I recently sat down with Annika O’Melia of Rock Island Line for a two hour conversation about trauma recovery, the congregation I am called to serve, St. John’s Lutheran church in Rock Island, Illinois, and our version of being firmly planted in our neighborhood. So take a listen.
Like most people I have many identifiers. Currently I call myself writer, author, minister of Word and sacrament in the ELCA, and child development specialist. I am also a mother, widow, wife, sister, and daughter. My pronouns are she/hers.
