| I love to discuss spiritual and theological questions. I also love theatre, movies, reading, hiking, dancing, and graphic arts. My mission is to work with others to create an environment where people will feel invited to grow more deeply into their relationship with God through Jesus Christ.
I believe that the Church is called to be actively engaged with the world Jesus came to redeem and that Christians cannot wait for the world to walk into the doors of local churches. I also believe that the Episcopal Church is uniquely qualified and gifted to minister to others in this way. Peace and Blessings, Mother Susan |
