Mary Kathryn Kirkpatrick - I Want To Go Wherever You Want Me To Go
Reverend Mary Kathryn Kirkpatrick states:
I was born in Bryan, Texas, during one of my father’s final exam weeks at Texas A&M University. One professor allowed him to miss his exam in order to be at the hospital while my mother delivered me. That professor said, “If the baby is a boy, you’ll get an A. If it’s a girl, I’ll give you a B.” I supposed my father was fortunate to get a B! That’s an example of the world that I was born into.
We moved about seven times before I was two years old. I attended public schools in four states – Texas, Georgia, Tennessee, and Indiana. Moving frequently helped me learn to make new friends easily. I have two younger siblings – a sister and a brother.
I chose to attend Purdue University in West Lafayette, Indiana. My Bachelor of Science degree was in General Management. A sorority sister set me up on a blind date with her brother during my sophomore year. Scott and I were married the summer after our junior year. Forty-one years later, we’re still married!
We were unable to have children. Instead, we have had several dogs. Right now, our “child” is a Standard Poodle named Zephyr. We pretty much dote on him. He’s a great dog!
My career with Merrill Lynch began in 1985 when we moved to Dallas, Texas. I worked for Merrill Lynch for twenty years, serving mostly as an Administrative Manager and a Financial Advisor. In 2005, I changed firms.
In 2004, while attending Triennium at Purdue, I clearly heard God call me. In 2006, I began working in ministry. In 2008, at the age of 50, I began seminary at MTS, graduating in May 2011. I am a project away from the Doctor of Ministry degree! Please pray for me.
My ordination as a Minister of Word and Sacrament was on June 26, 2011. My first call was as Associate Pastor for Cumberland Presbyterian Church of Marshall, Texas. I served there for eight years. I’ve been the solo Pastor at Jefferson Cumberland Presbyterian Church in Jefferson, Texas for a little over a year. The tenth anniversary of my ordination will be this June.
