Claudia Aguilar Rubalcava
About the Teacher
Why study with them?
Rev. Claudia Aguilar Rubalcava is the director of engagement at More Light Presbyterians. She grew up in Mexico City, with her parents -a jazz musician and a dentist/psychologist – and her two siblings. Mexico City is still her favorite place in the world, and she hopes to move back there one day.
Rev. Aguilar believes words and everyday actions have the power to shape people’s lives and the world’s future, a belief that led her to participate as a member of the editorial board of the new Book of Common Worship, co-author of the Connections Worship Companion by WJK, and as author of liturgy and articles for Call to Worship. She has served the church as campus minister, pastor, associate dean of students, and seminary admissions staff.
Being bilingual, bicultural, and binational is part of her call to build bridges among different groups of people. She is a certified yoga instructor and loves music, dogs, cooking, and baking.
She is interested in ecumenical and interfaith efforts to bring justice and peace to every sentient being. When not working, she is spending time in her garden with her husband Doug and their dogs, hiking with friends, or trying to replicate and improve authentic Mexican dishes with limited access to ingredients.
