Rev. Stephen A. Gifford Coordinating Pastor Phone Ext: 100
|
As Coordinating Pastor, I take pleasure in knitting the routine parts of our life with our broader vision for ministry and mission in the broader Stark County area. I lead Bible studies, prayer groups and opportunities for leadership development. There is freshness to life in this congregation that is both challenging and constantly rejuvenating. God has seen us through the tough times, but also led us into the real joys of discovering how vital a relationship with Christ can be. My personal mission is to be a redeeming presence in the lives of those around me, through example and Spirit of Jesus Christ. |

Rev. Lynn Bozich Shetzer Associate Pastor Phone Ext.: 101 |
Rev.Shetzer was ordained in August 1979 after graduating in 1975 from the college of Wooster majoring in Religion and Sociology, she attended the Divinity School at duke University from 1976-1979, graduating with a Masters in Divinity concentrating on biblical Studies. Since that time she has continued her education; worked as Project Coordinator for Habitat for Humanity; served with the Coalition of churches as a Board Member; worked as an Associate Pastor or Interim Pastor - doing anything from leading worship to cleaning the pews and vacuuming; and the traveled abroad to Jerusalem for a two-year assignment working with the Middle East Council of churches. Lynn says she loves being part of the life and work of the church... being a part of worship and study, pastoral care, congregational life, and mission in and beyond the local community. In a world of increasing specialization, she describes herself as a "generalist" in ministry. Her unique experience allows her to offer a particular perspective and skills in ecumenical partnerships, and hospitality allowing for a deeper understanding of the Kingdom of God and commitment to welcoming all God's children into the family of faith.
