Bridge Pastor - Strother Gross

My name is Pastor Strother Gross. My story began when my parents were called to be missionaries to Africa. I grew up in west and east Africa assisting my father’s dental clinics and learning to share about God with people of diverse backgrounds and languages.

I felt the call of God on my life at a young age, so I obtained an education and became an ordained Presbyterian minister. I met Susan, who has walked the journey of raising four wonderful children together. I have served as a professional chaplain in trauma centers, prisons, police departments, mental health facilities and hospice. I have taught clinical pastoral education to theological students as well.  

Susan and I enjoy live music, preferably jazz, gospel and blues. I love the outdoors, especially hiking and fishing.
