Hi, my name is Caitlin Smithers and I am the new Children, Youth and Families Minister at Hope United Church. I have always loved working with children and youth and have been a youth leader virtually since I was a youth myself. I completed two years or 11 credits at AST towards a Master of Divinity. I plan to continue to take a course or two when I can to complete this degree in the next few years as I have a passion for learning and would love to be Ordained one day.
I love the story of Hope United Church as three churches who have come together to amalgamate to make one church family. I have only been a part of this church for a short time but I have fallen in love with the children and youth here, they are so willing to learn and so welcoming to new people that I already feel like I belong in the big blended family here at Hope United Church. I look forward to the fun and exciting times ahead, and most of all, being a part of each and every one of your journeys if you’ll let me.
