Get to know our new Pastor effective July 1, 2021
Rev. Caleb Williams is excited to be part of the ministry in Milwood. Deacon Caleb was commissioned in 2015 and ordained in 2018 by the Michigan Area of the United Methodist Church. He holds both Master of Divinity and Master of Sacred Music degrees from Boston University. He received his Bachelor of Music in Music Education right here in town from Western Michigan University, where he toured internationally with both the University Chorale and the renowned vocal jazz ensemble Gold Company. It was with a WMU choir that Caleb first walked through the doors of Milwood UMC. This past year, Caleb has served as Minister of Family and Outreach here at Milwood. This has included leading our annual visioning process, organizing our Community Development strategy, creating opportunities for youth involvement, and covering for Pastor Billie when he can't be around. Since his first church job in 2004, he has served at Genesis UMC (Cascade), Portage Chapel Hill UMC, and Royal Oak First UMC, as well as multiple congregations in the United Church of Christ and Episcopal Church while in seminary. Caleb is a lover of camping ministry, too, counseling every summer at Lake Louise United Methodist Camp. Caleb married the love of his life, Dr. Colleen Stano, in 2010. Last year they moved to Kalamazoo and bought their first house. Caleb loves cooking, video games, and working on the house. He continues to work as a vocalist, composer, songwriter, and conductor through Caleb B Williams Worship, LLC (www.CalebBWilliams.com). |
