Rev. Rob MacDougall began his call as the Associate Conference Minister in the Northwest Association on September 1, 2015. Rob grew up in Racine, just a few blocks from the city’s best Danish bakeries. (The best kringle comes from Bendtsen’s on Washington Ave.) He attended St. Olaf College, graduating with a BA in Social Work. He worked doing chemical dependency prevention with youth in Milwaukee and Minneapolis before deciding to attend seminary. Rob graduated from Pacific School of Religion with his M.Div. in 1985. He was ordained that same year at his home church, First Congregational UCC of Minneapolis. His first call was to St. Paul’s UCC in St. Paul, Minnesota, where he was the Associate Pastor with the Rev. Ted Trost. After three years at St. Paul’s, Rob received a call to serve First Congregational UCC, Menomonie, where he served for 27 wonderful years.

Rob completed a D.Min. at United Theological Seminary in 2005. His thesis focused on issues around clergy retirement. Rob married Wendy Randall in 1981; they met at St. Olaf.
