WELCOME

Transition Ministry Conference supports Diocesan Transition Ministers doing the holy work of supporting priests and parishes in transition. Together, we connect clergy seeking new calls and parishes seeking their next priest.

WHO WE ARE

Transition Ministry Conference (TMC) is a consortium of Episcopal dioceses located in Provinces I, II, III, and parts of Provinces IV and V.  We are dedicated to serving the Episcopal Church and supporting parishes and priests in transition.

 

Member dioceses support TMC through both the payment of dues and the participation of their respective diocesan transition ministers who oversee ministry transitions, clergy placement, and more.

 

TMC is a stand-alone 501(c)(3) organized in the Commonwealth of Virginia.

SITE USAGE GUIDE

Episcopal priests and clergy in other denominations who are in full communion with the Episcopal Church (e.g.,  ELCA pastors) who are seeking new calls are invited to submit a profile by clicking here. Your profile will only be available to member Transition Ministers and only for four months. We also invite you to peruse the job board of open positions

Diocesan Transition Ministers may login to access the database of priests seeking new calls and to submit profiles of parishes seeking new clergy.
