Meet the Staff

Naomi Garber, Interim Pastor
All Saints welcomes Naomi Garber as our Interim Pastor to lead us through the call process for finding our new, permanent pastor. Pastor Naomi's first day leading worship at All Saints was July 30th, 2017.

Who am I?
I am very thankful for the gift of serving you as your interim pastor. I am convinced we are called to be together for this season in the life of All Saints and in my story as a pastor. Together we will discover more about our God, our faith, our church, and each other. Some of you know some things about me but I thought as an introduction, I would provide you a few tidbits about me.

I was conceived a Lutheran….I had no choice but be a Lutheran. My father is a Lutheran pastor, continues to be actively serving three rural churches at the age of 81.
I grew up in west-central Minnesota.
I am a recovering church organist (remember, when you are in recovery you are making a commitment to never do it again!).
My husband, Greg, and I have been married for 35 years.
I was ordained in 2000 following a career in strategic planning in healthcare.
I prefer to be called either Pastor Naomi or Naomi.
I have served God’s people in Menomonee Falls, Eastern North Dakota, Janesville, and Richland Center.
We have one daughter who lives in Scotland with our four grandchildren (12, 9, 8, and 6). And yes, Scotland is a beautiful place primarily because of the wee ones who live there!
I love to garden and be outside.
I have a needle in my hands every day---knitting needle, stitching needle, quilting needle.
I love to read and read a wide variety of genres.
I love to cook and bake.
My favorite color is green…followed closely by yellow and coral/orange.
I try my very best to be physically fit. So, I walk most days and have a personal trainer who attempts to keep me on the right path.
LuLu is our beloved Bassett Hound…and yes, she is a character and full of life!
God’s greatest gift to me is the gift of ministry! I cannot imagine doing anything else.

If you have questions about me, ask. If you have suggestions for me, share them. If you would like to have coffee, a Blizzard/Concrete Mixer, lunch, or dinner, call. Let us explore together while we share this time God has given us to be together.
