Nate Paulin-Wieland, Endorsed Ecclesiastical Chaplain

Nate Paulin-Wieland is a chaplain, poet, husband, and aspiring gardener. St. Paul’s Free Methodist Church endorses his practice of hospital chaplaincy at Barnes-Jewish Hospital on the Illiniwek land temporarily known as St. Louis, MO. He finds himself drawn to the hospital setting as a way to come alongside others in their suffering, be an advocate for patients, and connect more deeply to his own humanity.
