INTRODUCING OUR NEW PASTOR

TOM PASMORE

The SPRC is pleased to share the news that Bishop Marcus Matthews has appointed Tom Pasmore to serve as pastor of RPUMC effective July 1, 2008.  The committee had a very positive introductory meeting with Pastor Tom last month.  Tom and his wife, Sarah, along with their three children, Bethany 6, Donald 4, and Samuel 2, will be moving into the parsonage sometime in late June.

Tom currently serves as Pastor of Hope UMC in Dover. Hope was a new church start in 2002 and has continued to grow under Tom's leadership during the last three years. The church places a strong emphasis on outreach.

Born in northern Wisconsin, Tom received a degree in Chemical Engineering from the University of Illinois.  Prior to entering the Pastoral Ministry, Tom was the site technical manager for INVISTA's Seaford Nylon Plant. He experienced his call to the ordained ministry while a very active member of Mariner's Bethel UMC in Ocean View, Delaware. Tom currently is finishing his seminary degree at Drew Theological School and will graduate later in May.

We look forward to welcoming the Pasmores to RPUMC this summer, and we will have more to share in the July Messenger.
