Enikő comes to Westminster after 8 years of serving as assistant pastor at Southminster Presbyterian Church in Richmond, VA, where she facilitated the mission and outreach work of the congregation and its justice ministry within the interfaith grassroots network Richmonders Involved in Strengthening Communities (RISC).
Prior, she worked as Program Coordinator for an MA in Missiology program at the Protestant Institute for Mission Studies, as well as set up and coordinated a Refugee Integration Program within the Reformed Church in Hungary, based in Budapest.
Enikő loves exploring the intersection of faith and public life both in her ministry and personal life. Having spent significant time in Israel/Palestine as a PC(USA) Young Adult Volunteer, and later as a participant in WCC’s Ecumenical Accompaniment Programme for Palestine and Israel (EAPPI), she is a passionate advocate for peace and reconciliation in the region, and is happy to share about her experiences both through workshops and personal conversations.
She holds a chemical engineering degree from the University of Babes-Bolyai in Cluj, Romania, and earned her Ph. D. from Union Presbyterian Seminary in Richmond, VA, where she also served as the International Student Advisor. “Beyond Borders: Toward a Migration-Conscious Theology of Mission for the Reformed Church in Hungary,” is the title of her dissertation.
Outside of church commitments, you will find Enikő enjoying the outdoors, her new garden plot at the community garden on Spink Street, and exploring cultural events. A native of Transylvania, Romania, and having spent many years in Virginia, she welcomes suggestions about fun places and things to discover in Ohio.
