A WONDERFUL ISLAND WOMAN!

MEET NINA CLARK





Nina Clark has a very special diocesan ministry down on the island of Barbados. It was one her mother performed for many years before her. Every Saturday, she cooks lunch for any priest or bishop who wants to stop in - no reservations required. Before we left for the airport on my way back to Louisville, Bishop Jason Gordon took me to her house for lunch. Besides being a successful business woman who rents out her several villas on the island of Bequia, she does this for the bishop and priests of the diocese. She is an outspoken, well educated and all around interesting person to listen to and watch. 
The day I was there, she served a rich, brown, spicy rice pilaf and fried "flying fish." Yes, they have a local fish that actually flies above the water at times. I had a big glass of lemonade to go with it. 

Below are some photos of her home - as interesting as she is! 


Her front gate is decorated with butterflies - something she loves because you see them everywhere.






Now she is a woman I would like to get to know! Her house is as colorful as she is!
