Hello! Allow me to introduce myself. I was ordained in the United Methodist Church as an Elder in 1991 after receiving my B.A. English from Middlebury College and my Master of Divinity degree from Drew Theological School in 1989. I have been serving full-time in Methodist ministry ever since in various churches in the New York Annual Conference of the United Methodist Church. My husband Ron was also raised in the Protestant Christian tradition, and has family who served in United Methodist ministry. He enjoys reading Scripture and singing in the churches we serve. We both enjoy writing, music, folk music festivals, and theology. While Ron is not on staff, he enjoys getting to know the church members. As Pastor, I am available for spiritual counsel, lead Bible studies, administer the sacraments, lead weekly worship, Christmas, Holy Week and Easter services, and officiate weddings and funerals. Reach out if I can be of support to you on your spiritual journey.

Rev. Karen A. Burger, Pastor
