He is excited to be back in southeast Colorado and looking forward to all the opportunities to share the Grace and Hope of God in Jesus Christ in our corner of the High Plains. In addition to Wiley, Pastor Travis serves the McClave community through the McClave United Methodist Church as their pastor. His wife, Kristina, is also a pastor and serves the Lamar United Methodist Church in Lamar.
Pastor Travis has a Master of Divinity from the Iliff School of Theology in Denver, Colorado, and a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy and Religion from McPherson College in McPherson, Kansas. He was ordained an Elder in the Rocky Mountain Conference of the United Methodist Church in 2015. He is the 2016 Rocky Mountain Conference recipient of the Harry Denman Award for Evangelism for his work in community connection and faith development. Pastor Travis has been a pastor since 2010, serving in Faith United Methodist Church in Cheyenne, Wyoming, the Baca County Cooperative Parish in southeast Colorado, Grace United Methodist Church in Dillon, Montana and the Ruby Valley United Methodist Parish in Twin Bridges and Sheridan, Montana.
While Pastor Travis has spent much of his career serving across Wyoming, Montana, and Colorado, his roots are in Kansas. His passion is for rural ministry and helping both people and congregations find their hope and spiritual center by the grace of God in Jesus Christ. Pastor Travis enjoys experimenting with new ideas for ministry while honoring the traditions of the past. In his free time, he enjoys photography, painting, mountain biking, downhill skiing, hiking, travelling and cooking. He resides in Wiley with Kristina and their cat, Ski.
WHAT WE BELIEVE
As individuals that have different experiences, different backgrounds, and different family dynamics, we do not all have the same beliefs.
But as a church, we share these values:
Love
Truth
Community
Relationships
Learning
Service
Family
We believe in the Triune God: God the Creator, Jesus Christ the Redeemer, and The Holy Spirit the Sustainer.
We believe that God is the God of love. We believe that God extends abundant grace to all of humanity. We believe that God calls us to be in relationship with God and with each other. We believe that God calls us to join in God’s work of establishing justice, peace, and righteousness.
