STAFF RELATIONS NEWS October 21, 2026 Ru-Lee Weller Passman Hello, Calvary! As you know, Christina Ebben, our Church Business Administrator (CBA), resigned effective September 30 to accept full time employment. You are therefore probably curious about next steps. Here is a general outline: Ye Ye Wong in Accounting is running Payroll on an interim basis. Pastor Anne is sending out credit card statements and running Positive Pay each week, a fraud-detection system for our bank. Many thanks to them both! Our next step is to identify an accounting partner to help us through year-end processing and any difficult accounting questions that may arise. We may need bookkeeping support during this time as well. We are undertaking an evaluation of the CBA role based on our experiences during the 5 months Christina was with us. We want to make sure we take advantage of lessons learned to tweak the job description and recruitment process before we begin another candidate search. With the holiday season quickly approaching - a notoriously poor time for recruiting as well as a busy time in the life of the church - we plan to defer any active recruitment until the new year. In the interim, various aspects of the CBA role will revert to the staff and volunteers who performed them in the past. Thank you for your patience during this time!
