Evaluation Forms / Clergy Evaluation. 

UPDATE FOR 2010: Clergy evaluation forms will not be sent out in the fall of 2010 as has been done in previous years. Instead, this will wait until until 2011, closer to appointment-making season.

For 2009 the pastoral evaluation forms were due Oct. 9. The forms were mailed Aug. 20 to Staff-Parish (Pastor-Parish) Relations Chairpersons, Senior Pastors, and Associate Pastors.  See below for downloads. (The forms are only available in untypeable pdf.) Mail completed forms to The UMC Pensacola District Office, PO Box 2727, Pensacola, FL 32513-2727.

NOTE: To save paper, file space, and postage, we're printing the evaluation forms double-sided.  To help us differentiate between the different forms, we're printing the Pastor forms on blue paper, PPR Composite on pink paper, and individual PPR members' forms on white. If you can, it would be very helpful if you would do likewise. Thanks.

  • 2009 Evaluation Forms - PPR Chairperson (Print on white paper, one per PPR member.)

Job, retired bishop of The United Methodist Church, uses John Wesley's three general rules to give Christians a blueprint for a faithful life in a new book, Three Simple Rules: A Wesleyan Way of Living, published by the United Methodist Publishing House.... >>>  (This may also be purchased online at tremendous discount at such sites at Amazon.com, etc.)
