Exploring membership or new to St. Bart's? Lynn's the one to see.
The Rev. Lynn C. Sanders joined St. Bart’s in 1988 when she moved to New York as a business and management consultant. After 14 years as an active lay member of this parish, Lynn’s life took an unexpected turn to seminary in California, then ordination as a priest in the Diocese of New York in 2004.
Another unexpected turn took her to a large parish in Austin, Texas, where she discovered how much she loves the holy, multi-faceted and challenging work of pastoring a congregation.
Yet another unexpected turn brought her back to St. Bartholomew’s in 2008, where she now heads our Welcome and Membership ministries, manages the liturgies for all our services, and shares in the sacramental, preaching, teaching and pastoral work that nourish this parish. Lynn finds special joy in getting to know newcomers and longer-timers alike, and in working with both staff and parishioner teams to extend God’s radical welcome to all who enter here.
