The Eliot Church Search Committee is delighted to announce that by unanimous vote of a quorum of members in attendance at church on Sunday, November 23, The Eliot Church has called our next minister: Rev. Adam Istbitsky! Rev. Isbitsky joined us for a meet and greet on Saturday, followed by preaching at Sunday's worship service. A Special Meeting of the church was held immediately following the service, during which Rev. Isbitsky patiently awaited the results of our meeting with a member of the search committee at the Charles River Coffee House.
Remaining members of the Search Committee presented information to the congregation about the search process, Rev. Isbitsky's background, and his expected role as a part-time (75%) Designated Term Pastor of the church. Following some valuable Q&A, the Moderator called for a vote to call Rev. Isbitsky as our next minister, and those in attendance were unanimously in favor. Rev. Isbitsky was called to return to the church by the ringing of the church bell (and a text, just in case)!
Rev. Isbitsky is currently wrapping up his call with Second Congregational Church in Beverly, and he will be starting his call at the Eliot Church on Monday January 12, with his first worship service on Sunday, January 18. As a Designated Term Pastor, the goal he will be working with the congregation to accomplish over his 3 year term is revitalization of our church.
In the intervening weeks, we will continue to be served by out-of-pulpit ministers, many of whom we've come to know over the last several months as the search process continued.
