Pr. Sarah Mayer-Flatt, Synod Storyteller, will share stories of her own, as well as stories that are part of our shared life in southeast Michigan. You can look for them throughout the year. You are welcome to quote from her stories, share them friends, or put them in your church newsletter, and remember to give Pr. Sarah credit if you do so: “Take a Seat” + article title.
