Pamela Barz began her ministry serving the UU Church of Saco-Biddeford and now has returned to Maine where she offers coaching to help clergy and others get “unstuck” and live from deep gladness. In between, she served churches in Massachusetts – most recently as the minister of the First Parish in Scituate. She has also served as the UU Chaplain at Wellesley College from which she was graduated with a degree in Mathematics. She and her husband live in Bath and are the parents of twin sons, one a sophomore at UMaine Orono, the other a Lance Corporal in the US Marines.
