Katie Sauter
-Administrative Project Coordinator-
Katie has followed a winding road of faith and church - starting with Catholic School, diverting from anything religious, and slowly settling back toward the Lutheran Church (while still taking bits and pieces from various world religions).
With a background in marketing and customer service, and a passion for lists and organizing, the role as administrator/project coordinator at Church Anew combines her skills and provides the flexibility that she desires in life. While most of her prior work is in healthcare, she feels that making the jump to church work is easy - it’s all about caring for people.
Outside of work, good luck finding Katie! She keeps busy, traveling as much as possible (30 countries and counting!), loves live music, and has recently taken up pickleball and is working on her drop shot.

Instead of asking us to descend into the caverns of our innermost selves and excavate our authentic identities, [Ecclesiates] offers alternative questions that point us back to the perceptible world: “What is my responsibility to the world around me?” “What does my hand find to do?”
