Kristin Oakes Friedery is very excited to be part of the discourse on Peacemaker Revolution. As the youngest active elder at her conservative Presbyterian church in New Orleans, LA, she often confronts (and is confronted by) the generational gap that seems to face most of the "modern church." Having lived all over the United States, Kristin now resides in New Orleans where she works as a volunteer recruiter and coordinator for Volunteers of America. She loves living in the Big Easy but is always on the lookout for her next adventure. Kristin graduated from University of Colorado in Boulder with a B.A. in English-Literature and can usually be found spending her free time with a cup of tea and a good book. Likes: nonprofits, blogs, and roadtrips. Dislikes: cottage cheese, sneezing, and weak magnets. Feel free to drop her a line at kofriedery@gmail.com.
