United Church of Christ Search Process

Our former pastor, Rev. Dr. Kristopher Hewitt, served Ivanhoe for nearly 19 years before accepting a new UCC call beginning August 11, 2024. We have begun the process of calling an Intentional Interim Pastor to lead us as we begin to search and call a new Seated Pastor, the process of which  customarily takes up to two years. We encourage you to join us even during this journey, as we remain an active and engaging congregation where the community you will be welcomed into remains vital and uplifting.
