Since the Fall of 2019, my time at Palmer Theological Seminary has been an enriching and transformative experience. I initially started in the MTS program but later discerned a calling to transition to the MDiv program. Beyond academics, Palmer has become a place of profound community, fostering meaningful connections with others. Throughout this journey, I have been learning the importance of process and how the most significant transformations come from embracing the stretching and development that occur along the way. As I eagerly look forward to this year, I am excited for continued growth and the nurturing environment of community that Palmer offers.
