Lindsey Hendrixson

Board Liason, 2009 Krista Colleague

Lindsey Hendrixson joined the Krista Colleague community in 2009 as she was preparing for a year of spending time with youth in Kampala, Uganda through the Mennonite Central Committee’s SALT program. Returning home, she felt the need to further develop “hard” skills to be better equipped to love and serve communities – whether in the States or internationally.  This led to earning a Master of Social Work degree at Columbia University, and the unintended consequence of living far from the NYC subway lines – the joy of a bicycle! Her social work experience includes working with refugee families resettling in Seattle, defendants in NYC and now with those living with Multiple Sclerosis across the U.S. Her husband, Andrew, is a studio artist, and they dream of vocational convergence somewhere at the intersection of faith, art and loving their neighbors.
