Rev. Anita Hill

Evangelical Lutheran Church in America

Saint Paul, MN

This deacon’s stole was worn by Anita from May 1994 when she was installed as Pastoral Minister of St. Paul-Reformation Lutheran Church (Saint Paul, MN), until the date of her “irregular” (read extraordinary) service of ordination on April 28, 2001. The Rev. Anita C. Hill was officially received as a member of the clergy roster of the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America on September 18, 2010. Hill played a significant role in the change in policy of the ELCA to allow openly LGBT clergy who are in relationships to serve on the rosters of her denomination.
