Who am I? I have held a lot of titles in my life, but the most important titles are Wife, Mom, Reverand, Pastor and Chaplain. Each of these titles however, while they are ways I live in the world, are spaces and ways for me to live my identity as Lutheran Spiced Christian. My lutheran flavored identity allows me to walk boldly in this world serving others, and sharing the love of God.

My Credentials: My journey to “become” has propelled me through layers of experiences and education opportunities to include coaching and teaching (gymnastics and elementary education). Then my journey walk opened the door to seminary. In 2017, I graduated with a Masters in Divinity, formally trained as a renewal pastor with the Evangelical Lutheran Church of America. This education has gifted me incredible freedom and strength to journey with others. I have served in a varity of capacities from teacher to preacher, and chapalin for a police department. My path partners are both individuals and organizations. I travel with them through the cloud cover of trauma, and then guide them to see the beauty unfolding for them to be revealed as healing. I also am a certified Laughter Yoga instructor and premarital councelor, able to officiate weddings. It is also a very deep honor to serve families officiating funerals: This is very sacred ground.

If you would like to discuss your journey with me, I am ready for the walk. Together we can cover the terrain and push the clouds away. lutheranspice@gmail.com

Sincerly, your sister in Christ,

Lutheran Spice Girl.
