Our Chaplains

  • Rev. Sarah Strosahl-Kagi currently serves as the pastor at Royersford Baptist Church in Royersford, Pennsylvania. Prior to her time with RBC, Sarah worked at American Baptist Home Mission Societies and International Ministries and received her call to ministry at the US-Mexico border. Since then, her ministry often brings her to thresholds both material and immaterial. She enjoys playing the marimba, eating tacos, watching the Red Sox, and spending time with her family- husband, Josh; kids, Asher and Ellie; and rescued pets Stout (dog), Peaches and Thor (guinea pigs), and Janet (cat).

  • Rev. Breanna Illéné (she/her) is the Director of Ecumenical Innovation and Justice Initiatives at the Wisconsin Council of Churches.  She has an MA in Social Justice (Loyola University-Chicago), an MA in Christian Education (Garrett-Evangelical Theological Seminary) and an MDiv (Iliff School of Theology) and is an ordained elder in the United Methodist Church. She lives in Madison, Wisconsin with her spouse Andrew and two kids, Ngnédji and Adégnika and loves camping, cooking and eating good food, community building, and reading books.
