Pastor Amanda joined Trinity Church in August 2023. After living and serving in Ontario for 15 years, Amanda was delighted to return to lakeshore of West Michigan where she grew up. Her husband, Brian, is also an ordained minister and together they juggle their pastoral calls alongside parenting their two kiddos. Pastor Amanda is always up for a conversation about where God is at work in your life, the quirks of Reformed polity, the oddities of Canadian AND American culture, or just the latest episode of Bluey.
