Rev. Lourdes Olson
Congregational Membership: New Song Lutheran Church Henderson, NV
Life Experiences: I am currently serving as New Song's Associate Pastor of Faith Formation, where I preach, teach, and lead people in contemplative prayer. I have been a worship leader for most of my life. I have taught numerous Bible studies as a layperson, an intern, and a pastor, both in person and virtually. Most recently, I have been a cohort leader twice for Thriving Leadership Formation, a program in conjunction with Pacific Lutheran Theological Seminary, intended to foster spiritual and contemplative practices to enrich leaders' lives and help them thrive. I served on the GCS' Mission and Ministry Task Force, and I am an active, founding member of GCS' Simon's Project, which exists to connect and grow our rich diversity in new ways. I have a strong sense of justice and am always ready to advocate for new voices to be lifted up and heard.
