​Pastor Jen has been serving as a pastor in the ELCA and UCC for over 24 years.

She feels deeply called to the ministry of inclusion, focusing her work and preaching on communicating that every person is God’s beloved, and is welcome to be a full, equal participant in God’s family.

​

She graduated from Trinity Lutheran Seminary in Columbus OH.

Her first several years of ministry, as a youth leader and later as an ordained pastor, took place in the Appalachian Mountain region of southeastern Ohio.

She eventually moved back to Wisconsin, her home state, where she has served multiple calls in Shawano and Winnebago counties.

  

She has called Oshkosh her home for the past 12 years, where she lives with her husband, Tim, teenage son, Jonathan, and 2 dogs. She also has 4 adult step-children and 3 grandkids. She spends her free time training and riding her 2 horses, camping with Jonathan, and enjoying her grand-babies.
