She has a BA from the University of the South, Sewanee, TN, and a Masters of Art Business from the University of Manchester, Sotheby's Institute, London. She is currently nearing completion of her Master of Divinity degree from Vanderbilt Divinity School and is on track towards ordination. Her ministry became clear after the tragedy of September 11th in New York City. She provided a voice of hope and healing to the firemen working at Ground Zero and to the many families that lost their homes. It is her ongoing commitment to both families and children suffering from childhood cancer that became a guiding force in her ministry here in Nashville. She continues to work closely with families at Vanderbilt Children's Hospital and the Ronald McDonald House. Farrell has a special interest in creation of liturgy and rituals of healing for church services. She also created and runs a non-profit, The Butterfly Effect, which provides funds for pediatric cancer research at Sloan Kettering Cancer Center in New York City. She has raised over $100, 000 for kids with cancer. It is her energy, compassion, and dedication to pointing people closer to God that guides her ministry at Woodmont Christian Church!
