a pastoral candidate to present to the congregation. More info will be coming on the candidate on February 14th (first service was mistakenly told they would receive info next Sunday, sorry). The candidate will be in Wenatchee for our service on February 21st. More info will be forthcoming on the details as we get closer.

All church members age 15 and older will have an opportunity to vote on the pastoral candidate on February 28th.

Remain in prayer as you have been for these important next steps in the calling of a new pastor for Wenatchee Nazarene.
