The Search Team recommends St. Thomas continue with a ministry team:
One full-time Ordered Ministry Person and one full-time Ordered Ministry Person shared 50/50 with Foothills United Church. We recommend a Job Share Agreement be entered into with Foothills United Church for the sharing of a minister. The Search Team recommends the combination of two Ordered Ministry Personnel to form the ministry team of equals.
