Organization and Staff
Rev. Linda Wisser
Pastor
Pastor Linda is native to the Lehigh Valley where her ministry and her family roots run deep and wide. Prior to accepting the call to serve at East Hills Moravian Church, Linda served on staff with a Moravian congregation in Emmaus, PA. There she directed a ministry of growth and development with the goal of helping people to grow in their discipleship and helping the congregation to grow in their mission and service in the community. Linda also served as Interim Pastor for a U.C.C. congregation in Bethlehem, PA where she helped that congregation to know and serve their neighbors. Linda wholeheartedly believes that our lives of faith are to be living and growing, evidenced by a life of loving others in word and action. Congregational life should reflect that growing faith in the lives of her members.

Linda is a graduate of Moravian Theological Seminary in Bethlehem, PA (MDiv, 2020; Crossroads Certification, 2015). Her clinical pastoral education was with Penn Foundation in Sellersville, PA where she served as chaplain in an inpatient setting for people struggling with mental health diagnosis and addictions.
