Joanie Lindenmeyer has achieved the great accomplishment of writing 3 books in two years – and a theme that spans all three of them is “Love Always Wins”.

In this presentation Lindenmeyer will touch on all 3 of her books, but will be focusing mostly on her second book, Joyously Free. This book aims to encourage LBGTQ+ people to find courage to live their truths, and the book provides solid guidance for parents and allies to love and support individuals on their rainbow journeys.

This presentation will include readings, discussions, and a Q&A. At the end of the program patrons will be given the opportunity to purchase copies of Lindenmeyer’s works. Copies will also be available in the collection for checkout. Patrons will also leave with a sense of joy and positivity from Lindenmeyer’s infectious positive energy.

Joanie Lindemeyer is 66 years young, a former Sister of St. Joseph of Carondelet Catholic nun who is now an Episcopalian with St. Timothy’s. Joanie serves on the church vestry and in the local community in many ways that include speaking about and promoting LGBTQ+ inclusion.
