She says: ”In all times, the Church, whether the local church or the seminary, gives me hope. I don’t understand it most days, this hope, how it comes from something that seems so fallible and imperfect, but I know that it is because God is present there in the places that I least expect, and always, in those places that are the most human. Princeton taught me to keep hoping, keep looking, and keep showing up, and that has stayed with me.”
