Who’s Your Hero?
Time: 5:30 PM – 6:45 PM
Description of Class One: Be inspired by hearing about others’ spiritual heroes each night. What makes them inspirational? How have they shaped and encouraged faith? Pastors and lay leaders share their spiritual heroes, the ones they look too, read, and draw inspiration from own for their own faith journey. Learn about specific faith heroes, while considering, “who are yours?”
Teachers: Pastor Pete Beckstrand, Pastor Carrie Anderson, Pastor Linda McPeak, Pastor Meg Hoversten & Dorene Jenson
