A note from Ben:

My name is Ben Adams and I am pastor of All.together Campus Ministry in Dearborn and Detroit. We are a Lutheran/Episcopal campus ministry serving the campuses of Wayne State University, Henry Ford College, and the University of Michigan-Dearborn. I am originally from Southeast Michigan where I grew up in Livonia, and I love being back home after I attended seminary at the Lutheran School of Theology at Chicago and then served in both a parish and campus ministry in Chicago's South Loop. I really am a Michigander through and through. My wife, Tara, and I have two children, a three year old son named Arto, and a one year old daughter named Saana. We also have an old hound dog named Gracie. As a family we love spending time outdoors on our bikes, or on the boat at my parent's lake home in Hell, MI of all places!
