If the number on the NWMN Search Team falls below seven members, other Search Team members will be appointed from the Network Presbytery.
The Search Team will respond to every individual nominated to confirm they indeed want to be considered or removed from the list. The Search Team will use questionnaires and interviews as a process for determining who should be presented to the Network Presbytery for further interviews. The Network Presbytery is allowed to consider candidates beyond those presented by the NWMN Search Team.
The Network Presbytery is charged with the duty of presenting to the NWMN in session, “one or more candidates”. The candidate or candidates will appear on the ballot, along with a line for a write in candidate. (Article VI. Section 10, NWMN Bylaws). All materials for each candidate will be presented to the NWMN ten-days prior to balloting.
