 Congratulations to our philosopher pianist, Michaeleen Kelly!  Micki has just had her article, Interality and Legal Rights published in the China Media Research Journal issue 15.4 (2019).  The paper philosophically explores the legal rights of those who are in an “in between” state, such as the dying, the transgendered, and refugees without a country.  (Copies of the paper are available if you would like to read it.)  Congratulations, Micki!
 
 Pastor Karen will be on vacation and out of town, July 30th - August 5th.  If you are in need of pastoral care, please call:  Rev. Tom Lawton: 616-874-7045; Rev. Laurie TenHave-Chapman: 616 866-2412; or Rev. Helen Havlik: 616 363-6864. Thank you for this time of rest and recuperation!
