A couple of big ones but more are coming soon

It’s been a day of multiple phone calls and information so I’m later getting this out than I had planned. I also thought two or places were going to close yesterday but they did not, so there are still some places hanging on right now about to fill, which will mean others will open.

In addition I posted a few weeks ago and ended up losing that post so I’ll repost those today. The key to this blog being a help is information, so if you know of anything in any area you have not seen on here help the guys looking by posting it or letting me know at dale@edge.net. Thanks for all of your help.

I guess the big news of the weekend is that Hendersonville announced yesterday that they have hired Kelly Campbell as their new pulpit minister. Kelly has been in the Cookeville area for about 20 years. Of course this means that Jerrie Barber will wind up his work as interim there. You can learn more about his work at www.barberclippings.com. There is a lot of info there that could help churches in hiring. Or you can email him at jerrie@barberclippings.com.

Sort of related but not directly Fairview in Williamson country has hired Bradley Tate. He is moving to Tennessee from Houston, TX. How’s that related to Hendersonville you ask? Well, I’ll tell you. Jerrie Barber co-works with John Parker in this interim work and Brother Parker has been the interim at Fairview. So, John will also be available to do a new interim work. You can contact him at johnparker22@comcast.net.

The New Lasea church near Columbia, TN is now looking for a preacher. Their preacher of the last several years is retiring. They run about 150 or so on Sundays. That’s all I know about that one.

Justin, who is a deacon at the Hardin County congregation in Elizabethtown, IL is tells me they are looking. They run about 75 on Sundays. Contact them at hccchurchofchrist@hotmail.com or call 618 289-4515.

The 29th and Yale church in Tulsa is looking for a new pulpit man. I visited that church about 5 or 6 years ago and it was an impressive work at that time. To learn more go to: http://www.29thandyale.com/

We posted the Jackson Heights church in in Florence a while back but I’ve been asked to mention is again. WWW.JHCC.ORG. This church has a rich history and they seem excited about a good future. Send resumes to :  office@jhcc.org . 

The League Street Church of Christ in Sulphur Springs, TX is looking. All I have is a physical mailing address: 1100 S League Street Sulphur Springs, TX 75482.

Adam Faughn my co-host on iPreach scoops that the Northside church of Christ in Blytheville, Arkansas is looking for a preacher.  It's a small congregation with about 50 in attendance. For information, contact Marcus Kortan at 870-740-4834 ormeekortan@hotmail.com  

Trae Durden gets the scoop on the Chaffee Road church in Jacksonville, FL. They have a website, I’ll let you google it.

OK, when you do this sort of thing you get some, well, unusual, postings. Here is one, slightly cleaned but still a tad confusing so I’ll let you decide what to do with it: Brothers and Sisters, We, the New Hope Church of Christ, are sad to announce that Josh and Tonya James are moving to Batesville,MS. We are looking for a minister who is retirement age and can accept the salary we provide. We also provide a small home. Must be a speaker of sound doctrine, comfortable using KJV, NO BAD HISTORY or  QUESTIONABLE BACKGROUND. Look forward to hearing from you. Reply to this e-mail or mdbj@frontiernet.net    Thanks, Michael Burcham.

OK, now, have some fun, share what you know.
