Jenni says: “I know that transitions like bringing a new pastor into the community can be exciting, as well as unsettling. I will do my best to be accessible and sensitive to people’s needs. I also look forward to sharing my love of Scripture through preaching and group gatherings. I will also be working closely with session, and hope to make viable in roads into the Kenilworth neighborhood with your help and support. Your community is important to me, and I am here to serve. I feel privileged to be included in your community! Blessings, Jenni”
