The Strength of Faith: Fourth Festivities

I am an ordained minister and a food blogger. The combination is pretty epic. Welcome to The Strength of Faith!

A little bit about me ...

I live in Southeast Massachusetts with my husband and our 4 year old gray tabby cat, Lilly. I am a 2007 graduate of Ursinus College and received a Master of Divinity from the Candler School of Theology at Emory University in 2010.

I recently started my ministry as the Senior Pastor of Rehoboth Congregational Church in Rehoboth, Massachusetts. They are a wonderful group of people who minister to me as much as I do to them. Every day I continue to be amazed at the unexpected grace I find in my life.

This blog documents my life as I try to figure out what it means to live faithfully and mindful of my health in a world full of distractions. I post my workouts and pictures of my daily eats in order to help me find balance in my life. I post recipes as I seek to develop creativity in the kitchen. I am on a lifelong quest to be happy and healthy.

Thank you for stopping by – I look forward to getting to know you!

Fourth Festivities

Posting from Connecticut!

My parents host a 4th of July picnic for my dad's family every year and they've been partying strong since Friday night. I've been dying to get over here! Bruce has been here since TUESDAY helping get the house ready! I was lonely in Rehoboth by myself!

My cousins brought campers, vans, tents and we've pretty much got every corner of my parents stuffed with people, food and drinks. Party time!
