The
Rev’d Sandra Michels
joined the staff and moved into Wainwright house in the fall
of 2009.
She
was born and raised in Texas, interestingly enough, in the
same parish in which Gordon King (our director of music) worked
and Father Prator (our rector) worshipped back in the 1960s.
She was a nun in the community of the Holy Spirit here in
Manhattan for seven years, and after her ordination to the
priesthood, she served parishes in New Mexico, Missouri, Texas,
and Indiana. Most recently she retired from St. Francis’
Church in Zionsville, Indiana.
Currently
Mother Michels is studying at the General Theological Seminary.
She is an expert in needlecraft and is presently working on
a tapestry of Noah’s arc. She is also famous for her
delicious trail mix!
