Leadership

St. Benedict’s Vicar – Rev. Heidi Haverkamp

Heidi Haverkamp came to minister alongside the people of The Church of St. Benedict in November 2007. She was drawn to the church’s spiritual gifts of prayer, fellowship, generosity, and discernment. Heidi graduated with her Master of Divinity from the University of Chicago Divinity School in 2006 and got her certificate in Anglican Studies from Seabury Western Theological Seminary in Evanston, Illinois a year later. Her gifts for ministry include teaching, preaching, spiritual guidance and counseling, worship planning, and developing and supporting lay leadership. She also has experience as an organic farmer, mental health worker, cook, and legal secretary, and led a small church in rural New England for a year as a lay interim pastor. Heidi grew up in Hyde Park, on the south side of Chicago, and now enjoys the wide-open spaces of the western suburbs and the constant availability of parking spaces. She likes to garden, cook, and spend time with her husband, Adam Frieberg, an ordained minister in The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ).
