Rev. Jennifer McCracken (she/her) – Pastor to MANNA.
A long career as a Registered Nurse, including several years working with Boston Healthcare for the Homeless, taught me that accompanying people in times of great suffering is both an honor and a privilege and brought me closer to Christ with each encounter. After a life-changing experience in Haiti, my relationship with God deepened and my faith journey took a turn I never could have imagined. Ordained as priest in 2019, I now serve as Head Pastor to the MANNA community. My many years with MANNA as a lay person, prior to even thinking about ordination, helped me to develop a sense of belonging with the community and with people on the margins. This community continues to teach me about finding Christ in the world and in each other.
