The Reverend Harry Disher

I am excited about engaging in Intentional Interim Ministry with First United, Waterloo.  I am a cis-gendered, white, privileged male, and I recognize there is a lot of fragility with that.  My pronouns are the usual “he”, “him”, and “his”; but my Greek mother-in-law just calls me “Hey, you!”  I have served five United church pastoral charges beginning with one four-point one in Nova Scotia and then four others in Ontario.  I have, since then, trained for Intentional Interim Ministry and as a Spiritual Director.  I have served in an Interim role with four congregations since 2013.  I value the sense of focus and purpose that Interim Ministry affords and bring my creativity, energy, and dedication to congregational community life to that role and calling.
