Feast of Love has reached an important milestone in the development of our organization. Starting now, we are searching for candidates to provide an ongoing Leadership Board which will help continue our shared vision, set direction, and insure the carrying out of grassroots-empowered programs. As Feast of Love continues to grow, hired staff will also be sought to manage this movement. The Leadership Board will team with staff in supporting and encouraging progressive ministries, communities, and individuals within the Church of the Brethren.
The Interim Organizational Team especially hopes that our diverse movement of young adults, women, GLBTQ, ethnic and geographic backgrounds will consider sharing your names or the names of others you sense could provide the needed discerning and leadership skills desired for this seven-member board.
Please realize that the members of this board will need to be able to contribute the skills needed on any major organizational board as well as significant amounts of time to continue creating and expanding the Feast of Love. We plan for this new board to be selected and begin functioning prior to the meeting of Annual Conference this year in St. Louis.
If, after prayerful consideration and a discernment process with persons you trust, you sense a call or a willingness to serve, or you know of persons you think we should consider calling to be board members, please download and fill out the board member application/nomination form. Completed forms or requests for further information can be sent to the Interim Planning Team at info@feastoflove.org.
In order to meet our goal of having a full and functioning board by Annual Conference, all applications and nominations should be made by April 25, 2012. Update: The deadline for board candidates has been extended until May 2. Please contact us ASAP if you are interested in being a potential board candidate.
