Please join us in Hoversten Chapel at 11:30 for our next Uncovering Vocation chapel. Ellen Weber, Operations Program Associate for the Christensen Center for Vocation, will tell her story. Ellen joined the Christensen Center for Vocation team at the beginning of March 2022 and supports CCV by helping communicate the stories of their work. Additionally, she developed and implemented a new online collaborative learning community project.
Prior to working at Augsburg, she worked in a variety of settings from youth and young adult ministry, CADI waiver case management, speech coaching, working in higher ed, and working as a parent educator. Ellen was a member of the Riverside Innovation Hub’s first congregational partners working with young adults in a South Minneapolis congregation where she traveled with a group to Guatemala. They brought back their learnings that bloomed into a community space with fruit trees, a community garden and honey from the bees on top of the church. She serves on the board of Mental Health Connect, a collaborative that supports congregations with mental health resources, and is a member of the New Brighton Equity Commission.
