The St. John’s Board of Directors, acting on behalf of the congregation, has extended a call to Ms. Christy Wood to serve as our next principal. Ms. Wood is currently serving as principal of Lamb of God Lutheran School in Las Vegas, Nevada. Prior to that, she served for 16 years as an assistant principal at West Portal Lutheran School in San Francisco. Ms. Wood has advanced degrees in curriculum and educational leadership, and is currently pursuing a doctorate in education.
What does it mean to say that the Board has extended a “call”? The language reflects that we believe that the Lord is involved in this process. Ms. Wood currently has a call to serve Lamb of God Lutheran School. We have now issued her a call to serve here at St. John’s. So now it is on her to discern where God wants her to serve. It is customary for someone who has received such a call to prayerfully deliberate for a couple weeks before announcing a decision.
For that reason, we ask for your prayers for Ms. Christy Wood, that the Lord would guide her deliberations and direct her decision.

I’m praying that Ms. Wood will accept our call to serve as Principal here at SJLS. I also pray that we can possibly offer her some financial assistance with home rental costs here in Napa, or nearby.
Lord hear our prayers, Amen.
