Meet our Pastor and Staff
|
Pastor - Autumn Krueger
I was born and raised in southeastern South Dakota, attended college at Dakota Wesleyan University (DWU) in Mitchell, SD graduating with a BA in religion and philosophy and minor in mathematics. I attended graduate school at Candler School of Theology, graduating in 2017 with a Master of Divinity. I was commissioned as a provisional member of the Dakota’s Annual Conference in 2017 and promptly moved to Alaska. I am an only child and grew up on an acreage just outside of town. In my free time, I simply enjoy being outside, I have preferences to more remote areas such as a large body of water in a kayak or on a quiet trail, potentially lounging in my hammock. In October 2017, I added a pup to my family who has certainly brought forth endless stories and boundless energy (on her part). pastorautumn17@gmail.com |
