Reverend Andrew Jensen
Reverend Andrew Jensen has been at Knox United Church since August 2004.  In that time, we have come to know him as a caring spiritual guide, an excellent trumpeter, a fine tenor, and a VERY good friend of Kermit the Frog!  He devotes himself to our congregation, Executive Council, Worship Committee and his Presbytery committees (i.e. Executive, Affirming Ministries, and JGER: Justice, Global and Ecumenical Relations) with great enthusiasm.  He has been a strong supporter of the Visioning that has taken place in 2013 and brings a well-rounded perspective to his role as a blogger for Knox Talks.  Andrew will undoubtedly help us to see how our projects can assist us in living our faith and making our goals relevant to the needs of both our congregation and community.  Andrew is a dog lover who enjoys long walks in the country; in fact, his appreciation of God’s world is evident in all that he does.  In this blog, Andrew will initiate discussions inspired by sermons that have been particularly well received by the congregation on Sunday or on topics requested by individuals that may be of interest to others. He is keenly interested in the congregation’s perspective.
