Lisa Bernstein, Minister for Children and Families
I’ve been attending Christ Church for over thirty years. I love worshipping with my close friends and church family. I enjoy giving, contributing and helping other individuals in my community by volunteering at soup kitchens, mentoring children at local community centers and participating in other youth services. Most of all I love spending time with my sons hiking and exploring God’s wonderful creations.

Sue Hovan, Parish Administrator
Sue has been a parishioner of Christ Church for thirty-seven years and the parish administrative assistant for the last twenty-five years. She was born in England and grew up in the Church of England, so her Anglican roots are deep and cherished. “I especially enjoy reading, knitting, bird watching in my garden and spending time with my grandchildren. My work at Christ Church brings me much joy as do our parishioners who have become friends along the way.

Dottie Cameron, Organist & Choir Director
Dottie Cameron has been organist and choir director at Christ Episcopal for more than 25 years. “My work at Christ Church is a delight because any type of sacred music- from chant to folk and early to modern- is possible as part of the Episcopal service.” She also loves nature and revels in the connection to life and God that she feels when outdoors.
