Rev. Jessica Abell is an ordained American Baptist minister focused on climate justice and building up the Beloved Community. Informed by both advanced training in urban and city policy and planning and decades of experience in professional ministry, her vision is biblically based but contemporary and practical -an Ecological Applied Theology, she once called it.

Jessica is the founding pastor of a small interfaith church, that is, few members would identify as Christian, although they all respect her Gospel focus. Living Waters meets throughout the Denver metro region and also hosts a book group at a Capitol Hill coffee shop.
