Lutheran pastor discovers her Jewish roots

The Reverend Heidi Neumark was raised Lutheran and became a Lutheran Pastor. He daughter found the interesting tidbit about the Jewish background and they did more research. The family history includes the  horror of a concentration camp. An article in the Duluth News Tribune yesterday tells the story of the journey and how it developed into a book. She will be talking about the journey in Duluth on Thursday of this week. As the article states,

“It’s a spiritual journey. It’s a personal journey. It’s a journey about what do we keep from each other inside of families. What I hope is that people come away with a sense of being willing to face what’s in their own families and build stronger and broader relationships as a consequence of that,”

The article tells more of the story.
