Lead Pastor
MINISTER AND PASTOR
After saying goodbye to our pastor of six years, Rev. Nathaniel Mahlberg in March of 2022, we are entering into a period of discernment as we search for a new leader for our community. Please stay up to date with our pastoral search team via Facebook and email newsletters!
If you are in need of pastoral care, please feel free to contact our church administrative team to be put in touch with qualified spiritual care professionals from our church community.

Isabella Sherwood
WEBMASTER
I do all things tech for FCC-- mostly working on our web presence these days!
I am currently studying for my Masters in Divinity at the Iliff School of Theology with the eventual goal of becoming an ordained minister myself. I'm passionate about unearthing the historical basis for the Christian tradition-- and envisioning what the future of doing and being church will look like in the twenty-first century.
My partner and I met at FCC in 2019, and where I live with my partner, who I met at FCC in 2019, and now live in Denver, CO, with our dog Adelaide. I like to make time for my hobbies, including baking, sewing, and drinking lots of coffee!

Bailey
BOOKKEEPER AND ACCOUNTANT
Leah Bailey was born in Singapore, raised in Alaska, and lives in Walla Walla. She is a musician and teacher, a little bit nerdy about non-profit business management and accounting, and a sporadic knitter. Leah has three kids, two dogs, a husband, two master’s degrees, a teaching certificate, a monthly column in the Family Forum supplement to the Walla Walla Union-Bulletin, and a transplanted kidney named George. She plays regularly with the Walla Walla Symphony and is the sole proprietor of two small businesses: Bailey's Books and Balances (accounting and bookkeeping) and Bailey Editing (writing and editing). Prior to the pandemic, she could occasionally be found teaching high school English or playing the cello around the Walla Walla Valley..
