MKE Network

For those of you who don't know me, I consider myself an average 20-something in the great city of Milwaukee. I have a Bachelors degree in Psychology from UW-Milwaukee, 3 years experience in Christian ministry, am pursuing a Masters degree through Trinity Evangelical Divinity School, and aspire to be doing pastoral work in the (near) future. I am currently employed with a non-profit organization in Milwaukee that works with "at-risk" boys and families. I also own and run a DJing business (Brew City DJ's) with a friend of mine.

After attending a recent get-together with some friends, and finding myself in conversation with a pastor in the local area, I left the party feeling rather disconnected from my peers in ministry and community leadership. There is a lot to learn from one another, and I want to find a way to bridge our work to be better informed, resourced, and encouraged. I know there are events in the city that already provide networking opportunities, but when thinking about it, I realized I had very little insight on what others are doing to impact those in the pews and the community.

Honestly, I would say that I am in the "dreaming phase" of this, but welcome ideas, information, and resources. Perhaps with a little more cohesion, we could see some incredible things happen in MKE in 2010!
