On Saturday, January 25, at the Episcopal Cathedral of St. Philip in Atlanta, Valerie Mehlig Curry was in a cohort of 18 commissioned by the Rt. Rev. Robert Wright as lay ministers. An educator by vocation, Valerie’s lay ministry volunteer work is as a pastoral caregiver, Evangelist, Eucharistic minister, and visitor. Beyond her home faith-community of St. Edward’s Episcopal Church and other churches, she carries her ministry into senior living homes, regular homes, funerals, and hospitals. Valerie supports the grieving, sick, and lonely: “all souls who desire a closer walk with God and connection with the divine as children of God through Jesus and the Holy Spirit.” Not raised a Christian, Valerie was introduced to Jesus as an undergraduate via Brown’s chaplaincy activities led by Chaplain Charles Baldwin.
