Meet the EC Staff

• Campus Ministers

I became a campus Minister at the UWGB Ecumenical Center in August 2000.  I currently serve half-time here. In the years I have been in this position, it has been my joy to be available to help, to talk with, and to meet the needs of the students, staff, and faculty on campus. Currently, I lead the Protestant worship service on Sunday evenings, Bible studies, a book discussion group, and other events.

I graduated from UWGB in 1988, before going on to Moravian Theological Seminary. I was ordained as a pastor in the Moravian Church in 1991. Since then I have served congregations in Daggett, Michigan; in Edmonton, Alberta, Canada; and here in Green Bay. I am married to Art Hanson. We have two dogs and several nieces and nephews. You can see photos of them on the door of my office.

Stop in and chat!
