Rev. Tanya Pile grew up in Washington. She is a PK (Preacher's Kid), which means she has lived in both Western Washington and Eastern Washington. She is a graduate of Vanderbilt Divinity School and has spent time serving churches in Nashville, Tennessee, and Dallas, Texas. She was commissioned and licensed as a Local Pastor at the Pacific Northwest Conference in June of 2018.
Tanya is married with two children and loves to road trip, travel in different countries, and, when she has time, cross-stitch. She is a big fan of SciFi/Fantasy movies and books, and can often be found reading. She loves pastry--especially any pie her Mom makes--and believes deep down that Mexican food is always a wonderful idea. |
Kate Kilroy is a community pastor and seminary student at Claremont. She's the mom of a big family and has worked in family ministries since her teens. She currently serves as a Lay Person Assigned through the Pacific Northwest Conference to the people of Better Together.
Kate is our curator of 10 in 30, a vision for birthing ten new expressions of faith in the next thirty years. Kate's been a foster parent, a Doula, childbirth educator, and nursing assistant. She enjoys a good laugh, any outdoor activity, live theater and a campfire.
