The Rev. Dr. Jackie Means is celebrating the 47th anniversary of her ordination to the priesthood this year (Jan. 1, 2024). She was the first regularly ordained woman in the Episcopal Church in 1977. Rev’d Dr. Means (“Rev’d Jackie”) is a treasure to this congregation and regularly proclaims the Gospel and preaches throughout the church year. Dr. Means has held numerous official positions in the Episcopal Church of the United States of America, including as director of prison ministries.
