“Lynda has a clear theological grounding for her work as a minister, and a solid focus on the joy of enabling other people to live with more integrity and creativity. Lynda\u2019s deep grounding in what nurtures her spirit, and what sustains her in making a difference in the world, enables her to offer that same grounding to others as a genuine gift, and not as an external demand. She is a skilled teacher, one who is deeply attuned to where people are, and from that awareness, is able to help them live in ways that do make a difference in the world, as well as make a difference in the individuals with whom she works.” – Sharon Welch, Meadville Lombard Professor and Provost<\/strong>, in her letter of recommendation for Lynda to the MFC. See her full letter of recommendation here<\/a>.
\n<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n“Lynda is particularly gifted in taking a personal story or perspective and making it relevant on a broader scale, which allows her to make connections to the congregation in multiple ways. Her style of presentation is thoughtful, friendly, and encouraging, and, at the same time, she challenges the congregation to think more deeply about the topic.” – Sue Hill, Chair, CVUU Internship Lay Committee<\/strong><\/p><\/blockquote>\n
“I have never met a candidate for ministry who has take as much advantage of the offerings provided by our association as Lynda. What\u2019s particularly striking to me is the broad range of topics these offerings have covered. – Phil Lund, MidAmerica UUA staff member<\/strong> in charge of spiritual growth, social justice, faith development, multicultural competency, social media and ministry.

\n“As the Worship Associate for this service (Journey to Selma) I was mostly involved in the execution of the service and had a small part in visiting with Lynda regarding the content of her sermon.\u00a0 The entire service flowed very well from the opening words to the benediction.\u00a0 Each part connected to the sermon title \u201cJourney to Selma\u201d.\u00a0 The children\u2019s story and the children\u2019s choir \u201cThere Is More Love Somewhere\u201d dovetailed nicely with the sermon.\u00a0 The meditation also focused on preparing the congregation for the sermon.<\/p>\n
“This special anniversary [of the March to Selma], captured in Lynda\u2019s sermon, helped\u00a0 remind all of us that Unitarian Universalism is not a shallow faith but a dynamic religion that focuses on social justice for all. Supporting Lynda was easy to do, due to her organization and direction given to me, the worship associate.”\u00a0 – John Miller, CVUU Worship Associate<\/strong> and member of Religious Services Committee<\/p><\/blockquote>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
