Rev. Vicky Hanjian
Listening is our bridge to the wisdom of sacred texts and spiritual teachers. Kay Lindahl, in her book by the same title writes: There’s something beyond technique when two or more people are deeply listening to each other. It is an awareness that not only are we present to each other, we are present to something that is spiritual, holy, sacred.
Vicky Hanjian is an ordained elder in the Unite Methodist Church and a member of the First Congregational Church of West Tisbury where she currently serves as Deacon for Spiritual Nourishment. She and Armen are celebrating 30 years of year round life on the Island.
