Congregational Voices
“After spending a month working with Omega as Intern Minister, I was able to depart for a sabbatical, during a pandemic, knowing the congregation was in good hands. And it was! Her steady, warm, pastoral presence was a blessing to the congregation. Without a doubt, she knows what the minister's job is, and how to do it well."
— Rev. Dr. Matthew Johnson, Senior Minister, The Unitarian Universalist Church, Rockford, Illinois
“Omega has been able to craft a total Sunday service and give a meaningful sermon while mastering the computer skills to conduct these on-line during COVID. She shows poise, interest and empathy with people, along with knowledge and respect of how committees and a church work.”
— D.W., Chair of Ministerial Internship Committee, The Unitarian Universalist Church, Rockford, Illinois
