Julia Fisher, Pastor of Pastoral Care
jfisher@landisvillemennonite.org
Julia brings to her ministry, at Landisville Mennonite Church, a variety of life and educational experiences. She worked as a nurse before entering chaplaincy training and later receiving her degree from Eastern Mennonite Seminary. While raised in the Episcopal Church, her introduction and appreciation for the Mennonite Church came through her 20 year marriage to Ken. Her husband died three years ago, and while widowhood is not a path she would have chosen, it has deepened her relationship with God and her connection with people who are experiencing pain.
Her interests include raising her dog and cats, artwork and architecture

Randall began at Landisville Mennonite Church in 2007, following ministry positions at Mount Joy Mennonite Church in Pennsylvania and Zion Mennonite Church in Broadway, VA. Having come to faith in a Methodist Church in Virginia, it was his experience at Eastern Mennonite University that introduced him to Anabaptist theology. This interest led him to Eastern Mennonite Seminary where he graduated in 2000. He and his wife Kris have three children, Tyler, Logan, and Annika, and a yellow lab, Marlee. Randall enjoys coaching his children’s sports teams, cheering on the Pittsburgh Steelers, reading a good book, gardening and landscape projects.
