Pastor Cindy Roberts
Hello and Welcome to Lynden United Methodist Church!
I am an Ordained Elder in the Pacific Northwest Conference of the United Methodist Church. In the 18 years I have served the United Methodist Church, I have been appointed to nine difference church communities, with Lynden UMC being my sixth appointment. I have served at Lynden UMC since July 2023.
My spiritual formation began in Michigan, where I was born and baptized. My early
relationship with the mysteries of God have led me all over the world and now to Lynden.
Reason, Experience, Scripture, and Tradition are Wesleyan tenets that guide me through the church life principles, and discipleship for the masses. Scripture and its interpretation
for the daily lives of people is always in the forefront for me in mission and ministry of a church. Journeying with people is the best way to know how scripture is enlivened, applied and lived out in the ordinary lives of people and their attempts to be disciples of Jesus Christ. I continue to be formed by the Holy Scriptures, and walk with the Holy Spirit now and forever. Amen.
Before becoming a member of the clergy, I was a teacher and also served in the United States Marine Corps. I have two (mostly) grown sons and two grandsons, as well as a dog named Bella and a cat named Ditto.
