From Iowa-
The Rev. Kim Turner Baker, the new pastor at St. John’s by the Campus
Episcopal Church, was born in Des Moines and lived there for the first
eight years of her life. But her ties to central Iowa go much further
back to the early 1900s when her great uncle and grandfather were among
the first blacks to graduate from Iowa State University.
So when she visited St. John’s earlier this year, Turner Baker said she felt as if it’s where she belonged.
Turner
Baker, 62, began her work leading the congregation of about 320
parishioners in August, and was installed as its pastor during a
ceremony last month.
To learn how more about how Turner Baker got here you have to look back.
