Pastor Sandy was awarded the 2008 Leysath Award tonight at the UCC MN Annual Conference in St. Joseph.

The Leysath Award is given to a person who lifts up the role of women in ministry, provides new life in the church and community , and who continues to grow through further education. Rev. Dr. Karen Smith Sellers, our Conference Minister, made the presentation at tonight’s awards event. Smith Sellers cited Sandy’s exemplary service to the conference Committee on Minstry and her own congregation at First UCC, Northfield.

Congratulations Pastor Sandy on this well deserved honor.
