David Ellingson, M.Div. ‘72

During my 50 years of ordained ministry, creation care has been a consistent theme and emphasis.

I served on campuses, congregations, colleges, and seminaries. In my 3rd Act (retirement) I have become the Paddle Pilgrim via kayak expeditions down the Mississippi River, Erie Canal and Hudson River to the Statue of Liberty, the fjords of Norway, and recently on the Mekong River in SE Asia. Each adventure has been chronicled in a book and a film. I regularly do presentations both here in the Pacific Northwest and around the country. My website has more detailed information. paddle-pilgrim.com I would be happy to be a resource.
