A tribute from St James's Church, Piccadilly

Created by deborah 3 months ago
Lisa joined the St James's community in 2018 and developed profound connections with a number of people who responded to her authenticity and generous spirit. We very much appreciated her quiet and reflective presence - and her underlying steely resolve and ability to cut through to what really matters.

Lisa was actively involved in Earth Justice activities at St James's  and was a much-valued member of the steering group for several years. She brought a unique combination of scientific training, a strong sense of justice and love for the world, intellectual rigour, and a pared-back and luminous sense of liturgy. We are so grateful for all her contributions, not least writing blog posts, joining climate marches and vigils and preparing wassail. Those who attended eco-contemplative liturgies designed by Lisa were blessed by her capacity for wonder and honouring of the sacred.

We miss her very much and send our love and prayers to her family. We hope to offer a St James's memorial event for Lisa in the near future.
