She has spoken at many youth and quilting retreats, spent 17 years as a youth pastor, and 4 years serving as pastor for a two-point charge, and continues to offer pulpit supply while serving primarily as a ministry coach and consultant.

In 2019, she developed a workshop for the Rural Ministry Now Conference entitled “Student Ministries Without Paid Staff”. And in 2020, she provided an online workshop entitled, “Unloading the Silo and Growing the Kingdom: Rural Ministry in 2021 and Beyond”. In 2022, the Power in Me Conference hosted Rev. Meghan for a parents workshop on “The Talk: The Conversation has Changed, but God’s Design Hasn’t.” She has also developed a number of youth and family retreat curricula. These workshops and retreats can be brought to you or Rev. Meghan can develop one specific to your context and purposes.

Consulting: Individual churches seeking guidance around visioning, goals, and next steps toward a more faithful practice of making new generations of disciples, may benefit from Rev. Meghan’s experience and gifts of discernment. This may involve pre-visit conversations with the pastor and key leaders and participants, a visit to your church and tour of your community, followed by a workshop held at your church or ministry site.

*Coaching: This is generally an ongoing relationship with the pastor or ministry leader(s) through monthly 30-60 minute conversations either in person, over the phone, or via video calling (ie: Google Meet, or WhatsApp). In the course of these conversations, Rev. Meghan will ask focused questions and offer support that will help you grow your leadership and rural ministry.
