Pastoral Appointment Announcement

Pastoral Appointment Announcement

Apr 29, 2026

This month, it was announced that Rev. Dr. Susan Moudry has been appointed to serve as Lead Pastor at Chippewa UMC. Susan joined Faith UMC as Lead Pastor in 2024. She and her family have been a blessing to Faith UMC and, while we will miss sharing Sundays with them, we are confident that she will continue to be a blessing at Chippewa UMC. Her Farewell Service will be on Sunday, May 31st at 10:30, with a potluck fellowship to follow. Please join us in celebrating Susan and her family!

We’re also happy to announce that Rev. Jim Sands has been appointed to serve here at Faith UMC as Pastor, in a new charge alongside Oakmont UMC. Pastor Jim comes to us most recently from the Aliquippa First and Monaca UMC charge. He is a passionate preacher, teacher, and mentor, and brings a Wesleyan, forward-looking theology to his work. Pastor Jim’s first service with Faith UMC will be on Sunday, July 5th at our new worship time of 10:30am. Please join us in welcoming him and his family!

Thank you for your ongoing support and celebration of the Sands and Moudry families. We’re so grateful for their part in our community and look forward to what comes next.
