Kim A. Stover, Interim Pastor

     Kim Alan Stover grew up in a tiny town in rural Nebraska. He and his wife, Sue, graduated from Ravenna High School, Ravenna, NE. He graduated in 1973 from Concordia Teachers' College, Seward, NE with an Education Degree and teaching certificate for Elementary Education.

     He and Sue were married in 1972 and have three adult children: Jeremy and wife Elyse of San Francisco; Joshua and wife Caron of Atlanta; and Andrea and boyfriend Kyle of Atlanta. Grandchildren Ellory (1) lives in San Francisco and Max (3) lives in Atlanta. Kim's and Sue's parents are deceased as well as one of Kim's three brothers.

     Prior to seminary education and training, Kim worked as a lay assistant at Zion Lutheran Church, Stamford, CT; taught first grade as well as remedial reading and math at Ravenna Schools; sold farm shop supplies, photocopiers, and detailed nutritional and pharmaceutical products (Ross-Abbott Labs) to doctors and hospital based nurses in Nebraska.

     In 1990, Sue and Kim moved to Columbus, Ohio for seminary training. Kim was ordained in 1994, accepting a call to Springboro Lutheran Church, Springboro, OH. Sue graduated with a Master of Lay Ministry Degree in 1996.

     In 1998, Kim and Sue served Trinity Lutheran Church, Hildreth, NE, a congregation made up of three merged congregations in Franklin County. In 2006, they accepted calls to Our Savior Lutheran Church, Wayne, NE. In his last year at OSLC, Kim participated in Intentional Interim Training sponsored by the National Association of Lutheran Interim Pastors.

     Kim and Sue still own a home in Wayne, NE and will rent an apartment in Durham for the interim period. Sue will seek work in Durham, and will share some time with family in Atlanta.

     "I look forward to the Interim and that which the Holy Spirit has in mind for you and me as the Body of Christ in Durham."
