OUR TRANSITIONAL PASTOR: Pastor Caroline Wilson
Pastor Caroline Wilson has served as a Presbyterian Church USA teaching elder for 30 years in a wide array of churches in Pennsylvania, Ohio, Florida, and Maryland. She has served in churches large and small, consisting of multi-ethnic and homogenous communities. The diversity of congregations has included those that were predominantly retirees, and others that routinely had youth mission trips for 50+ kids.
As Transitional Pastor, Pastor Caroline seeks to assist all UPB members and visitors respond to God’s call, and transfer that understanding to share the love of Jesus Christ both today and in the future. She believes the transition time is an opportunity to reflect and evaluate who we are as individuals and collectively. As a lover of wit and humor, she wants UPB to experience fun and meaningful times as we walk together in our faith journey.
Pastor Caroline and her husband are both PCUSA teaching elders. He retired in September 2022 and will serve as the Leesburg Presbyterian Church in May 2023. The Wilsons live near Burtonsville, MD along with two growing puppies and several cats. Additionally, their daughter and her wife live in Deland, FL.
Pastor Caroline’s hobbies include vegetable and flower gardening, along with working in her ceramic studio.
