Installation service of Pastor Mary Herbig. A joyful gathering of friends, members and community clergy to officially welcome Pastor Herbig to FCCW. In her own words, “At its heart, this service is about relationship—our commitment to walk with one another in faith, to listen for God’s spirit together and to join in the ongoing work of love, justice and renewal in our world. We’ll celebrate what has been, bless what is and look with hope toward what’s next.”

Emma is the daughter of Andrew and Valli Stewart and was confirmed at FCCW in 2011. Emma feels very grateful to have had such a strong intergenerational community and support system growing up in the church. Some of her favorite memories include the yearly family retreat in MI (especially hunting for Lion ants with Gretchen A. and singing “Morning Has Broken”) fun at the winter retreat in Lake Geneva and mission trips to Edisto Island, S.C, with the youth group. Weekly kids and youth group meetings were an integral part of her life growing up in Wilmette and Emma remains friends with many of the other youth group members. After graduating New Trier, Emma attended Carleton College in MN. She then moved back to Chicago to attend medical school at Loyola University. Emma is currently a second year pathology resident, training at NYU/Bellevue Hospital in Manhattan. She hopes to pursue a career in gynecologic and breast pathology in the future! In her free time she enjoys cycling, cooking, reading books in the park and cuddling with her cat. Emma and her fiancé Max, whom she met in undergrad, plan to marry in the summer of 2026.
