Raully Donahue, pastor Email Pastor Raully
Hi! I’m Raully Donahue, the new pastor at Ferry. I moved here just this past summer and I’m still looking for the best beach spots and hikes around White Lake. I care deeply about the exploration of the Scriptures and discussion about how God moves through the churches. At a cultural moment when our world is becoming more hostile and more divided, I appreciate people and churches that are taking the time to prioritize their own spiritual growth and to listen to the Spirit. Before I came to ministry, I earned a Ph.D. in religious history and I still love exploring the diversity of churches and religious traditions of the world even while being rooted in the Reformed branches of the universal Church.
I’m a proud graduate of both The Ohio State University and Notre Dame, which means that football season can be tough for me around here. Because I grew up in the rain-starved Rocky Mountains, I will never get enough of the endless beauty of Lake Michigan. I love playing board games with friends and trying new recipes out on my family. One of my favorite ways to pass an afternoon is to have a deep conversation with someone over a cup of coffee or a pint, so if you’re interested in learning more about me or about Ferry Church, please get in touch: pastor@ferrychurch.org.
