Rev. Bran Lennox is delighted to have begun serving as the minister of the Unitarian Church of Harrisburg as of August 2024.

They bring their creative drive and their love of worship arts as they collaborate with this phenomenal staff team.
Rev. Bran began their path to ministry as the Director of Music at First Parish in Malden, MA, where they were inspired them to apply to seminary. They received their Masters of Divinity from Meadville Lombard Theological School, completed their ministerial internship at Mount Diablo UU Church in Walnut Creek, California, and was honored to return to First Parish in Malden for their ordination in 2021. While preparing for their first solo ministry search, Rev.

Rev. Bran identifies as nonbinary, trans, queer, neuroatypical, and multiply disabled. They consider these identities and their accompanying experiences to be a source of connection and compassion in their work as in all they do. They are always excited to learn new things, especially about the people in their communities. In their free time, Rev. Bran enjoys spending time in nature, listening to audiobooks, and the occasional industrial music show. Rev. Bran takes tremendous joy in their work as a minister, and hopes to always spread that joy to those they serve.
