Kate Braestrup on “Speaking of Faith”

Just a quick note that Unitarian Universalist minister and author Rev. Kate Braestrup is the guest this week on “Speaking of Faith” (download available here) an American public radio program about religion. Braestrup wrote Here if You Need Me, an acclaimed memoir about the death of her husband, Drew, and her subsequent decision to become a UU chaplain with the Maine Warden Service.

Braestrup also spoke recently at the Unitarian Universalist Association, when she received the UUA’s Melcher Book Award. Her talk was lively and meaningful. She described Drew and his commitment to BGLT rights, which he defended in his work in a trooper and in volunteer service to his congregation. See the videos below for the full talk.
