Our staff

Pastor:

Our pastor of 10 years retired in July 2023. We are thrilled that the Rev. Haley Ballast has joined us as our transitional pastor. She will lead us through most of 2024, as the the Pastor Nominating Committee searches for our next installed pastor. Here’s a little bit about Pastor Haley:

Haley graduated with her Masters in Divinity from the Seattle University School of Theology and Ministry in 2021. She has been involved in several ministries since then, including as a Pastor Associate role at Newport Pres, a Chaplain Intern at St. Joe's in Tacoma, and a Bridge Pastor for Hagar's Community Church at the Washington Correctional Center for Women in Gig Harbor. She and her family have attended John Knox Presbyterian Church in Normandy Park for many years, not far from where she grew up. Haley has a commitment to racial and social justice, and a heart for building community.
