St. Michael’s Episcopal Church, 2900 Canal Blvd., has welcomed a new priest, the Rev. Shay Craig, the first time the church has had a full-time pastor in a decade.
Craig, a native of northern California, served at Christ Cathedral in Salina for two years before coming to Hays in July. Prior to that, she was the associate for Resource Development on the bishop’s staff in the Diocese of Chicago. She was ordained a priest there in 2018.
She also serves St. Andrew’s Episcopal Church, 2422 Hyacinth Ave., about 15 miles north of Hays.
She said, “I’m very excited to be joining St. Michael’s and St. Andrew’s, even in these very odd times. This is the first time in many years that these two churches have been served by a full-time clergy who can dedicate herself to dreaming with them and join in listening for the Holy Spirit to tell us how to be. It is a time of great innovation and inspiration. The Spirit is certainly on the move in the Episcopal Church in Hays.” […]

The year 2020 is a big one for women. It marks the 100th anniversary of women’s right to vote in America and Joan of Arc’s canonization, as well as the 50th anniversary of the first women becoming officers in the Army. The year is also big on a local level, as The Sedona Women celebrate two decades strong.
In the spring of 2000, Helen Wolfe organized the first meeting for the all-women group at local Italian restaurant Dahl & DiLuca.
“I knew Sedona could use an organization for women which would create friendships, then together, make a positive difference in the community,” Wolfe, who now lives in Wyoming, said. “It was a winner, from the very first meeting.” […]
