    Heather McGregor - Special Guest Episode

    Heather McGregor was ordained in 1994 and went on to serve as a hospital and nursing home chaplain. In this interview, she describes the particularly challenging experience she had going before the examining council on her road to ordination, and the contributions she made towards improving that experience for future ordination candidates. Called to Serve is a new podcast featuring the stories of women ordained by churches within the Canadian Baptists of Atlantic Canada.  Between 1950 and 2020, over one hundred women were ordained to ministry in Atlantic Baptist churches and around the world. Our project shares and preserves these women's experiences--the joys and challenges they  faced, and the impact they've made through their ministries. Called to Serve is funded by a grant from the Social Sciences and Humanities Research Council of Canada and is led by Rev. Dr. Melody Maxwell of Acadia Divinity College.
