Ione Community Church welcomes interim pastor Ione Community Church has welcomed a new temporary interim minister to their church over the last month. For- mer pastor, Stacy Shelton, accepted a call to the Med- ford Disciples of Christ church and moved in May. Pastor Richard W. Jensen began his interim ministry with the church on Sunday, Aug. 6. The role of an in- terim ministry is to provide pastoral leadership to the congregation during the transitional time between permanent ministers. The church will be electing a search committee at the Church Council meeting this week, whose role will be to do a formal search for the next minister. Richard W. Jensen is an ordained minister in the Disciples of Christ Church and has training in intentional interim ministry, which means he has chosen to minister to churches who are in need of transitional leadership. Pastor Jensen has a Masters of Divinity from Vanderbilt Divinity School, Nashville, TN and a Doctorate of Ministry from Christian Theological Seminary in Indianapolis, IN. He was ordained in Kansas in 1973. He has served churches in Indiana, Kansas, Missouri, Nebraska and South Dakota and has been working as an interim minister since 2011. He most recently served the First Christian Church in Mesa, AZ. His wife is also a pastor and is serving an interim ministry in Boi- se, ID. Because of this he will serve only 3/4 time, a minimum of three Sundays and 14—18 weekdays per month. Regular pulpit sup- ply will occur on the other Sundays. Pastor Jensen will be available for the pastoral needs of the community and congregation such as counseling, weddings, fu- nerals, and hospital calls. His Omaha, NE cell phone number is 402-301-3279. Feel free to call him if you are in need of such services. Pastor Jensen will be living in the parsonage next to the church. Please stop by and welcome him to the com- munity. The church’s Sunday services are at 10 a.m. at 470 E. Main St., Ione. For more information, call 541- 422-7530.
