Pastor Stefanie has a heart for justice, a calling to preach, and embraces children and youth as vital participants and leaders in worship. She identifies as a creative and a bridge-builder and has passions for creative worship planning and cultivating healthy local church rhythms. She values District and Conference work as well as ecumenical and interfaith partnerships.
While Rev. Stefanie Hayes did grow up in Texas, she is also a proud Nebraskan who enjoys exploring the state, hiking, kayaking, history, music, ballroom dancing, yoga, anything by Brené Brown, and Hispanic food. She feels excited to serve Hanscom Park UMC and looks forward to getting to know the church and the Omaha community.
