Contribution Story

This stole was one of the original 80 stoles that were on display on Sept. 16, 1995 when I set aside my ordination before Heartland Presbytery (see stole #1 for details).  Lois Rifner is a clinical psychologist and ordained Elder in the Presbyterian Church.  She has served as President and long-time volunteer with the Presbyterian Health, Education, and Welfare Association of the Presbyterian Church (USA).  A tireless advocate for children, Lois is the author of We Won't Let It Happen Here!: Preventing Child Abuse in the Church.
