For Ministers Wives
If you are the wife of a minister or planning to be, or a former minister's wife, or were reared in a minister's home, this session is especially for you. For ministry couples and families, life can be a unique, fishbowl kind of experience that others don't quite know what to make of. Come hang out with Karen, whose late husband Brent was an Anglican priest, to share some laughs, tears, and support from her experiences and the honesty found in her book The Minister's Wife.
