Pastor Fuller
Picture Courtesy Nora HowardPastor Fuller is a Connecticut native and grew up in Plainville where he attended local schools. Baptized and confirmed in the Plainville Congregational Church, he was active in the Farmington Valley Association Pilgrim Fellowship and later was in the care of our association as a student for ministry.
Ken received his Bachelor's degree in French from Davidson College in North Carolina, spending his junior year in France. A graduate of the Harvard Divinity School, he was ordained by the Berkshire Association of the Massachusetts Conference where he served as Pastor of the Williamstown Congregational Parish.
Ken has served churches in Massachusetts, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine. A delegate to the UCC General Synod from the New Hampshire and the Central Atlantic Conferences, he has chaired several conference and association committees and boards. For the past fifteen years he has been Pastor and Teacher of the Cleveland Park Congregational United Church of Christ in Washington, DC.
Committed to continuing education, Pastor Fuller is a Fellow of the College of Preachers and on the board of Ring Lake Ranch, an ecumenical center for education and renewal in Dubois, Wyoming. He particularly loves preaching, pastoral calling, confirmation education, and mentoring lay leadership. The traditional calling of an ordained minister to "hatch, match and dispatch" is central to Ken's understanding of the work of a Pastor.
