Senior Pastor
Pastor Kristin Warthen brings energy and heart to St. Andrews UMC, whether she’s preaching, serving, or dreaming up new ways to connect people with God and each other. Kristin’s call to ministry roots itself in ministries of care, justice, and service—in and with community, so she invites everyone to join!
Pastor Kristin didn’t take a straight path to ministry. Raised outside the church, she discovered God’s love as a teenager, found her home in United Methodism after graduating college, and eventually earned her M.Div. from Brite Divinity School in 2019 and was ordained an elder in the United Methodist Church in 2020. Along the way, Kristin has served everywhere from camp ministries to district offices (where she learned way more polity than she planned) and took a detour through both education and corporate America.
When she’s not spending time with her high school sweetheart and their two daughters, Kristin can be found reading, listening to podcasts, or raving about a great movie! And she’s always up for a good coffee! Feel free to email her to grab a cup together!
