Music Staff Each week Covenant is blessed with the dedication of many who provide musical support for the choir and congregational hymns by playing the organ and piano. Many thanks to Stephanie Croom, Marge Ernest, Andrew Johnston, and Ted Lassagne.
Assistant in Ministry Aimee Moiso grew up in Portland, Oregon, the eldest daughter of a Presbyterian pastor. She attended Whitworth College in Spokane, Washington, with every intention of avoiding her father's career, and graduated in 1997 with a degree in communication studies. After a year of travel and mission work, Aimee moved to Washington, DC, to take a job in the communications department at Bread for the World, a Christian anti-hunger advocacy organization, where she worked for four years. A quadrennium of East Coast life was quite enough, so she returned to the West to begin M.Div. studies at San Francisco Theological Seminary in the fall of 2002, the two-time alma mater of her father. And though she never anticipated following her father to seminary, let alone ministry, she is working toward being ordained in the Presbyterian Church (USA) after graduation.
