My name is Jennifer Stamm, and I am excited to be joining the staff at Pendleton Center UMC. I grew up in Amherst, and after graduating from Amherst High School, I attended Buffalo State for Education. I have grown up in the Methodist Church and have been a member of Kenmore UMC for the last 27 years, where I have sung in the choir, taught children’s classes, volunteered for VBS, worked with youth ministry, and cooked for special events.

I look forward to working with you to use our talents and gifts to serve God. I am a certified End of Life Doula helping people and their families through the end period of transitioning in their lives.

I have been active in the church since I was a youth, and it continues to play a huge role in my life. I’m Michael Stamm, and we have 3 children. Thomas, who sings with Amherst Bel Canto and the Amherst Red Blazer Men’s Choir. Mattie, never stops singing and loves to work with children. Eva is our dancer who also loves to sing.

I serve on the Board of Amherst Bel Canto children’s choirs and help at Clara’s Closet at Central Park UMC. I love working with children and youth helping them on their faith walk. I am passionate about missions and love participating in everything from cooking to building houses.
