After serving congregations in Illinois and California, Katie is currently between church calls and is relishing the opportunity to live into her newer calling as a mom- physically, mentally, emotionally, and spiritually.

Katie is looking forward to being rejoined with her justice-seeking colleagues in the PC(USA) for the weekend.
