Pennsylvania Parade #120 - Profiles on Rural Religion: Three Who Care

Religious involvement can be casual; in these three cases, it is not. Sue Jensen is a seminary intern, encountering the Salona Lutheran Church. Sue is suburban-raised, Princeton-educated, and a woman serving as pastor of a small, rural congregation. She is, to say the least, in contrast to her congregation's expectations. Connie Richardson is a rural activist in the Gospel Tabernacle Assembly of God. She sings; she plays the organ; she teaches Sunday school; she is a missionary to her neighbors. And Connie believes: in the biblical "gifts", in prayer, in healing, in her power to perform miracles "in the name of the Lord." Celeste Rhodes Larsen is a nonbeliever in a strongly religious community, a former Jew in a predominantly Christian population, and a creative dance professor at a small teachers college. Her skepticism counterpoints prevailing attitudes. Rural religion is varied, intense, and decidedly alive. From the "Profiles of Rural Religion" series. Produced by P J O'Connell for Penn State Public Broadcasting and The Rural America Documentary Project. ©1979
