Meet our Pastor
Rev. Heather Riggs grew up here in Oregon's beautiful Willamette Valley. She holds
a Masters of Divinity from Claremont School of Theology, and is an ordained Elder in
the Oregon-Idaho Conference of the United Methodist Church. She was appointed to
Oak Grove in 2016, and is deeply involved in our community through our local
Mainstreet Association, County advisory teams, volunteering in our local school, and
community organizing around housing issues. Pastor Heather is married to Tom and
they have two young adult children, Aelric and Gwen.
Pastor Heather embraces a generous orthodoxy, finds her theological home in
Liberation Theology, and will happily officiate your Gay wedding. She enjoys
science fiction, green beans and hiking the beautiful Pacific Northwest.
