Pastor, teacher, author, podcast host and conference speaker, Dr. Lynda K. Davis has served in ministry for over twenty years.

She hosted the weekly “Breath of Life” Radio Broadcast on KSTL 690 FM in St. Louis. In collaboration with the Christian Activity Center in East St. Louis, IL, she mentored underserved young girls through the “Girl Talk” Program.

The hospital is an accredited member center of ACPE, a member of the St. Louis Cluster, ACPE, and is accredited under the standards of the Association for Clinical Pastoral Education, Inc.

 

Her volunteerism is evident from her time spent providing assistance and direction to women through the St. Louis Women’s Crisis Hotline.
