The Rev. Tom Hiller
The Rev. Tom Hiller has
been hired as the interim pastor
for Hope and Valby Lutheran and
All Saints Episcopal churches.
He started his new position on
February 1.
Pastor Hiller, 50, is
originally from Colorado, but
lived all over, growing up as a
"preacher's kid." He graduated
from high school in California
and then attended college in
Kansas, Indiana and M issouri,
receiving a bachelor o f arts
degree in classical languages and
then a master o f divinity degree
from Corcordia Seminary in
Exile at St. Louis.
He started his ministry at
Skid Road in Seattle and has
ministered at various churches in
Portland, Colton and Madras,
where he currently lives with his
wife Lisa, who is a legal
secretary.
The Hillers have a son,
Alex, who is a freshm an at
M acalester college at St. Paul,
MN; and a daughter, Victoria,
who is a freshm an at M adras
High School.
The Rev. H iller is in
M orrow County four or five days
a week. "W hat's interesting about
this ministry is not only that it's a
shared m inistry between two
Lutheran churches, but also an
Episcopal church. It is interesting
to see them work together and at
the same time m aintain separate
identities. They’ve been really
welcoming."
The Rev. Hiller said he is
trying to maintain each church's
schedule o f worship and work
with three church councils, in
addition to m aking visitations
and offering counseling He will
rem ain in his current position
until a permanent pastor is found.
