Elder Kelly Kotch, Pastor
It is hard to put into words how grateful I am to have joined the United Reformed Church family as your pastor. From my very first days here, I have been touched by the warmth, kindness, and generosity with which you have welcomed me. Thank you for making me feel at home and for the many ways you have already shared your lives, your stories, and your love for this church with me.
As I spend these first months learning more about URC and getting to know our neighbors and the wider Somerville community, one of the things I am most looking forward to is getting to know each and every one of you.
Church is about so much more than seeing one another on Sunday mornings. We are a community, and relationships take time. I want to hear your stories—how you came to URC, what you love about this congregation, what you hope for its future, and simply what is happening in your life.
So, consider this an open invitation! I would love to spend some time with you. We can chat in my office, visit in your home, or meet somewhere for a cup of coffee or tea. There does not need to be a particular reason or a pastoral concern. Sometimes it is simply good to sit together, talk, laugh, and get to know one another a little better.
Please reach out and let me know when you might be available. I am excited about what God is doing in this place, grateful to be walking alongside you, and looking forward to all that we will discover together in the months and years ahead.
In Christ’s Love and Service,
Pastor Kelly
