Rev. Karen Smith Sellers (UCC Minnesota Conference Minister) attended UCC today to present Sandy with the Leyseth Award.  Sandy was given the award at the conference in June, but Karen came to UCC today to share this announcement with our congregation.  The Layseth 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. Karen Smith Sellers was introduced by Molly Woehrlin the chair of the Congregation, Minister Relations Committee (MCRC).

Today was also Sandy’s birthday and we celebrated with cake and ice cream after worship.
