Interim Pastor Application

The Augustana District wants to assist both congregations and pastors wherever possible. Congregations sometimes need an interim pastor while they are in the process of calling a new pastor. We offer our services to compile a list of pastors who can serve as an Interim Pastor.

If, as a pastor, you are able to serve in this capacity, please fill out and submit the secure form below.

If, as a congregational leader, you are searching for an interim pastor, please feel free to contact the District Service Coordinator, Mark Richardson, for assistance (715-417-1317 or mjrichardson@augustanadistrict.org).

The details contained within this form may also be put to hard copy and sent via an email attachment or mailed to:

"… Erasmus sought to kill what Luther called 'our cause' by making it a mere reformation of the church. When Luther referred to 'our cause,' however, he was … referring to the work of the triune God, no less, and specifically the cause of the Holy Spirit to make life where there is only death. Luther was convinced by Scripture and reason that the Holy Spirit worked by means of preachers who proclaimed salvation in Christ apart from the law by faith alone."
Steven Paulson in the Forward of Gerhard O. Forde's, The Captivation of the Will (Grand Rapids: Wm. B. Eerdmans, 2005), ix.
