Preacher Lady

Stepping out on her own at mid-life, Connie remakes herself with a new career. Along with her faithful dog, Sam, she moves to her first solo assignment as a pastor. This account takes Connie through that first year at Old West where she beats down the antagonism of being a woman in what is considered by some to be a man's job while attempting to revitalize a traditional church. Connie seeks guidance from multiple resources as she attempts to help those in her congrgation with age-old problems, such as loneliness, grief, inability to forgive, poor health, dealing with difficult people, and abuse. Sam goes to work with Connie each day and is sometimes immense help but then there are days that he gets into mischief and acts like what is expected from a dog.
