We Have a New Pastor! Welcome, Amy!

As regulars will know, our dear pastor Cindy Weber retired in 2023. She has been our fearless leader for nearly 40 years and has been such an amazing pastor and friend. We look forward to her continued guidance and mentorship in the years to come!

But, with her retirement, we had the very difficult task of finding our next leader/pastor/shepherd. Someone who is nurturing and supportive, someone who is prophetic and a strong justice promoter and a dazzling and inspiring preacher and leader. And we're so elated to announce that we HAVE found that person - Amy Armstrong! The pastor search committee spent months getting to know Amy (and her marvelous family) and the church has had the chance to meet her and get to know her and 100%, we are amazed and certain that she is the right "fit" for this band of rebels and vagabonds.

Amy and her family - wife, Joy and daughter, Alysa - are coming to us from North Carolina and they are all just a tremendous delight! Amy will be starting in June and we can't wait to see where this goes from here. There is electric energy happening at Jeff St, my friends. And in this time of great concern for our nation and our world, this beloved community of God is ready to boldly go forward from here.

I'm sure we and/or Amy will be sharing more when the time is right, but hallelujah, what a great start to our next stage of being the Beloved Community in Louisville. Thanks be to God!

You will love Pastor Amy just as we at her (now) former church love her. Best wishes for a fruitful ministry.
