Einar Rom - Lead Pastor
Pastor Einar and Dawn Rom joined us on Jan. 11, 2020, coming to us from the Gardner/Fitchburg, MA churches. They have been happily wedded since 1990 and have a son, Josiah, who graduated from South Lancaster Academy and Walla Walla University and is now working in the Seattle, WA area as a Mechanical Engineer. Pastor Einar believes that healthy churches are growing churches, and that when Christ is lifted up, people will be drawn to Him. His favorite book of the Bible is Romans, his favorite text is John 10:10, and his favorite contemporary author is Philip Yancey. They are excited to be here and look forward to serving in any way they can.
Pro Tip: Pastor Einar's heritage is Norwegian, so his first name is pronounced A-nar (the A is like the a in ate).

"Jesus said, “Don’t let your hearts be troubled. Trust in God, and trust in me. 2 There are many rooms in my Father’s house; I would not tell you this if it were not true. I am going there to prepare a place for you. 3 After I go and prepare a place for you, I will come back and take you to be with me so that you may be where I am." -John 14:1-3, NCVEd Collins - Office Administrator, Webmaster, Co-A/V Leader, Assistant Clerk
Ed Collins has been a member of the College Church since about 1985. He loves summer, acoustic guitar, Boston sports, vegan foods, and spending time at a special little camp (that's a cottage to you non-Mainers!) on Webb Lake in Weld, Maine, where his family has been vacationing since at least the 1930s. He has an Ed.M. in Educational Media and Technology from BU.
"May the God of peace himself sanctify you wholly; and may your spirit and soul and body be kept sound and blameless at the coming of our Lord Jesus Christ. He who calls you is faithful, and he will do it." -1 Thess. 5:23–24More Team Members
