And whatever you do, in word or deed, do everything in the name of the Lord Jesus, giving thanks to God the Father through him.” – Colossians 3:17

Keynote Speaker

Katherine Leary Alsdorf

KAlsdorf
Founder and Director Emeritus of the
Center for Faith & Work at Redeemer Presbyterian Church in New York City

She is also a Contributor to the book
Every Good Endeavor and leader in the Theology of Work.

Having founded CFW in 2002, Katherine served as its Executive Director until December 2012. In this role, she set the vision and strategy of the Center’s core programs, developed lay and staff leadership, and guided strategicpartnerships. Prior to this ministry role, Katherine spent twenty years in the high tech industry in California and New York.

“One of the greatest disconnects for this generation is how  life and work fit together. There is a need to talk about  purpose in life, vocation and calling. We need to provide a  stronger theology of work to help them make integrated  connections to their daily lives.” David Kinnaman
