WESTHAMPTON CONGREGATIONAL UNITED CHURCH OF CHRIST

Pastor Greg has been our Interim Minister since October of 2022. He comes to us via Vermont, and is originally from Michigan. He has been a UCC minister for 12 years and a trained intentional interim minister for 7 years. He has also run a UCC camp and retreat center and worked as Facilities Director for his alma mater, Chicago Theological Seminary.

His ministry also includes disaster response ministries. He is both the conference disaster coordinator for the Vermont conference, and is a part of the UCC Emotional and Spiritual Care in Times of Disaster team. He merges his interests in pastoral emergency and disaster response by training Christian Upstanders – people that want to be more than just bystannders.

He lives in Florence with his dog Jackson, and is enjoying exploring the area one walk at a time. He likes to craft with upcycled and rescued materials and he is a self-defined science fiction and gaming nerd. His passion is for social justice, especially water justice.
