Rev. Heidi A. Hester graduated from Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary in 2003 and has served Shepherd of the Hills for the past five years.  Her previous backgrounds in Youth Ministry, Business Affairs and Public Relations continues to influence the ministry opportunities for the congregation.  As the church enters into it's 50th Anniversary Celebration, Pastor Heidi looks forward to assisting in the discernment of the church's vision for the next fifty years.

John St. Marie has been on our staff for the past 3 years as Director of Music Ministries and thoroughly enjoys sharing the Lord through music.

He has worked as a music therapist serving special needs populations and has also enjoyed a professional career singing opera, classical and popular music throughout the United States and the world.

The music ministry at Shepherd is very exciting and continues to grow in leaps and bounds.  John hopes to inspire everyone to have the courage to lift their voices in jubilation to the Lord.
