Rev. Andrew earned his M.Div. from the Colgate Rochester Crozer Divinity School in 2015 and holds an undergraduate degree from Swarthmore.
Rev. Andrew and his wife Becca were married in June. Becca grew up in Pennsburg, PA, attended Boyertown High School, and is a graduate of the Eastman School of Music with an M.Ed. in Music Education.
This summer they both worked at the Lake Delaware Boys Camp in Delhi, NY. Rev. Andrew is served as chaplain to the boys and Becca assisted with the camp music program.
We welcomed Rev. Andrew and Becca with a souped up coffee hour and are excited to have them as wonderful additions to the St. Gabriel’s family.
Below is a picture of both from the first coffee hour.
