Rev. Lem Dominguez
Pastor
Rev. Lemuel Dominguez joined us in July of 2024. As a proud homeowner in the Springdale neighborhood adjacent to the church, he is pleased to be serving in the community he lives in after an 11-year career of serving United Methodist congregations in Maryland. "Pastor Lem" earned his undergraduate degree (B.A.) in philosophy from California State University of Long Beach, and his Master of Divinity (M.Div.) degree from Wesley Theological Seminary in Washington, D.C. The pastor moved to the East Coast specifically to train at Wesley Seminary, studying ethics, theology, and public policy through Wesley Seminary's National Capital Semester for Seminarians (NCSS) program. He is a fellow of the Lewis Center for Church Leadership and holds a certificate in Financial Success for Nonprofits from Cornell University.
As a Mexican-American clergy leader, the pastor is sensitive to the struggle immigrants face in America and has cast a vision of increasing Epworth's ministry capacity to Spanish-speakers. He brings a deep passion for pastoral care having served Johns Hopkins Bayview Medical Center as a chaplain. Pastor Lem is also very passionate about making church accessible to all ages and places special emphasis on helping congregations improve their outreach to children. A pastor with a fondness for invoking God's presence through prayer, Pastor Lem's deep spirituality helps inform his efforts to strengthen the faith of others as they navigate an often unforgiving world, reminding people of God's forgiving nature in Christ.
