Meet Reverend Beverly
Interim Pastor
Rev. Beverly Friedlander Ostrowski (she/her) joined the staff at St. Andrew in October 2021 from the Presbytery of Greater Atlanta where she has served as an interim ministry specialist and a hospice chaplain. “The opportunity to join the people of St. Andrew as they share the gospel from an inclusive and justice-seeking perspective is exciting and challenging. We all know that living in such a way that all are welcome is both different from most people’s experience of church, and a difficult way of life. I am happy to serve alongside the ‘saints’ of SAPC as they strive to make a safe place for all people to grow and serve God together.”
She lives in Purcellville with her wife, and enjoys regular visits with her family and friends, UGA football, Atlanta United soccer, vegetable and flower gardening, ebikes, genealogy, and discussing/reading anything religion & politics, space or science. Her newest curiosities are about blockchain and cryptocurrencies, and the meaning of an incarnate God in a virtual world.
Rev Bev will serve as the Interim Pastor while St Andrew works to call and commission a permanent Pastor. She can be reached via the church office (540-338-4332) or via email at Beverly.Friedlander@standrew-pres.org.
