Karen Hagen Recently retired, I am deeply blessed to have served as pastor with the abundantly gracious folk of Tippecanoe Faithing Community (PCUSA) in the Bay View area of Milwaukee. With 20 years of Family Systems study and practice alongside 30 years of professional development in the healing arts…including certifications in spiritual direction, reiki, reflexology, and body/mind/spirit practices, I am humbled to come alongside individuals and groups companioning them on their journeys toward abundant life.
