2025 Mission Study Report
Read or download a copy
​
Our new Mission Study Report has been approved by the Session and forwarded to the Presbytery of San Jose's Committee on Ministry for its approval. This represents an important step forward in our search for a new Pastor / Head of Staff.
​
In the words of its introduction, the Mission Study Committee wrote that it intends the report "to be a resource and guide for Stone Church’s future and for our future Pastor Nominating Committee by:
​
-
Uniting our congregation around a common vision of who we are and aspire to be,
-
Inspiring our Session’s leadership through a fuller understanding of the spiritual, human, physical and financial resources of Stone Church,
-
Informing candidates for our pastoral position about who we are through the story of our journey and how that has led us to the path we see ahead."
​​
The full report is 42 pages plus a 192 page appendix section documenting the sources, surveys and interviews on which the report is based.
