Chelsea Simon asserts, is our undivided attention. \u201cIt is honoring and holy,\u201d she said, \u201cto be with someone, to hear their story and to be present with them.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chelsea proves that point again and again as associate pastor of San Dieguito United Methodist Church in Encinitas, California. Her focus is community outreach.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Starting a small group for young adults in the LGBTQIA+ community proved especially eye-opening for Chelsea. She saw the harm the church has caused individuals who identify as LGBTQIA+.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cBecause of my relationships with the group members,\u201d she said, \u201cI wanted to start a worship service that was fully affirming and inclusive.\u201d She and her colleagues called it The Collective Table <\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">(<\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.thecollectivetable.org\/\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">www.TheCollectiveTable.org<\/span><\/a><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">)<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cWe worked for a year to form a launch team, build momentum, and plan all aspects of how our church community would operate,\u201d Chelsea reflected. Then COVID-19 hit, and they had to move everything online.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Undeterred by the pandemic, The Collective Table blossomed. \u201cAlongside my ministry partner, Dana Black, we have had some amazing interviews for our podcast, like Rob Bell, Otis Moss III, and Jennifer Knapp,\u201d Chelsea said. \u201cWe have created innovative and life-giving experiences for The Collective Table\u2019s community, which now spans all over the country.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chelsea recently was honored as a Distinguished Alumna of Claremont School of Theology.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The alumnus who nominated Chelsea for the award said, \u201cThrough The Collective Table, Chelsea is making faith accessible to everyday people who are living everyday lives. The podcasts both inform and inspire, taking on challenging theological ideas and making them available to listeners. In this call, Chelsea is making a difference in the lives of hundreds of people who are impacting their communities and their world.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chelsea didn\u2019t plan to become a pastor.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Growing up in Pittsburgh, she had an idyllic childhood. \u201cI had loving parents, a stable home life, a good education, plenty of friends and fun activities,\u201d she said. \u201cAnd from an early age, I had a deep love of God.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Church provided sanctuary for the shy girl. \u201cI felt safe there,\u201d Chelsie said. \u201cI never missed youth group, read my Bible all of the time, volunteered for every service project available, spent my summers at church camp, listened to Christian music, and even worked at the Family Christian Bookstore.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Not realizing that women could become pastors, Chelsea decided to become a therapist. After completing an undergraduate degree in psychology, she moved to San Diego. She pursued a master\u2019s degree in clinical mental health counseling from the University of San Diego and worked as a campus minister. Living in the residence halls, she ministered to college students and helped organize service projects, particularly day trips to Tijuana, Mexico.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">At USD, Chelsea also obtained a certificate in pastoral care and counseling. \u201cI was introduced to some of the great theologians like Paul Tillich, Thomas Merton, and Mary Daly,\u201d she said. \u201cI was falling more in love with theology and ministry, and I was hoping there was a way to stay connected with all I was learning.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">After graduation in 2011, Chelsea began working as the youth director at San Dieguito UMC. It was a perfect fit.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cEach week,\u201d she explained, \u201cI got to plan craft lessons to engage youth in their faith. I got to introduce them to the Jesus I knew and provide opportunities for them to live out their faith. I loved this position. I loved the youth and the church. After a year, I was also able to work with children and families, planning Sunday school, family camp, and children\u2019s moments.\u201d\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Recognizing Chelsea\u2019s genuine gifts for ministry, the associate pastor encouraged her to consider seminary.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI did not feel worthy of becoming a pastor,\u201d Chelsea said, \u201cbut I started to pray about it.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">During a morning devotional, she read the familiar story of Peter joining Jesus to walk on the water. \u201cI had always been so annoyed at Peter for sinking in the sea,\u201d Chelsea admitted. \u201cWhy, when Jesus is right in front of you, would you take your eyes off of Jesus and pay attention to the waves? But this time when I read the story, I saw something different.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cPeter was the only disciple to get out of the boat. He was the only one brave enough to try to walk alongside Jesus. And when he inevitably started to sink, Jesus was right there to grab him.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She applied to Claremont School of Theology the next day.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chelsea appreciates the seminary\u2019s openness to many faith traditions. \u201cI think CST is unique in its diversity and inclusiveness,\u201d she said. \u201cIt offers an expansive understanding of God, theology, and ministry. CST\u2019s emphasis on interreligious studies was another important aspect I wanted to incorporate into my ministry.\u201d<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">In 2017, the same year Chelsea graduated from CST, she was ordained as a deacon in The United Methodist Church and appointed as associate pastor of San Dieguito UMC.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">She is grateful for the \u201cwonderful, generous, engaged, passionate, and thoughtful congregation\u201d and considers herself blessed to have experienced their love and support through discernment, seminary, and the ordination process.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Family is integral to Chelsea\u2019s life. On a typical morning, she reads a morning devotional and spends a few minutes in prayer. Then she and her husband Ryan get their two children \u2013 Max, 4, and Whitney, 2 \u2013 ready for preschool at the church.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Then Chelsea\u2019s workday begins. Not surprising, the toughest part is setting boundaries.\u00a0\u201cI am still learning how to do this,\u201d Chelsea said. \u201cAt this stage, everything feels exciting, and I feel the pressure of birthing something new. It feels like an important responsibility, and I don\u2019t want to mess it up. Then I remember that God is in control. I just need to be faithful to the work and to my calling.\u201d\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The Collective Table draws a variety of people, including some who were ready to give up on church and their faith. \u201cAs TCT picks up momentum and more possibilities come to light,\u201d Chelsea said, \u201cit has a growing sense of creativity and reachability.&#8221;\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Chelsea also is confident that she is a beloved child of God.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">\u201cI tell that to so many people, so many times,\u201d she said, \u201cthat somewhere along the way, I truly started believing it. I know, in the depths of my heart and soul, that I am good and I am loved. It is from that place of deep knowing that I can remind others of their belovedness.&#8221;<\/span><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>The greatest gift we can give others, the Rev.
