My work at First Presbyterian is primarily based in the Caregiving component of the church, currently made up of at least ten distinct ministries, including the Board of Deacons. I helped energize, reorganize, establish communication between, and improve efficiency between these groups and the congregation. At the same time I provided pastoral care for individuals in times of difficulty and celebration. I preached and taught about transitions as the congregation adjusted to a new Head of Staff. I served the congregation with the Christian Education Committee, the Youth committee, and the Service & Outreach Committees of session.I preached (approximately monthly, to a congregation averaging 300 people per service), taught (in 4-6 week stretches), and provided opportunities for community building (such as Lenten prayer groups).
