Rev. Sue Trigger, Pastor. Rev. Sue is dedicated to serving God by creating space for everyone to encounter God's unconditional love in contemporary and traditional ways. You won't experience services like Bright Sunday and Pentecost exactly like other churches. Rev. Sue received her BA in English and Speech/Drama and Secondary Education from Buena Vista College, Storm Lake, IA; her MDiv from Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary and has completed certifications and advanced education in faith formation, evangelism, and conflict management. She serves the PC(USA) on the Advisory Committee on Social Witness Policy. One of Sue's passions is sewing liturgical vestments for pastors and congregations who love liturgical art but can't purchase from expensive vendors. Sue is a classically trained vocalist and loves singing with the choir. She loves to knit, crochet, and read historical fiction. She especially loves spending time with her grandson, Deen, her children Kate and Charlie, and her husband and colleague in ministry, Rev. Mitch. Rev. Sue is excited to be part of the Mt. Tabor family as we serve God and others together.
