The interim period between one pastor leaving and the next pastor arriving can be a special time of God moving in a congregation. Instead of sitting back and waiting for the next person to arrive, the interim time creates a wonderful opportunity to address issues, questions, concerns, vision, and the church’s health. Turning the interim period into an intentional interim period can make a tremendous difference in the future of your church.
So how you choose to handle the interim period is very important. There are many decisions to be made.
To assist a church in successfully navigating this interim period, Texas Baptist’s Interim Church Services provides a network of pastors and ministers with significant ministry experience who have completed specialized training in the interim ministry process.
