Pastor
Country of origin
Germany

Inga Meißner is a pastor in St. Marien in Luebeck (aka “Mutter der Backsteingotik”) and interested in establishing new forms of rituals for baptism, wedding and other blessing-situations (“Projekt: segensreich”).

"While I studied theology in Hamburg, I used to go to cinema with my brother once a week. Then we preferred blockbusters, while now it´s more of independent films, indeed. We love to discuss films until now, which is 20 years later. So of course, I like films and cinema, but actually I didn´t deal with them on professional terms yet. But indeed I´m obsessed of stories and the way how to tell them. I’m a poetry-slammer and like to have a look at the structure of a story told."
