Change Coming in Pastoral Leadership


April 26, 2019

Dear Sisters and Brothers of Stevensville United Methodist Church,

I am writing to share with you that Bishop Karen Oliveto intends to appoint the Rev. Dr. Charles Alkula to St. Paul’s United Methodist Church in Boulder, Colorado, effective July 1, 2019.


I pray God’s blessing on your congregation and on Charles in this time of transition. I invite you to take the opportunity to thank Pastor Charles for his service with you, and for the gifts that he has shared with you.


I will be working with your Staff Parish Relations Committee and Bishop Oliveto and the Cabinet to identify your next pastoral leadership. We seek to identify a pastor who will help your ministry thrive.


May God’s Spirit enliven and guide your ministry in Stevensville and beyond.


Blessings,
Rev. Jan Witman

District Superintendent, West Montana District
