"My calling is to serve God through pastoral ministry. This means that I am called to proclaim God's word in the forms of preaching and teaching. I am called to administer the sacraments of baptism and holy communion to provide the church and community opportunities to uniquely encounter God's grace. I am called to service in the church and the community. This looks like caring for the sick, visiting those who are limited in their ability to leave their home, participate in missions in both the church and community, standing up for those who are left out or in need, and to lead others in doing this kind of work. Finally, I am called to organize the life of the church through working with our church's wonderful staff, committees, teams, and all who participate in St. Paul UMC."
