Congratulations to Rev. Alexis Fuller-Wright, Designated Term Associate Conference Minister at Maine Conference United Church of Christ, for completing the Apprentice Training Program for Spiritual Directors yesterday! Alexis came to the program with excellent skills in pastoral care and found her footing as a spiritual director in a very short time.

And, she did the whole program while taking a new call, moving from New Jersey to Maine and raising two kiddos with her wife Liz, a science writer for Princeton University. So proud of you, Alexis!
