Pastor - The Reverend Raymond Smith

Let me introduce myself to you as the Pastor of the Mission Woods Church. I grew up in Aberdeen, Washington, first making my faith commitment there through the First Presbyterian Church. After graduating from the University of Washington in 1972, I attended Princeton Theological Seminary, getting my Masters of Divinity Degree in 1975. I was then ordained as a Minister of Word and Sacrament. I've served churches in Colorado and Washington, in such communities as Port Townsend, Cashmere, and the Wedgwood area of Seattle, before coming to Mission Woods. I have two grown children and two younger ones, ages 13 and 9. My interests include reading, writing, and hiking.
