What’s in a name? Everything, but you don’t realize it until someone takes it from you. Gertrude Mitchell has a heartfelt story about what happened when she moved to the United States and, on her first day of school, encountered a teacher who had a crass solution for her inability to properly pronounce Gertrude’s name.

Secure a spot in the virtual pew for Jesus, Jazz & Dessert Wine@Vespers, a faith and adult-storytelling series, 5:30pm EST, Saturday, April 10, 2021.
