The Rev. Virginia Heistand

The Rev. Canon Virginia Heistand was ordained in 1991. One former parishioner remarked that it sometimes feels as though she attended seminary in the 1940s, thanks to the wisdom and stories passed down from her family, which included two bishops and two additional priests — all of whom still get quoted often! She and her husband, Jim Wilson, are a “love at last” couple whose family includes five children, three in-law children, and three precious grandchildren (though she says to stay tuned in case the count increases). After 35 years in parish ministry, Reverend Virginia considers it a true joy to continue serving the church through supply ministry.
