"Using Context Staffing was one of the best decisions we could have made in trying to find a new Worship Pastor. Their expert help and ability to narrow our search to a few qualified candidates saved our team an incredible amount of time and frustration. Overall we could not be more excited about the final candidate we ended up hiring. Hopefully it is a long time before we need to look for a staff member for our church, but when we do, I am sure we will be contacting Context again."
