Our Presenter

This seminar will be taught by the Rev. Karen Lampe, who successfully developed and implemented this ministry at the Church of the Resurrection in Kansas. We will gather in  our Becker Hall worship space as she shares with us such topics as the theology of care, the importance of praying first in all things, boundaries, visitation, listening and spiritual guidance, and caring for those who are dying.
