Beth Chronister, MDiv '14, stands with her feet firmly planted on the beach by the Pacific Ocean, close to her new home. She has been called away from her position as the Assistant Minister at First Unitarian Society of Denver and Consulting Minister at the High Country Unitarian Universalist ("UU") Fellowship in Summit County. In the fall, she will be the Assistant Minister at University Unitarian Church in Seattle, Washington. Her role at the new church will include supporting the social justice programming, providing pastoral care to the congregation, and leading in worship.

When Beth made the announcement about her new placement, she said, "I didn't even know such a position was possible!" For those of us familiar with Beth's path to, challenges with and successes in ministry, we know this position was made for her. She has already faithfully labored in the social justice field, in part, through her work as Co-Chair on the Board of the Interfaith Alliance of Colorado. Beth's additional degree in social work also makes her a seasoned professional in providing pastoral care. I've heard rumors that she is also a formidable preacher.
