Sarah Clapham

Sarah was ordained in 2010. She has served at South End Baptist Church and at St. Luke’s Protestant Chapel, as well as at the QEII hospital in Halifax. She describes the importance of chaplaincy and how she practices listening to the Holy Spirit. 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.
