The Rev. Mary Beene, Pastor
Windsor Presbyterian Church welcomed our pastor, The Reverend Mary Beene, on Sunday, Feb. 2, 2020.
Pastor Mary and her family relocated from Georgia, where Mary served a small church outside of Savannah and started a spiritual direction practice, Openings: Let the Spirit In, in 2015. Her husband, Eric, also a pastor, now serves as General Presbyter with the Presbytery of the Redwoods. Her son, Isaac, is in the arts program at Windsor High School, with a special love for theater and west coast swing.
Mary grew up near Detroit, attended college in Pennsylvania, majored in environmental science and German at Allegheny College, served in the Peace Corps in Hungary, earned a Masters in Public Administration at American University in Washington DC and worked for over 12 years for environmental non-profits in DC and Boston with an emphasis on board training and fundraising. She attended seminary at Boston University, where Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr earned his doctorate.

Janette Gilbertson has been bringing beautiful music to our worship since October 2025. An accomplished pianist and singer, Janette has played in churches with a variety of musical styles.
