Connections- Telling the Story- 2

A bit more of the story-
A day that began with part of the worship team
from Church of St. Andrew
leading our group with singing.

The Power of STORY

Darlene Quiram
The stories lost through the years
The legacy left for another generation to try and find or "make up"

Diane Guelzow
The imagination tickled by the possibilities

Margaret Martens
The past comes to life in a "new story told"

Alice Hedt

Introducing her "Woman of Influence"
and listening to another's story

Trudy Evenden

How did these stories get lost over time?

Nadine Heirs and Deb Wegman
A moment spent together-
discovery

Lola Coyle intently listing to Nancy DeLory

Stories are our gift to the next generation
The fulfillment of God using His people for His purpose in His Kingdom

Think we all want to hear the story that Marilyn Newstrom is telling Yvette Moy

And the smile of Joan Colliflower brings the Joy of HOPE
because our God is Good and Faithful.
