Tara, I just listened to my cousin Evon on your podcast. She’s a remarkable person who makes this world a better place. And I deeply admire her. I’m a retired ELCA pastor and I grew up in Pittsburgh and did my undergraduate studies at Thiel College and graduate degrees at the University of Pittsburgh. My seminary was LTSP in Philadelphia. I know Warren, PA, well, but haven’t been there is decades. Thank you for your ministry and wonderful endeavors! I am committed to an 11th commandment: Thou shall not be indifferent.
