Roots of Faith Announces First Executive Director
Kathleen Stanley has been named the first Executive Director of Roots of Faith! Kathleen brings a wealth of experience, as well as deep, established relationships to her new role. Knowing the community will benefit from her leadership, Faith UMC’s Leadership Board is thrilled to celebrate this milestone and Kathleen’s work among us. Please join us in congratulating her!
Roots of Faith began ten years ago as a ministry of Faith UMC. Through a process of discernment and prayer, and lots of hard work by our staff and volunteers, Roots of Faith is now on track to become its own non-profit corporation within the next few months. As we continue to move through that transition, Faith UMC remains committed to participating alongside Roots of Faith in the life-giving ministry happening. We also look forward to this new day and the blossoming of a dream. God is good!
