First United Methodist Church Oneonta

Pastor Casey Bradley has been involved in ministry through the United Methodist Church his whole life. For the last ten years he has served as a pastor in the Upper New York Conference, serving at First UMC of Lake Luzerne and South Corinth UMC for six years, and Church of Christ Uniting in Richfield Springs for four years.

Casey brings to ministry a passion for creative and engaging worship, spiritual development, and creating a space where all people can explore, grow, and share their faith. He seeks to guide and prepare the congregations that he serves so that they can enter the world in mission and ministry.

Casey spends much of his free time hiking, biking, and kayaking. He and his spouse Heather have been married for 11 years.
