The Reverend Jack Lohr
Interim Pastor
Since August, 2010, Jack Lohr has been serving as Interim Pastor with the Presbyterian Church of Mount Kisco. He comes from a two-year interim term with the United Presbyterian Church of Middletown, NY, where he helped solidify the merger of two congregations and initiated a "Warming Station" ministry with street homeless persons.
Ordained by the Presbytery of Hudson River, he served churches in Tarrytown and New Rochelle before moving to New Jersey where he served in Hunterdon County and as Head of Staff in Franklin Lakes (Bergen County).
In his statement of faith, Jack says, "From our birth until our death, we are alive with the Breath of God. Spirit gives us wisdom and insight to read Scripture so as to discern the Word of God. From my first religious affiliation as a Quaker, I learned to appreciate this 'Inner Light' in every person. I expect to learn from Holy Wisdom present in every person with whom I share in ministry. I celebrate the humanity that unites all people, of every category that might be used to divide us, and I treasure the privilege of serving others."
Jack holds degrees from Union Theological Seminary, San Francisco Theological Seminary, and Swarthmore College. He has completed Week 1 and Week 2 of Interim Ministry Training, the 2-year Pastoral Studies Program of the Blanton-Peale Graduate Institute, and most recently the Conflict Mediation Training of the Lombard Mennonite Peace Center.
He is married to Janice Lohr, Coordinator of School Nurses for the Ridgewood (NJ) public schools, and they are the parents of four grown children.
