The Upper New York Conference is pleased to welcome Jordan Osborne as the new Office Coordinator for Missional Excellence. In her new role, she will support the teams in the Missional Excellence area, the Director of Missional Excellence, the Associate Directors of Missional Excellence, and other staff in the Missional Excellence area.
Jordan brings a dynamic background in college and career administration, communications, and community outreach. She holds a Bachelor of Science in Management and Leadership and an Associate of Science in Business Administration. Over the past years, she has cultivated a career marked by creativity, collaboration, and a sharp attention to detail—qualities that will be a great asset to the Missional Excellence team.
The Rev. Dr. Aaron Bouwens, Director of Missional Excellence shared, “We are excited to have Jordan join the team. Her gifts and abilities will enhance our capacity to resource leaders and congregations of the Conference.”
Prior to joining the UNY staff, Jordan has had a range of experiences including being a collegiate athlete and serving with AmeriCorp VISTA in Niagara Falls working with people experiencing homelessness. Jordan is returning to the Syracuse area and is looking forward to connecting with friends and family.
Jordan’s diverse skill set—spanning college advising, office administration, database management, and problem-solving—will be instrumental in supporting the work of Missional Excellence, helping to coordinate efforts that serve churches and ministries across Upper New York.
“I’m excited to dig into my own passion while being part of a team that genuinely cares. I can sense how driven everyone is by their own sense of purpose, and that really stands out to me. Kindness feels like a missing piece in the world right now, so I love the idea of helping people through this work,” said Jordan.
Please join us in giving Jordan Osborne a warm welcome as she begins this exciting new chapter with the Upper New York Conference!
