Concord’s New Pastor – Julia Burkley
On May 4, Julia received a unanimous vote of approval from Concord’s congregation. We are so thrilled! The plan is for Julia to start full-time with Concord the first full week of August. Meanwhile, we will keep her updated on church work and joys.
Many thanks to the Pastor Nominating Committee for 15 months of meetings, deliberations, reviews, and personal visits. Thanks also to Pastor Eric for his commitment to Concord which enabled the PNC to nominate an outstanding candidate.

Most Sundays following worship
in the front of the sanctuary
We are currently working on a do-it-yourself, updated photo directory and would like to try to finish up by August, when new pastor Julia Burkley arrives. Most Sundays, Terri Jones will be taking photos in the front of the sanctuary during Gathering Time. Stop by before or after snacking to have your picture taken and to update your contact info.
We will be continuing this process over the next few months, so don’t worry if you can’t make it this week. Watch Concord Connects for future opportunities. Deacons will also be working on getting current photos of our homebound members. Please don’t be concerned if you’re not an “official” church member – if you are part of our Concord Family, we want to include you!
