Transitional Lead Pastor

The Transitional Pastor is one who serves a church congregation between regularly called pastors. Though the time frame is shorter, the Transitional Pastor is the Pastor of the church for this period, however brief it may be. The Transitional Pastor is one who, on short notice, can step into a pastor-less church by providing the necessary leadership and assistance enabling the church to maintain its program, act as a buffer between pastors, perform a healing ministry [when necessary], and prepare the way for the coming pastor.
