Christine Sima grew up in CT in the Congregational Church, receiving her first Bible at age 8 (which she still has, by the way).

In 2018 she felt God tugging at her heart and followed that call to Seminary. She is a 2023 graduate of Hartford International University for Religion and Peace (formerly Hartford Seminary), earning a Master's in Chaplaincy. A member in discernment, Christine feels called both to the pulpit and to chaplaincy and is currently on the ordination track. She is presently serving as the Christian Education Director at North Guilford Congregational church.
​
She lives in Guilford where in her spare time she likes to take long walks on the beach with her life partner Jeremy and their dog Ming.

David Irvine lives for two things: music and God.  As organist of NGCC, he plays the piano, the midi, the carillon, and of course the pipe organ.  In addition, David sings in a choir, directs musicals, and works with disabled children.  His hobbies include baton twirling and roller derby.
