We will have with us, Ms. Rachel Alley (ELCA Program Director for Youth Ministries), Ms. Janelle Hooper (ELCA Program Director for Children's Ministries), and Ms. Dawn Rundman (works on a team that develops resources for kids, youth, and adults published by Sparkhouse and Augsburg Fortress).   Collectively, these faithful disciples have learned from, listened to, and worked alongside many faithful disciples over the years and have brought to bear that wisdom in many useful and faithful resources.
