5/28/2010

The Rev. Amanda B. (Mandy) Brady has been called as Episcopal chaplain to Emory University by Bishop J. Neil Alexander of the Episcopal Diocese of Atlanta.

Brady will coordinate the Episcopal Campus Ministry at Emory and serve as a pastor to the university’s students and faculty on behalf of the bishop and diocese. Her new role is effective July 1.

Brady is a graduate of The College of William and Mary, where she earned a degree in chemistry. For four years before entering seminary, she worked for a chemical engineer in research and development in the field of adsorption. Her master of divinity is from The General Theological Seminary, New York, N.Y.

Ordained a priest 1997 by then-Bishop of Atlanta Frank Allan, she has served several parishes in Georgia and in Illinois, where she recently completed two years as interim rector for St. Mark’s Episcopal Church, Evanston.

"I am delighted to welcome Mandy Brady back to the ministry of the Diocese of Atlanta,” said Alexander. “She brings an uncommonly broad range of pastoral experience and skill that will serve the Emory University community with effectiveness and grace. I am particularly pleased that our seminarians at the Candler School of Theology will have such a strong and devoted priestly mentor."
