FaithHope&Love

Hi! I'm Paris, I'm 29 years old, an ordained Pastor in the ELCA, trained community organizer and seeker of post-capitalistic ways of living that honor the dignity of ALL life - people and planet. I am a Midwest native currently studying Economic and Ecological Justice at Vanderbilt Divinity in Nashville, where I am a fellow in the Wendland-Cook Program in Religion and Justice. My only children have 4 legs; 5 yr old Chiweenie & 13 yr old Rat-Terrier.

​

I started this blog as part of a seminary class, using it initially for a course I took as a tool to help educate others on what I was learning about BLM and exposing our systems steeped in White Supremacy and racism. Since then I have used this platform to post my weekly sermons and post in general about faith and the human condition -

the highs, lows, passions, heartbreaks and where I see God in the midst of it all. I mainly blog as a form of advocacy and because we are not meant to journey alone.
