In past ministries, she has served as a religious educator for a number of congregations, including All Souls Indy in Indianapolis, IN; Accotink UU Church in Burke, VA; and Westminster Unitarian Church in East Greenwich, RI.

Prior to her time in congregational religious education, Sarah Gettie served as the Team Leader Chaplain at Methodist Hospital in Omaha, NE, where she was an active member of the Palliative Care Team and Ethics Committee, often leading clinical staff trainings.

Sarah Gettie completed her MDiv from Meadville Lombard Theological School and afterward, completed five units of Clinical Pastoral Education.

Sarah Gettie finds spiritual nourishment in hiking; rolling around in leaf piles with her two children; and finds peace in mindfulness meditation. She resides in Bloomington, Indiana with her kiddos, her husband, and their houseful of pups, cats, and rats.

The five of us have all known for some time that we, collectively, need to learn how to do a better job welcoming and fully including neurodivergent people in our congregations. As UUA and UUMA staff, we haven’t known how to do this or how we should help.
