Job Search NetworkJob Search Network

With the difficult economic climate here in Michigan and around the country, many Kirk members are unemployed. They may be the person sitting next to you in church, or serving on a committee or board with you. Their unemployment affects not only their welfare and health, but the Kirk's as well. For as one suffers, so does the other - and as one prospers, so does the other.

The Kirk is helping those unemployed with its Job Search Network, but we need your help in identifying jobs in the "hidden job market" and by making contacts. There are positions available, networking is the answer. For more information about the Job Search Network, please contact Joan Hanpeter at
