My friend Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez is absolutely tenacious in her belief that the worldwide church is a gift, that God means for it to be healthy and holy, and that though it might appear very bruised, it is NOT broken. I am grateful for her and for her new book, Being a Sanctuary, which is both a loving correction and an invitation for churches to be sacred, soft, and safe. May we all hold fast to that vision and may we work toward it, bit by bit, in the places where we live.

Pricelis Perreaux-Dominguez (MSW, MSEd) is a truth-teller and space builder committed to helping the Body of Christ be healthy and holy.
