Celebration of Life - 11am
"Prairie Pastors: The Legacy of the Iowa Sisterhood,"
Ms. Lynn Garner, preaching
In little more than a month, we'll ordain Lynne, one of our former Board presidents, to the Unitarian Universalist ministry. We'll hear just some of the fruits of our scholarly labors this morning as she preaches on a 19th Century precursor to the strong presence of women in the liberal clergy in the late 20th/ early 21st Centuries. It helped support one of our own-the Reverend Dr. Rowena Morse Mann-and it happened on the prairies not far from Chicago. What's more-Lynne's topic was the result of an early Auction bidding contest won by Jerry Jaecks!
