Pastor Dana Caldwell grew up in a small rural town in Illinois. She felt her calling to pulpit ministry at the young age of sixteen, however, life happened. She has spent time living in many places including North Carolina, which is where she received her master's in divinity from Hood Seminary. She then went into chaplaincy first at Mary Washington Hospital in Virginia and then served as a hospital chaplain in Fond Du Lac, WI during the Covid-19 Pandemic. After all of this she found her way back to the small town living she enjoys and back to her original calling to the pulpit when she accepted the call to Pastor in October 2022 at Amery Congregational UCC. She loves animals, especially her beagle Bailey, who can be found from time to time in her office. She also enjoys historic sites, antiques, building doll houses, and nature.

Abby was born and raised in Amery. She found Christ at a young age and continues to grow her faith. She graduated Amery High School in 2013 and then went to UW-River Falls where she completed a bachelor's degree in Agricultural Marketing Communications in 2017. During her college years and beyond she connected with the youth at Amery Congregational as a volunteer. When our previous youth director stepped down it seemed a natural fit to step into this role. She enjoys making a positive difference in these students' lives. Abby is married to her high school sweetheart, Alek. She enjoys traveling, photography, spending time with family and friends, and being active with our church mission trip.
