We are happy to announce that Bishop Sandra Olewine, Bishop of CA-NV Conference, has appointed Reverend Pablo Rovere as our new pastor, effective July 1, 2025.
District Superintendent, Rev. David Niu, shared this message with us regarding Pastor Pablo and what he brings to us ”his wisdom, administrative skills, teaching ability, and a compassionate pastoral heart.”
Pastor Pablo is married to the Rev. Michelle Magee, a clergy member in the Evangelical Lutheran Church and they are blessed with three wonderful children, ages 17 to 10 yrs.
Pastor Pablo comes to us from the Central Valley District where he led the congregation of Hanford UMC since July of 2018. Prior to Hanford UMC, Pastor Pablo served in several capacities in the Cal-Pac Conference and in Arizona. Pastor Pablo was born, raised, educated in Argentina, completing theological classes here, and is a life-long Methodist.
We are anxious for you to greet/welcome Pastor Pablo and family into our WCUMC family of believers. We will have many blessings to celebration in this coming year and the arrival of Pastor Pablo is one of those blessings.
