91´óÉñ will launch February “” activities with a presentation by local author and speaker Angie B. Williams of Harrisonburg.

Ms. Williams will speak on “Joy in Adversity” 10 a.m. Wednesday, Feb. 1, in 91´óÉñ’s Lehman Auditorium. (Click here for a complete schedule of activities!)

Sharing out of her own personal tragedies – including the loss of three babies and breast cancer – she will offer ways to achieve a balance between complacent resignation and faith in God’s power to have joy and victory while dealing with life’s trials.

Williams, a wife, mother, grandmother and retired federal employee, has been widely used in ministry in the United States and Canada. She has written a book, “Joy in Adversity” (21st Century Press) and was ordained in 2005 as a “pastor for special ministries” in Mennonite Church USA.

The chapel program is open to everyone free of charge.
