She's Got The Spirit

One of Reno's few female pastors talks about finding a community of faith. As a young girl, Denise Cordova felt something that she now considers a calling from God to be a spiritual leader. But her family was Catholic. "I thought it would never be possible for me to be a priest," she says. Even if she had been a Protestant, few opportunities existed for women to serve as pastors in an environment where the biblical suggestion that "women should keep silent in church" was taken literally. Things haven't changed much. In Reno, you can almost count the women ministers and rabbis on one hand.

Written by Rory Dowd
Rev. Denise Cordova waits calmly for me as I walk into the sanctuary of Temple Sinai, which also serves as the pulpit for Rev. Cordova's sermons every Sunday. Cordova, who moved to Reno from Rocky Ford, Colo., in 1985, is active in both the gay and lesbian community and in the spiritual community. She has been a member of the Metropolitan Community Church since 1992 and became pastor of the local branch, MCC of the Sierra, five years ago.
