About Me, Staci
HI! My name is Staci, and I am the Director of Faith Formation at Richmond Beach Congregational United Church of Christ. I have deep roots in Richmond Beach Congregational. I grew up in Shoreline, WA, and have been part of the RBCC-UCC community since I was a child. After graduating from Shorewood High School, I attended Seattle Pacific University, majoring in Child Psychology with an emphasis in Social Service. I hold a Certificate of Youth and Theology through Princeton Theological Seminary and a Certificate in Spiritual Formation and Dialogue with Children. I am currently completing a graduate certificate in Scripture and Society.
I am passionate about playfully engaging the generations, especially children and youth, in making discoveries about the mystery that is God. I enjoy creating playful and thoughtful opportunities to experience moments of awe and wonder while encouraging everyone to find their place of meaning and belonging in God's infinite story. I enjoy the creative innovation of modern worship, including liturgy writing, multi-sensory worship experiences, curriculum development, and facilitating workshops and retreats. My ministry is lighthearted, playful, and experiential.
I studied Child Psychology at Seattle Pacific University and hold several certificates, including Youth and Theology, Spiritual Formation and Dialogue with Children, and am completing a graduate certificate in Scripture and Society from the Seattle School of Theology and Psychology.
I use my everyday life as a spiritual playground, which creates in me a ministry that is lighthearted, amusing, and experiential. We can all learn and grow together, working from the intersection that is spirituality, justice, service, and community. I love the spirituality of movement, cooking for family and friends as an expression of prayer, and playing with my family. I am thankful to have an amazing network of colleagues, friends and family who I look to for input and support; including my husband Jamie and our adult children Parker and Madison.
