Rev. Richard Edens and Rev. Dr. Jill Edens, Interim Senior Co-Ministers

INTERIM SENIOR MINISTERS

The Rev. Dr. Jill Edens and Rev. Richard Edens are serving as co-ministers during our time of transition. They accepted the call and began at TriCon in the last week of January, 2023. The Rev. Robert Brown, who has worked at TriCon for thirteen years, retired from his Senior Minister position in January.

The Edens are experienced leaders and pastors. They served as Co-Senior Pastors for 38 years at the United Church of Chapel Hill, North Carolina, until their retirement in 2017. They relocated to the greater Boston area to be closer to their daughter, the Rev. Ruth Edens, and her family. Since then, they have served at the Wellesley Hills Congregational Church, the First Parish of Westwood, and the Congregational Church of Weston, in Interim capacities.

They are both graduates of the Yale Divinity School, with Jill receiving her Doctorate in Ministry from Lancaster Theological Seminary. Their years of experience in the administration of large, diverse, and growing communities of faith will be a great benefit as we navigate our upcoming transition. With the Interim Co-Ministers in place, we as a congregation look forward to the next steps in the process of identifying and calling a settled Senior Minister.
