- The challenge facing the newly merged St Andrew's Presbyterian Church is that of developing a new identity, which is distinct from its parent churches, and establishing unity among the newly formed membership. The challenge facing the interim pastor is that of nurturing the emergence of that new identity and fostering unity among the people. This needs to take place because St Andrew's is called to be the body of Christ, shaped by the institution, and expressed through community. The church needs to move beyond reverence for the old church covenants to participation in the new covenant of the merged congregation. The most important conclusion reached in this formation takes place naturally through stages over a period of time, namely, that unity is both the community's struggle for identity and the institution's product of goal achievement. The interim pastor as forerunner to the permanent pastor is to be a catalyst and facilitate the process of developing church identity and establishing congregational unity for the future of the Christian body and its promised leader.
