Knippa Interfaith Lecture: Rev. Kate Breastrup

The 37th Annual Knippa Interfaith/Ecumenical Lecture will be held on Sunday February 4th at 4:00 p.m. at Grace Lutheran Church, 5th and S. Lewis Ave. in Tulsa, OK. Distinguished faith leader and author Kate Braestrup will be the  guest lecturer.

Rev. Braestrup divides her time between her service as chaplain to the Maine Warden Service and her writing. Her most recent book, Anchors and Flares, reminds us that the threats we cannot predict have the power to knit us together as much as to rip us apart and that, as parents, we are as often called upon to bear loving witness as to be a guiding light. Other notable books by Braestrup include Here If You Need Me, Marriage and Other Acts of Charity,” and Beginner’s Grace.

Braestrup is a popular public speaker around the country and abroad, entertaining and educating interested audiences with her characteristic honesty, good humor and poignancy.

Books by Kate Braestrup will be available for sale at the event on February 4th.

In recognition of the distinguished ministry of the Rev. Dr. Clarence W. Knippa, an endowment fund for a lecture series was established on the occasion of the 50th anniversary of his ordination. The purpose of The Knippa Interfaith/Ecumenical Lecture Series is to foster and promote understanding, respect, and appreciation for the religious and ethical traditions and concerns of others.
