Advent Greetings!
I am delighted to introduce myself to St. Margaret's Episcopal Church. There have been some wonderful loops on my path to ordination. One loop is circling me back around to learn from your gracious Rector, the Very Rev. Tommy Dillon II. We met at St. Luke's Episcopal Church, where I have been the religion teacher at the Day School for almost 25 years. My relationship with the families of St. Luke's School inspired and nurtured my desire to serve God as a priest in The Episcopal Church.
My husband, Michael, and I are Baton Rouge natives and 1989 graduates of L.S.U. We appreciate and enjoy spending time with our children, Ryan (New Orleans), Rachel and her husband Luke (Baton Rouge), and Raphe (LSU Freshman).
For the past three years, I have attended The A. C. Marble School for Theological Formation in coordination with the Iona Initiative developed by the Seminary of the Southwest in Austin, Texas. Until Covid, our class met in Canton, Mississippi. Since then, we have been meeting online. I was ordained to The Sacred Order of Deacons on December 19, 2020, at St. Paul's Episcopal Church in New Orleans.
I am grateful that God led me to St. Margaret's. I look forward to discovering God's love through the many ways St. Margaret's shares Christ with the world. Thank you for opening your door and your heart to me.
