Rev. Amanda Kossow

My name is Amanda and I currently serve as pastor at Trinity Lutheran Church in Cass Lake, MN. There is a t-shirt from Grand Island, MI which describes me to a “T.” It states, “Into the woods I go to lose my mind and find my soul.” I am an avid animal and nature lover who hikes, kayaks, and snowshoes as often as possible. Growing up in the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, I feel a strong kinship with creation, particularly trees. During my time in seminary and in both my first and now second calls, I’ve also been gaining a deeper appreciation for and learning from my bond with human neighbors whose culture differs from mine.
