Heidi Neumark’s life changed when a few computer keystrokes exposed generations of family secrets, raising questions she could not answer: How did she never know of her grandfather’s murder? Or that her grandmother was a death-camp survivor? Why had the family history and Jewish faith been hidden? What did this mean for her work as a pastor, community organizer, and advocate with marginalized and oppressed communities? Seeking answers to these questions, Heidi traveled across the ocean and into the depths of her soul to encounter a family and spiritual heritage she never knew she had.
For any who have had secrets, closeted identities, and silence shape their lives, Heidi’s journey is a courageous call to discover what can happen when all that has been hidden is finally brought to light.
Heidi Neumark’s event is open to the broader community, AND it also will launch our next Ancestry Creative Expression Circle which will start this fall. Registration for this program will be in an upcoming Bulletin.
