A Message from Pastor Andrea Chaumont

March 12, 2026

Dear MBPPC,

This week we will have the opportunity to hear from Rev. Kim Crispeno. Kim has an MACP from The Seattle School of Theology and Psychology with a Concentration in Trauma and Abuse and an MDiv from Princeton Theological Seminary. She is the Co-Founder of The Aftermath Agency, a holistic practice that brings various practitioners in different fields together to assist in multiple aspects of what is necessary for health. She lives in Edmonds, WA with her partner and has three adult children. For fun, Kim loves to write, make art, garden, cook, read, take long walks, rearrange her house, rummage through thrift or antique stores, try new things, and spend time in the outdoors and with people she enjoys. Kim grew up on the shores of the beautiful Flathead Lake in Montana and she is most at home near water, mountains, and trees.

Pastor Andrea is at the Academy of Spiritual Direction this week with Soul Formation https://soulformation.org/ and will be back in worship this Sunday to assist Rev. Crispeno in worship.

Here are some upcoming dates to be aware of:

- Rev. Kim Crispeno will preach at MBPPC on Sunday, March 15th and Pastor Andrea will lead communion and liturgy. You can learn more about Kim here: https://www.kimberlycrispeno.com/ and about her work here: https://www.theaftermathagency.com/our-team
