Abstract
  • Denial, anger, and grief experienced by a congregation when faced with the leave-taking of a beloved pastor can impede transition tasks necessary to welcome a new pastor. The author developed recommendations for denominational presence and support; a brochure for departing pastors with emphasis on facets of healthy leave-taking; a brochure for church councils emphasizing common reactions to pastoral transition. The lament tradition is explored and serves as the basis of a prayer guide for members who experience deep sorrow, anger, or even delight at the prospect of new pastoral leadership. Materials were validated by panels of experts and field tested.
