Sherman Church’s New Minister is from New Fairfield
Greg Flower of New Fairfield was called to be the settled pastor at The Sherman Church, 6 Church Road, following a three-year search and a congregational vote Aug. 23, 2026. “It is very clear that the Lord brought me here,” he said as he prepared for his installation Oct. 18.
Pastor Flower spent more than 30 years serving in pastoral ministry, most recently as associate pastor at Ridgefield Baptist Church. He was youth pastor, assistant pastor and director of 56ers for nearly 20 years at Walnut Hill Community Church in Bethel. He served in the military during Operation Desert Storm and is now studying for a Master of Arts in Pastoral Counseling through Liberty University. His wife, Paula, is a sixth-grade special education teacher at Henry H. Wells Middle School in Brewster, NY.
Pastor Greg added that he is excited to be a part of Sherman as well as the church. “Even before the congregational vote, I was saying ‘we,’ the things ‘we’ do at church,” he said. “I was feeling very much a part of this church family really quickly.”
