Rev. Alice Rose Tewell serves as the Associate Pastor/ Deputy Head of Staff at The New York Avenue Presbyterian Church. She is passionate about integrating children and youth into the vital urban ministries at NYAPC, encouraging each person to show up both in places of brokenness and in places of joy, and promoting a spirit of openness towards experiencing God’s presence in everyday moments of life. She is a lover of the outdoors, and connects to God most concretely when running (often pushing a stroller), gardening, and playing with her family at neighborhood parks.
