Meet Our Team
Rev. Kim Uchimura
I am so happy to be at LVC and back in my community. There are so many great things going on at Limona Village Chapel and I can’t wait to see you.
I was born in Indiana, PA, lived later in Norman, OK, and attended Northwestern University where I met my husband, Greg. I am a second career pastor as I worked in banking for 17 years prior to becoming a pastor. I attended Asbury Theological Seminary and was commissioned as a pastor in 2005 and ordained in 2008. We have lived in Valrico since 1987 all but 2 years. Greg and I have 3 adult children, 5 grandchildren, and a grandcat! In my free time, I enjoy my family, playing the flute and piano, assembling 1000 piece puzzles, reading, books on tape, and Greg and I love being part of a choir.
I look forward to getting to know you and welcome any questions you may have. Please feel free to contact me at the church, 813-689-8385, or email me at pastorkimuch@gmail.com.
