Lóre Stevens

(rhymes with story)

Lóre Stevens (rhymes with 'story', she/her) is the contract minister for Foothills Unitarian Universalist Fellowship for the 2023-24 church year. Originally from Powell, Tennessee, Lóre attended college in Michigan and then worked for several years at the downtown branch of the Nashville Public Library, assisting folks experiencing homelessness with technology and social services. Lóre joined the First UU Church of Nashville and worked part-time as their Membership Coordinator before becoming an active lay leader and beginning the path to ministry. She received her Master of Divinity from Harvard Divinity School, served on the Board of the Church of the Larger Fellowship, and worked at the UUA New England Region and the UU Service Committee (an independent nonprofit). She completed her ministerial internship at First Universalist Minneapolis.

Lóre identifies as bisexual, biracial (of Mexican and European descent), and an atheist mystic. She enjoys hobbies like sci-fi, Dungeons & Dragons, and illustrated journaling. She's thrilled to return to East Tennessee with her younger brother Zach and two cats, Tezzy and Twinkle. She looks forward to joining with other Tennessee UUs to live our values out loud in the South.
