New Aging Grace-Fully series starts July 30

Author, public theologian and leadership coach Rozella Haydée White opens the 2026 series of “Aging Grace-Fully” programs on Thursday, July 30. These livestream presentations and conversations are focused on the physical, mental and social challenges that come with growing older. Join us to hear her talk and then share in a discussion. With more than two decades of experience in nonprofit and church leadership, White brings both pastoral depth and strategic clarity to conversations about faith in wilderness seasons. She writes and teaches about spirituality that sustains leaders over the long haul — spirituality rooted not in performance, but in presence. White is the author of Love Big: The Power of Revolutionary Relationships to Heal the World and a contributor to multiple publications exploring leadership, justice, womanist theology, intergenerational wisdom and embodied faith. White obtained her Master of Arts in Religion with Honors from the Lutheran Theological Seminary at Philadelphia (now United Lutheran Seminary) and Bachelor of Arts in Sociology and African Studies (Cum Laude) from Texas Southern University in Houston, Texas. She received her Certification in Youth Ministry from the Center for Youth Ministry at Wartburg Theological Seminary in Dubuque, Iowa. She completed four units of chaplaincy training with Emory Center for Pastoral Services in Atlanta, Georgia, and is a certified disaster chaplain through the National Disaster Interfaith Network.
