The keynote speaker for this weekend’s free Discipleship Conference is Jerusalem Greer, Manager of Evangelism & Discipleship for The Episcopal Church. Ms. Greer will be speaking at both the Friday and Saturday sessions.
In her own words: Ministry is in my blood and my soul, I love both church work and the Work of the Church. I like to host large gatherings at our farm, sleep under heavy blankets, talk to chickens, heal goats, re-arrange the furniture, take road trips with my boys, and read Inspector Gamache mysteries. I am addicted to British Television, prefer singing with a twang at the top of my lungs, and have a strong affection for coffee and Cosmos (not together, however). I am part southern gal, part pilgrim. I am a liturgical convert. I love Jesus. I trust the Holy Spirit. My vocation lies in living, exploring, and sharing about the Christian theology of place.
