Chaplain Jenny Schindler grew up in Missouri City/Sugar Land, Texas and now calls Galveston home. She obtained her bachelor degree in public relations from Texas Tech University. She earned her master degree in Christian Education at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.

Chaplain Schindler completed her CPE residency at Baylor Scott & White in Temple, TX and a chaplain fellowship in pediatrics at McLane Children’s Medical Center also in Temple, TX. She is a board certified chaplain through the Association for Professional Chaplains.

Jenny has been serving in ministry for over 20 years. She enjoys camping, and is currently on the board of a Christian camp in the Texas hill country. She has been involved in pre-school ministry, youth groups, and singles’ ministry. She enjoys being outside, going to the beach, biking, hiking, photography, and spending time with friends and family. She attends Coastal Community Church in Galveston.

The basis of Jenny’s ministry is God’s love. 1 John 4:11-12 says, “Dear friends, since God so loved us, we also ought to love one another. No one has ever seen God; but if we love one another, God lives in us and His love is made complete in us.” Showing God’s love to someone will hopefully help them with whatever they need whether that is healing, forgiveness, finding hope, peace, or meaning in their situation.

My name is Chaplain Vera Lewis. I am a contemplative, and an empathetic listener who seeks to share joy and peace in all moments of life. I interact well with different personality types. I look forward to offering authentic acceptance for patients, their family, and staff. I enjoy creating contemplative and safe sacred spaces, and a caring and confidential environment in which people can share their sacred stories, emotions, values, hopes and dreams for life. I feel privileged to witness those times when people experience transforming love, acceptance, and healing.

For enjoyment and self-care, I do Tai Chi and Qigong, work in my garden, listen to calm meditative music, meet with my personal spiritual director, and participate as a member of a Peer Supervision Group. I plan to be a reliable asset to the UTMB Organization.
