In Episode 34, we are joined by Lori Jennings, Vice-President of American Baptist Churches of PA and DE (ABCOPAD), Head Coach of the Leadership Team, and Home Church leader for GraceCrossing Community Church in Phoenixville, PA. Lori also serves as a short-term missionary in Uganda, where she combats the prosperity gospel by sharing truth with pastors and teaching children about the real living God and the hope in Christ. She is preparing for her third trip to Uganda in July 2024.
Lori’s daytime career is as the Public Information Officer for The Township of Lower Merion in Ardmore, PA. She is married to Ronnie and has two children, two grandchildren, and countless kids she has become a “mom” to in both the Phoenixville area and Uganda.
In this episode, we delve into Lori's work with Fresh Expressions, exploring how they reach and care for the community, foster ecumenical partnerships, and embody the hope of the church. We also discuss discipleship within her home church and her unique approach to ministry. Join us for an inspiring conversation on making a tangible impact in diverse communities.
