Hi! I’m Julia!

................

I am an Ordained Protestant Minister in the United Church of christ and I am an Earth Priestess. I stand at the convergence of Sacred Feminine Earth Honoring Spirituality and the Christian tradition. 

I am a lover of the earth and being wild and free, which means I am an experimental gardener, nature wanderer, skinny-dipping swimmer, forager and someone who seeks to listen to the spirits of the earth.

My relationships ground me and I am passionate about nurturing spiritual community. I am a mama to my sweet toddler Reverie, a partner to my beloved spouse Daniel, a daughter to Patty & John, a sister to William, Hannah, Matthew, Ruthie, Johnny, a granddaughter to Mary Helen, Charles and Warren, Hank and Trudy, a niece to many aunts, aunties and uncles, a cousin (here are my loves), and a friend to the most incredible group of chosen family. I identify as Queer, Bisexual, Pansexual. 

I am an ever student, with formal degrees from Villanova University with BA in History, Union Theological Seminary with a Master of Divinity in Worship & The Arts & Bible & a Doctor of Ministry in Visioning and historical Truth & Reconciliation from Hartford International. I am a MAMA GLOW doula, an Appreciative Inquiry Facilitator, and part of the United Church of Christ's Next Generation Leadership Initiative of young clergy.
