Parish of the Hills welcomes Pastor Lorri McGranahan
My Name is Lorri, and I look forward to serving Bethel, First, and Linden in addition to Dodgeville and Ridgeway as your pastor. I am excited to meet and get to know all of you! Just a bit of background about myself. I am married to my wonderful husband, David. We have 4 adult children, a daughter in law and 2 grandchildren. Three of our four children currently serve in the Army National Guard. We have 2 dogs, Rambo, and Thor.
I have a passion for helping people and bringing people into a relationship with God. Having seen the positive impact firsthand that a relationship with Jesus Christ can have on your life, it is an honor that God would give me the opportunity to share that with others. When we walk by faith, resting in the living word of Christ, it can bring us a peace, love, hope, and joy that surpasses all understanding.
In my free time, I enjoy all things outdoors. For me, there is no place to feel closer to God than in His own creation. I enjoy walking, hiking, camping, gardening, swimming, plants, and flowers. I also enjoy cooking, and whenever possible, I treasure spending time with my family!
I am excited to get started on this journey with all of you! I look forward to the opportunity to work alongside and get to know the people of our congregations and connecting with the people of our communities.
