Susan Lindberg Haley, diaconal minister
Diaconal Ministers are rostered lay leaders within the ELCA who encourage and equip the baptized to live out the Gospel by serving the needs of the world. Susan’s area of specialization, acquired both through education and work experiences, is supporting people who have developmental disabilities to live as independently as possible. She uses her experience to develop ministries that will encourage people with disabilities to become full and active members of their faith communities. Susan received her M.A. in Ministerial Studies from the Lutheran Theological Seminary at Gettysburg.
