Who: Kevin Lind
Occupation: Pastor, Coulee Dam Community Church, Presbyterian (USA)
Years in Community: 6 months
Education: Prairie High School, Vancouver, WA 1999; Whitworth College, 2003
Favorite community memory:
I don't have to remember back too far, as a newcomer to the community, but I very much enjoyed the Native American Day celebration the schools held at the middle school fields. It was a great community event celebrating the heritage of many in our community, yet enjoyed by all, students and adults as well. I am grateful for the way the schools bring many different people in our community together on a regular basis.
Hopes for community: I hope that we can have a community that everyone feels like they can belong to instead of many separate communities within our area. I hope that everyone can be proud to be a part of that community and can play a role in its unique character as we form it together.
Why I am part of the project: To work together with others to begin forming this united community, celebrating all the positive gifts this community has to offer and building on those gifts to see our community thrive.
