KEYNOTE SPEAKER

Rev. Shelli Latham, President of the Omaha Presbyterian Seminary Foundation

After serving in congregational ministry her entire adult life, Shelli took on a new role, in 2022, as the President of the Omaha Presbyterian Seminary Foundation (OPSF). Shelli has pastored in churches large and small, rural and urban and has an abiding love for churches of all shapes, sizes, and locations. Her heart for the Presbyterian Church (USA), and her appreciation of the joys and challenges of ministry propel her as she leads OPSF to seek, equip, and support leaders in Presbyterian Churches across Mid America. Outside of the office, you are likely to find her kayaking, running slowly, hanging out with foster kids or her menagerie of pets with complicated diets, or honing her remedial gardening skills.
