Born in Indiana and from a Lutheran background, Pastor Sarah loves living in the eclectic Audubon Park neighborhood, where she bikes all over and has an edible and pollinator garden covering her entire front yard! Having served God all over the world, Pastor Sarah loves traveling and is a foodie who finds great joy in connecting with people and with their arts and cultures. Prior to joining the Audubon Park Church community, Pastor Sarah was Associate Pastor at the Community Covenant Church in Clear Lake, WA. She graduated from Valparaiso University in 2002 with a Bachelors in Elementary Education, and in 2010, she earned her Masters of Divinity from North Park Seminary.

Ordained in the summer of 2013 in Detroit, MI, Pastor Sarah was officially installed as pastor of Audubon Park Covenant Church December 8, 2013. She is vibrant, energetic, and loves her calling as Pastor of APC and as a community leader. If you see her riding her bike in the neighborhood with her pup, Chica, in the front basket, say "Hello!" She'd love to say "Hello!" to you, too!
