The search for the next general secretary of American Baptist Churches USA is back on with the first meeting of a search committee Aug. 8 in Chicago.
American Baptists began seeking a successor to Roy Medley, who retired last year after 14 years, in 2014 but put the search on hold in June 2015 due to “breaches of confidentiality” in the process.
Susan Gillies, retired executive minister of the American Baptist Churches of Nebraska, is serving as interim general secretary.
