What's up?!

I am Pastor Anders Nilsen and I am the current Chaplain at the Chapel of the Holy Spirit. I would love to meet you! 

About Me

I am an ordained Pastor in the Evangelical Lutheran Church in America (ELCA), and am thrilled to be serving the Episcopal Diocese of Louisiana as the chaplain at The Chapel. I am originally from Columbus, Ohio and am learning to live and deal with the heat in New Orleans. 

​

I believe strongly in the radical, abundant, out-pouring of love that is present in God and in the teachings and life of God's son Jesus. That is a love for ALL people regardless of race, creed, religion, who they love, how they identify, how they vote... you get the point. I hope that we can create a community where all feel welcomed and loved in their wanderings and their wonderings at the Chapel. 

​

My wife, Nichole and our two Bernese Mountain Dogs, Teddy and Lars, are around campus a lot and would love to meet you. If you have any questions, or are seeking a listening ear, or a warm meal on Thursday nights, or a place to investigate what this whole "Faith" thing is about, I hope that you will stop by. I am always available by email or by calling or texting the number below.

Let's grab coffee, or lunch, or dinner, or stop by the Chapel!
