Joanne Slawter

Student Chaplain


How long have you been at Palmer and what program are you in? 

  • I began in the fall of 2019. My program is MDiv Pastoral Track.

What is something God is teaching you? 

  • How to live in the peace and love of Jesus Christ. I often allow the noise of the world to penetrate my life and find that I am not living the peace that I want to extend to others. Our families, communities, and the world around us need to know the peace and the love of Jesus Chris and it starts with me.

What are you most looking forward to this year? 

  • Being back on campus and around my fellow students and professors! I was mostly off campus last year with CPE and TFE so I miss the interaction of in-person life!!
