SPIRIT LAKE, Iowa — Rev. Joe Callahan will speak at the Sept. 11 Iowa Lakes Unitarian Universalist Fellowship Hybrid service. His message will examine the importance of hope through two lenses: Christ’s “Farewell Discourse” in the Bible, and Dr. Viktor E. Frankl’s experience in a concentration camp, recounted in his book “Man’s Search for Meaning.”
Callahan was born in England and worked as a detective at Scotland Yard. He came to the U.S. with his wife and daughter in 1979 as an ordained minister in the United Church of Christ and served as a minister in Broad Brook, Connecticutt for 12 years. He is retired and he and his wife divide their time between their home in the Lakes Area and Mesa, Arizona.
