Chris S. Davies is a Connecticut, US native and a Cleveland transplant and a wandering Irish Rover at heart.  She loves the church deeply, and is committed to finding ways to continue to bring the gospel into the world.  She attended Smith College for her undergrad work and Andover Newton for both a Masters of Divinity and Doctor of Ministry.  Chris grew up in the United Church of Christ, and was baptized and ordained within her home congregation in Connecticut.  Chris is a queer femme, a local beer enthusiast, and a creative networker of communities.  She is passionate about justice and Jesus, and is the founder and curator of the Queer Clergy Trading Cards, a project bringing visibility to queer clergy, using humor and irreverence to help change the conversation highlighting the common awe (and absurdities) in faith work.  Chris lives in Cleveland, OH, where she is still seeking community and continuing to learn in faith and live justly, serving Christ in all things.  She serves on the National Staff of the United Church of Christ.
