We offer you warmest regards and greetings from all of us at Coon Rapids First United Methodist Church!
Meet The Pastor
Hello beautiful people! If you are looking for a welcoming congregation where all are welcomed and are surrounded by the love of Christ in an extraordinary church, then you have arrived! Coon Rapids First United Methodist Church is a congregation of all ages with activities for everyone throughout different seasons of the calendar year.
Our worship style is a blend of traditional and contemporary with various kinds of music depending on the Sunday. We are an active congregation engaged within our community and are mission minded. Our focus is to recharge within our beautiful church house each Sunday and then go out into the world to be the church sharing the love of Christ each week through all the actions of our lives!
A little about myself, I recently moved back up to Iowa after spending eleven years in Florida to attend seminary as well as spend time with my aging parents. My wife Carla is also a pastor for the United Methodist Church in Audubon, IA. We have four young adult children with our oldest being married with two young children (yes, I’m a proud Papa!).
I have served United Methodist Churches as a pastor in both Iowa and in Florida since 2010. I am a graduate of McKendree University with a Bachelor of Religious Studies. I also have a Masters of Christian Ministries from Asbury Theological Seminary and just completed my Master of Divinity from United Theological Seminary. I am passionate about Jesus Christ and spreading the awesome news of the Gospel!
I look forward to meeting you some Sunday in worship, or you can find me on most Thursdays in town at Jeanna’s for a cup of coffee in the morning. Stop by for conversation and coffee anytime! I am usually there from 9-noon.
Blessings, Pastor K
