Almost a decade of that has been teaching, pastoring, and exploring in the mega-cities of China.\u00a0\u00a0While there, I met my wife Katie, and together our family has grown to include Josie, Asher, and Eliza. In the middle of our China journeys, we were also treated to three outstanding years studying at Regent College in Vancouver, BC.\u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0 \u00a0<\/p><p>With the longing to put down roots, to know and be known in a place, our family moved to Jericho, VT in late 2015. I serve here as the Senior Pastor at Jericho Congregational Church. I continue to enjoy many \u201ccross-cultural\u201d moments in New England as I continue to discover the many things to love about this place.<\/p><p>I&#8217;ll take whatever excuse I can to be outdoors to run, cycle, swim, ski, and hike!\u00a0 Indoors, I love sharing a meal, drinking a great cup of coffee, reading, and streaming an eclectic mix of new music on the

Church!\u00a0 It was during those years of Sunday school classes, youth group events and Chicken Pie Suppers that Pete met Jesus and developed a love for His Church and Word. It was also there that Pete met his wife, Cherri.\u00a0 During their early married years on Boston\u2019s North Shore, Pete and Cherri both engaged in ministry positions: Pete as a Bible teacher and chaplain at a Christian school, and Cherri as a resident director at Gordon College, their alma mater.\u00a0 In 2013, after the birth of their daughter, Charis, the Andersons felt free to move back to Vermont, where Pete began work as a landscape installation foreman.\u00a0\u00a0<\/p><p>In March of 2020, Pete accepted the call as the Youth Pastor at JCC. \u00a0 Both Pete and Cherri are humbled and honored that the Lord has opened the door for them to pour into the young people of this place in the same way that they were poured into almost twenty years ago!\u00a0 Pete longs to see a generation of youth that share a commitment to the truth of Scripture, and a love for God and neighbor.<\/p><p>Pete enjoys making old things new again, exploring the outdoors, and spending time with Cherri and their three children, Charis, Henry and Boaz. As for his other interests &#8212; legends abound regarding funk bands, beatboxing and rap music, but no one knows for sure if they\u2019re really
