Pastor Julie Shubert
I would like to introduce myself. I am originally from Marshalltown, Iowa. I graduated from Marshalltown Community
College in 1979 and then William Penn College in 1981 with a degree in Elementary Education and Psychology. I taught
Junior High Language Arts in Fullerton, Nebraska for 2 years and then returned to Marshalltown to substitute teach. I was
married in 1984 to Kelly Schubert and we raised 2 boys, Benjamin, and Christopher. Ben and his wife Kelsey live in
McGregor, Iowa and are the parents of my 2 grandsons, Casen age 2 and Beckham age 7 months. Christopher lives with
me here in Centerville and works at Hill Phoenix Steel. My husband Kelly passed away unexpectedly in 2011. I am obsessed
with giraffes and have quite a collection. I love music of all kinds. I have been blessed to be a part of several vocal musical
groups throughout my younger years. I have previously pastored at Hazelton Trinity UMC, Osage First UMC and I come to
you from Epworth FUMC. I am so very honored and excited to be here with you. I know God has great things ahead for the
Centerville/ Moulton Parish. I can be reached at the church by calling 641-856-3213 or email jaschubert77@yahoo.com
