From September 10th through October 15th, Rev. Kathy Genus will uplift us every Sunday with this wonderful series. There are many heroes of the faith, and there are even more ordinary people of faith—those doing what they can with what they have to make a difference. This series features stories of those often overlooked in our biblical narratives, hoping these characters remind us that we all play a role in shaping God’s story of redemption and grace. Join us in person or live on Facebook!
