Marc Maillefer (pron. MY-fair), new senior pastor at Door Creek Church, sat down for a conversation with MC News Editor Gordon Govier to help introduce him to his new congregation as well as to the Madison community.
Q: How much did you know about Madison before you took this job?
MM: I’ve jokingly said that our knowledge of Madison was always driving by. My wife is from the Twin Cities and we’ve been living in Chicago; well I’ve lived there all my life. So I didn’t know a whole lot about Madison. I remember pulling off I-90 one time and driving down and realizing, "Wow, there’s a lake here. This is really a nice city." So not very much at all.
