A sermon by Rev. Rebecca White Newgren at Second Congregational UCC / First Presbyterian PCUSA Church of Rockford, Illinois
“The way we see our history, the way we tell our stories matters.. So let us tell them with grace and imagination and creativity, for that is what God propels us to do and be. As we look back, take another look if you do not see God’s handiwork. Beg God to show you where She has been. Because God has been there, God has been here, God has been with us and with me.” – Rev. Rebecca White Newgren
